Key Factors Driving ALL Market Growth

• Increasing Use of Immunotherapy: The incorporation of blinatumomab, inotuzumab and CAR-T therapies is expanding treatment options beyond conventional chemotherapy, particularly in B-cell ALL and relapsed/refractory disease. Increasing clinical evidence is also supporting movement of immunotherapies into earlier lines of treatment.
• Growing Focus on MRD-Guided Treatment: MRD assessment is increasingly used to identify patients at elevated risk of relapse and to guide treatment intensification, immunotherapy and transplantation decisions. More sensitive molecular and NGS-based assays are supporting earlier detection of residual disease.
• Expansion of CAR-T Therapy: CD19-directed CAR-T therapies have become an important treatment modality for R/R B-cell ALL, while next-generation products are being investigated to improve persistence, safety, manufacturing time and accessibility. Allogeneic/off-the-shelf CAR-T approaches such as WU-CART-007 are extending this development into T-ALL.
• Increasing Molecular Stratification: Identification of BCR::ABL1, KMT2A rearrangements and other genomic abnormalities is increasingly determining therapy selection. This is creating opportunities for targeted agents such as TKIs and emerging menin inhibitors.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Disease Understanding and Treatment Algorithm

Leukemia is a term given to a group of cancers that develop in the blood and bone marrow. It originates in developing blood cells that have undergone a malignant change, which means they multiply in an uncontrolled manner, leaving them unformed and inoperative.

Leukemia can be either acute or chronic. In chronic leukemia, there is an accumulation of mature but abnormal white blood cells that have undergone a malignant change when developing from a blast cell. It progresses more slowly than acute leukemia and may not require treatment for a long time after it is diagnosed.

On the other hand, with acute leukemia, the diseased bone marrow produces an excessive number of abnormal blast cells, called leukemic cells. These cells accumulate in the bone marrow interfering with the production of normal blood cells. Acute leukemia develops and progresses quickly, and therefore, needs to be treated as soon as it is detected.

Typical forms of acute leukemia include acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), and acute promyelocytic leukemia (APML).

Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), also known as acute lymphoblastic leukemia, is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It starts from young white blood cells called lymphocytes in the bone marrow; mainly characterized by an overproduction of immature white blood cells, called lymphoblasts or leukemic blasts. Because the bone marrow is unable to make adequate numbers of red cells, normal white cells, and platelets, people with ALL become more susceptible to anemia, recurrent infections, and to bruising and bleeding easily. The blast cells can then spill out of the bone marrow into the bloodstream and accumulate in various organs including the lymph nodes or glands, spleen, liver, and central nervous system (brain and spinal cord).

ALL is mainly classified into B-cell and T-cell ALL. ALL can occur at any age but is more common in young children (0–14 years) and it develops quickly, around 54% of ALL cases in US diagnosed among people aged <20 years. Among children, B-cell lineage ALL constitutes approximately 88% of cases. Among adults, B-cell lineage represents around 75% of cases.

Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia Diagnosis 

Certain signs and symptoms can suggest that a person might have ALL, but tests are needed to confirm the diagnosis. During the physical exam, the doctor usually focus on any enlarged lymph nodes, areas of bleeding or bruising, or possible signs of infection. The eyes, mouth, and skin will be looked at carefully, and a thorough nervous system exam may be done. The patient’s abdomen will be checked for spleen or liver enlargement.

If there is reason to think low levels of blood cells might be causing symptoms (anemia, infections, bleeding or bruising, etc.), the doctor will most likely order blood tests to check blood cell counts. The patient might also be referred to a hematologist doctor who specializes in diseases of the blood, including leukemia.

The diagnosis of ALL is mainly done by Blood test (complete blood count (CBC) and peripheral blood smear, blood chemistry tests, blood coagulation tests), Bone marrow test (bone marrow aspiration and biopsy), Lab tests (routine exams with a microscope, cytochemistry tests, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry), Chromosome tests (fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), polymerase chain reaction (PCR)), Imaging tests (computerized Tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Scan, and staging). 

Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia Treatment 

ALL is a malignant clonal disease that usually develops when a lymphoid progenitor cell turns into genetically altered through somatic changes and goes through uncontrolled proliferation. This progression of clonal expansion further leads to ALL. However, common treatment of ALL divided into distinct phases such as Induction therapy, Consolidation therapy, Maintenance therapy, and Preventive treatment to the spinal cord, among others.

• Induction Therapy - The main purpose of the first phase of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treatment is to kill most of the leukemia cells in the bone marrow and blood also to restore normal blood cell production.
• Consolidation Therapy - Consolidation therapy is also known as post-remission therapy. The main purpose of this therapy is to completely wipe out remaining leukemia in the body, such as in the brain or spinal cord. Consolidation therapy is also known as post-remission therapy.
• Maintenance Therapy - This is known as the third phase of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treatment, which prevents leukemia cells from regrowth. However, the treatment used in this stage is often given at much lesser doses for a long period, often years.
• Preventive treatment to the spinal cord - In this phase of therapy, a patient suffering from ALL may receive additional treatment from killing leukemia cells which are located in the central nervous system. Also, in this type of treatment phase chemotherapy drugs are often injected directly into the fluid that covers the spinal cord.

The therapies that are approved for the Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treatment are Blincyto (blinatumomab/MT 103), Kymriah {CTL019 (tisagenlecleucel)}, Besponsa (inotuzumab ozogamicin), Iclusig (Ponatinib), among others.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Market Outlook

Chemotherapy is often complex and intense, particularly in the initial months of treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. The most common Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treatment regimens use a combination of more than one anticancer drug. It is broken down into three phases: induction phase, consolidation (or intensification) phase, and maintenance phase. Induction is the first phase of chemotherapy, and the goal of this phase is to induce a remission. In this phase, numerous Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia drugs are usually being used depending on the patient’s age, the specific features of leukemia, and the overall health of the patient. Induction regimens for ALL generally use a combination of drugs that include vincristine; anthracyclines (daunorubicin, doxorubicin); and corticosteroids (prednisone, dexamethasone) administered either with or without asparaginase and/or cyclophosphamide. Even after the complete remission, some leukemia cells still remain in the body. The presence of these cells is referred to as “minimal residual disease (MRD).” Patients who have MRD, are at increased risk of disease relapse. After a patient achieves a complete remission, postremission therapy is given to kill every remaining leukemia cell in the body.

Oftentimes when residual leukemia cells remain after remission, so the optimal treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia patients requires additional intensive postremission therapy. The second phase of chemotherapy is called consolidation therapy. The combination of drugs and the duration of therapy for consolidation regimens vary but can consist of combinations of drugs similar to those drugs used during the induction phase. Some drugs which are used in this phase are High-dose methotrexate, Cytarabine, Vincristine, 6-mercaptopurine, Blincyto, Besponsa, Cyclophosphamide, Asparaginase, and Corticosteroids (prednisone, and dexamethasone). The third phase of ALL treatment is called “maintenance phase.” The goal of maintenance therapy is to prevent disease relapse after induction and consolidation therapy. Most maintenance regimens include 6-mercaptopurine, Methotrexate, Vincristine, Corticosteroids, and Intrathecal chemotherapy.

At present several pharmaceutical companies are working for the development of novel approach to treat this condition. Key players like KTE-X19 (Gilead Sciences), UCART19 (Servier/Allogene), Lisocabtagene Maraleucel/JCAR017 (Bristol-Myers Squibb), Venetoclax/Venclexta/ABT199/RG7601 (AbbVie and Roche), JZP-458/PF743/recombinant Erwinia asparaginase (Jazz Pharmaceuticals), Daratumumab (Janssen Research & Development), Imbruvica/Ibrutinib {Pharmacyclics (an AbbVie Company)}, AUTO1 (Autolus Limited), PBCAR0191 (Precision BioSciences/Servier), and others.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Pipeline Development Activities

Access and Reimbursement Scenario in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Therapies 

• Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is a type of cancer that develops in white blood cells. Over the last few years, the treatment paradigm of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is changed due to the launch of a number of therapies that have improved treatment outcomes for patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia such as Blincyto and Besponsa; and the first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells for relapsed/refractory pediatric and young adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia patients, namely Kymriah. However, chemotherapies are highly effective and remain the backbone of frontline Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia treatment.
• The market access and reimbursement of advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) (e.g., Kymriah) is difficult due to its high cost, but these therapies offer ground-breaking new opportunities for the treatment of disease. Two thousand nineteen (2019) was a milestone year for CAR-T cell therapy as the product’ manufacturer Novartis (Kymriah) managed to successfully obtain reimbursement in many key countries. The launch of kymriah was highly anticipated by patients, medical professionals, healthcare system stakeholders such as Health Technology Assessment (HTA) bodies and payers, as well as by the wider pharmaceutical industry.
• In France, Kymriah was made available to French patients prior to their European MA through the early access program ‘Temporary Authorisation for Use’ (Autorisation Temporaire d’Utilisation, [ATU]). The ATU route provides reimbursed access before MA approval to therapies that hold particular therapeutic promise and are not currently available through clinical trials in France. After MA, the drug is reimbursed as ‘post-ATU’ until reimbursement and pricing decisions are finalized. During the ATU/post-ATU period, the manufacturers set the drug price freely, however, the pricing committee sets a maximum price per unit. In addition, drugs with annual pre-tax revenue exceeding Euro 30 million under the ATU/post-ATU period are subject to spending caps, above which manufacturers are liable to pay rebates.
