Long-Term Outcome of Ruxolitinib
Treatment in Patients With
Myelofibrosis: Durable Reductions in
Spleen Volume, Improvements in
Quality of Life, and Overall Survival
Advantage in COMFORT-I
Abstract 800
COMFORT-I
Background
•Placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, phase III study
•Ruxolitinib starting doses:
– Baseline platelet count 100-200×109
/L: 15 mg BID
– Baseline platelet count >200×109
/L: 20 mg BID
•Doses individually titrated based on safety and efficacy
•Ruxolitinib treatment significantly reduced spleen size and improved
myelofibrosis (MF_-related symptoms and QoL and was also
associated with a survival advantage relative to placebo1
Objective
•To describe long-term efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib with 1 year of
additional follow-up beyond previously published data (median
follow-up ~24 months)

• All patients receiving placebo at the primary analysis crossed over or discontinued
within 3 months of the primary analysis
• Median time to crossover: 41.1 weeks
Spleen Volume Reduction
• Majority of ruxolitinib-treated patients maintained a spleen volume reduction
• Majority of crossover patients experienced spleen volume reduction relative to
original baseline (median follow-up on ruxolitinib: ~14 months)
– Lesser degree of reduction likely because these patients experienced a period of spleen
growth on placebo before starting ruxolitinib

  • 3. COMFORT-I Background •Placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, phase III study •Ruxolitinib starting doses: – Baseline platelet count 100-200×109 /L: 15 mg BID – Baseline platelet count >200×109 /L: 20 mg BID •Doses individually titrated based on safety and efficacy •Ruxolitinib treatment significantly reduced spleen size and improved myelofibrosis (MF_-related symptoms and QoL and was also associated with a survival advantage relative to placebo1 Objective •To describe long-term efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib with 1 year of additional follow-up beyond previously published data (median follow-up ~24 months) 3 Data cutoff for current analysis: March 1, 2012. 1.

  • 5. Spleen Volume Reduction • Majority of ruxolitinib-treated patients maintained a spleen volume reduction • Majority of crossover patients experienced spleen volume reduction relative to original baseline (median follow-up on ruxolitinib: ~14 months) – Lesser degree of reduction likely because these patients experienced a period of spleen growth on placebo before starting ruxolitinib 5 Primary Analysis (Week 24)1 (Median follow-up ~7 months)* 80 60 40 0 -80 ChangeFromBaseline,% Individual Patients -20 20 -40 -60 35% Decrease Ruxolitinib (n = 154) Placebo (n = 153) -100 Last Available Measurement† (Median follow-up ~24 months)* 80 60 40 0 -80 ChangeFromBaseline,% Individual Patients -20 20 -40 -60 Ruxolitinib (n = 154) Crossover (n = 111) -100 35% Decrease *Median follow-up for patients originally randomized to ruxolitinib †Change from baseline to last available spleen volume measurement 1.

Editor's Notes

  • #5: 12/7/12: T_14_1_99_1_1_351DISP01 and T_14_1_99_1_2_351DISP02 Median time to crossover from ASH 2011 COMFORT-I subgroups presentation
  • #6: Second figure: F_14_4_99_42_3_351SPV_WATERF03 Mean reduction in spleen volume: Week 24 = 31.6%; Week 96 = 34.9% Note 1: The SV from an unscheduled visit, which was closest to Week 24 (Days 168) and was within the window of 168±28 days, was used if the patient missed the scheduled SV measurement; particularly, this method was implemented for all crossover patients. Note 2: Placebo = data collected during placebo treatment; for crossover patients, post-crossover data were excluded. Note 3: Ruxolitinib After Crossover = post-crossover data using the last value prior to the first ruxolitinib dose as the baseline. Note 4: The n-value is the number of intent-to-treat patients used as the denominator.
  • #8: 12/7/12: F_14_4_99_38_5_351DOR_UPDATE5 Note 1: The duration was defined only for those patients who had at least one measurement of ≥35% reduction prior to spleen progression. Note 2: Ruxolitinib After Crossover = post-crossover data using the last value prior to the first ruxolitinib dose as the baseline.
