Abstract
Mycosis fungoides with large-cell transformation (MF-LCT) occurs in a minor proportion of aggressive lesions, which express CD30 similar to primary cutaneous anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (pcALCL). We investigated the differences in spatially resolved transcriptome profiles of MF-LCT and pcALCL using CD30 morphology markers and 28 and 24 regions of interest (ROIs) in MF-LCT and pcALCL, respectively. Differentially expressed genes, pathway analysis, and immune-cell deconvolution by selective analysis of CD30-positive tumor cells and CD30-negative extratumoral areas were undertaken. In CD30-positive ROIs of MF-LCT, 190 differentially expressed genes were upregulated (29 were directly or indirectly associated with extracellular matrix remodeling), whereas 255 differentially expressed genes were downregulated, compared with those of pcALCL. Except for cornified envelope formation and keratinization, all six pathways enriched in CD30-positive ROIs of MF-LCT were associated with extracellular matrix remodeling. In CD30-positive ROIs in MF-LCT compared with those in pcALCL, immune-cell deconvolution revealed significantly increased fibroblasts and M2 macrophages (P = 0.012 and P = 0.023, respectively) but decreased M1 macrophages (P = 0.031). In CD30-negative ROIs in MF-LCT compared with those in pcALCL, memory B (P = 0.021), plasma (P = 0.023), and CD8 memory T (P = 0.001) cells significantly decreased, whereas regulatory T cells (P = 0.024) increased. Predomination of extracellular matrix remodeling pathways and immunosuppressive microenvironment in MF-LCT indicates pathophysiological differences between MF-LCT and pcALCL.

Abstract
ABSTRACT The discovery of CD30 as a diagnostic marker was essential in the identification of not only some lymphomas but also many other solid tumors and benign reactive conditions. Many CD30+ cutaneous disorders and tumors have been categorized since the identification of the marker. With the design of targeted therapies against CD30+ tumoral cells, the interest in CD30 determination was not only diagnostic but also mainly therapeutic. In this article, we explore the historical aspects of the discovery of CD30 and examine the main CD30-related cutaneous pathology, susceptible of anti-CD30 modern treatments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION CD30 expression has been infrequently described in cutaneous B-cell lymphomas (CBCLs). We examined CD30 expression in reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (RLH) and CBCL and correlated expression with clinicopathologic features. METHODS CD30 was examined in 82 CBCL patients and 10 RLH patients that had been evaluated in our cutaneous lymphoma clinics. The CBCL patients included: primary cutaneous follicle center lymphoma (PCFCL), Grade 1/2 systemic/nodal follicular lymphoma (SFL); primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma/lymphoproliferative disorder (PCMZL/LPD); systemic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL); primary cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, leg type (PCDLBCL-LT); and extracutaneous/systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (eDLBCL). We scored CD30 expression for intensity and extent and related CD30 expression to age at first diagnosis, sex, site of biopsy, clinical appearance, extracutaneous involvement, multiple cutaneous lesions, B-symptoms, lymphadenopathy, positive positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and positive bone marrow biopsy. RESULTS CD30 expression was identified in 35% of CBCL, ranging from few, weak, scattered cells to strong and diffuse expression. It was most common in PCFCL and was not expressed in PCDLBCL-LT. Rare PCFCL expressed strong, diffuse CD30. Some cases of PCMZL/LPD, SMZL, FL, and RLH showed scattered, strongly positive cells. CD30 expression in CBCL was associated with favorable clinical features: younger age, negative PET/CT, and an LDH within normal limits. CONCLUSIONS CD30 may be expressed in CBCL, possibly causing diagnostic confusion. CD30 expression was most commonly identified in PCFCL and is associated with favorable clinical features. In cases with strong and diffuse expression, CD30 could be a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Aggressive CD30-positive cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CD30+CTCL) are associated with unfavorable prognosis. Anthracycline-based polychemotherapy (CHOP) and brentuximab-vedotin (BV) monotherapy are related to poor outcomes in case of extracutaneous involvement or rapidly-progressing disease. Our objective was to assess the effectiveness of BV + CHP in aggressive CD30+CTCL. We included 7 patients treated with BV + CHP from April 2015 to January 2022: 4 had mycosis fungoides with large-cell transformation, 2 had primary cutaneous anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, and 1 harbored a primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8-positive T-cell lymphoma. After a median [IQR] follow-up of 17.2 [13.2-21.0] months, 6/7 patients achieved an ORR lasting ≥4 months. The median [IQR] duration of response was 9.5 [5.9-11.1] months and the median [IQR] progression free survival was 14.9 [11.6-16.4] months. Four patients displayed progression with a median (range) time to next treatment of 15.8 (6.5-16.3) months. Two grade-3 adverse events were reported: febrile neutropenia and thromboembolic event. BV + CHP displayed substantial antitumor activity and favorable safety profile in 7 patients with aggressive CD30+CTCL.

Abstract
The introduction of monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab to the treatment of cancer has greatly advanced the treatment scenario in onco-hematology. However, the response to these agents may be limited by insufficient efficacy or resistance. Antibody–drug conjugates are an attractive strategy to deliver payloads of toxicity or radiation with high selectivity toward malignant targets and limited unwanted effects. Primary cutaneous lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of disorders and a current area of unmet need in dermato-oncology due to the limited options available for advanced cases. This review briefly summarizes our current understanding of T and B cell lymphomagenesis, with a focus on recognized molecular alterations that may provide investigative therapeutic targets. The authors reviewed antibody-directed therapies investigated in the setting of lymphoma: this term includes a broad spectrum of approaches, from antibody–drug conjugates such as brentuximab vedotin, to bi-specific antibodies, antibody combinations, antibody-conjugated nanotherapeutics, radioimmunotherapy and, finally, photoimmunotherapy with specific antibody–photoadsorber conjugates, as an attractive strategy in development for the future management of cutaneous lymphoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mycosis fungoides is the most common subtype of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, in which the expression of cluster of differentiation 30 (CD30)+ subtype can now be treated with the CD30 antibody conjugate brentuximab vedotin. Diagnostic methods are based on immunohistochemical (IHC) staining followed by manual assessment by pathologists, which is always a subjective calculation. QuPath, an open-source software for digital pathology image analysis, satisfies the requirements of objective approaches. METHODS Ten samples from mycosis fungoides patients with CD30 expression at different stages were stained for CD3 and CD30 by IHC staining, scanned, and quantitative analysis was performed using QuPath (version 2.1). Each slide was independently assessed by 3 board-certified dermatopathologists. RESULTS Individual estimates for CD30+/CD3+ cells varied among the individual histopathologists (mean coefficient of variation, 0.46; range, 0-0.78). QuPath analysis showed excellent separation between the positively stained cells for CD3 and CD30 IHC and other cells and tissue structures, although the results correlated strongly with the respective mean estimates of the 3 histopathologists (Pearson-R 0.93). CONCLUSIONS The results show a high interobserver variability evaluation of IHC markers, although quantitative image analysis offer a significant advantage for comparison. This is not only relevant for clinical routine but also especially critical in therapeutic studies addressing targeted molecules.

Abstract
CD30 is overexpressed in several lymphoma types, including classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), some peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL), and some cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. The antibody-drug conjugate brentuximab vedotin targets CD30-positive cells and has been evaluated for the treatment of various lymphoma entities. This narrative review summarizes 10 years of experience with brentuximab vedotin for the treatment of CD30-positive lymphomas, discusses novel therapies targeting CD30 in development, and highlights remaining controversies relating to CD30-targeted therapy across lymphoma types. The collective body of evidence for brentuximab vedotin demonstrates that exploitation of CD30 can provide sustained benefits across a range of different CD30-positive lymphomas, in both clinical trials and real-world settings. Preliminary experience with brentuximab vedotin in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors for relapsed/refractory cHL is encouraging, but further exploration is required. The optimal use of brentuximab vedotin for first-line therapy of PTCL remains to be determined. Further research is required on brentuximab vedotin treatment in high-risk patient populations, and in rare lymphoma subtypes, for which no standard of care exists. Novel therapies targeting CD30 include chimeric antigen receptor therapies and bispecific antibody T-cell engagers, which may be expected to further improve outcomes for patients with CD30-positive lymphomas in the coming years.

Abstract
Cutaneous lymphoma is generally treated with skin-directed therapies (SDT) during the early and localized stages. For the refractory or advanced stages, systemic therapies are used. Previously, retinoids and interferons were used for SDT-resistant cases. Only a few chemotherapy options were available for more advanced disease. In recent years, many novel agents have been introduced and the strategy for systemic therapy has changed, especially for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). For SDT, helical tomotherapy, a new radiation modality, has been drawing attention as an option for radiotherapy. Targeted therapies such as histone deacetylase inhibitors, mogamulizumab, brentuximab vedotin, and denileukin diftitox are new treatment options. Chemotherapy agents such as gemcitabine and pralatrexate have been introduced; they are expected to have meaningful efficacy as monotherapy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is still considered for young patients with advanced CTCL as the only potentially curative treatment.

Abstract
Diffuse large B cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL, NOS) is the most frequent non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtype. This aggressive neoplasm may variably express the CD30 protein, which may be used as a therapeutic target for this tumor. However, CD30 expression in DLBCL NOS arising from the oral cavity and the oropharynx has not been investigated. Therefore, this study aims to determine the frequency of CD30 expression and its prognostic significance for patients affected by oral/oropharyngeal DLBCL NOS. Fifty cases were retrieved from pathology files and submitted to immunohistochemistry against CD30. Reactivity was accessed by two oral pathologists using two cut-off values (> 0% and > 20% of tumor cells) to determine positivity in each case. Clinical data were obtained from the patients' medical files to investigate the prognostic potential of the protein. Seven high-grade B cell lymphomas and two EBV-positive DLBCL NOS were identified. We found one CD30-positive case in each of these two groups of lymphomas. Among the remaining 41 DLBCL NOS, other four cases (three in the oral cavity and one in the oropharynx) were positive for CD30, but only two expressed the protein in > 20% of tumor cells, both in the oral cavity. Survival analysis demonstrated that CD30-positive cases had a higher five-year overall survival rate (75%) than CD30-negative cases (32.3%), although a statistically significant result was not achieved (p = 0.19). Only a minor subset of oral and oropharyngeal DLBCL NOS express CD30 and these patients seems to have a higher survival rate.

Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are a promising class of immunotherapies with the potential to specifically target tumor cells and ameliorate the therapeutic index of cytotoxic drugs. ADCs comprise monoclonal antibodies, cytotoxic payloads with inherent antitumor activity, and specialized linkers connecting the two. In recent years, three ADCs, brentuximab vedotin, polatuzumab vedotin, and loncastuximab tesirine, have been approved and are already establishing their place in lymphoma treatment. As the efficacy and safety of ADCs have moved in synchrony with advances in their design, a plethora of novel ADCs have garnered growing interest as treatments. In this review, we provide an overview of the essential elements of ADC strategies in lymphoma and elucidate the up-to-date progress, current challenges, and novel targets of ADCs in this rapidly evolving field.

New Biomarkers of Hymenoptera Venom Allergy in a Group of Inflammation Factors. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18084011.

Abstract
Hymenoptera venom allergy significantly affects the quality of life. Due to the divergences in the results of the available test and clinical symptoms of patients, the current widely applied diagnostic methods are often insufficient to classify patients for venom immunotherapy (VIT). Therefore it is still needed to search for new, more precise, and accurate diagnostic methods. Hence, this research aimed to discover new biomarkers of Hymenoptera venom allergy in a group of inflammation factors using set of multi-marker Bioplex panel. The adoption of a novel methodology based on Luminex/xMAP enabled simultaneous determination of serum levels of 37 different inflammatory proteins in one experiment. The study involved 21 patients allergic to wasp and/or honey bee venom and 42 healthy participants. According to univariate and multivariate statistics, soluble CD30/tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 8 (sCD30/TNFRSF8), and the soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (sTNF-R1) may be considered as effective prognostic factors, their circulating levels were significantly decreased in the allergy group (p-value < 0.05; the Area Under the Curve (AUC) ~0.7; Variable Importance in Projection (VIP) scores >1.2). The obtained results shed new light on the allergic inflammatory response and may contribute to modification and improvement of the diagnostic and monitoring methods. Further, large-scale studies are still needed to explain mechanisms of action of studied compounds and to definitively prove their usefulness in clinical practice.
