Iyer SP, Johnston PB, Barta SK. Pralatrexate injection combined with CHOP for treatment of PTCL: results from the Fol-CHOP dose-finding phase 1 trial. Blood Adv 2024; 8:353-364. [PMID: 38029357 PMCID: PMC10788850 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2023011095] [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: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT Pralatrexate is a folate antagonist that selectively enters cells expressing reduced folate carrier type 1 and competitively inhibits dihydrofolate reductase, leading to interruption of RNA synthesis, DNA replication, and apoptosis. This phase 1 study was conducted to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of pralatrexate in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) regimen (part 1) and the response and pharmacokinetics of 6 cycles of this combination (CHOP + Folotyn 30 mg/m2 [Fol-CHOP]) in patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). In part 1, on days 1 and 8 of each cycle, patients were treated with 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 mg/m2 of pralatrexate in combination with CHOP, per dose escalation, in 5 sequential cohorts. No patients experienced DLTs in cohorts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The pralatrexate dose of 30 mg/m2 was selected to be combined with CHOP for part 2 and administered to 33 additional patients in the expansion cohort. At the MTD, the Fol-CHOP regimen was generally well tolerated in patients with PTCL, with an overall response rate (ORR) of 83.9% (20 complete response and 6 partial response), as assessed by treating investigators. Thirty-five patients (67.3%) experienced grade 3/4 treatment-emergent adverse events, the most common of which were anemia (21.2%), neutropenia (19.2%), febrile neutropenia (11.5%), fatigue, mucosal inflammation, nausea, and vomiting (7.7% each). In conclusion, Fol-CHOP was found to be a safe and effective treatment for newly diagnosed PTCL and deemed worthy of further investigation. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT02594267.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, a regulated cell death dependent on iron, has garnered attention as a potential broad-spectrum anticancer approach in leukemia research. However, there has been limited ferroptosis research on ATL, an aggressive T-cell malignancy caused by HTLV-1 infection. Our study employs bioinformatic analysis, utilizing dataset GSE33615, to identify 46 ferroptosis-related DEGs and 26 autophagy-related DEGs in ATL cells. These DEGs are associated with various cellular responses, chemical stress, and iron-related pathways. Autophagy-related DEGs are linked to autophagy, apoptosis, NOD-like receptor signaling, TNF signaling, and the insulin resistance pathway. PPI network analysis revealed 10 hub genes and related biomolecules. Moreover, we predicted crucial miRNAs, transcription factors, and potential pharmacological compounds. We also screened the top 20 medications based on upregulated DEGs. In summary, our study establishes an innovative link between ATL treatment and ferroptosis, offering promising avenues for novel therapeutic strategies in ATL.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a group of highly aggressive malignancies with generally poor prognoses, and the first-line chemotherapy of PTCL has limited efficacy. Currently, several novel targeted agents, including histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis), have been investigated to improve the therapeutic outcome of PTCLs. Several HDACis, such as romidepsin, belinostat, and chidamide, have demonstrated favorable clinical efficacy and safety in PTCLs. More novel HDACis and new combination therapies are undergoing preclinical or clinical trials. Mutation analysis based on next-generation sequencing may advance our understanding of the correlation between epigenetic mutation profiles and relevant targeted therapies. Multitargeted HDACis and HDACi-based prodrugs hold promising futures and offer further directions for drug design.

Front Oncol 2023; 13:1163190. [PMID: 37188182 PMCID: PMC10175683 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1163190] [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: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma (T-FHCL) derived from T-follicular helper (Tfh) cell falls into a heterogeneous category of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Due to the limited number of therapeutic regimens and limited first-line efficacy, T-FHCL has a poor prognosis, and there is an urgent need for effective targeted therapies. With advancements in sequencing technologies, especially single-cell sequencing and next-generation sequencing, more specific genetic aberrations characteristic of T-FHCL can be discovered, allowing for precise molecular diagnosis and specific research on novel agents. Many biomarker-targeting agents, used either alone or in combination, have been tested, and they have generally enhanced the therapeutic outcomes of T-FHCL. Histone deacetylase inhibitors achieve significant clinical benefits in the treatment of T-FHCL, especially in combination therapy. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T-cell) immunotherapies, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and other potential agents merit further study.

Abstract
T-Cell malignancies are a group of heterogeneous disorders composed of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs), peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs), and T-cell leukemias, including T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). Cases of patients with combined T-cell malignancies and plasma cell dyscrasias (PCD) are reported in the literature, but these are mostly limited to case reports or small case series with <10 patients. Here, we described the clinical course of 26 patients and report baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes including overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rates (ORRs) in this unique population. There was no survival difference in patients with CTCL or T-LGLL and concomitant PCD when treated with standard therapy directed at the T-cell malignancy when compared to historical controls. However, patients with PTCL and concomitant PCD had significantly inferior outcomes with rapid progression and worse OS and PFS at 1.7 years (p=0.006) and 4.8 months (p=0.08), respectively, when compared to historical controls for patients with PTCL, although the limited number of patients included in this analysis precludes drawing definitive conclusions. Treatment directed at the T-cell malignancy resulted in the eradication of the PCD clone in multiple patients (15.4%) including one with multiple myeloma (MM) who experienced a complete response after starting therapy directed at the T-cell malignancy. For patients with T-cell malignancies and concomitant PCD, treatment with standard T-cell-directed therapies is recommended based on this analysis with continued follow-up and monitoring of the concomitant PCD. Further studies are needed to definitively elucidate the increased risk of relapse in patients with PTCL and concomitant PCD, and larger, multi-center cohorts are needed to validate these findings across T-cell malignancies and PCDs.

Abstract
Background Belinostat is a histone deacetylase inhibitor approved for relapsed refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). The primary objective of this study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of belinostat combined with CHOP (Bel-CHOP). Secondary objectives included safety/tolerability, overall response rate (ORR), and belinostat pharmacokinetics (PK). Methods Patients were ≥ 18 years with histologically confirmed, previously untreated PTCL. Patients received belinostat (1000 mg/m2 once daily) + standard CHOP for 6 cycles with varying schedules using a 3 + 3 design in Part A. Part B enrolled patients at MTD dose. Results Twenty-three patients were treated. One patient experienced DLT (Grade 3 non-hematologic toxicity) on Day 1–3 schedule, resulting in escalation to Day 1–5 schedule (n = 3). No DLTs were observed and Day 1–5 schedule with 1000 mg/m2 was declared as MTD. Twelve additional patients were enrolled in Part B using MTD. Median relative dose intensity was 98%. All patients experienced adverse events (AEs), including nausea (78%), fatigue (61%), and vomiting (57%). Serious AEs occurred in 43%, with febrile neutropenia (17%) and pyrexia (13%). Overall ORR was 86% with 71% reported CR at MTD. Belinostat PK parameters were similar to single-agent. Conclusions Bel-CHOP was well tolerated and MTD in CHOP combination was the same dose and schedule as single agent dosing. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01839097.

Abstract
Although romidepsin as monotherapy appears to be useful for treating T-cell lymphoma, combined chemotherapy with other therapeutic agents is required for improvement of the treatment outcome. To establish safer and more effective regimens, systematic screening was conducted to identify suitable drugs to be used in combination with romidepsin for T-cell malignancies, and the underlying molecular mechanisms were examined. The most effective agent was tamoxifen. The combination of romidepsin and tamoxifen had a significant synergistic effect in inducing apoptosis. The growth-inhibitory effects of the combined treatment were reversed by α-tocopherol. FOXO1 expression was greatly upregulated in MOLT-4 cells treated with romidepsin plus tamoxifen. Knockdown of FOXO1 expression by siRNA significantly reduced the cell death induced by romidepsin plus tamoxifen. The combination of romidepsin and tamoxifen might be considered for the treatment of T-cell lymphoma patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) represents a heterogeneous and rare subgroup of aggressive lymphomas that generally demonstrate poor clinical outcomes with conventional treatment. Since the prognosis of PTCL is heterogeneous, more accurate risk assessment, and risk-adapted treatment strategies are required. In this study, we examined whether interim positron emission tomography (iPET)-computed tomography (PET/CT) results can be combined with baseline volume-based metabolic assessments including total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) for risk stratification in PTCL. METHODS The data of 63 patients with nodal PTCL, who had analyzable baseline PET/CT and iPET, were retrospectively reviewed. We calculated the baseline TMTV and TLG values. All iPET responses were analyzed using the Deauville 5-point scale. RESULTS On univariate analysis, a prognostic index for PTCL (PIT) higher than 2 (hazard ratio [HR], 2.03; P = .026), high TMTV (>389 cm3 ; HR, 2.24; P = .01), high TLG (>875; HR, 3.77; P = .0005), and positive iPET (HR, 2.18; P = .009) were significantly associated with poorer progression-free survival (PFS). On multivariate analysis, only high TLG and positive iPET independently predicted both poorer overall survival (OS) and PFS. A model combining TLG and iPET showed that patients with low TLG and negative iPET had superior outcomes, with a 5-year PFS and OS of 72% and 90%, respectively. Conversely, both 5-year PFS and OS for those with high TLG and positive iPET were 0%. CONCLUSIONS In summary, TLG combined with iPET predicted survival in PTCL more accurately. This information may help in the development of risk-adapted treatment strategies for PTCL.

Abstract
Objective: To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, safety, dosing, and administration of mogamulizumab for the treatment of T-cell lymphomas. Data Sources: A literature search of PubMed (1966 to September 2019) was conducted using the keywords mogamulizumab, KW-0761, and lymphoma. Data were also obtained from package inserts and meeting abstracts. Study Selection and Data Extraction: All relevant published articles, package inserts, and unpublished meeting abstracts on mogamulizumab for the treatment of T-cell lymphomas were reviewed. Data Synthesis: Mogamulizumab is an anti-CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) monoclonal antibody that has demonstrated activity in various T-cell lymphomas. It was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory mycosis fungoides (MF) or Sézary syndrome (SS) who have been treated with at least 1 prior line of therapy. Mogamulizumab demonstrated significant improvement in progression-free survival compared with vorinostat in patients with relapsed or refractory MF or SS. Serious adverse events associated with mogamulizumab include infusion-related reactions, cutaneous drug eruption, and autoimmune complications. Mogamulizumab administration in the preallogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant setting can increase the risk for severe posttransplant graft-versus-host disease. Relevance to Patient Care and Clinical Practice: Mogamulizumab is a first-in-class CCR4 inhibitor, providing a new option in the treatment of relapsed or refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. Although not currently FDA approved for this indication, mogamulizumab may have some utility for the treatment of relapsed adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. Conclusion: The recent approval of mogamulizumab represents an important addition to the armamentarium of pharmacotherapies for T-cell lymphomas.

90Y-NM600 targeted radionuclide therapy induces immunologic memory in syngeneic models of T-cell Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Commun Biol 2019; 2:79.

Abstract
Finding improved therapeutic strategies against T-cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL) remains an unmet clinical need. We implemented a theranostic approach employing a tumor-targeting alkylphosphocholine (NM600) radiolabeled with 86Y for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and 90Y for targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) of T-cell NHL. PET imaging and biodistribution performed in mouse models of T-cell NHL showed in vivo selective tumor uptake and retention of 86Y-NM600. An initial toxicity assessment examining complete blood counts, blood chemistry, and histopathology of major organs established 90Y-NM600 safety. Mice bearing T-cell NHL tumors treated with 90Y-NM600 experienced tumor growth inhibition, extended survival, and a high degree of cure with immune memory toward tumor reestablishment. 90Y-NM600 treatment was also effective against disseminated tumors, improving survival and cure rates. Finally, we observed a key role for the adaptive immune system in potentiating a durable anti-tumor response to TRT, especially in the presence of microscopic disease. Hernandez et al. show the effectiveness of 90Y for targeted radionucleotide therapy of T-cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma (NHL). This study suggests that delivering radiation to all NHL disease sites elicits minimal toxicity and induces a memory T-cell response, inviting combination therapies with immune activating agents.

Histone deacetylase inhibitors downregulate CCR4 expression and decrease mogamulizumab efficacy in CCR4-positive mature T-cell lymphomas. Haematologica 2017; 103:126-135. [PMID: 29025909 PMCID: PMC5777200 DOI: 10.3324/haematol.2017.177279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2017] [Accepted: 10/10/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Histone deacetylase inhibitors are promising agents for various T-cell lymphomas, including cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, peripheral T-cell lymphoma, and adult T-cell lymphoma/leukemia. CCR4 is an important therapeutic target molecule because mogamulizumab, an anti-CCR4 antibody, has shown promising efficacy against various T-cell lymphomas. In this study, we examined the in vitro synergistic effects of mogamulizumab and histone deacetylase inhibitors against various T-cell lymphomas. First, we examined the expression of CCR4 mRNA and surface CCR4 in various T-cell lymphoma cell lines and found that it was downregulated upon treatment with vorinostat, a pan-histone deacetylase inhibitor. Next, we used isoform-specific histone deacetylase inhibitors and short-interfering RNA to determine the histone deacetylase isoform involved in the regulation of CCR4, and demonstrated that romidepsin, a class I selective histone deacetylase inhibitor, reduced CCR4 most efficiently. Moreover, among class I histone deacetylases, histone deacetylase 2 knockdown led to a reduction of CCR4 in lymphoma cells, suggesting that CCR4 expression is mainly regulated by histone deacetylase 2. When we examined the CCR4 expression in skin samples from primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, obtained from the same patients before and after vorinostat treatment, we found that CCR4 expression was greatly reduced after treatment. Finally, when we conducted an antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity assay with mogamulizumab by using various lymphoma cells, we found that the efficacy of mogamulizumab was significantly reduced by pretreatment with vorinostat. Altogether, our results suggest that the primary use of histone deacetylase inhibitors before treatment with mogamulizumab might not be suitable to obtain synergistic effects. Moreover, these results have potential implications for optimal therapeutic sequences in various CCR4-positive T-cell lymphomas.

Abstract
Bendamustine has achieved widespread international regulatory approval and is a standard agent for the treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma. Since approval, the number of indications for bendamustine has expanded to include aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma and novel targeted therapies, based on new bendamustine regimens/combinations, are being developed against CLL and lymphomas. In 2010, an international panel of bendamustine experts met and published a set of recommendations on the safe and effective use of bendamustine in patients suffering from hematologic disorders. In 2014, this panel met again to update these recommendations since the clarification of issues including optimal dosing and management of bendamustine-related toxicities. The aim of this report is to communicate the latest consensus on the use of bendamustine, permitting the expansion of its safe and effective administration, particularly in new combination therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) comprises distinct tumor subtypes. Although mortality from NHL overall has changed dramatically in the United States over time, little is known about trends for subtypes, because death certificates do not record this information. METHODS Using data from U.S. Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) areas, we assessed NHL mortality rates and mapped NHL deaths to incident NHL cases in SEER cancer registries. This allowed us to evaluate population-level mortality trends attributed to specific NHL subtypes (incidence-based mortality; IBM). We also describe NHL incidence and survival after NHL diagnosis by calendar year. We used Joinpoint to identify years when IBM and incidence rate trends changed slope. RESULTS Overall NHL mortality rates increased during 1975-1997, peaking at 10.9 per 100,000 person-years, then decreased subsequently in 1997-2011. Overall IBM rates mirror this trend during 1990-2011. For B-cell NHL subtypes, IBM rates decreased beginning in the mid-1990s, with yearly declines of -3.0% for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), -2.7% for chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), and -5.3% for follicular lymphoma. Incidence rates for these subtypes did not decrease until after 2003. Corresponding 5-year cancer-specific survival increased dramatically over time for DLBCL (from 37%-66%), CLL/SLL (69%-84%), and follicular lymphoma (69%-82%). IBM for peripheral T-cell lymphoma was flat during 2006-2011, although incidence increased. CONCLUSIONS Mortality due to three common B-cell NHL subtypes has fallen over time in the United States. IMPACT This decline reflects better survival after NHL diagnosis, likely from improved therapies, because the decline in NHL incidence occurred later.

Primary treatment response rather than front line stem cell transplantation is crucial for long term outcome of peripheral T-cell lymphomas. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0121822. [PMID: 25815886 PMCID: PMC4376730 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0121822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2014] [Accepted: 02/04/2015] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Outcome of systemic peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) is unsatisfactory and no controlled clinical study guides the therapy. Phase II studies suggest to consolidate response achieved after front-line treatment with stem cell transplant (SCT). We retrospectively evaluate the impact of front-line SCT consolidation in a single Center cohort of 209 patients treated during the last two decades. Median age was 49 years (range 15-85) with a prevalence of male sex (61%), advanced stage (68%) while IPI was >2 in 44%. Primary treatment was MACOP-B (39%) CHO(E)P (39%), intensive regimens (18%) or others (4%). Complete response to primary treatment (i.e. before SCT) was 60% (5% partial remission). Forty-four patients further proceeded to SCT while 92 did not receive consolidation. Outcome of primary responders was good, with a 3-year overall survival of 74% (82% in ALCL ALK+ and 69% for the other histologies). By multivariate analysis a better overall survival was significantly associated with IPI<2 (P=0.001), primary response (P=0.000), and ALCL ALK+ (P=0.012). The multivariate analysis performed on responders, showed that only IPI was predictive of a better survival while ALCL ALK+ and undergoing SCT were not. Response to primary treatment rather than post-remission programs is the crucial determinant of PTCL outcome.

Abstract
Prognosis of peripheral and other advanced T cell lymphomas is poor. 20 patients with a median age of 46.4 (range 20.5-64.1) years were treated with autoSCT (n = 6) or alloSCT (n = 14) from 1996 to 2013. All patients were at high risk either due to the IPI-score or to the fact that SCT was part of a salvage therapy. Conditioning prior to alloSCT was myeloablative in seven cases (50 %). The patients were pretreated with 8.5 (median, range 2-38) cycles of chemotherapy. Ten patients are alive in CR after a median follow-up of 1.3 years (range 0.1-13.3). OS was 53 % after one and 40 % after 10 years. Best survival was reached after related alloSCT (80 % at 10 years) compared to other modalities. GvHD did not influence survival. AlloSCT from related donors can cure patients from T-cell lymphomas. Unrelated alloSCT or high-dose therapy and autoSCT are an option for patients without a familiar donor.

Abstract
A 59-year old male had odynophagia and globus sensation for 10 days prior to his visit. Endoscopically, a fungating mass was observed in the right side of the tongue base (BOT). The peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) was confirmed by a punch biopsy. The patient was classified as stage IIA according to the Ann Arbor staging classification. Radiation therapy (RT) using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VAMT) began after 8 cycles of CHOP chemotherapy. Although the patient achieved a complete remission without RT relating morbidity during the follow-up period, recurrence occurred in the right orbit at 3 months after treatment. The patient received RT with high energy electron on the right orbit. The salvage chemotherapy was followed by RT. The patient died of aggravation of PTCL at 17 months after VMAT. We report a poor prognostic case of PTCL in BOT with chemotherapy followed by RT.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy followed by transplantation of autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells has a proven track record of safety and efficacy in hematological malignancies and select solid tumors. The near-universal use of peripheral blood stem cells as source for autografts, routine growth factor support, and antimicrobial prophylaxis post transplantation has improved the safety of this procedure. However, the advent of highly active novel therapies in the last few years warrants reappraisal of the role of autologous transplantation in the therapeutic armamentarium of malignant disorder. This review summarizes the current role of autologous transplantation for hematological malignancies, discusses modern standards for patient selection, and highlights long-term care issues of transplant survivors from an internist's perspective. Role of tumor purging in autologous transplantation, novel transplant conditioning regimens, and post-transplant therapies to prevent disease relapse are reviewed.

Abstract
Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare complication of malignant lymphoma. The current study describes a case of GBS in a patient with peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS). A 47-year-old male was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Zhengzhou, China) with systemic multiple subcutaneous nodules and was diagnosed with stage IV high-grade PTCL-NOS (according to the Revised European American Lymphoma Classification). During chemotherapy, severe infection and progressive flaccid quadriparesis appeared, which eventually developed to respiratory muscles paralysis. The clinical course and neurological examination were consistent with GBS. Following mechanical ventilation and intravenous immunoglobulin administration, the neurological symptoms were in remission after one month. Three months later, the patient achieved complete remission without any treatment during this period. We hypothesized that immune reconstruction may have a significant role in this phenomenon.

Abstract
FAS-associated protein with death domain (FADD) is a major adaptor protein involved in extrinsic apoptosis, embryogenesis, and lymphocyte homeostasis. Although abnormalities of the FADD/death receptor apoptotic pathways have been established in tumorigenesis, fewer studies have analyzed the expression and role of phosphorylated FADD (pFADD). Our identification of FADD as a lymphoma-associated autoantigen in T-cell lymphoma patients raises the possibility that pFADD, with its correlation with cell cycle, may possess role(s) in human T-cell lymphoma development. This immunohistochemical study investigated pFADD protein expression in a range of normal tissues and lymphomas, particularly T-cell lymphomas that require improved therapies. Whereas pFADD was expressed only in scattered normal T cells, it was detected at high levels in T-cell lymphomas (eg, 84% anaplastic large cell lymphoma and 65% peripheral T cell lymphomas, not otherwise specified). The increased expression of pFADD supports further study of its clinical relevance and role in lymphomagenesis, highlighting phosphorylation of FADD as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) represents a relatively rare group of heterogeneous non-Hodgkin lymphomas with a very poor prognosis. Current therapies, based on historical regimens for aggressive B-cell lymphomas, have resulted in insufficient patient outcomes. The majority of patients relapse rapidly, and current 5-year overall survival rates are only 10-30%. It is evident that new approaches to treat patients with PTCL are required. In recent years, prospective studies in PTCL have been initiated, mainly in patients with relapsed/refractory disease. In some of these, selected histologic subtypes have been evaluated in detail. As a consequence, numerous new therapies have been developed and shown activity in PTCL, including: agents targeting the immune system (e.g. brentuximab vedotin, alemtuzumab, lenalidomide); histone deacetylase inhibitors (romidepsin, belinostat); antifolates (pralatrexate); fusion proteins (denileukin diftitox); nucleoside analogs (pentostatin, gemcitabine); and other agents (e.g. alisertib, plitidepsin, bendamustine, bortezomib). A variety of interesting novel combinations is also emerging. It is hoped that these innovative approaches, coupled with a greater understanding of the clinicopathologic features, pathogenesis, molecular biology, and natural history of PTCL will advance the field and improve outcomes in this challenging group of diseases. This review summarizes the currently available clinical evidence on the various approaches to treating relapsed/refractory PTCL, including the role of stem cell transplantation, with an emphasis on potential new drug therapies.

Abstract
SUMMARY Nodal peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are very aggressive tumors characterized by poor response to conventional chemotherapy and dismal prognosis. Recent evidence has indicated that, at least for patients aged less than 60 years, frontline high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation can be an effective strategy. Unfortunately, however, a significant fraction of patients cannot benefit from this approach, due to age, poor performance status or early relapse. In addition, a percentage of transplanted patients eventually relapse. In this article, based on their experience and on the most recent literature, the authors review the current concept on PTCL treatment, focusing on the most common PTCL nodal subtypes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This retrospective cohort analysis was conducted to examine the cost components of administering IV chemotherapy to peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) patients in the US to inform decision makers. METHODS Patients diagnosed with PTCL (ICD-9 code 202.7X) between 1 October 2007 and 30 September 2012 were identified from a US administrative claims database. Costs for patients receiving at least one NCCN recommended IV chemotherapy were assessed using the allowed payment from claim line items, categorized into cost components (study drug costs, IV administration costs and other visit-related services). RESULTS The mean costs to the payer for IV cancer therapy administration in a PTCL patient population averaged about $5735 per visit and $9356 per member per month (PMPM). Across all therapies, mean IV administration costs accounted for $127-$794 per visit and $594-$1808 PMPM, contributing an additional 2-32% to the total costs of the drug alone. Mean other visit-related services costs for treating PTCL accounted for $70-$2487 per visit and $444-$3094 PMPM, contributing an additional 2-74% to the total costs. Combined, these additional costs represent an additional mean cost of $220-$3150 per visit and $1193-$4609 PMPM to the base price of the drug alone. LIMITATIONS This study used a convenience sample to identify PTCL patients and only included visits where at least one NCCN recommended IV chemotherapy was administered. CONCLUSIONS The costs of IV administration and other visit-related services add measurable costs to the total cost of IV therapy for treating PTCL. When considering the cost of the drug, these additional costs can represent a substantial proportion of the overall costs and must be considered when evaluating the costs of IV treatment options for PTCL.

Abstract
PURPOSE CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) is expressed by peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) and is associated with poor outcomes. Mogamulizumab (KW-0761) is a defucosylated humanized anti-CCR4 antibody engineered to exert potent antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. This multicenter phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of mogamulizumab in patients with relapsed PTCL and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). PATIENTS AND METHODS Mogamulizumab (1.0 mg/kg) was administered intravenously once per week for 8 weeks to patients with relapsed CCR4-positive PTCL or CTCL. The primary end point was the overall response rate, and the secondary end points included safety, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS A total of 38 patients were enrolled, and 37 patients received mogamulizumab. Objective responses were noted for 13 of 37 patients (35%; 95% CI, 20% to 53%), including five patients (14%) with complete response. The median PFS was 3.0 months (95% CI, 1.6 to 4.9 months), and the median OS was not calculated. The mean maximum and trough mogamulizumab concentrations (± standard deviation) after the eighth infusion were 45.9 ± 9.3 and 29.0 ± 13.3 μg/mL, respectively. The most common adverse events were hematologic events, pyrexia, and skin disorders, all of which were reversible and manageable. CONCLUSION Mogamulizumab exhibited clinically meaningful antitumor activity in patients with relapsed PTCL and CTCL, with an acceptable toxicity profile. Further investigation of mogamulizumab for treatment of T-cell lymphoma is warranted.

Abstract
T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs) are a heterogeneous group of malignancies that represent 10%-15% of all NHLs. The prognosis of relapsed T-cell NHL is poor, especially for those relapsing after an autologous (auto-) or allogeneic (allo-) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Disease relapse post auto-HCT is best managed on a clinical trial. In the absence of an investigational protocol, the choice of salvage therapies should take into account patient performance status, eligibility for an allo-HCT, and surface CD30 expression. CD30-directed therapies or aggressive salvage regimens can be used as a bridge to allo-HCT in medically fit patients. In the elderly or more infirm patients, single-agent therapies could be offered, aiming at palliation. Similarly, relapse after an allo-HCT is not uncommon and is a real challenge. Reduction in ongoing immune suppression or donor lymphocyte infusion are often considered in this setting to augment graft-versus-lymphoma (GVL) effects and can occasionally provide durable disease control. Clinical trials designed to investigate novel therapeutic agents with immunomodulatory properties to augment GVL effects (eg, histone deacetylase [HDAC] inhibitors, proteasome inhibitor, lenalidomide) or targeted therapies (eg, aurora A kinase inhibitors, anaplastic lymphoma kinase [ALK] inhibitors) are sorely needed to improve the dismal outcomes of T-cell NHL relapsing after an allo-HCT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A number of novel therapies are under investigation in relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL); however, their relative impact on outcome is unknown. We examined the survival of patients with PTCL after relapse or progression in the absence of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation and explored factors influencing survival. The three most common subtypes encountered in North America were evaluated: PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), and anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL; anaplastic lymphoma kinase [ALK] positive and ALK negative. PATIENTS AND METHODS After exclusions, 153 patients were analyzed (PTCL-NOS, n = 79 [52%]; AITL, n = 38 [25%]; ALK-positive ALCL, n = 11 [7%]; ALK-negative ALCL, n = 27 [16%; including ALK status unknown, n = 1]). RESULTS Median time from initial diagnosis to relapse or progression after primary therapy was 6.7 months, and median age at relapse was 66 years (ALK-positive ALCL, 39 years). Median overall survival (OS) and median progression-free survival (PFS) after relapse or progression (second PFS) were 5.5 and 3.1 months, respectively, and were only marginally better in patients who received chemotherapy at relapse (n = 89 [58%]; 6.5 and 3.7 months, respectively). Patients with good performance status (PS) of 0 or 1 (n = 47) at relapse who received chemotherapy had a more favorable OS (P < .001; median OS, 13.7 months) and PFS (P = .006; median second PFS, 5.0 months), which remained significant in multivariate analysis (OS: hazard ratio [HR], 2.09; P = .002; second PFS: HR, 1.66; P = .030). CONCLUSION Most patients with relapsed or refractory PTCL have poor outcomes with short survival. Select patients with good PS have more favorable outcomes with standard chemotherapy.

Abstract
This report is a retrospective analysis of 65 patients with peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL), who underwent high-dose therapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHCT) as a consolidation of first response achieved with either induction or salvage chemotherapy. We intended to determine the prognostic factors that influenced outcome after autoHCT and to define the predictive value of the scoring systems most often applied for transplant outcomes. Nineteen patients in either complete or partial remission underwent autoHCT after induction chemotherapy. Forty-six patients received second-line chemotherapy as a consolidation of partial response after induction chemotherapy (n = 34) or as a salvage therapy after primary induction failure (n = 12), and thereafter proceeded to autoHCT. Finally, the 36 patients were in complete remission, and 29 in partial remission at autoHCT. The median follow-up of survivors was 53 months (range 7–157 months). The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival for all patients were 61.5 % (95 % CI 47.0–74.2 %) and 59.4 % (95 % CI 46.1–71.5 %), respectively. In multivariate analysis, bone marrow involvement at diagnosis and less than partial remission after induction chemotherapy were factors independently predictive for overall survival and progression-free survival. The prognostic index for PTCL could reliably stratify the prognosis of PTCL in this analysis.

Efficacy of a dose-intensified CHOP (Double-CHOP) regimen for peripheral T-cell lymphomas. Oncol Rep 2013; 29:805-11.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, often resulting in poor prognoses. The CHOP chemotherapy regimen, which includes cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone, has been used previously to treat other types of lymphomas. Here, we examined the efficacy and safety of a dose-intensified CHOP regimen (Double-CHOP), which was followed by autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) or high-dose methotrexate (HDMTX), in PTCL patients. Twenty-eight PTCL patients, who received 3 courses of Double-CHOP at our institution, were retrospectively studied from 1996 to 2012. Patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALK+-ALCL) were excluded from this study. The median age of patients was 58 years (range: 17-69). They had low-intermediate (n=11), high-intermediate (n=10) or high (n=7) risk according to the International Prognostic Index (IPI). The overall complete remission (CR) rate following Double-CHOP treatment was 68%. Of the CR patients, 10 successfully tolerated a consolidated high-dose chemotherapy followed by ASCT and 7 received HDMTX. A single case of treatment-related mortality was recorded during the study. On a median 31-month follow-up, the estimated 3- or 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 68 or 63%, respectively, while 3- or 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rates after CR were 60 or 43%, respectively. Although this study included elderly and excluded low-risk IPI and ALK+-ALCL patients, OS results were superiorly favourable, indicating the efficacy of this Double-CHOP regimen. However, an effective treatment strategy for refractory or relapsing patients needs to be validated and established.

Abstract
The initial response of lymphoid malignancies to glucocorticoids (GCs) is a critical parameter predicting successful treatment. Although being known as a strong inducer of apoptosis in lymphoid cells for almost a century, the signaling pathways regulating the susceptibility of the cells to GCs are only partly revealed. There is still a need to develop clinical tests that can predict the outcome of GC therapy. In this paper, I discuss important parameters modulating the pro-apoptotic effects of GCs, with a specific emphasis on the microRNA world comprised of small players with big impacts. The journey through the multifaceted complexity of GC-induced apoptosis brings forth explanations for the differential treatment response and raises potential strategies for overcoming drug resistance.

Abstract
Mixed chimerism is a promising approach toward generating donor-specific immunological tolerance. However, chimerism induction can be toxic; therefore, there is an effort to develop non-myeloablative, minimal intensity protocols that can generate chimerism without the toxic side effects. Recently, with the goal of creating a minimalistic chimerism induction protocol in the tolerance resistant non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse model, we identified pre-existing T cells as cells that resist fully allogeneic chimerism. With monoclonals targeting NOD T cells, we showed that long-term chimerism and tolerance toward donor islets could be established. However, this promising new protocol relied on the administration of a single dose of anti-CD40 ligand, which is not clinically applicable. In refining protocols to move even closer to clinical utility, we report here initial success at generating fully allogeneic mixed chimerism in NOD mice by adding cyclophosphamide to the conditioning regimen in place of anti-CD40 ligand antibodies.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a diverse group of rare non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) that carry a poor prognosis and are in need of effective therapies. Alisertib (MLN8237) an investigational agent that inhibits Aurora A Ser/Thr kinase has shown activity in PTCL patients. Here we demonstrate that aurora A and B are highly expressed in T-cell lymphoma cell lines. In PTCL patient samples aurora A was positive in 3 of 24 samples and co-expressed with aurora B. Aurora B was positive in tumor cells in 22 of 32 samples. Of the subtypes of PTCL, aurora B was over-expressed in PTCL (NOS) [73%], T-NHL [100%], ALCL (Alk-Neg) [100%] and AITL [100%]. Treatment with MLN8237 inhibited PTCL cell proliferation in CRL-2396 and TIB-48 cells with an IC50 of 80-100nM. MLN8237 induced endo-reduplication in a dose and time dependent manner in PTCL cell lines leading to apoptosis demonstrated by flow cytometry and PARP-cleavage at concentrations achieved in early phase clinical trials. Moreover, inhibition of HisH3 and aurora A phosphorylation was dose dependent and strongly correlated with endo-reduplication. The data provide a sound rationale for aurora inhibition in PTCL as a therapeutic modality and warrants clinical trial evaluation.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) represents a relatively rare group of heterogeneous non-Hodgkin lymphomas, with generally poor prognosis. Historically, there has been a lack of consensus regarding appropriate therapeutic measures for the disease, with conventional frontline chemotherapies being utilized in most cases. Following promising results obtained in 2009, the methotrexate analogue, pralatrexate, became the first drug to gain US FDA approval for the treatment of refractory PTCL. This antimetabolite was designed to have a higher affinity for reduced folate carrier (RFC) and folylpolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS). RFC is the principal transporter for cell entrance of folates and antifolates. Once inside the cell, pralatrexate is efficiently polyglutamated by FPGS. Pralatrexate has demonstrated varying degrees of efficacy in peripheral T-cell lymphoma, with response rates differing between the multiple subtypes of the disease. While phase III studies are still to be completed, early clinical trials indicate that pralatrexate is promising new therapeutic for PTCL.
