There is limited clinical guidance on the preferred treatment of adult R/R B-Cell ALL. Currently, there are no randomized head-to-head trials comparing efficacy of blinatumomab and inotuzumab ozogamicin. Clinical patterns of blinatumomab resistance has been reported. Our case study remains unclear of why our patient had unsuccessful outcomes with blinatumomab regardless of having CD19 positivity of 100%. Future prospective analysis and comparative studies are needed to determine proper sequencing of these therapies.
