Ofatumumab as part of reduced intensity conditioning in high risk B-cell lymphoma patients: final long-term analysis from a prospective multicenter Phase-II Trial. Bone Marrow Transplant 2024; 59:359-365. [PMID: 38167647 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-023-02171-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
Curative potential of allogeneic transplantation (AlloSCT) in high-risk non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) could be enhanced by the integration of Ofatumumab (OFA), a 2nd generation anti-CD20 moAb, due to an antitumor effect and a role over graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In this phase II trial (NCT01613300), we investigated safety and effectiveness of OFA-based reduced intensity conditioning (RIC). High-risk B-cell NHL patients with chemorrefractory disease or post-autologous SCT relapse were eligible. OFA was added to a standard RIC regimen. Primary endpoint was grade 3-4 aGVHD rate, while secondary endpoints included CR and survival rates. Thirty-three patients were included (median age 51; diffuse large B-cell:68%, HLA-identical donor: 74%). No grade >2 OFA toxicity was observed. Acute GVHD affected 77% of patients (16% grade 3-4). Remarkably, GVHD achieved CR in 75% of patients after first-line treatment. Chronic GVHD, primarily mild or moderate, occurred in 54% of patients. NHL CR rate at day +100 was 81%. Relapses occurred in 7 patients after a median of 3 months. Causes of death were lymphoma progression (5), infections (10), and GVHD (2). At 24 months, progression-free and overall survival rates were 50.1 and 51.6% respectively. OFA-RIC regimen is safe and effective, though acute GVHD remains a significant complication. However, data suggest that OFA could mitigate its severity.

Results of a Phase II Trial of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Using 90Y-Ibritumomab Tiuxetan (Zevalin) in Combination With Fludarabine and Melphalan in Patients With High-Risk B-Cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2023; 23:e268-e276. [PMID: 37301631 PMCID: PMC10524945 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2023.05.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) is potentially curative for relapsed/refractory (r/r) B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-cell NHL). However, relapse remains a major cause of treatment failure, especially in patients with either positron emission tomography (PET)-positive and/or chemoresistant disease prior to alloHCT. 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin) is a radiolabeled anti-CD20 antibody which is a safe and effective therapy in multiple histologic subtypes of B-cell NHL and has also been incorporated in both autologous HCT (autoHCT) and alloHCT conditioning regimens. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and confirm the safety of the radiolabeled anti-CD20 antibody ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin) combined with the reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen of fludarabine and melphalan (Flu/Mel) in patients with high-risk B-cell NHL. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a phase II trial (NCT00577278) of Zevalin with Flu/Mel in patients with high-risk B-cell NHL. We enrolled 41 patients from October 2007 to April 2014, all of whom had either a fully matched sibling or 8/8 or 7/8 matched unrelated donor (MUD). Patients received 111In-Zevalin (5.0 mCi) on day -21 pre-HCT, followed by 90Y-Zevalin (0.4 mCi/kg) on day -14. Fludarabine (25 mg/m2 daily) was given from days -9 to -5 and melphalan (140 mg/m2) was administered on day -4. All patients received rituximab 250 mg/m2 on day +8 and an additional dose on either day +1 or -21 depending on the baseline rituximab level. Patients with a low rituximab level were given rituximab on days -21 and -15. All patients received tacrolimus/sirolimus (T/S) with or without methotrexate (MTX) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis starting on day -3, and stem cells were infused on day 0. RESULTS The 2-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) for all patients were 63% and 61%, respectively. The incidence of relapse at 2 years was 20%. Nonrelapse mortality (NRM) at day +100 and 1 year were 5% and 12%, respectively. The overall cumulative incidence of grade II-IV and III-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) were 44% and 15%, respectively. Extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) occurred in 44% of patients. On univariate analysis, histology (diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) vs. others) was negatively predictive for OS (P = .0013) and PFS (P = .0004), while histology (DLBCL vs. others, P = .0128) predicted for relapse. PET positivity pre-HCT did not correlate with any of the efficacy endpoints. CONCLUSION Addition of Zevalin to Flu/Mel is safe and effective in high-risk NHL and met the prespecific endpoint. Results were suboptimal in patients with DLBCL.

Sezgin MG, Bektas H. A retrospective study of treatment and outcomes of patients with lymphoma undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: A single-center experience. Transpl Immunol 2023; 79:101855. [PMID: 37201796 DOI: 10.1016/j.trim.2023.101855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early evaluation of symptoms and taking appropriate preventive measures can improve outcomes for patients with lymphoma undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This study aimed to examine the treatment and outcomes of patients with lymphoma undergoing HSCT. METHODS Patients with lymphoma undergoing SCT at a university hospital between 15.06.2018 and 15.06.2020, were selected for a retrospective study. The medical treatments of patients were obtained from the records on the Hospital Information Management System (HIMS) database. The study was reported following the STROBE checklist. RESULTS Sixty-four patients were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 48.25 ± 16.93 (p = 0.76). Although relapse developed in 26 (40.6%) patients with lymphoma, remission was achieved in 38 (59.4%) patients. The incidence of skin graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) symptoms in patients with relapse [14(53.8%)] was found to be significantly higher than in patients in remission [4(10.5%)] (p < 0.001). The most common symptoms seen in patients undergoing HSCT were oral mucositis (78.1%), febrile neutropenia (68.8%), and anemia (56.3%). In the treatments applied after SCT, the administration of antifungal (p = 0.033), analgesic (p = 0.001), and anticoagulant (p = 0.008) treatments to the patients who were in remission compared with the relapsed patients was significant. Less courses (OR: 0.446; 95% CI: 0.22-0.907; p = 0.026), analgesic therapy (OR:6.22; 95% CI: 1.61-24.027; p = 0.008), and anticoagulant treatment (OR:7.13; %) 95 CI: 1.374-37.1; p = 0.019) were found to increase the risk of relapse. Because of the increase in the number of cures in SCT, the incidence of diarrhea (p = 0.016) and GIS GVHD (p = 0.022) was high. It was determined that the hospitalization period was shorter in patients with febrile neutropenia (p = 0.021), thrombocytopenia/bleeding (p = 0.031), and secretion (p = 0.036) symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Patients experienced severe symptoms such as oral mucositis, febrile neutropenia, and anemia due to HSCT, and necessary treatment was applied for the symptoms. Further clinical studies must determine the symptoms and patient outcomes associated with SCT. It is predicted that patients will benefit from regular follow-up of their symptoms and planning of appropriate evidence-based nursing interventions and that this will improve the quality of care to be offered to them and increase their life span.

PET/CT Evaluation of the Effect of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in the Treatment of T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:6057017. [PMID: 36072622 PMCID: PMC9398827 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6057017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical value of positron emission tomography/computerized tomography scanning (PET/CT) in the evaluation of the effect of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of T lymphoblastic lymphoma. 12 relevant research articles were collected through layer-by-layer screening in large databases such as Pubmed, Baidu Scholar, and China How Net, and analyzed and summarized using indicators such as progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), hazard ratio (HR), maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max), total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and β2-microglobulin (β2-MG). The results showed that before treatment, 18F-FDG PET/CT baseline diagnosis could accurately stage the patients; during treatment, 18F-FDG PET/CT detection could provide effective treatment information; and after treatment, complications were found during 18F-FDG PET/CT detection. In summary, 18F-FDG PET/CT can monitor and evaluate treatment prognosis at baseline, middle, and late stages, and 18F-FDG PET/CT has become an indispensable and important examination technique in clinical work.

Abstract
Double-hit lymphoma (DHL) is a rare type of aggressive B-cell lymphoma defined as a high-grade B-cell lymphoma (HGBCL) with the presence of MYC, BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements. Patients usually present with rapidly progressive and advanced stage of disease and, commonly, with extranodal involvement. Typically, patients become refractory to standard R-CHOP, and more aggressive regimens such as DA-EPOCH-R, R-hyperCVAD or CODOX-R regimens are typically needed. MYC is considered an “undruggable” mutation. Recent evidence suggests that pathogenic mechanisms associated with MYC could be potential targets. In this review, we also discuss the role of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in DHL. We also discuss the role of potential novel agents such as BCL2 inhibitors, checkpoint inhibitors, bromodomain and extraterminal (BET) family inhibitors, Pi3K inhibitors, and others.
