Clinical and Biomarker Characteristic of Lymphoma Patients in Hasan Sadikin Lymphoma Registry. J Blood Med 2024; 15:341-349. [PMID: 39132284 PMCID: PMC11314504 DOI: 10.2147/jbm.s472791] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background No specific data have been systematically collected regarding lymphoma patient characteristics, while non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is identified as the 7th most common cancer and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is the 28th. Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis and progression of lymphoma. Malnutrition is an adverse prognostic factor in lymphoma. Systemic Inflammatory Index (SII), Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), and Advanced Lung Cancer Inflammation Index (ALI) were biomarkers depicting inflammation and nutritional status. This study aims to describe the clinical and biomarker characteristics of both HL and NHL patients. Methods This descriptive study used a cross-sectional design, and data were collected from Hasan Sadikin Hospital lymphoma registry from January 2020 to November 2023. Demographic, staging, and histopathological data were extracted. Three biomarkers were evaluated. Survival curves were drawn using Kaplan-Meier curve analysis, and the log rank test was used for comparison of survival between early and advanced stage. Results A total of 271 patients were recruited as participants, and the majority (80.5%) had NHL, with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) being the most common histopathological type (50.5%). Early disease was observed in two-thirds of patients, and low-risk International Prognostic Index (IPI) score was the most common prognostic score found (95%). SII was slightly higher in early compared to advanced stages. Treatment response was evaluated from 101 patients, and complete response was observed in 44.5%. Two-year overall survival (OS) was 93.1%, with median survival 22.7 (95% CI 21.9-23.5) months. In early stage, the median survival was slightly longer than in advanced stage [23.0 (95% CI 22.2-23.8) vs 21.6 (95% CI 19.3-23.8) months, P=0.09]. Conclusion Hodgkin lymphoma and DLBCL had similar clinical and biomarker characteristics. There were slight differences between the three biomarkers SII, ALI, and PNI based on the disease stage. Almost all patients still survived at 2-year follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We used the comprehensive definition of AYA (age 15 to 39 years) to update 5-year relative survival (RS) estimates for AYAs in Europe and across countries and to evaluate improvements in survival over time. METHODS We used data from EUROCARE-6. We analysed 700,000 AYAs with cancer diagnosed in 2000-2013 (follow-up to 2014). We focused the analyses on the 12 most common cancers in AYA. We used period analysis to estimate 5-year RS in Europe and 5-year RS differences in 29 countries (2010-2014 period estimate) and over time (2004-06 vs. 2010-14 period estimates). FINDINGS 5-year RS for all AYA tumours was 84%, ranging from 70% to 90% for most of the 12 tumours analysed. The exceptions were acute lymphoblastic leukaemia, acute myeloid leukaemia, and central nervous system tumours, presenting survival of 59%, 61%, and 62%, respectively. Differences in survival were observed among European countries for all cancers, except thyroid cancers and ovarian germ-cell tumours. Survival improved over time for most cancers in the 15- to 39-year-old age group, but for fewer cancers in adolescents and 20- to 29-year-olds. INTERPRETATION This is the most comprehensive study to report the survival of 12 cancers in AYAs in 29 European countries. We showed variability in survival among countries most likely due to differences in stage at diagnosis, access to treatment, and lack of referral to expert centres. Survival has improved especially for haematological cancers. Further efforts are needed to improve survival for other cancers as well, especially in adolescents.

Lymphoid blood cancers, incidence and survival 2005-2023: A report from the UK's Haematological Malignancy Research Network. Cancer Epidemiol 2024; 88:102513. [PMID: 38160571 DOI: 10.1016/j.canep.2023.102513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Population-based information on cancer incidence and outcome are required to inform clinical practice and research; but contemporary data are lacking for many lymphoid cancer subtypes. METHODS Set within a socio-demographically representative UK population of ∼4 million, data are from an established UK patient cohort (N = 22,414 diagnoses). Information on incidence (crude and age-standardised) and survival (overall and net) is presented for > 40 subtypes. RESULTS The median diagnostic age was 69.9 years (interquartile range 59.1-78.3), but unlike many other cancers, lymphoid malignancies can be diagnosed at any age; different subtypes dominating at different ages. Males were more likely to be diagnosed than females (age-standardised sex rate ratio: 1.55 (95% Confidence Interval: 1.50,1.59)), and most subtypes had a male predominance, some more than three-fold (e.g. Burkitt lymphoma 3.26 (2.42, 4.40)). Five-year net survival estimates varied hugely, ranging from 97.4% (95% CI: 56.5, 99.9) in patients with hairy cell leukaemia to 31.6% (95% CI: 2.5, 69.8) in those with T-cell prolymphocytic leukaemia. No significant sex difference in survival were observed for the majority of diagnoses; one exception being classical Hodgkin lymphoma, where males had a higher mortality (Excess Mortality Ratio: 1.44 (95% CI: 1.11, 1.87)). An improvement in survival over time was observed for some, but not all, of the major diagnostic groups. CONCLUSIONS Marked incidence and survival variations by subtype, sex and age confirm the heterogeneity of lymphoid neoplasms and highlight the importance of accurately characterising disease entities. Despite recent improvements, routine cancer registration of lymphoid neoplasms remains challenging and new issues continue to emerge; including the lack of an international consensus on classification and the recording of progressions and transformations. Furthermore, the increasing need for additional molecular and genomic information required for accurate classification is likely to impact negatively on the quality of cancer registration data, especially in low income countries.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to determine if sex differences in abdominal visceral fat composition and metabolism can help predict the prognosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 117 DLBCL patients. The area and metabolic activity of subcutaneous adipose tissue and visceral adipose tissue were measured using CT and PET imaging. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was employed to evaluate the effect of these parameters on progression-free survival. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to determine the effects of relative visceral fat area (rVFA) on sex-specific survival. RESULTS Females with an rVFA greater than the optimal threshold of 35 % and a visceral-to-subcutaneous adipose tissue ratio (V/S) >3.24 had worse progression-free survival (p = 0.01, 0.001, respectively). No rVFA or V/S were identified in significantly stratified males with DLBCL (p = 0.249 and 0.895, respectively). Combining the changes in rVFA and V/S identified a subgroup of females with high rVFA and V/S values and exceptionally poor outcomes. The rVFA was a significant predictor of DLBCL progression in females alone. CONCLUSION Once female DLBCL patients accumulate fat over the tolerable range in the visceral area, they might be at an increased risk of progression (hazard ratio, 3.87; 95 % CI, 1.81-12.69, p = 0.02). Sex differences in visceral fat composition and metabolism may provide a new risk stratification system for patients with DLBCL.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop comprehensive nomograms for patients with head and neck non-Hodgkin lymphoma (H&NNHL) to determine their overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). In this study, 602 H&NNHL patients were analyzed from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. The R software was used to randomly divide the patients into the training cohort (n = 421) and the validation cohort (n = 181) in a 7-to-3 ratio. To develop nomograms for projecting OS and CSS, multivariable Cox regression was used to acquire independent predictive factors. We have constructed nomograms to predict the 3-, 5-, and 8-year OS and CSS probabilities of H&NNHL patients. The consistency index of the nomograms for OS (CSS) was 0.74 (0.778) and 0.734 (0.775), in the training and validation cohort respectively, and was higher than that of the Ann Arbor staging system. Calibration plotting showed that our models have good calibration ability. Moreover, assessments of the area under the time-dependent receiver operating characteristics curve, net reclassification improvement, integrated discrimination improvement and decision curve analysis demonstrated that our nomograms performed better and were more clinically useful than the Ann Arbor staging system. This is the first research to establish comprehensive nomograms for predicting OS and CSS in patients with H&NNHL at 3-, 5-, and 8-year. The validation of the models demonstrated good performance. It can provide clinicians with reference information for determining customized clinical treatment options and providing personalized prognoses. Indexes such as the concordance index, the area under the time-dependent receiver operating characteristics curve, calibration curves, the net reclassification improvement, the integrated discrimination improvement, and decision-curve analysis were used to compare new survival models to the classical Ann Arbor staging system.

Abstract
Background Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is one of the dominant malignancies in the hematological system. This study estimated secular trends in NHL incidence and mortality from 1990 to 2019 and provided comprehensive evaluations of potential age, period, and cohort effects. Methods Age-period-cohort (APC) model was used to analyze changes in NHL incidence and mortality with age, period, and birth cohort effects based on data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. Results The age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR) of NHL rose by 144.6% and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) rose by 27.5% from 1990 to 2019. Local drift for incidence was greater than 0 (p< 0.05) for both genders in each age group. Local drift for mortality rates were greater than 0 (p< 0.05) for males aged 20 to 89 years and females aged 60 to 84 years and less than 0 (p< 0.05) for females aged 20 to 50 years. Period rate ratio (RR) and cohort RR of NHL incidence in China showed an increasing trend, while the trend of male and female mortality was not consistent. Conclusions NHL incidence and mortality rates have been increasing in China over the past three decades. Males and older individuals were at high risk for NHL. Thus, attention to the prevention and therapy of NHL would be essential to lessen the disease burden of NHL.

Sex differences in lymphoma incidence and mortality by subtype: A population-based study. Am J Hematol 2023; 98:23-30. [PMID: 36178436 PMCID: PMC10092431 DOI: 10.1002/ajh.26744] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
It is well established that the male sex is associated with increased risk for, as well as poorer survival of, most cancers. A similar pattern has been described in lymphomas but has not yet been comprehensively assessed. In this nationwide population-based cohort study, we used the Swedish Lymphoma Register to investigate sex differences in lymphoma subtype incidence and excess mortality in adults (age 18-99) diagnosed in 2000-2019. Male-to-female incidence rate ratios (IRRs) and excess mortality ratios (EMRs) adjusted for age and calendar year were predicted using Poisson regression. We identified 36 795 lymphoma cases, 20 738 (56.4%) in men and 16 057 (43.6%) in women. Men were at significantly higher risk of 14 out of 16 lymphoma subtypes with IRRs ranging from 1.15 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-1.22) in follicular lymphoma to 5.95 (95% CI 4.89-7.24) in hairy cell leukemia. EMRs >1 were seen in 13 out of 16 lymphoma subtypes indicating higher mortality in men, although only statistically significant for classical Hodgkin lymphoma 1.26 (95% CI 1.04-1.54), aggressive lymphoma not otherwise specified 1.29 (95% CI 1.08-1.55), and small lymphocytic lymphoma 1.52 (95% CI 1.11-2.07). A corresponding analysis using data from the Danish Lymphoma Register was performed with comparable results. In conclusion, we demonstrate a significantly higher incidence and trend toward higher mortality in men for most lymphoma subtypes. Future studies with large patient material that include detailed clinicopathological prognostic factors are warranted to further delineate and explain sex differences in lymphoma survival to enable optimal management of lymphoma patients regardless of sex.

Abstract
The incidence of aggressive B-cell lymphomas increases with age, but for elderly or frail patients not eligible for doxorubicin-containing treatment standard therapy remains to be defined. In this prospective, multicenter, phase-2 B-R-ENDA trial, we investigated the feasibility, toxicity, and efficacy of 8 cycles rituximab combined with 6 cycles bendamustine (BR) in elderly or frail aggressive B-cell lymphoma patients: 39 patients aged >80 years and 29 patients aged 61-80 years with elevated Cumulative Illness Rating Scalescore >6 were included. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 2 years were 45% (95% confidence interval [CI], 28%-61%) and 46% (28%-63%) for the patients age >80, as well 32% (13%-51%) and 37% (17%-57%) for frail patients age 64-80, respectively. In a preplanned retrospective analysis, we found no significant differences in PFS and OS comparing the outcome of the 39 patients age >80 years with 40 patients aged 76-80 years treated with 6xR-CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisolone) and 2 x rituximab in the RICOVER-60 trial (DSHNHL 1999-1, NCT00052936, EU-20243), yet we detected lower rates of infections and treatment-related deaths in the BR-treated patients. We demonstrate that older and frail patients with aggressive B-cell lymphoma who are not able to receive standard CHOP-based therapy can benefit from anthracycline-free therapy as a feasible and effective therapeutic option.

Drug Repurposing Applications to Overcome Male Predominance via Targeting G2/M Checkpoint in Human Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14235854. [PMID: 36497337 PMCID: PMC9741366 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14235854] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is strongly characterized by a male predominance with higher mortality rates and worse responses to treatment in males versus females. Despite the role of sex hormones, other causes that may contribute to sex bias in ESCC remain largely unknown, especially as age increases and the hormone difference begins to diminish between sexes. In this study, we analyzed genomics, transcriptomics, and epigenomics from 663 ESCC patients and found that G2/M checkpoint pathway-related sex bias and age bias were significantly present in multi-omics data. In accordance with gene expression patterns across sexes, ten compounds were identified by applying drug repurposing from three drug sensitivity databases: The Connective Map (CMap), Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC), and The Cancer Therapeutic Response Portal (CTRP). MK1775 and decitabine showed better efficacy in two male ESCC cell lines in vitro and in vivo. The drugs' relevance to the transition between G2 and M was especially evident in male cell lines. In our study, we first validated the sex bias of the G2/M checkpoint pathway in ESCC and then determined that G2/M targets may be included in combination therapy for male patients to improve the efficacy of ESCC treatment.

Abstract
Background: Accurate detection of bone marrow involvement (BMI) in lymphoma is important as it signifies stage 4 disease. Staging bone marrow examination (BME), therefore, influences treatment decisions and prognostication. The prevalence of BMI depends on multiple factors at presentation including lymphoma subtype, age, sex, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status and haematological parameters.Aim: To determine risk factors for BMI in lymphoma staging.Setting: The study was conducted in the department of haematological pathology, Tygerberg Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa.Methods: Retrospective cross-sectional descriptive study in adult patients, reviewing BMI and associated parameters, during their initial lymphoma staging procedure between 2016 and 2019.Results: Of a total of 387 lymphoma staging cases that were evaluated, 30.0% of them showed BMI. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and high-grade B-cell lymphoma were the most frequent subtypes diagnosed. The highest prevalence of BMI was in low-grade lymphomas. There was a statistically significant association between BMI and advanced age, pancytopenia and bicytopenia (anaemia with leucopenia, anaemia with thrombocytopenia or leucopenia with thrombocytopenia). Bicytopenia and pancytopenia showed high positive predictive values of BMI, respectively, 61.0% and 69.0%. Human immunodeficiency virus positivity (34.6%) was not predictive of BMI across all lymphoma subtypes. Normal blood counts had a high negative predictive value for BMI.Conclusion: BME remains an important part of lymphoma staging with 30.0% of all lymphomas showing BMI.

Abstract
Background: Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) has received more attention because of an inferior prognosis. Less is known about the incidence rate, histological type, and survival rate of PCNSL, especially in the 2010s. Methods: Data of PCNSL from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) registry database (SEER 9 registries and SEER 18 registries) were used. Incidence was estimated by age, gender, race, site, and histological type. Trends were analyzed using joinpoint regression and described as annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). Five-year overall survival estimates were compared using log-rank tests. Results: Most PCNSL occurred in the brain, followed by the spinal cord. The most frequent histological type of PCNSL was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, followed by marginal zone lymphoma. Incidence rate increased from 0.1/100,000 to 0.5/100,000 with an AAPC of 5.3% from 1975 to 2017. Incidence rates varied greatly between the younger and older age population. The 5-year overall survival rates in SEER 9 registries and SEER 18 registries were 30.5% and 37.4%, respectively. Even though the 5-year overall survival rate significantly increased from 27.9% for the 1975–1979 time period to 44.8% for the 2010–2017 time period, survival benefit could not be expected for patients ⩾60 years. The 5-year survival rate for elderly patients was about 30% in the 2010s. Conclusion: With aging, the incidence of PCNSL in the elderly is increased. Over the past decade, no advances have been made in the treatment of elderly PCNSL. Prospective trials with PCNSL are warranted to improve the survival of elderly patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Treatment options in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) failing ibrutinib are limited, with no standard therapies defined. This study aimed to investigate real-world treatment patterns and outcomes for patients with MCL following ibrutinib. METHODS This study utilized a de-identified hospital-based claims database (Medical Data Vision) in Japan. Eligible patients were adults who were diagnosed with MCL and had received antitumor drugs between December 2010 and July 2020. Patients were followed from the first antitumor drug treatment until the end of available data up to July 2021. Time-to-event analyses utilized the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors for receiving post-ibrutinib therapy were explored with logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Of the 1386 patients who started antitumor drug therapy, 247 patients received and discontinued ibrutinib at any line of therapy. Among them, 137 patients (55.5%) received subsequent therapy. The median age at the end of ibrutinib therapy was 77 (range 42-95), and 44 patients had a dependent activity of daily living (ADL). Factors negatively associated with receiving post-ibrutinib therapy after discontinuation of ibrutinib were age ≥ 75 years (odds ratio [95% CI] 0.46 [0.26-0.80]) and emergency hospital admissions (0.37 [0.17-0.84]). Immediate post-ibrutinib therapy regimens were highly diverse, with BR (bendamustine, rituximab) only prescribed in more than 10% of patients. The median duration of post-ibrutinib therapy was 1.5 months (95% CI 1.07-2.07). The median overall survival from the end of ibrutinib therapy in patients regardless of the receipt of post-ibrutinib therapy (n = 247), in those who did not receive post-ibrutinib therapy (n = 110), and in those who received post-ibrutinib therapy (n = 137) was 5.6 months (95% CI 3.8-8.7), 2.3 months (95% CI 1.2-3.9), and 8.7 months (95% CI 5.6-13.8), respectively. The most common adverse event during post-ibrutinib therapy was infection, with the use of anti-infectives (17%). CONCLUSIONS Patients with MCL previously treated with ibrutinib have poor ability to carry out ADL and experience very poor outcomes. New safe, effective therapies are needed.

Abstract
Background: Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a common hematologic malignancy. This article aimed to estimate the trends of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) globally from 1990 to 2019. Methods: Data on the NHL burden were explored from the Global Burden of Disease study 2019. The trends of NHL burden were estimated using age-standardized rate (ASR) and estimated annual percentage change (EAPC). Results: The ASR of NHL incidence showed an increasing trend worldwide from 1990 to 2019, with an EAPC of.56 [95% CI: 0.45–0.66]. Meanwhile, increasing trends were observed in both sexes and in most geographic regions, particularly East Asia (EAPC = 3.57, 95% CI: 3.29–3.86). The most pronounced increasing trends were seen in Georgia (EAPC = 4.7, 95% CI: 4.20–5.21), followed by Belarus and Uzbekistan. However, death and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) caused by NHL showed decreasing trends globally, in which the respective EAPCs were −0.09 (95% CI: −0.17 to −0.02) and −0.28 (95% CI: −0.35 to −0.22). Decreasing trends were mainly seen in high and high-middle sociodemographic index (SDI) areas. At the national level, the largest increasing trends of death and DALYs were observed in Georgia, in which the respective EAPCs were 4.54 (95% CI: 4.01–5.07) and 4.97 (95% CI: 4.42–5.52). Conclusions: Decreasing trends of death and DALYs caused by NHL were observed worldwide from 1990 to 2019, but NHL remains a substantial challenge globally. The findings would inform the strategies for reducing the burden of NHL.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features and effect of prognostic factors in patients with different pathological types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Methods: We collected and analyzed the clinical data of 89 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis who were treated at Huadong Hospital from March 2013 to May 2020. The data were analyzed via log-rank and Cox multivariate analyses. Results: The median overall survival time of the 89 cases was 10.2 months. Patients with B-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis did not reach the median overall survival time. The median overall survival times of T-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and NK-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis were 10.2 and 3.0 months, respectively. The pathological type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (OS: P=0041, PFS: P=0.015) , ECOG score ≥ 3 (OS: P=0.031, PFS: P=0.030) , hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (OS: P=0.005, PFS: P=0.040) , lymphadenopathy (OS: P=0.007, PFS: P=0.012) , and splenomegaly (OS: P=0.276, PFS: P=0.324) were related to the overall survival and progression-free survival of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Splenectomy could improve the prognosis of patients with lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, especially T-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Conclusion: The clinical characteristics of patients with different pathological types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis were similar but were different in the overall survival rate and the effect of prognostic factors. We suggested that patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis should receive more than combined chemotherapy. To improve the prognosis and survival rate of patients, those with B-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and NK-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis promptly require hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Moreover, patients with T-cell lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis should consider splenectomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) is an autologous CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy approved for relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) on the basis of the single-arm phase II ZUMA-1 trial, which showed best overall and complete response rates in infused patients of 83% and 58%, respectively. We report clinical outcomes with axi-cel in the standard-of-care (SOC) setting for the approved indication. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data were collected retrospectively from all patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL who underwent leukapheresis as of September 30, 2018, at 17 US institutions with the intent to receive SOC axi-cel. Toxicities were graded and managed according to each institution's guidelines. Responses were assessed as per Lugano 2014 classification. RESULTS Of 298 patients who underwent leukapheresis, 275 (92%) received axi-cel therapy. Compared with the registrational ZUMA-1 trial, 129 patients (43%) in this SOC study would not have met ZUMA-1 eligibility criteria because of comorbidities at the time of leukapheresis. Among the axi-cel-treated patients, grade ≥ 3 cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity occurred in 7% and 31%, respectively. Nonrelapse mortality was 4.4%. Best overall and complete response rates in infused patients were 82% (95% CI, 77% to 86%) and 64% (95% CI, 58% to 69%), respectively. At a median follow-up of 12.9 months from the time of CAR T-cell infusion, median progression-free survival was 8.3 months (95% CI, 6.0 to15.1 months), and median overall survival was not reached. Patients with poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2-4 and elevated lactate dehydrogenase had shorter progression-free and overall survival on univariable and multivariable analysis. CONCLUSION The safety and efficacy of axi-cel in the SOC setting in patients with relapsed/refractory LBCL was comparable to the registrational ZUMA-1 trial.

Combination therapy with Olaratumab/doxorubicin in advanced or metastatic soft tissue sarcoma -a single-Centre experience. BMC Cancer 2020; 20:68. [PMID: 31996176 PMCID: PMC6988236 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-6551-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2019] [Accepted: 01/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The antibody targeting platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA), olaratumab, was approved in 2016 for metastatic soft tissue sarcoma (STS) in combination with doxorubicin based on promising results of a phase Ib/II trial by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). However, recently the phase III ANNOUNCE trial could not confirm the additional value of olaratumab in this context. Methods Here, in a retrospective analysis we share our single-centre experience with olaratumab/doxorubicin in STS by including n = 32 patients treated with olaratumab/doxorubicin between 2016 and 2019. Results Median progression-free survival (PFS) in the overall cohort was 3.1 months (range 0.6–16.2). A response [complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR) or stable disease (SD)] was seen in n = 11 (34%) cases, whereas n = 21 (66%) patients showed progressive disease (PD). In n = 9 patients surgery was performed subsequently in an individual therapeutic approach. Out of n = 5 patients receiving additional regional hyperthermia, n = 3 achieved PR or SD. Conclusions This single-centre experience does also not support the promising phase Ib/II results for olaratumab/doxorubicin in STS. However, our findings do not preclude that olaratumab combination therapy could be valuable in a neoadjuvant setting. This warrants further exploration also taking into account the heterogeneous nature of STS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The importance of sex and gender as modulators of disease biology and treatment outcomes is well known in other disciplines of medicine, such as cardiology, but remains an undervalued issue in oncology. Considering the increasing evidence for their relevance, European Society for Medical Oncology decided to address this topic and organized a multidisciplinary workshop in Lausanne, Switzerland, on 30 November and 1 December 2018. DESIGN Twenty invited faculty members and 40 selected physicians/scientists participated. Relevant content was presented by faculty members on the basis of a literature review conducted by each speaker. Following a moderated consensus session, the final consensus statements are reported here. RESULTS Clinically relevant sex differences include tumour biology, immune system activity, body composition and drug disposition and effects. The main differences between male and female cells are sex chromosomes and the level of sexual hormones they are exposed to. They influence both local and systemic determinants of carcinogenesis. Their effect on carcinogenesis in non-reproductive organs is largely unknown. Recent evidence also suggests differences in tumour biology and molecular markers. Regarding body composition, the difference in metabolically active, fat-free body mass is one of the most prominent: in a man and a woman of equal weight and height, it accounts for 80% of the man's and 65% of the woman's body mass, and is not taken into account in body-surface area based dosing of chemotherapy. CONCLUSION Sex differences in cancer biology and treatment deserve more attention and systematic investigation. Interventional clinical trials evaluating sex-specific dosing regimens are necessary to improve the balance between efficacy and toxicity for drugs with significant pharmacokinetic differences. Especially in diseases or disease subgroups with significant differences in epidemiology or outcomes, men and women with non-sex-related cancers should be considered as biologically distinct groups of patients, for whom specific treatment approaches merit consideration.
