Safety and efficacy of parsaclisib in combination with rituximab, bendamustine + rituximab, or ibrutinib in patients with previously treated B-cell lymphoma: analysis of a phase 1 dose-finding study (CITADEL‑112)

Abstract

Parsaclisib, a potent and highly selective phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ inhibitor, has shown clinical activity in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell lymphoma. The phase 1 CITADEL-112 (NCT03424122) study assessed safety and efficacy of parsaclisib in combination with investigator choice standard of care (SOC; rituximab [Treatment A], rituximab plus bendamustine [Treatment B], or ibrutinib [Treatment C]) in 50 patients with R/R B-cell lymphoma. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events included neutropenia (62.5%, 50.0%, and 50.0% of patients in Treatments A, B, and C, respectively); diarrhea (37.5%) and anemia (31.3%) in Treatment A; abdominal pain, asthenia, diarrhea, and nausea (each 33.3%) in Treatment B; and increased alanine and aspartate aminotransferase (each 37.5%) in Treatment C. Objective responses were observed in 13 patients (81.3%) in Treatment A, 10 (55.6%) in Treatment B, and 8 (50.0%) in Treatment C. Parsaclisib combined with SOC therapies had an expected safety profile and promising efficacy in patients with R/R B-cell lymphomas.
