During the European Hematology Association 2024 Hybrid Congress, Andreas Reiter shared 3-year follow up data from the phase II PATHFINDER study of avapritinib for the treatment of patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis (AdvSM). |
Key learnings |
The overall response and complete response rates were numerically higher in the treatment-naïve setting (87% and 43%, respectively) vs in patients with ≥1 prior systemic therapy (66% and 21%, respectively). |
Median overall survival (OS) was not reached, regardless of AdvSM subtype or treatment history. |
The 36-month OS rate was 75%, with more favorable data for the treatment-naïve vs pre-treated cohort. |
No new safety concerns were identified during the follow up period, with most adverse events manageable with dose reduction or interruption. |
Data from PATHFINDER suggest avapritinib as a feasible treatment option in AdvSM, particularly in early lines of therapy. |
