Abstract Details

An analysis of the relationship between cladribine dose and risk of malignancies in patients with multiple sclerosis
Multiple Sclerosis
P8 - Poster Session 8 (8:00 AM-9:00 AM)
9-011
To use data integrated from clinical trials and a safety follow-up registry (up to 5/2017) to further characterize malignancy risk of cladribine tablets (CT) in patients with MS and investigate dose-dependence.

Malignancy risk was previously characterized in a Monotherapy Oral cohort of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) treated with CT 10mg (3.5mg/kg cumulative dose over 2 years; CT3.5) including data up to 2/2015. In clinical studies, an imbalance in the number of malignancies with CT3.5 vs placebo (PBO) suggested malignancy risk may be increased.

Cohorts were Monotherapy Oral: patients with MS receiving CT as monotherapy; All exposed: patients with MS receiving any formulation of cladribine.
In the Monotherapy Oral cohort, patient numbers (patient–years [PY]) were: PBO N=641 (2275), CT3.5 N=923 (3754), CT 5.25 mg/kg (CT5.25) N=632 (2610). The incidence per 100PY for malignant tumors was: PBO: 0.13, CT3.5: 0.27 and CT5.25: 0.23. The risk difference vs PBO was: CT3.5: 0.14 and CT5.25: 0.10. In CLARITY CT3.5 (N=195) and CT5.25 (N=195) patients randomized to CT3.5 in CLARITY Extension, incidence per 100PY by CLARITY dose was: 0.55 (CT3.5, 1301PY) and 0.31 (CT5.25, 1286PY) for the entire follow-up; 0.91 (CT3.5, 790PY) and 0.52 (CT5.25, 784PY) for the period following treatment-initiation in year 3. In the All Exposed cohort (cladribine N=1976; PBO N=802) stratified by cumulative cladribine dose, the number of patients with a malignant event (incidence per 100PY) was: >0­–3.5 mg/kg = 6 (0.37), >3.5–5.25 = 14 (0.40), >5.25–7.0 = 6 (0.29), >7.0–8.75 = 6 (0.46), >8.75 = 2 (0.21). No hematological malignancies were observed.
There was no clear evidence of a dose effect of cladribine on malignancy risk in patients with MS based on >9500PY of exposure.
