10523Background: The global ELIANA trial (NCT02435849) evaluates the efficacy and safety of CTL019, a single infusion of genetically modified autologous chimeric antigen receptor–expressing T cells targeting CD19+ cells in pediatric and young adult r/r B-ALL pts. Analyses show a complete response rate of 82% with or without complete blood count recovery ≤ 3 months. A serious adverse event rate of 71% was observed in ≤ 8 weeks of infusion, decreasing to 17% at > 8 weeks (Grupp S, et al. Blood. 2016;128(22) [abstract 221].). This analysis further evaluates the clinical benefit of CTL019. QOL was assessed before and after CTL019 infusion. Methods: Infused pts were 3-23 y/o with CD19+ B-ALL who were chemo refractory, relapsed after allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT), or otherwise ineligible for SCT. Pts ≥ 8 y completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) and EuroQol EQ-5D at baseline and following CTL019 infusion. Minimal clinically important differences are estimated to be 4.4 and 7 to 10 for...
