Ng CS. From the midfacial destructive drama to the unfolding EBV story: a short history of EBV-positive NK-cell and T-cell lymphoproliferative diseases. Pathology 2024:S0031-3025(24)00181-8. [PMID: 39127542 DOI: 10.1016/j.pathol.2024.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous gammaherpesvirus that has been related to oncogenesis of lymphoid and epithelial malignancies. Although the mechanism of EBV infection of NK and T cells remains enigmatic, it plays a pathogenic role in various EBV+ NK-cell and T-cell lymphoproliferative diseases (LPDs), through promotion of cell activation pathways, inhibition of cell apoptotic pathways, behaving as oncogenes, interacting with host oncogenes or acting epigenetically. The study of NK-cell LPDs, previously hampered by the lack of immunophenotypical and genotypical criteria of NK cells, has become feasible with the recently accepted criteria. EBV+ NK- and T-cell LPDs are mostly of poor prognosis. This review delivers a short history from primeval to recent EBV+ NK- and T-cell LPDs in non-immunocompromised subjects, coupled with increasing interest, and work on the biological and oncogenic roles of EBV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sinonasal neoplasms, whether benign and malignant, pose a significant challenge to clinicians and represent a model area for multidisciplinary collaboration in order to optimize patient care. The International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Sinonasal Tumors (ICSNT) aims to summarize the best available evidence and presents 48 thematic and histopathology-based topics spanning the field. METHODS In accordance with prior International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology documents, ICSNT assigned each topic as an Evidence-Based Review with Recommendations, Evidence-Based Review, and Literature Review based on the level of evidence. An international group of multidisciplinary author teams were assembled for the topic reviews using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses format, and completed sections underwent a thorough and iterative consensus-building process. The final document underwent rigorous synthesis and review prior to publication. RESULTS The ICSNT document consists of four major sections: general principles, benign neoplasms and lesions, malignant neoplasms, and quality of life and surveillance. It covers 48 conceptual and/or histopathology-based topics relevant to sinonasal neoplasms and masses. Topics with a high level of evidence provided specific recommendations, while other areas summarized the current state of evidence. A final section highlights research opportunities and future directions, contributing to advancing knowledge and community intervention. CONCLUSION As an embodiment of the multidisciplinary and collaborative model of care in sinonasal neoplasms and masses, ICSNT was designed as a comprehensive, international, and multidisciplinary collaborative endeavor. Its primary objective is to summarize the existing evidence in the field of sinonasal neoplasms and masses.

Abstract
The staging, prognostication, and treatment of ENKTL has evolved over the years with better understanding of the disease biology. There is significant heterogeneity in the treatment followed across the world. Literature from India have been few with small number of patients. We studied the outcomes and prognostic factors of patients with ENKTL treated between May 2010 and December 2021 at our center. A total of 78 patients diagnosed with ENKTL were treated at our center. L-asparaginase based chemotherapy was administered in 84% of the patients. Close to 2/3rd patients received SMILE chemotherapy. After a median follow-up of 30 months (18.5-41.4 months), the median relapse free survival and overall survival for the overall population was 45 months (12-118 months) and 45 months (14-118 months) respectively. By multivariate analysis, PINK score of 2-4, non-receipt of RT and non-achievement of CR were associated with poor survival.

Abstract
Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type is a rare and aggressive form of lymphoma, historically associated with poor prognosis. We report here the results of a retrospective multi-centre study evaluating the efficacy of MGAD (methotrexate, gemcitabine, L-asparaginase and dexamethasone) regimen (two cycles) combined with 'sandwich' radiotherapy in 35 patients with localised newly diagnosed extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma. Thirty-two patients (91%) reached complete remission. With a long median follow-up of 59.6 months, progression-free and overall survival at 2 and 5 years were 71%, 80% and 53%, 73%, respectively. Around one third of the patients experienced relapse within a median time of 14.5 months. Side-effects were manageable with grades 3-4 cytopenias, mucositis and infection in 50%, 24% and 21% of the cases, respectively. Monitoring of asparaginase activity was performed in 13 patients and showed inactivation of the drug in seven (54%) patients. Our results indicate that a short therapy by sandwich MGAD chemoradiotherapy is a tolerable and effective treatment option in localised newly diagnosed extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma patients.

Abstract
Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL) is the most common subtype of T/NK-cell lymphoma in Asia and Latin America, but very rare in North American and Europe. Patient survival has improved significantly over the past two decades. However, standard treatment has not yet been established, although dozens of prospective trials have been conducted. To help understand how the treatment of ENKTCL has evolved in the past and what trends lie ahead, we have comprehensively reviewed the treatment of this aggressive malignancy, with a particular focus on neglected or unanswered issues, such as the optimal staging method, the best partner of asparaginase (Asp), the individualized administration of Asp, the preferred sequence of CT and RT and so on. Overall, the 5-year overall survival (OS) of patients with Ann Arbor stage I/II disease increased from < 50% in the early 20th century to > 80% in recent years, and the median OS of patients with Ann Arbor stage III/IV disease increased from < 1 year to more than 3 years. The improvement in patient survival is largely attributable to advances in radiation technology and the introduction of Asp and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy into practice. Radiotherapy is essential for patients with early-stage disease, while Asp-based chemotherapy (CT) and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors significantly improved the prognosis of patients with advanced-stage disease. ENKTCL management is trending toward simpler regimens, less toxicity, and higher efficacy. Novel drugs, such as manufactured T cells, monoclonal antibodies, and small molecule inhibitors, are being intensively investigated. Based on the fact that ENKTCL is highly resistant to cytotoxic drugs except Asp, and aggressive CT leads to higher toxicity rather than better outcomes, we recommend it is unnecessary to expend additional resources to compare different combinations of Asp with cytotoxic agents. Instead, more efforts should be made to optimize the use of Asp and immunotherapy to maximize efficacy and minimize toxicity, explore ways to overcome resistance to Asp and immunotherapy, identify novel treatment targets, and define subpopulations who may benefit more from specific treatments.

High-dose extended-field radiotherapy plus chemotherapy improved survival in extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma in a real-life setting: results from the multicenter T-Cell Brazil Project. Sci Rep 2022; 12:20557.

Abstract
Extranodal natural-killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a rare and aggressive Epstein-Barr virus related mature T-cell and natural-killer malignancy. Although highly prevalent in South America, few studies covering data from this geographic location have been published. Therefore, this study aims to report clinical characteristics, prognostic factors, and outcomes in a multicenter cohort of ENKTL patients from Brazil. This retrospective, observational and multicenter study included 98 ENKTL patients treated during two decades in Brazil. Data were extracted from the T-Cell Brazil Project database. In our cohort, 59/98 patients (60.2%) were male, with a median age of 50 years. Sixty-two patients (63.3%) had B-symptoms, 26/98 (26.5%) had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scale ≥ 2; 16/98 (16.3%) presented extranasal disease and 34.7% (34/98) were advanced-stage (Ann Arbor/Cotswolds III/IV). The median follow-up for the whole cohort was 49 months, with an estimated 2-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of 51.1% and 17.7%, respectively. In early-stage disease (IE/IIE), the median OS was 21.8 months for patients treated with concurrent radiotherapy plus chemotherapy (CCRT-VIPD [etoposide/vp-16, ifosfamide, cisplatin and dexamethasone), 16.2 months for sequential chemoradiotherapy (SCRT) followed by asparaginase-based regimens, and 56.7 months for SCRT followed by CHOP-like (cyclophosphamide, doxorrubicin, vincristine and prednisone) treatments, p = 0.211. CCRT was associated with higher rates of early-mortality, hematological toxicity, and mucositis. Median OS was 8.2 months for patients with advanced-stage disease receiving regimens containing asparaginase compared to 3.2 months for anthracycline-based therapy, p = 0.851. Chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) regimens demonstrated better OS (p = 0.001) and PFS (p = 0.007) than chemotherapy alone. Multivariate analysis revealed anemia, relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease and radiotherapy omission as poor outcome predictors for OS. Lymphopenia and radiotherapy omission adversely affected PFS. Concerning progression of disease within 24-months (POD-24), clinical stage III/IV was a poor outcome predictor. In this real-life Brazilian cohort, ENKTL presented dismal outcomes. Radiation therapy was an independent factor for increased OS and PFS, but CCRT regimens were associated with higher toxicities. Polychemotherapy based on anti-multi drug resistant agents was not associated with survival benefit in either early or advanced-stage disease in our patient cohort.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated neoplasms derived from natural killer (NK) or T cells comprise a group of clinically and biologically heterogenous disorders affecting children and adults, which are overall rare but more prevalent in Asia and South America. This review focuses on neoplasms presenting in the adulthood, addressing recent genomic discoveries as well as therapeutic developments in these highly aggressive disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Distinct molecular subtypes of extranodal NK/T-cell lymphomas (ENKTCLs) have been described, with differences in cell of origin, EBV pattern, genomic alterations, clinical characteristics, response to asparaginase-based therapies and to more recent approaches targeting molecular aberrations of the lymphoma. For the last two decades, progress in the clinical management of ENKTCL was based on L-asapraginase containing combinations and the incoroperation of radiotherapy. A subset of cases with PDL1-2 structural alterations may be more responsive to treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Primary nodal EBV+ lymphomas derived from T or NK cells have distinctive features separating them from both peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified and ENKTCL. Treatment algorithms correspond to those for advanced ENKTCL. SUMMARY With better understanding of lymphomagenesis, genomic landscape and immunologic aspects of the diseases, future treatment options will include targeted therapies including immune checkpoint inhibitors and novel antibodies.

Abstract
Extranodal Natural Killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is an extremely rare type of lymphoma which is highly lethal. It mainly affects the midline area unfolding as a necrotic granulomatous and extremely disfiguring lesion. There are two subtypes of (NKTL); the most common one is nasal which appears in the nasal cavity including the nasopharynx, oropharynx, parts of the aero digestive tract and Waldeyer’s ring. While the other rarer subtype, appears in sites like the skin, testis, gastrointestinal tract, salivary glands and muscle. ENKTL is popular for the expression of multidrug resistance-associated P-glycoprotein, which not only plays the main role at exporting many antitumor agents outside tumor cells, but also makes the disease hard to treat. It is commonly associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and commonly occurs in Asian populations. However, there is no single unified consensus yet as to what is the standardized treatment for ENKTL. Radiotherapy alone treatment, has been considered as a first-line therapy for localized ENKTL, which later on was found to be insufficient for improving survival rates. Thus, the combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy has been recommended as a therapeutic modality for localized ENKTL. Several combination modalities of radiotherapy and chemotherapy have been advised in clinical practice including concurrent, sequential and sandwich chemo radiotherapy. For the best treatment outcome, only patients with localized nasal ENKTL and low risk of treatment failure are eligible for radiotherapy. Both radiotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have been used as treatment modalities in ENKTL patients. Upfront HSCT was performed for ENKTL, but it was associated with a very poor prognosis even for the limited-stage disease. The evidence supporting the use of HSCT to treat ENKTL was derived from the results of a series of phase 1 and 2 trials along with retrospective studies. The end result was a unified consensus that consolidative HSCT is not necessary in patients with newly diagnosed localized ENKTL who achieved complete response after treatment with any of the modern chemo radiotherapy regimens. Hence, HSCT is solely advised for advanced and relapsed NKTL. The main debate remains over which HSCT is the most suitable for patients with newly diagnosed advanced NKTL and relapsed NKTL.

Abstract
Aggressive natural killer-cell leukemia (ANKL) is a rare hematological malignancy characterized by the abnormal proliferation of natural killer (NK) cells. There are currently no therapies approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of ANKL, but advancements in genomics are assisting in the unraveling of this rare malignancy. We selected 37 articles that contained information on genomics, immunohistochemistry, and/or current clinical trials relating to the treatment and survival of ANKL. Current therapeutic strategies have been subdivided into (1) concurrent chemoradiation, (2) sequential chemoradiation, and (3) sandwich chemoradiation. These methods have been developed to reduce toxicity while still producing a pathologic response. Concurrent chemoradiation with VIDL (etoposide, ifosfamide, dexamethasone, and L-asparaginase) produced an excellent clinical response, while sequential chemoradiation with SMILE (steroid dexamethasone, methotrexate, ifosfamide, L-asparaginase, and etoposide) showed an adequate response, but with severe hematologic toxicity. The efficacy of L-asparaginase in chemotherapeutic regimens and its association with NK-cell apoptosis have led to its inclusion in all standard regimens. Future studies are focusing on the addition of a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitor and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).

Abstract
Natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL) is a sub-type of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related non-Hodgkin lymphomas common in Asia and Latin America but rare elsewhere. Its pathogenesis is complex and incompletely understood. Lymphoma cells are transformed from NK- or T-cells, sometimes both. EBV-infection and subsequent genetic alterations in infected cells are central to NKTL development. Hemophagocytic syndrome is a common complication. Accurate staging is important to predict outcomes but there is controversy which system is best. More than two-thirds of NKTL lympohmas are localized at diagnosis, are frequently treated with radiation therapy only and have 5-year survival of about 70 percent. Persons with advanced NKTLs receive radiation therapy synchronously or metachronously with diverse multi-drug chemotherapy typically including L-asparginase with 5-year survival of about 40 percent. Some persons with widespread NKTL receive chemotherapy only. There are few data on safety and efficacy of high-dose therapy and a haematopoietic cell autotransplant. Immune therapies, histone deacetylase (HDAC)-inhibitors and other drugs are in early clinical trials. There are few randomized controlled clinical trials in NKTLs and no therapy strategy is clearly best; more effective therapy(ies) are needed. Some consensus recommendations are not convincingly evidence-based. Mechanisms of multi-drug resistance are considered. We discuss these issues including recent advances in our understanding of and therapy of NKTLs.

Abstract
PURPOSE As extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) occurs rarely in children and adolescents, standardized therapy is yet to be determined. This study aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the optimal chemotherapy regimen for childhood ENKTL. METHODS The treatment outcomes of radiotherapy combined with asparaginase-based (P-GEMOX or P-GMED) or asparaginase-absent chemotherapy regimens (CHOP, EPOCH, or NHL-BFM-90/95) in patients aged ≤18 years with newly diagnosed ENKTL from December 2006 to December 2018 were compared. RESULTS Among the 34 patients included in the study, 21 had stage I/II disease. The overall response rates of chemotherapy with or without asparaginase were 85.0% and 78.6%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 54 months, the 5-year event-free survival (EFS) rates of patients with stage I/II and III/IV disease were 66.2 ± 11.3% and 26.0 ± 12.8%, respectively (P = .027). In stage III/IV patients treated with asparaginase-based or asparaginase-absent regimens, the 5-year EFS rates were 40.0 ± 17.4% and 0%, respectively (P = .236). The 5-year EFS rates of stage III/IV patients who received or did not receive hematopoietic stem cell transplant were 66.7 ± 27.2% and 11.1 ± 10.5%, respectively (P = .054). In addition, chemotherapy-associated side effects were significantly less in patients treated with asparaginase-based regimens as compared to asparaginase-absent regimens in this cohort. CONCLUSION P-GEMOX and P-GMED regimens are effective and safe for treating childhood ENKTL.

Optimal Courses of Chemotherapy Combined with Radiotherapy for Low-Risk Extranodal Natural Killer/T-Cell Lymphoma, Nasal Type: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. Ther Clin Risk Manag 2020; 16:1151-1163. [PMID: 33299317 PMCID: PMC7721000 DOI: 10.2147/tcrm.s254246] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose This retrospective study compared effectiveness between ≤4 cycles and ≥5 cycles of L-asparaginase/pegaspargase-based chemoradiation in newly diagnosed low-risk extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL), nasal type classified according to the Prognostic Index of Natural Killer (PINK) lymphoma model. Patients and Methods Patients were categorized into ≤4-cycle (2–4 chemotherapy cycles, n = 166) and ≥5-cycle groups (5–6 cycles, n = 86). Propensity score matching analysis was used to reduce potential confounding bias between the two groups. Treatment responses, adverse events, and survival outcomes between the two groups were analyzed. Results No matter before or after matching (65 in the ≤4-cycle group, 65 in the ≥5-cycle group), response rates and survival outcomes were similar between the ≤4-cycle and ≥5-cycle groups. Incidences of grade 1–2 anemia and transaminase elevation were higher in the ≥5-cycle group. After matching, for stage IE disease, there were no differences in response rates and survival outcomes between the two groups. For stage IIE disease, the complete response rate was higher in the ≥5-cycle group (72.4% vs 92.6%, p = 0.049), and the 3-year overall survival (65.5% vs 85.2%, p = 0.024) and 3-year progression-free survival (58.6% vs 81.5%, p = 0.027) rates were significantly extended in the ≥5-cycle group. Conclusion When chemoradiotherapy strategies with L-asparaginase/pegaspargase-based regimens are applied to modern low-risk ENKTL patients classified according to the PINK model, it may be better to moderately extend chemotherapy courses in patients with stage IIE disease.

Abstract
At present, autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is considered as an optional consolidation therapy for natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL). However, the high-risk patients undergoing ASCT are not clear enough. In this study, 56 patients with advanced staged or relapsed/refractory (R/R) NKTCL undergoing ASCT were reviewed. All patients achieved clinical complete response (CR) before ASCT. The median follow-up time was 36 months (range, 3-192 months). The three-year overall survival (OS) and three-year progression-free survival (PFS) were 70.2% and 56.5%, respectively. The independent prognostic factors for OS included prior testis involvement and pre-ASCT EBV-DNA. Patients without prior testis involvement and negative pre-ASCT EBV-DNA (group A) had better three-year OS (86.3% vs. 47.6%, p < .001) than the rest patients (group B). In conclusion, our study suggests that testis involvement and elevated EBV-DNA might be strong adverse prognostic factors for NKTCL. Patients without the above risk factors are more likely to benefit from ASCT.

Abstract
The optimal treatment strategy of newly diagnosed stage I/II, extranodal nasal-type natural killer/T cell lymphoma (NKTCL) remains unclear. This prospective phase II trial was conducted to explore the short-term and the long-term efficacy and safety of upfront concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by pegaspargase, gemcitabine, dexamethasone, cisplatin (P-GDP) regimen in patients newly diagnosed with early stage NKTCL.Thirty patients newly diagnosed with stage I/II NKTCL were enrolled from January 2013 to December 2016, and treated as the following strategy: upfront CCRT with cisplatin weekly (25 mg/m) for 5 weeks, followed by 3 cycles of P-GDP regimen chemotherapy (pegaspargase 2500IU/m capped at 3750IU, intramuscular on day 4, gemcitabine 850 mg/m intravenous on days 1 and 8; dexamethasone 40 mg/day intravenous on days 1 to 4; and cisplatin 20 mg/m intravenous on days 1-3) 3 weeks after the completion of CCRT. The objective response rate (ORR) and the complete response (CR) rate were the primary endpoints, and the secondary endpoints were the overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and the adverse event (AE).The median follow-up period was 51.5 months (range, 5-78months). The ORR was 93.3% (28/30) and all these 28 patients attained CR at the end of the treatment. Two patients suffered from lymphoma associated hemophagocytic syndrome (LAHS) during the period of consolidation chemotherapy and died within 2 months. The 5-year OS was 93.3%, and the 5-year PFS was 89.4%Mucositis was the most common grades 3/4 nonhematologic AEs (10%, 3/30) of CCRT. During the P-GDP chemotherapy, vomiting (6.7%, 2/30), neutropenia (43.3%, 13/30) and thrombocytopenia (23.3%, 7/30) were the major grades 3/4 toxicities during chemotherapy. No treatment-related deaths occurred.The upfront CCRT followed by P-GDP regimen chemotherapy is an effective and well-tolerated first-line treatment strategy for patients diagnosed with early stage NKTCL. Further investigation of larger sample size is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the role of TNFAIP3 deletions and NF-κB activation in extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL), nasal type. METHODS In total, 138 patients with ENKTCL were included. Activation of NF-κB pathway and expression of TNFAIP3 (A20) were examined by immunohistochemistry. TNFAIP3 was analyzed for deletions using FICTION (fluorescence immunophenotyping and interphase cytogenetics as a tool for investigating neoplasms), for mutations using Sanger sequencing, and for promoter methylation using methylation-specific sequencing. RESULTS NF-κB pathway activation was observed in 31.2% of cases (43/138), TNFAIP3 expression was negative in 15.2% of cases (21/138), and heterozygous TNFAIP3 deletion was observed in 35% of cases (35/100). TNFAIP3 exons 2 to 9 mutations and promoter methylation were not observed. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed patients with NF-κB pathway activation or TNFAIP3 heterozygous deletion to have a longer overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that NF-κB activation and TNFAIP3 heterozygous deletion confer superior survival in patients with ENKTCL.

Abstract
Background Natural Killer T–Cell Lymphoma (NKTCL) is a subtype of Non‐Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and its morbidity is ranked the first of T‐Cell Lymphoma. Hippo signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of tumors. However, the role of Hippo signaling pathway in the oncogenesis of NKTCL still remains unclear. Methods The expressions of mammalian sterile 20‐like kinase 1 (MST1) and Yes‐associated protein (YAP) were investigated by RT‐PCR and Western blotting. Cell viability was detected by MTT assays. Cell cycle and cell apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry. Cell proliferative capacity was detected by colony formation assay. Nude mice xenograft models were established and the tumor sections were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Results The expression of MST1 was significantly down‐regulated in NKTCL tissues (n = 30) and cell lines, while the expression of YAP was significantly up‐regulated, and the phosphorylation of YAP was inhibited. Overexpression of MST1, knockdown of YAP, or verteporfin (VP) treatment could inhibit cell proliferation, and promote cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in NKTCL cells, while knockdown of MST1 and overexpression of YAP promoted cell proliferation. Additionally, Bcl‐2/Bax ratio and downstream effectors of Hippo signaling pathway (c‐myc, survivin, cyclinD1, CTGF, and TEAD) were significantly decreased when MST1 was overexpressed and YAP was knocked down or after VP treatment. Furthermore, our mice model demonstrated that activation of Hippo signal pathway suppressed the tumorigenesis of NKTCL. Conclusion The activation of Hippo signal pathway via overexpressing MST1 or down‐regulating YAP can inhibit the tumorigenesis of NKTCL.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL), is a rare malignancy of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by an aggressive clinical course and poor prognosis. It shows strong association with Epstein-Barr virus infection and occurs more commonly in Asia and Latin America. Various genetic alterations have been identified in ENKL by gene expression profiling and sequencing techniques. The frequent deletion of chromosome 6q21 was reported to lead to the silence of several tumor suppressor genes. Also, there have been novel genetic mutations that were recently uncovered and were found to frequently activate several oncogenic pathways, including the JAK/STAT, NF-κB, and MAPK pathways. Besides, we believe that deregulated single genes and epigenetic dysregulation might be relevant to the mechanism of this disease and thus, may have the potential to shed lights on the development of new therapeutic strategies. The consensus on the standard treatment for ENKL has not yet been currently established. For localized ENKL patients, radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy and sequential patterns of chemotherapy and radiotherapy are recommended as first-line therapy. As for advanced or relapsed/refractory ENKL patients, the application of non-anthracycline-containing regimens have significantly improved the clinical outcome, contributing to higher response rate, longer overall survival and progression-free survival. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is widely recommended for consolidation after a complete remission or partial remission has been achieved. The anti-programmed death 1 antibody, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, has demonstrated favorable results in treating relapsed or refractory ENKL. Of the current ENKL treatment, researchers are still striving to validate how radiotherapy and chemotherapy should be optimally combined and which of the non-anthracycline-containing regimens is superior. In this review, we summarize the main genetic alterations frequently found in ENKL and their role in providing new insights into the therapeutic targets of this disease, and highlight the recent findings regarding new biologic markers, novel therapeutic strategies applied to this intriguing neoplasm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the survival of pediatric tonsillar cancer patients and review a rare case of pediatric tonsillar cancer. METHODS Pediatric patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were included from 1973 to 2014 based on a diagnosis of tonsillar malignancy using the ICD O-3 tonsil primary site codes of: C09.0, C09.1, C09.8, and C09.9. Patients were included from birth-18 years. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Additionally, a case of pediatric natural killer (NK) cell tonsillar lymphoma diagnosed and treated at the Nemours Children's hospital in Orlando, Florida is presented. RESULTS One hundred forty-one cases of tonsil cancer were identified. The mean age at diagnosis was 9.9 years (SD: 5.1, range: 0.0 (months)-18.0). Ninety five (67.4%) patients were male and 116 (82.3%) had unilateral malignancies. Burkitt lymphoma (32.6%) followed by diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (27.0%) were the two most common histological types of tonsillar cancers. 79.4% of patients received chemotherapy and 81.6% received surgery as a part of their care. The 5-year disease-specific survival rate was >90% for patient cohorts diagnosed from 1984 to 1993, 1994-2003, and 2004-2014 as compared to 64% for patients diagnosed from 1973 to 1983 (p = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Survival rates for pediatric patients with tonsillar cancer are excellent. Pediatric primary tonsil cancer occurred most commonly in adolescent males and usually presents as a unilateral mass. Lymphoma remains the predominant histological type of cancer. Most patients are likely to receive surgery and chemotherapy.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T cell lymphoma (ENKTL), nasal type, presents predominantly as a localized disease involving the nasal cavity and adjacent sites, and the treatment of localized nasal ENKTL is a major issue. However, given its rarity, there is no standard therapy based on randomized controlled trials and therefore a lack of consensus on the treatment of localized nasal ENKTL. Currently recommended treatments are based mainly on the results of phase II studies and retrospective analyses. Because the previous outcomes of anthracycline-containing chemotherapy were poor, non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens, including etoposide and L-asparaginase, have been used mainly for patients with localized nasal ENKTL. Radiotherapy also has been used as a main component of treatment because it can produce a rapid response. Accordingly, the combined approach of non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy with radiotherapy is currently recommended as a first-line treatment for localized nasal ENKTL. This review summarizes the different approaches for the use of non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy with radiotherapy including concurrent, sequential, and sandwich chemoradiotherapy, which have been proposed as a first-line treatment for newly diagnosed patients with localized nasal ENKTL.

Abstract
Background This study compared clinical outcomes and adverse events between L-asparaginase/pegaspargase-based short-course and long-course chemoradiotherapy in newly diagnosed stage IE–IIE extranodal natural killer/T cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL). Material/Methods Patients were categorized into a short-course (2–4 chemotherapy cycles, median: 4, n=153) and long-course group (5–6 cycles, median: 6, n=83). The chemotherapy regimens included GELOX, SMILE, and VLP. The radiotherapy dose was 40–63 Gy (median: 55 Gy). Adverse events, treatment responses, and survival outcomes between the 2 groups were compared. Results Ann Arbor stage IIE and short-course chemotherapy adversely affected overall survival (OS). Ann Arbor stage IE favorably affected progression-free survival (PFS). Grade 3–4 hematological toxicities were higher in the long-course group (25.3% vs. 14.4%, p=0.038). Ann Arbor stage was the single different clinical feature between the 2 groups, and independently affected survival outcomes. In subgroup analysis of stage IE, there was no difference in response rates and survival outcomes between the 2 groups. In subgroup analysis of stage IIE, the recurrence and death rates were significantly lower in the long-course group (6.1% vs. 23.2%, p=0.015; 12.2% vs. 39.3%, p=0.002; respectively), and the 3-year OS and PFS rates were much longer in the long-course group (87.8% vs. 62.5%, p<0.001; 83.7% vs. 57.1%, p=0.001; respectively). Conclusions When radiotherapy was combined with L-asparaginase/pegaspargase-based chemotherapy to treat early-stage ENKTL patients, 2–4 cycles of chemotherapy might be sufficient for stage IE patients, while stage IIE patients might require 5+ cycles.

Early disease progression in patients with localized natural killer/T-cell lymphoma treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Cancer Sci 2018; 109:2056-2062.

Abstract
Prognosis of patients with localized nasal extranodal natural killer/T‐cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL) has been improved by non‐anthracycline‐containing treatments such as concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). However, some patients experience early disease progression. To clarify the clinical features and outcomes of these patients, data from 165 patients with localized nasal ENKL who were diagnosed between 2000 and 2013 at 31 institutes in Japan and who received radiotherapy with dexamethasone, etoposide, ifosfamide, and carboplatin (RT‐DeVIC) were retrospectively analyzed. Progression of disease within 2 years after diagnosis (POD24) was used as the definition of early progression. An independent dataset of 60 patients with localized nasal ENKL who received CCRT at Samsung Medical Center was used in the validation analysis. POD24 was documented in 23% of patients who received RT‐DeVIC and in 25% of patients in the validation cohort. Overall survival (OS) from risk‐defining events of the POD24 group was inferior to that of the reference group in both cohorts (P < .00001). In the RT‐DeVIC cohort, pretreatment elevated levels of serum soluble interleukin‐2 receptor (sIL‐2R), lactate dehydrogenase, C‐reactive protein, and detectable Epstein‐Barr virus DNA in peripheral blood were associated with POD24. In the validation cohort, no pretreatment clinical factor associated with POD24 was identified. Our study indicates that POD24 is a strong indicator of survival in localized ENKL, despite the different CCRT regimens adopted. In the treatment of localized nasal ENKL, POD24 is useful for identifying patients who have unmet medical needs.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL) is a subtype of mature T- and natural killer cell lymphomas characterized by its association with Epstein-Barr virus and extranodal involvement. Although there is geographic variance in the frequency of ENKL, its clinical features are similar between Western countries and endemic areas, such as East Asia. Anthracycline-containing chemotherapy is not recommended to treat ENKL. No standard treatment has been established based on the results of randomized controlled trials. In patients with localized disease, radiotherapy is a core component of the recommended first-line therapy. Radiotherapy administered at 50 to 54 Gy, extended involved-site radiotherapy considering tumor invasiveness, and the use of intensity modulated radiation therapy or volumetric modulated arc therapy are associated with efficacy of radiotherapy. Although the use of concurrent chemoradiotherapy has been supported by the results of clinical trials, accumulating evidence supports the use of sequential chemoradiotherapy with non-anthracycline-containing regimens that include l-asparaginase and/or platinum anticancer agents. l-asparaginase-containing chemotherapy is a key component of first-line treatments for systemic ENKL. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is recommended as a front-line consolidation therapy for newly diagnosed advanced-stage ENKL. Newer agents including immune checkpoint inhibitors are being investigated for treating ENKL. In this modern ENKL treatment era, multidisciplinary efforts are needed to identify the best timing and sequencing of radiotherapy, l-asparaginase, platinum, newer agents, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL-NT) is an aggressive extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma most commonly occurring in East Asia and Latin America but with increasing incidence in the United States. Data on epidemiology, disease presentation, and outcome for European and North American ("Western") cases are very limited. We review published landmark clinical studies on ENKTL-NT in the West and report in detail recent data, including our institutional experience. RECENT FINDINGS We highlight key observations in its epidemiology, natural history, and trends in clinical management. In the USA, ENKTL-NT is more common among Asian Pacific Islanders (API) and Hispanics compared to non-Hispanic whites. Published studies indicate less heterogeneity in clinical presentation in Western ENKTL-NT compared to Asian patients. While there is variation in age at diagnosis, presence of antecedent lymphoproliferative disorders, and outcomes among racial/ethnic groups, the universal association of ENKTL-NT with EBV and the poor response of this neoplasm to anthracycline-based therapy is consistent across all geographic areas. Data on epidemiology, disease presentation, and clinical outcomes in mature T cell and NK cell (T/NK cell) neoplasms, including ENKTL-NT, in Europe and North America are very limited. As the classification and diagnostic characterization of the currently recognized T/NK cell lymphoma disease entities continue to evolve, gaps and inconsistencies in data reporting across different studies are being recognized. Despite these limitations, several studies from the USA suggest that the incidence of ENKTL-NT is higher in Asian Pacific Islanders (API) and non-white Hispanics and that outcomes may be worse in non-whites. However, the universal association of ENKTL-NT with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) across all ethnic groups suggests a common pathogenesis. Given the overlap between the entities included in the category of T/NK cell neoplasms, there is a need to further define biological and clinical differences that may affect diagnosis, treatment, and outcome.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL) is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. The long-term effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) on ENKTL has been reported occasionally but needs further investigation. In this retrospective study from a single center, 20 ENKTL patients who received induction chemotherapy followed by auto-HSCT ± involved-field radiotherapy (IFRT) ± additional chemotherapy were enrolled as a study group. Another 60 fit ENKTL patients who received induction chemotherapy ± IFRT ± additional chemotherapy were selected as the control group. Baseline characteristics of all patients were well balanced. Our analysis showed that after a median follow-up time of 61.0 months (95% CI 52.3-69.7), the auto-HSCT treated group showed better overall survival (OS) than the control group (p = 0.045). The median OS of the auto-HSCT-treated group was not reached, but that of the control group was 62.0 months. Five-year comparison of OS between the two groups also showed a significant difference (79.3 vs. 52.3%, p = 0.026). We suggest that auto-HSCT treatment, in combination with chemoradiotherapy, may prolong OS and improve the long-term outcomes of fit patients with ENKTL compared to treatment with chemoradiotherapy alone.

Abstract
Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL), is a form of lymphoma characterized by preferential extranodal involvement, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) association, and geographic diversity in incidence. ENKL tumor cells express P-glycoprotein, which is related to multidrug resistance (MDR). This MDR phenomenon is thought to be the major reason why ENKL is resistant to anthracycline-containing chemotherapies and has led researchers to explore novel therapeutic strategies. Since the early 2000s, next-generation therapies, including upfront radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or concurrent chemoradiotherapy using non-MDR-related drugs, have markedly changed the management of ENKL. However, a recent large retrospective study in Japan revealed several limitations of next-generation therapies, in particular that they resulted in almost no improvement of early disease progression. This review will summarize the current management of ENKL, primarily based on clinical trial results, and provide clues for better future management.

Abstract
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) is an aggressive hematological disorder that is sensitive to chemotherapy; however, it exhibits frequent relapse rates. Platinum-containing therapeutics are the first-line salvage regimens used in the treatment of relapsed or refractory T-ALL/LBL. The selenium-platinum compound EG-Se/Pt is obtained from the combination of selenium-containing molecules (EG-Se) with cisplatin (CDDP); however, its anticancer properties have been poorly investigated. In the present study, the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to evaluate the inhibitory effect of treatment with EG-Se/Pt on cell viability. Cell cycle distribution, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and the mitochondrial membrane potential were analyzed using flow cytometry. Intracellular platinum content was detected using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Caspase activity was determined using a colorimetric assay. The expression of several proteins associated with apoptosis was analyzed using western blotting. The results of the present study demonstrated that treatment with EG-Se/Pt increased the inhibition of Jurkat and Molt-4 T-ALL/LBL cell viability compared with CDDP, and induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. The intracellular platinum content of T-ALL/LBL cells treated with EG-Se/Pt was increased compared with that of T-ALL/LBL cells treated with CDDP. EG-Se/Pt-induced apoptosis was mediated by caspase and ROS levels through the activation of the mitochondrial signaling pathway. The results of the present study suggest that EG-Se/Pt is a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of T-ALL/LBL.

Abstract
T-cell lymphomas are rare and aggressive malignancies associated with poor outcome, often because of the development of resistance in the lymphoma against chemotherapy as well as intolerance in patients to the established and toxic chemotherapy regimens. In this review article, we discuss the epidemiology, pathophysiology, current standard of care, and future treatments of common types of T-cell lymphomas, including adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, aggressive NK/T-cell lymphoma, and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Abstract
The head and neck are common sites for extranodal non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Radiotherapy plays an important role in the treatment of low-grade lymphomas, with curative or palliative intent. In the case of high-grade lymphomas, its combination with chemotherapy is debated. Its role is however undeniable in two specific entities: NK/T-cell lymphoma NK/T nasal type, and primary central nervous system lymphomas, which are the subject of this review.
