Yamasaki S. Appropriate Treatment Intensity for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma in the Older Population: A Review of the Literature. Hematol Rep 2024; 16:317-330. [PMID: 38921180 PMCID: PMC11204029 DOI: 10.3390/hematolrep16020032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Most patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are >65 years of age, with the number of patients expected to increase in the coming years. A comprehensive geriatric assessment that carefully evaluates fitness status and comorbidities is essential for selecting the appropriate treatment intensity. Although generally healthy patients or those <80 years of age may benefit from standard immunochemotherapy, unfit/frail patients or patients >80 years old may require reduced-intensity chemotherapy or less-toxic drugs. Some new drugs are currently being tested as single or combined agents for first-line treatment, aiming to improve the outcomes of conventional chemotherapy. This review systematically collates and discusses the outcomes associated with the use of immunochemotherapy in older patients with DLBCL, as well as considering the impact of full-dose immunochemotherapy on quality of life in older and frail patients, summarizing the rationale for reduced dosing in the older population, and presenting recommendations for selecting patients likely to benefit from reduced dosing. If preliminary efficacy and safety data are confirmed in future clinical trials, non-chemotherapy-based immunotherapy approaches could become an alternative potentially curative option in frail patients and those >80 years of age with DLBCL.

Su H, Jia J, Mao Y, Zhu R, Li Z. A real-world analysis of FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) events for liposomal and conventional doxorubicins. Sci Rep 2024; 14:5095. [PMID: 38429374 PMCID: PMC10907704 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-55185-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The clinical application of conventional doxorubicin (CDOX) was constrained by its side effects. Liposomal doxorubicin was developed to mitigate these limitations, showing improved toxicity profiles. However, the adverse events associated with liposomal doxorubicin and CDOX have not yet been comprehensively evaluated in clinical settings. The FAERS data from January 2004 to December 2022 were collected to analyze the adverse events of liposomal doxorubicin and CDOX. Disproportionate analysis and Bayesian analysis were employed to quantify this association. Our analysis incorporated 68,803 adverse event reports related to Doxil/Caelyx, Myocet and CDOX. The relative odds ratios (RORs, 95%CI) for febrile neutropenia associated with CDOX, Doxil/Caelyx, and Myocet were 42.45 (41.44; 43.48), 17.53 (16.02; 19.20), and 34.68 (26.63; 45.15) respectively. For cardiotoxicity, they were 38.87(36.41;41.49), 17.96 (14.10; 22.86), and 37.36 (19.34; 72.17). For Palmar-Plantar Erythrodysesthesia (PPE), the RORs were 6.16 (5.69; 6.68), 36.13 (32.60; 40.06), and 19.69 (11.59; 33.44). Regarding onset time, significant differences adverse events including neutropenia, PPE, pneumonia and malignant neoplasm progression. This study indicates that clinical monitoring for symptoms of cardiotoxicity of CDOX and Myocet, and PPE and interstitial lung disease of Doxil should be performed. Additionally, the onset time of febrile neutropenia, malignant neoplasm progression, and pneumonia associated with Doxil and Myocet merits particular attention. Continuous surveillance, risk evaluations, and additional comparative studies between liposomal doxorubicin and CDOX were recommended.

Evaluation of cardiotoxicity of anthracycline-containing chemotherapy regimens in patients with bone and soft tissue sarcomas: A study of the FDA adverse event reporting system joint single-center real-world experience. Cancer Med 2023; 12:21709-21724. [PMID: 38054208 PMCID: PMC10757145 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the occurrence of cardiotoxicity in patients with tumors receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy, especially for sarcomas. METHODS This study summarized the types and frequency of adverse events (AEs) for three anthracyclines from the FDA adverse event reporting system (FAERS) database. FAERS data from January 2004 to June 2022 were collected and analyzed. Disproportionality analyses, logistic regression, and descriptive analysis were used to compare the differences in cardiac disorders. A retrospective cohort study was conducted in a single center between December 2008 and May 2022. Our hospital-treated patients with bone and soft tissue sarcomas (BSTSs) with anthracycline-containing chemotherapy were analyzed. Serum markers, echocardiography, and electrocardiography have been used to evaluate cardiotoxic events. RESULTS One hundred thousand and seventy-five AE reports were obtained for doxorubicin (ADM), epirubicin (EPI), and liposome doxorubicin (L-ADM) from the FAERS database. ADM (OR = 3.1, p < 0.001), EPI (OR = 1.5, p < 0.001), and sarcomas (OR = 1.8, p < 0.001) may increase the probability of cardiac disorders. Cardiac failure, cardiotoxicity, and cardiomyopathy were anthracyclines' top 3 frequent AEs. Among patients receiving ADM-containing therapy, those with ADM applied at doses ≥75 mg/m2 /cycle were more likely to develop cardiac disorders than the other subgroups (OR = 3.5, p < 0.001). Patients younger than 18 are more likely to benefit from dexrazoxane prevention of cardiac failure. Six hundred and eighty-three patients with BSTSs receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy were analyzed in our center. Patients receiving ADM-containing chemotherapy were likelier to experience abnormalities in serum troponin-T and left ventricular ejection fraction (p < 0.05). 2.0% (6/300) of patients receiving ADM-containing chemotherapy required adjustment of the chemotherapy regimen because of cardiotoxicity, whereas none were in the EPI or L-ADM groups. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Among patients receiving anthracycline-containing therapy, patients with BSTSs were more likely to develop cardiac disorders than other tumors. In addition, patients with BSTSs receiving ADM chemotherapy had a higher likelihood of cardiotoxic events than those receiving EPI or L-ADM.

Abstract
Rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) is the most commonly used regimen for the upfront treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, it is associated with cardiotoxicity, especially in older patients. Substituting doxorubicin with non-PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin (R-COMP) may reduce the risk of cardiac events, but its efficacy has never been demonstrated in prospective trials. We describe the characteristics and outcome of patients with DLBCL aged ≥65 years prospectively enrolled in the Elderly Project by the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi and treated with full doses of R-CHOP or R-COMP per local practice. Starting from 1163 patients, 383 (55%) were treated with R-CHOP and 308 (45%) with R-COMP. Patients treated with R-COMP were older (median age, 76 vs 71 years), less frequently fit at simplified geriatric assessment (61% vs 88%; P < .001), and had a more frequent baseline cardiac disorders (grade >1, 32% vs 8%; P < .001). Three-year progression-free survival (PFS) was similar between R-CHOP and R-COMP (70% and 64%); 3-year overall survival was 77%, and 71% respectively. R-CHOP was associated with better PFS vs R-COMP only in the Elderly Prognostic Index (EPI) low-risk group. The two groups had similar rates of treatment interruptions due to toxicities or of cardiac events (P = 1.00). We suggest R-COMP is a potentially curative treatment for older patients with intermediate- or high-risk EPI, even in the presence of a baseline cardiopathy. R-CHOP is confirmed as the standard therapy for low risk patients.

Abstract
Most patients with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) are old (>65 years of age) and this population is expected to increase in the following years. A simplified geriatric assessment based on a careful evaluation of the fitness status and comorbidities is essential to choose the correct intensity of treatment. Fit older patients can benefit from a standard immunochemotherapy, while unfit/frail patients frequently need reduced doses or substitution of particular agents with less toxic ones. This review focuses on new therapies (e.g., polatuzumab vedotin, tafasitamab, bispecific antibodies) that have indicated promising results in relapsed/refractory patients, particularly in cases not eligible to transplant. Some of these new drugs have been tested as single agents or in combinations as first-line treatment, aiming to improve the outcome of the traditional chemotherapy. If preliminary efficacy and safety data are confirmed in future clinical trials, a chemo-free immunotherapic approach could become an alternative option to offer a curative treatment even in frail patients.

Abstract
Background The incidence of DLBCL in elderly patients has been gradually increased. Considering their comorbidities and performance status, the first-line standard treatment hasn't been determined for the elderly. Methods We performed a systemic review and network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of all eligible regimens as first line treatment for elderly patients with DLBCL. We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase Library proceedings up to March 2022. Results Our search yielded thirteen trials including 1839 patients. R2CHOP21 showed the best PFS with a statistical difference and the most favorable OS without a statistical difference. RCOMP showed the most clinical benefits in EFS, CR and OR with no significant difference. The point estimate was in favored improved DFS with RCHOP14 than RCHOP21, although this was not statistically significant. In a subgroup analysis concerning 3-4 grade AEs revealed R-COMP was associated with a decrease in grade III/IV neutropenia and cardiac toxic events; RminiCEOP was associated with the lower rates of 3-4 grade anemia, thrombocytopenia and infection; RCHOP21 had the lowest rate of 3-4 grade AE of neurotoxicity. Conclusion The findings of our meta-analysis indicated that R2CHOP21 provided the best disease control in PFS and represented an optimal first-line treatment option in the elderly with DLBCL. Furthermore, RCOMP, RminiCEOP and RCHOP21 exhibited lower rates in different 3-4 grade AEs and might be reasonable treatment options in the elderly with poor general conditions.

Abstract
We conducted a single-center retrospective study to assess cardiovascular (CV) toxicity and treatment discontinuation for CV toxicity in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma (FL) patients treated with immunochemotherapy (R-CHOP-like). Between 2006 and 2017, 433 patients were included (DLBCL: n = 345, FL: n = 88). The median age was 63 years (50-73). We defined three types of CV toxicity: early-onset cardiovascular toxicity (the event occurred within 6 months following treatment start); subacute toxicity (the event occurred between 6 months and 1 year after treatment start) and late toxicity (the event occurred 1 year or more after treatment start). Forty-eight (11.1%) patients experienced at least one anthracycline-related CV event. Seven patients experienced treatment discontinuation due to CV toxicity. Early-onset and subacute cardiac events were primarily acute heart failure (34.3%) and atrial fibrillation (28.6%). History of ischemic heart disease (p = 0.02) and valvular heart disease (p = 0.03) were associated with a higher risk of anthracycline-related CV event occurrence.

Abstract
Simple Summary Fatigue in older patients has multiple etiologies, as this symptom may be cancer-related, treatment-related, age-related, or part of frailty syndrome. Physicians need to identify this symptom and understand its risk factors but also evaluate the risk/benefit ratio of cancer treatments considering the risk of impairing the patient’s quality of life. This scoping review was aimed to present the level of information currently available on any-grade fatigue and grade 3 or more fatigue for each cancer treatment regimen, either in general or in older populations, for the most prevalent tumors. Abstract Fatigue is a highly prevalent symptom in both cancer patients and the older population, and it contributes to quality-of-life impairment. Cancer treatment-related fatigue should thus be included in the risk/benefit assessment when introducing any treatment, but tools are lacking to a priori estimate such risk. This scoping review was designed to report the current evidence regarding the frequency of fatigue for the different treatment regimens proposed for the main cancer indications, with a specific focus on age-specific data, for the following tumors: breast, ovary, prostate, urothelium, colon, lung and lymphoma. Fatigue was most frequently reported using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) versions 3 to 5. A total of 324 regimens were analyzed; data on fatigue were available for 217 (67%) of them, and data specific to older patients were available for 35 (11%) of them; recent pivotal trials have generally reported more fatigue grades than older studies, illustrating increasing concern over time. This scoping review presents an easy-to-understand summary that is expected to provide helpful information for shared decisions with patients regarding the anticipation and prevention of fatigue during each cancer treatment.

Targeted Drug Delivery and Theranostic Strategies in Malignant Lymphomas. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14030626. [PMID: 35158894 PMCID: PMC8833783 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14030626] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The concept of targeted drug delivery (TDD) represents an innovative and effective treatment approach, which was developed with an attempt to minimize damage toward healthy tissues. Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) with radioimmunoconjugates and TDD with antibody–drug conjugates (ADC) both represent drug delivery systems (DDS) based on monoclonal antibody-mediated delivery of toxic payloads toward the lymphoma tissue. Other modalities of TDD are based on new formulations of “old” cytostatic agents and their passive trapping in the tumor bulk by means of enhanced permeability and retention (EPH) effect. These comprise several clinically approved liposomal formulations of anthracyclines and many investigational nanomedicines including pegylated and non-pegylated liposomes, or polymer-based nanoparticles. Currently, the diagnostic and restaging procedures in aggressive lymphomas are based on nuclear imaging, predominantly on 2-[F18] fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET). On a preclinical level, it has been repeatedly demonstrated that the assessment of response and therapy delivery can be fused. Such a theranostic approach that would combine the diagnostic or restaging imaging procedure with a targeted therapy represents an appealing innovative strategy in personalized medicine in hemato-oncology. Abstract Malignant lymphomas represent the most common type of hematologic malignancies. The first clinically approved TDD modalities in lymphoma patients were anti-CD20 radioimmunoconjugates (RIT) 131I-tositumomab and 90Y-ibritumomab-tiuxetan. The later clinical success of the first approved antibody–drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of lymphomas, anti-CD30 brentuximab vedotin, paved the path for the preclinical development and clinical testing of several other ADCs, including polatuzumab vedotin and loncastuximab tesirine. Other modalities of TDD are based on new formulations of “old” cytostatic agents and their passive trapping in the lymphoma tissue by means of the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Currently, the diagnostic and restaging procedures in aggressive lymphomas are based on nuclear imaging, namely PET. A theranostic approach that combines diagnostic or restaging lymphoma imaging with targeted treatment represents an appealing innovative strategy in personalized medicine. The future of theranostics will require not only the capability to provide suitable disease-specific molecular probes but also expertise on big data processing and evaluation. Here, we review the concept of targeted drug delivery in malignant lymphomas from RIT and ADC to a wide array of passively and actively targeted nano-sized investigational agents. We also discuss the future of molecular imaging with special focus on monoclonal antibody-based and monoclonal antibody-derived theranostic strategies.

Abstract
Anthracycline-based chemoimmunotherapy with R-CHOP is the standard treatment for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) but is associated with increased risks of cardiotoxicity. The alternative regimen R-CEOP substitutes etoposide for doxorubicin and is commonly administered to DLBCL patients with cardiovascular comorbidities, although there is limited evidence supporting its use. This multicenter real-world study included 138 consecutive patients with newly-diagnosed DLBCL treated with R-CEOP and 414 patients treated with R-CHOP matched 1:3 for age and International Prognostic Index. With median follow-up time 4.6 years, R-CEOP was associated with significantly inferior 4-year progression-free survival (32 vs. 52%, p < 0.0001), overall survival (39 vs. 59%, p < 0.0001), and disease-specific survival (48 vs. 69%, p < 0.0001) compared to R-CHOP. R-CHOP should remain the preferred regimen for most patients with DLBCL. While R-CEOP may be a reasonable choice for patients strictly ineligible for anthracyclines, the inferior outcomes of this regimen suggest that this high-risk population requires novel therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Advances in the development of anti-tumour drugs and related technologies have resulted in a significant increase in the number of cancer survivors. However, the incidence of chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity (CIC) has been rising continuously, threatening their long-term survival. The integration of nanotechnology and biomedicine has brought about an unprecedented technological revolution and has promoted the progress of anti-tumour therapy. In this review, we summarised the possible mechanisms of CIC, evaluated the role of nanoparticles (including liposomes, polymeric micelles, dendrimers, and hydrogels) as drug carriers in preventing cardiotoxicity and proposed five advantages of nanotechnology in reducing cardiotoxicity: Liposomes cannot easily penetrate the heart's endothelial barrier; optimized delivery strategies reduce distribution in important organs, such as the heart; targeting the tumour microenvironment and niche; stimulus-responsive polymer nano-drug carriers rapidly iterate; better economic benefits were obtained. Nanoparticles can effectively deliver chemotherapeutic drugs to tumour tissues, while reducing the toxicity to heart tissues, and break through the dilemma of existing chemotherapy to a certain extent. It is important to explore the interactions between the physicochemical properties of nanoparticles and optimize the highly specific tumour targeting strategy in the future.

Efficacy of R-COMP in comparison to R-CHOP in patients with DLBCL: A systematic review and single-arm metanalysis. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2021; 163:103377.

Abstract
Doxorubicin represents the mainstay in the upfront treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. However, its administration is sometimes hampered by the coexistence of former comorbidities/cardiac issues, especially in the elderly population. Liposome encapsulated drug delivery systems have been adopted to reduce the exposure of normal tissues to the drug, both in solid cancers and lymphomas. Despite claims for lower toxicity, the efficacy of non-pegylated liposome doxorubicin (NPLD) in DLBCL, as compared to standard doxorubicin, has never been established. We systematically reviewed relevant literature of NPLD in lymphoma treatment. Adjusting for age/comorbidities, our metanalysis revealed that the use of combinations including NPLD (R-COMP) were non-inferior in terms of response, overall and progression-free survival to the standard of care (R-CHOP) in overlapping series of DLBCL patients. R-COMP may represent a safe and active option for elderly patients with DLBCL, or for those with some extent of cardiac impairment at baseline.
