Ibrutinib in mantle cell lymphoma: a real-world retrospective multi-center analysis of 77 patients treated in the Czech Republic. Ann Hematol 2023; 102:107-115. [PMID: 36369497 PMCID: PMC9807478 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-022-05023-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022]
Abstract
Ibrutinib revolutionized therapy for relapsed/refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Real-world data on the outcome of unselected patients are still limited. We analyzed 77 R/R MCL patients receiving ibrutinib with at least one prior systemic anti-lymphoma therapy. After a median follow-up of 14.0 months, 56 patients relapsed/progressed, and 45 died. The overall response rate was 66%, with 31% of complete metabolic remissions on PET/CT. The median progression-free and overall survival (OS) rates were 10.3 and 23.1 months, respectively. The median OS from ibrutinib failure was 3.7 months. High proliferation rate by Ki67 (≥ 30%) and two or more previous therapy lines both negatively correlated with outcome (HR = 2.2, p = 0.04, and HR = 2.06, p = 0.08, respectively). Female gender borderline correlated with better outcome (HR = 0.53, p = 0.08). In multivariate analysis, Ki67 and response to ibrutinib both correlated with OS (p < 0.05). Importantly, ibrutinib appeared to better control nodal and extranodal lymphoma than bone marrow (BM) involvement. From 20 patients with detectable BM infiltration (before ibrutinib initiation) achieving complete (n = 13) or partial (n = 7) metabolic remission, none achieved remission in BM. We confirmed good efficacy of ibrutinib in unselected heavily pre-treated MCL patients. Our findings support the use of a combination of ibrutinib and rituximab in patients with BM involvement.

Tackling Mantle Cell Lymphoma in Europe. Healthcare (Basel) 2022; 10:healthcare10091682.

Abstract
An expert panel convened by the European Alliance for Personalized Medicine (EAPM) reflected on achievements and outstanding challenges in Europe in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Through the prism of member state experience, the panel noted advances in outcomes over the last decade, but highlighted issues constituting barriers to better care. The list notably included availability of newer treatments, infrastructure and funding for related testing, and shortages of relevant skills and of research support. The prospect of improvements was held to reside in closer coordination and cooperation within and between individual countries, and in changes in policy and scale of investment at both national and EU levels.

Abstract
Objectives: To discuss (1) recent and emerging data for pharmacological management of untreated and relapsed/refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) with agents approved in the United States, (2) important considerations for toxicity monitoring and management, and (3) preliminary data and ongoing studies for agents in MCL-specific clinical trials. Data Sources: PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Google Scholar, product labeling, National Comprehensive Cancer Network, American Cancer Society, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for studies published between January 1, 2017, and January 31, 2020, and key historical trials. Study Selection and Data Extraction: Relevant studies conducted in humans and selected supporting preclinical data were reviewed. Data Synthesis: MCL is a rare but usually aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma that most commonly affects the older population. Traditionally, the treatment of MCL has been determined based on transplant eligibility. Newer data suggest that more tolerable frontline therapy may produce outcomes similar to intensive historical induction regimens, possibly precluding fewer patients from autologous stem cell transplant and producing better long-term outcomes in transplant-ineligible patients. In the R/R setting, novel regimens are improving outcomes and changing the landscape of treatment. Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice: This review summarizes and discusses recent and emerging data for management of newly diagnosed and R/R MCL; key supportive care considerations for agents are also discussed. Conclusions: Recent study results are changing management of MCL. Although these data have complicated the picture of regimen selection, increasingly effective and tolerable therapy and additional anticipated data point to a brighter future for patients with MCL.

Rituximab maintenance significantly reduces early follicular lymphoma progressions in patients treated with frontline R-CHOP. EJHAEM 2020; 1:170-180. [PMID: 35847728 PMCID: PMC9175682 DOI: 10.1002/jha2.60] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 07/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Twenty percent of patients with high-tumor-burden (HTB) follicular lymphoma (FL) develop progression/relapse of disease (POD) within 24 months of frontline immunochemotherapy. Unfortunately, about 50% of these patients die within 5 years since POD event. Rituximab maintenance was proven to reduce relapse rate in responding FL, but its role on preventing POD was not defined. We analyzed 1360 HTB-FL patients from the Czech Lymphoma Study Group registry treated with frontline rituximab-containing regimen. Of those, 950 cases received rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) and achieved complete or partial remission: 712 patients received rituximab maintenance (MAINT) and 238 were a historical observational cohort (OBS). We have proposed a modified POD24 (mPOD24) endpoint for the chemosensitive patients calculated from the end-of-induction (EOI). Survival rates since EOI were as follows: 5-year overall survival (OS) 86.2% versus 94.5% in the OBS and MAINT groups, respectively (P < .001) and 5-year progression-free survival 58.5% (OBS) and 75.4% (MAINT) (P < .001). The Cox proportional hazards model showed a decrease in mPOD24 incidence in the MAINT group with the overall hazard rate reduced by 56% (hazard ratio = 0.44; P < .001). The cumulative incidence of mPOD24 was reduced from 24.1% in OBS to 10.1% in MAINT (P < .001). Comparison of non-mPOD24 cases showed OS similar to that in the general population. Rituximab maintenance given after R-CHOP resulted in a 2.4-fold reduction in mPOD24 incidence. Once the non-POD24 status is achieved, FL does not shorten the patients' life expectancy.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a heterogeneous malignancy with a broad spectrum of clinical behavior from indolent to highly aggressive cases. Despite the fact that MCL remains in most cases incurable by currently applied immunochemotherapy, our increasing knowledge on the biology of MCL in the last two decades has led to the design, testing, and approval of several innovative agents that dramatically changed the treatment landscape for MCL patients. Most importantly, the implementation of new drugs and novel treatment algorithms into clinical practice has successfully translated into improved outcomes of MCL patients not only in the clinical trials, but also in real life. This review focuses on recent advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of MCL, and provides a brief survey of currently used treatment options with special focus on mode of action of selected innovative anti-lymphoma molecules. Finally, it outlines future perspectives of patient management with progressive shift from generally applied immunotherapy toward risk-stratified, patient-tailored protocols that would implement innovative agents and/or procedures with the ultimate goal to eradicate the lymphoma and cure the patient.
