Therapeutic value

Current treatment options

For patients with MLN with FGFR1 rearrangement in chronic phase, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) US-guidelines identify enrolment in clinical trials as the preferred treatment option. In the absence of a clinical trial, the current recommended approach is monotherapy with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with activity against FGFR1.The NCCN guidelines list pemigatinib, midostaurin, and ponatinib as TKIs with activity against FGFR1. However, none of these drugs (except pemigatinib in US) have been approved for the treatment of MLN with FGFR1 rearrangement.

Substantiation

De laatste resultaten van de FIGHT-203 studie (2022 ASH) lieten in patiënten met een FGFR-1 mutatie in patiënten, 28 (73,7%) een complete klinische respons zien (CR; primary endpoint). De mate van cytogenetische respons (CCyR) was 70,0% (n=28/40). De CRs en CCyRs in eerder behandelde patiënten was, 75,8% (n=25/33) en 71.4% (n=25/35), De mediane behandeltijd met pemigatinib was 6,3 maanden (range: 0.5-50.2).

Additional remarks
Latest results of the FIGHT-203 study (presented at 2022 ASH) showed in treatment naïve or previously treated patients with MLN with FGFR-1 rearrangements: Of 38 evaluable patients, 28 (73.7%) achieved a clinical complete response (CR; primary endpoint). The rate of complete cytogenetic responses (CCyR) was 70.0% (n=28/40). The rates of CRs and CCyRs in previously treated, efficacy-evaluable patients were 75.8% (n=25/33) and 71.4% (n=25/35), respectively. Of 21 patients with chronic phase (CP) disease, 18 (85.7%) exhibited both clinical CRs and CCyRs. Of 17 patients with blast phase (BP) disease, 9 presented with clinical CRs (52.9%), and 8 (47.1%) with CCyRs. The median exposure to pemigatinib treatment was 6.3 months (range: 0.5-50.2).

Expected patient volume per year

Patient volume

< 180

Market share is generally not included unless otherwise stated.

Additional remarks
MLN met FGFR1 mutatie is zeldzaam. De incidentie is ongeveer <1 op de 100.000 personen per jaar. Omgerekend naar Nederland zou dit betekenen dat er hooguit 180 mensen in aanmerking zullen komen. Er moet eerst een diagnostische test afgenomen worden om vast te stellen dat de patiënt de mutatie heeft.
