Pivotal phase III SIERRA trial data showing 100% bone marrow transplant engraftment in patients treated with Iomab-B presented at the 2021 virtual SNMMI conference.- Actinium Pharmaceuticals.
The SIERRA trial is the only randomized Phase III trial to offer potentially curative BMT as an option for patients with active, relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (r/r AML) age 55 and above, a patient population not considered eligible for BMT with standard non-targeted conditioning regimens. SNMMI Presentation Title: "Relationship of Marrow Radiation Dose and Timing of Engraftment for Targeted Radioimmunotherapy with Anti-CD45 Iodine (131I) Apamistamab [Iomab-B] in Patients with Active Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia" : Presenter: Susan Passalaqua, MD, Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center. SNMMI Presentation Highlights : i. 100% BMT and engraftment rate for patients receiving a therapeutic dose of Iomab-B compared to 18% of patients receiving physician's choice of salvage therapy on the control arm. ii.79% of all patients enrolled on SIERRA were able to proceed to BMT despite being a patient population not considered eligible for BMT with standard approaches. iii. Iomab-B delivers high amounts of targeted radiation to the bone marrow with minimal impact on other organs resulting in lower rates and severity of adverse events.
