Ann Hematol 2024; 103:2455-2462. [PMID: 38809456 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-024-05813-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate whether BeEAM is an alternative to BEAM for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). METHODS Data of 60 patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who underwent ASCT from January 2018 to June 2023 in our center, including 30 patients in the BeEAM group and 30 patients in the BEAM group, were retrospectively analyzed. The time to hematopoietic reconstitution, treatment-related adverse events, number of hospitalization days, hospitalization cost, and survival benefit were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The clinical characteristics of the patients did not significantly differ between the two groups. The median number of reinfused CD34 + cells was 5.06 × 106/kg and 5.17 × 106/kg in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively, which did not significantly different (p = 0.8829). In the BeEAM and BEAM groups, the median time to neutrophil implantation was 10.2 and 10.27 days, respectively (p = 0.8253), and the median time to platelet implantation was 13.23 and 12.87 days, respectively (p = 0.7671). In the BeEAM and BEAM groups, the median hospitalization duration was 30.37 and 30.57 days, respectively (p = 0.9060), and the median hospitalization cost was RMB 83,425 and RMB 96,235, respectively (p = 0.0560). The hospitalization cost was lower in the BeEAM group. The most common hematologic adverse events were grade ≥ 3 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, whose incidences were similar in the two groups. The most common non-hematologic adverse events were ≤ grade 2 and the incidences of these events did not significantly differ between the two groups. Median overall survival was not reached in either group, with predicted 5-year overall survival of 72.5% and 60% in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively (p = 0.5872). Five-year progression-free survival was 25% and 20% in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively (p = 0.6804). CONCLUSION As a conditioning regimen for relapsed or refractory DLBCL, BeEAM has a desirable safety profile and is well tolerated, and its hematopoietic reconstitution time, number of hospitalization days, and survival benefit are not inferior to those of BEAM. BeEAM has a lower hospitalization cost and is an alternative to BEAM.

Abstract
Mosunetuzumab is a novel bispecific antibody targeting epitopes on CD3 on T cells and CD20 on B cells with the goal of inducing T-cell mediated elimination of malignant B cells. A recent pivotal phase I/II clinical trial (GO29781) demonstrated that mosunetuzumab induced an overall response rate (ORR) of 80%, complete response (CR) rate of 60%, and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 17.9 months in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) following at least two prior lines of systemic therapy, including alkylator and anti-CD20 antibody-based therapy. Historical data from cohorts receiving therapy for R/R FL can provide some context for interpretation of single-arm trials. We compared the results from the mosunetuzumab trial to outcomes from a cohort of patients with R/R FL from the LEO Consortium for Real World Evidence (LEO CReWE). We applied clinical trial eligibility criteria to the LEO CReWE cohort and utilized matching- adjusted indirect comparison weighting to balance the clinical characteristics of the LEO CReWE cohort with those from the mosunetuzumab trial. ORR (73%, 95% CI: 65-80%) and CR rates (53%, 95% CI: 45-61%) observed in the weighted LEO CReWE cohort were lower than those reported on the mosunetuzumab trial (ORR=80%, 95% CI: 70-88%; CR=60%, 95% CI: 49-70%, respectively). PFS at 12 months was similar in the weighted LEO CReWE (60%, 95% CI: 51-69%) and the mosunetuzumab (58%, 95% CI: 47-68%) trial. Sensitivity analyses examining the impact of matching variables, selection of line of therapy, and application of eligibility criteria provide context for best practices in this setting.

Abstract
The emergence of CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has revolutionized the treatment paradigm for R/R B-cell NHLs. However, challenges persist in accurately evaluating treatment response and detecting early relapse, necessitating the exploration of novel biomarkers. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via liquid biopsy is a non-invasive tool for monitoring therapy efficacy and predicting treatment outcomes in B-NHL following CAR-T therapy. By overcoming the limitations of conventional imaging modalities, ctDNA assessments offer valuable insights into response dynamics, molecular mechanisms of resistance, and early detection of molecular relapse. Integration of ctDNA monitoring into clinical practice holds promise for personalized therapeutic strategies, guiding the development of novel targeted therapies, and enhancing patient outcomes. However, standardization of assay methodologies and consensus on clinical response metrics are imperative to unlock the full potential of ctDNA in the management of B-NHL. Prospective validation of ctDNA in clinical trials is necessary to establish its role as a complementary decision aid.

Tissue-Matched IgH Gene Rearrangement of Circulating Tumor DNA Shows Significant Value in Predicting the Progression of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma. Oncologist 2024; 29:e672-e680.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence has demonstrated that monitoring of the variable, diversity, and joining gene segments (VDJ) rearrangement of the immunoglobulin (Ig) genes in the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is of value in predicting the outcomes of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this study, we investigated the role of VDJ rearrangement proportion in ctDNA for predicting DLBCL progression. METHODS Patients diagnosed with newly diagnosed DLBCL were included in this study. The VDJ sequences of IgH were detected using next-generation sequencing (NGS) in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue and/or peripheral blood. The clonotype of the highest proportion in the peripheral blood was defined as the "dominant circulating clonotype," whilst the clonotype of the highest proportion in matched tissue that is detected in peripheral blood was defined as the "dominant tissue-matched clonotype." The decision tree, a machine learning-based methodology, was used to establish a progression-predicting model through a combination of "dominant tissue-matched clonotype" proportion or "dominant circulating clonotype" proportion, and the clinicopathological information, including age, sex, cell of origin, stage, international prognostic index, lactate dehydrogenase, number of extranodal involvements and β2-microglobulin. RESULTS A total of 55 patients with eligible sequencing data were used for prognosis analysis, among which 36 patients had matched tissue samples. The concordance rate of "dominant circulating clonotype" and "dominant tissue-matched clonotype" was 19.44% (7/36). The decision tree model showed that the combination of extranodal involvement event and "dominant circulating clonotype" proportion (≥37%) had a clinical value in predicting the prognosis of DLBCL following combined chemotherapy (sensitivity, 0.63; specificity, 0.81; positive prediction value (PPV), 0.59; negative prediction value, 0.83; kappa value, 0.42). Noticeably, the combination of the "dominant tissue-matched clonotype" and extranodal involvement event showed a higher value in predicting the progression (sensitivity, 0.85; specificity, 0.78; PPV, 0.69; kappa value, 0.64). CONCLUSION IgH proportion detected in the ctDNA samples traced from tissue samples has a high clinical value in predicting the progression of DLBCL.

Abstract
The clinical landscape of lymphomas has changed dramatically over the last 2 decades, including significant progress made in the understanding and utilization of imaging modalities and the available treatment options for both indolent and aggressive lymphomas. Since the introduction of hybrid PET/CT scanners in 2001, the indications of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT in the management of lymphomas have grown rapidly. In today's clinical practice, FDG PET/CT is used in successful management of the vast majority patients with lymphomas.

CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2024; 24:254-259. [PMID: 38195321 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2023.12.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) accounts for 4% to 6% of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma with historically poor outcomes. With the advent of intensive first-line, targeted, and cellular therapies, outcomes have improved, and initial remission can be 8 to 10 years or longer. As patients experience longer remissions, this raises the question of the optimal surveillance modality. Peripheral blood minimal residual disease (MRD) analysis offers a potential alternative to surveillance imaging that is sensitive, less costly, and eliminates the risk of radiation exposure. MATERIALS AND METHODS The clonoSEQ assay (Adaptive Biotechnologies) is an FDA-cleared commercially available Ig-HTS MRD assay with a sensitivity of 1 cell in 1,000,000. We performed a retrospective analysis of 34 patients from 2015 to 2021, who underwent MRD testing after achieving remission with first-line therapy. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 6.5 years, 10-year progression free survival (PFS) was 60% and 10-year overall survival was 92% of the entire cohort. Among 12 patients who sustained a radiographic relapse, peripheral blood became MRD+ either at or prior to the time of relapse in 11 patients (92%). The first MRD+ test had a lead time of 0 to 24 months (median 34 days) prior to radiographic relapse. Only 1 patient had a MRD- result while being found to have progressive disease on imaging. Among 22 patients who sustained continuous clinical remission, 21 have remained MRD-. Several patients were able to enjoy 2 to 4-year intervals without surveillance imaging. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that the clonoSEQ MRD assay is an effective surveillance tool for MCL patients following first-line therapy and is predictive of relapse prior to imaging.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Real-world data (RWD) are essential to complement clinical trial (CT) data, but major challenges remain, such as data quality. REal world dAta in LYmphoma and Survival in Adults (REALYSA) is a prospective noninterventional multicentric cohort started in 2018 that included patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma in France. Herein is a proof-of-concept analysis on patients with first-line diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) to (1) evaluate the capacity of the cohort to provide robust data through a multistep validation process; (2) assess the consistency of the results; and (3) conduct an exploratory transportability assessment of 2 recent phase 3 CTs (POLARIX and SENIOR). The analysis population comprised 645 patients with DLBCL included before 31 March 2021 who received immunochemotherapy and for whom 3589 queries were generated, resulting in high data completeness (<4% missing data). Median age was 66 years, with mostly advanced-stage disease and high international prognostic index (IPI) score. Treatments were mostly rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP 75%) and reduced dose R-CHOP (13%). Estimated 1-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival rates were 77.9% and 90.0%, respectively (median follow-up, 9.9 months). Regarding transportability, when applying the CT's main inclusion criteria (age, performance status, and IPI), outcomes seemed comparable between patients in REALYSA and standard arms of POLARIX (1-year progression-free survival 79.8% vs 79.8%) and SENIOR (1-year EFS, 64.5% vs 60.0%). With its rigorous data validation process, REALYSA provides high-quality RWD, thus constituting a platform for numerous scientific purposes. The REALYSA study was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03869619.

Abstract
PURPOSE We undertook a scoping review of the literature to synthesize what is known about lymphoma survivorship and develop a comprehensive set of lymphoma-specific survivorship recommendations. METHODS We searched the peer-reviewed literature from January 1995 to April 2022, focused on topics relevant to survivorship care in patients ≥ 18 years of age, treated curatively for non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkin's lymphoma, and in remission for at least 2 years. RESULTS We retained 92 articles; themes included late effects of treatment (53.3%, 49/92), particularly fatigue and sleep disturbances, and fertility, as well as psychosocial considerations of survivors (27.2%; 25/92), screening for secondary malignancies (22.8%; 21/92), outcomes of interventions to improve survivorship care (10.9%; 10/92), and best practices and elements for survivorship plans (8.7%; 8/92). While there were published guidelines for screening for recurrence and secondary malignancies, despite the considerable number of articles on the psychosocial aspects of survivorship care, there remains limited guidance on screening frequency and management strategies for anxiety and depression, sleep disturbances, and treatment-related fatigue within the lymphoma population. CONCLUSION We have developed a comprehensive set of lymphoma-survivorship recommendations; however, work is needed to adapt them to local healthcare contexts. IMPLICATIONS FOR SURVIVORS While there is a focus in the literature on the long-term psychosocial impacts of cancer and its treatment on lymphoma survivors, there remains no concrete recommendations on effective screening and management of detriments to quality of life such as anxiety, depression, fatigue, and distress, and availability of local resources vary widely.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The utility of analyzing circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), circulating tumor cells (CTCs), and disease in the bone marrow as an adjunctive tool in caring for hematologic cancer patients is expanding. This holds true for lymphoma where these biomarkers are being explored as a means of genotyping and quantifying disease. Regarding the latter, they can be used to monitor measurable residual disease (MRD) during and after treatment. This holds potential for aiding clinical decisions amidst treatment, detecting earlier relapse, and improving prognostication. Here, we review the evidence to support these applications in a variety of lymphoma subtypes. RECENT FINDINGS Numerous clinical trials across a variety of lymphomas have demonstrated value in MRD monitoring. MRD monitoring is often prognostic for progression free survival (PFS) and even overall survival (OS) at several time points in a disease course, particularly when utilizing serial measurements. With regards to tailoring treatment, there are a growing number of trials examining MRD-adaptive treatment strategies to intensify or de-escalate treatment to individualize care. Lastly, MRD monitoring has been utilized successfully in detecting earlier relapse when compared to more standard methods of clinical surveillance such as radiographic assessment. Although not routinely implemented into clinical practice, MRD monitoring in lymphoma is helping shape the future landscape of this disease by aiding in prognostication, guiding therapy, and detecting earlier relapse. Steps to standardize and further examine this technology prospectively are being taken to bring MRD monitoring to the forefront of the field.

Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most frequent histological subtype of NHL and the paradigm for the management of aggressive lymphoma. An excisional or incisional lymph node biopsy evaluated by an experienced hemopathologist is recommended to establish the diagnosis. Twenty years following its introduction, R-CHOP remains the standard first-line treatment. No modification of this scheme (increased chemotherapy dose intensity, new monoclonal antibodies, or the addition of immunomodulators or anti-target agents) has significatively improved the clinical outcomes, whereas therapy for recurrence or progression is evolving rapidly. The irruption of CART cells, polatuzumab vedotin, tafasitamab, and CD20/CD3 bispecific antibodies are changing the natural history of relapsed patients and will challenge R-CHOP as the benchmark for newly diagnosed patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Achieving complete response (CR) after first-line chemotherapy in gastric DLBCL patients often results in longer disease-free survival. We explored whether a model based on imaging features combined with clinicopathological factors could assess the CR to chemotherapy in patients with gastric DLBCL. METHODS Univariate (P < 0.10) and multivariate (P < 0.05) analyses were used to identify factors associated with a CR to treatment. As a result, a system was developed to evaluate whether gastric DLBCL patients had a CR to chemotherapy. Evidence was found to support the model's ability to predict outcomes and demonstrate clinical value. RESULTS We retrospectively analysed 108 people who had been diagnosed gastric DLBCL; 53 were in CR. Patients were divided at random into a 5:4 training/testing dataset split. β2 microglobulin before and after chemotherapy and lesion length after chemotherapy were independent predictors of the CR of gastric DLBCL patients after chemotherapy. These factors were used in the predictive model construction. In the training dataset, the area under the curve (AUC) of the model was 0.929, the specificity was 0.806, and the sensitivity was 0.862. In the testing dataset, the model had an AUC of 0.957, specificity of 0.792, and sensitivity of 0.958. The AUC did not differ significantly between the training and testing dates (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION A model constructed using imaging features combined with clinicopathological factors could effectively evaluate the CR to chemotherapy in gastric DLBCL patients. The predictive model can facilitate the monitoring of patients and be used to adjust individualised treatment plans.

Abstract
Testing for measurable residual disease (MRD) provides important prognostic and predictive implications on survival and management of many hematologic diseases. Among the many clinical uses of MRD is post-therapy response assessment and risk stratification. With the integration of precision medicine in routine clinical care and the development of novel and innovative therapies resulting in deeper responses, it is necessary to refine the role of MRD, standardize available methodologies and define its role as a surrogate endpoint for relapse and time-to-next treatment in clinical studies. Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is an approved treatment for various hematologic malignancies. Even though it produces high rates of remission, the durability of response is still a consideration as almost 40% to 50% of patients eventually relapse. MRD testing as a prognostic and surrogate marker is being explored in patients after CAR T-cell therapy to predict early relapse. In this chapter, we review the various tools available for MRD detection and monitoring post-CAR T-cell therapy. We later discuss disease-specific MRD assessment and its application in recent studies in the post-CAR T setting.

Abstract
Our objective was to provide consensus recommendations from a consortium of academic and industry experts in the field of lymphoma and imaging for consistent application of the Lugano classification. Methods: Consensus was obtained through a series of meetings from July 2019 until September 2021 sponsored by the Pharma Imaging Network for Therapeutics and Diagnostics (PINTaD) as part of the PINTaD Response Criteria in Lymphoma Working Group (PRoLoG) consensus initiative. Results: Consensus recommendations clarified technical considerations for PET/CT and diagnostic CT from the Lugano classification, including updating the FDG avidity of different lymphoma entities, clarifying the response nomenclature, and refining lesion classification and scoring, especially with regard to scores 4 and 5 and the X category of the 5-point scale. Combination of metabolic and anatomic responses is clarified, as well as response assessment in cases of discordant or missing evaluations. Use of clinical data in the classification, especially the requirement for bone marrow assessment, is further updated on the basis of lymphoma entities. Clarification is provided with regard to spleen and liver measurements and evaluation, as well as nodal response. Conclusion: Consensus recommendations are made to comprehensively address areas of inconsistency and ambiguity in the classification encountered during response evaluation by end users, and such guidance should be used as a companion to the 2014 Lugano classification.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Following spinal fusion surgery, routine imaging is often obtained in all patients regardless of clinical presentation. Such routine imaging may include x-ray, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging studies in both the immediate postoperative period and after discharge. The clinical utility of this practice is questionable. Our goal is to assess the existing literature for evidence of impact on clinical care from routine radiographic surveillance following spinal fusion. METHODS A systematic search of Embase, Scopus, PubMed, Cochrane, and Ovid databases was performed for studies investigating postoperative imaging following spinal fusion surgery. Studies were analyzed for imaging findings and rates of change in management due to imaging. RESULTS In total, the review identified 9 studies that separated data by unique patient or by unique clinic visits. The 4 studies reporting per-patient data totaled 475 patients with 328 (69%) receiving routine imaging. Among these, 28 (8.5%) patients had abnormal routine findings with no patients having a change to their clinical course. Of the 5 studies that reported clinic visit data, 3119 patient visits were included with 2365 (76%) clinic visits accompanied by imaging. Across these 5 studies, 146 (6.2%) visits noted abnormal imaging with only 12 (0.5%) subsequent management changes. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis found that routine imaging after spinal fusion surgery had no direct benefit on clinical management. The utility of baseline imaging for long-term comparison and medicolegal concerns were not studied and remain up to the provider's judgment. Further research is necessary to identify optimal imaging criteria following spinal fusion surgery.

Abstract
Noninvasive disease monitoring and risk stratification by circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) profiling has become a potential novel strategy for patient management in B-cell lymphoma. Emerging innovative therapeutic options and an unprecedented growth in our understanding of biological and molecular factors underlying lymphoma heterogeneity have fundamentally increased the need for precision-based tools facilitating personalized and accurate disease profiling and quantification. By capturing the entire mutational landscape of tumors, ctDNA assessment has some decisive advantages over conventional tissue biopsies, which usually target only one single tumor site. Due to its non- or minimal-invasive nature, serial and repeated ctDNA profiling provides a real-time picture of the genetic composition and facilitates quantification of tumor burden any time during the course of the disease. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of technologies used for ctDNA detection and genotyping in B-cell lymphoma, focusing on pre-analytical and technical requirements, the advantages and limitations of various approaches, and highlight recent advances around improving sensitivity and suppressing technical errors. We broadly review potential applications of ctDNA in clinical practice and for translational research by describing how ctDNA might enhance lymphoma subtype classification, treatment response assessment, outcome prediction, and monitoring of measurable residual disease. We finally discuss how ctDNA could be implemented in prospective clinical trials as a novel surrogate endpoint and be utilized as a decision-making tool to guide lymphoma treatment in the future.

Ther Adv Hematol 2022; 13:20406207221095963. [PMID: 35585967 PMCID: PMC9109489 DOI: 10.1177/20406207221095963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Surveillance computed tomography (CT) is performed during the follow-up of patients with lymphoma who have completed initial therapy. However, studies on the clinical benefit of surveillance CT for patients with incurable subtypes, such as follicular lymphoma (FL), are limited. This study aimed to evaluate the value of surveillance CT for patients with FL after achieving the first complete response (CR) or CR unconfirmed in the rituximab era. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with FL who achieved CR with first-line treatment between 2000 and 2016 at our institution. In patients who experienced first relapse, we examined the patient's clinical characteristics at the time of relapse, subsequent therapies, and post-relapse survival, based on the method of relapse detection. Results Of the 248 patients who achieved CR after initial therapy, 109 had a relapse, with a median follow-up of 11 years; 100 were enrolled into this study. Relapse was detected by surveillance CT in 61 patients (surveillance CT group) and by means other than surveillance CT, such as the presence of patient-reported symptoms, physical findings, and blood work-up abnormalities (non-surveillance CT group), in 39 patients. There was no significant difference in the patients' characteristics at the time of relapse between the two groups, except for a higher incidence of extranodal involvement in the non-surveillance CT group. The method of relapse detection did not affect therapeutic selection after relapse and post-relapse survival. In this study, 86.8% of the 38 patients who relapsed with only deep lesions, such as mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymph nodes, had surveillance CT-detected relapse. Conclusion Surveillance CT did not show any clinical benefit for patients with FL in CR; however, it might lead to early detection of relapse in cases of deep lesions that cannot be identified without imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inappropriate and wasteful use of health care resources is a common problem, constituting 10-34% of health services spending in the western world. Even though diagnostic imaging is vital for identifying correct diagnoses and administrating the right treatment, low-value imaging-in which the diagnostic test confers little to no clinical benefit-is common and contributes to inappropriate and wasteful use of health care resources. There is a lack of knowledge on the types and extent of low-value imaging. Accordingly, the objective of this study was to identify, characterize, and quantify the extent of low-value diagnostic imaging examinations for adults and children. METHODS A scoping review of the published literature was performed. Medline-Ovid, Embase-Ovid, Scopus, and Cochrane Library were searched for studies published from 2010 to September 2020. The search strategy was built from medical subject headings (Mesh) for Diagnostic imaging/Radiology OR Health service misuse/Medical overuse OR Procedures and Techniques Utilization/Facilities and Services Utilization. Articles in English, German, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, or Norwegian were included. RESULTS A total of 39,986 records were identified and, of these, 370 studies were included in the final synthesis. Eighty-four low-value imaging examinations were identified. Imaging of atraumatic pain, routine imaging in minor head injury, trauma, thrombosis, urolithiasis, after thoracic interventions, fracture follow-up and cancer staging/follow-up were the most frequently identified low-value imaging examinations. The proportion of low-value imaging varied between 2 and 100% inappropriate or unnecessary examinations. CONCLUSIONS A comprehensive list of identified low-value radiological examinations for both adults and children are presented. Future research should focus on reasons for low-value imaging utilization and interventions to reduce the use of low-value imaging internationally. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO: CRD42020208072.

PHENOMICS (CHAM, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 2:102-118. [PMID: 36939797 PMCID: PMC9590515 DOI: 10.1007/s43657-021-00042-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2021] [Revised: 12/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Positron emission tomography (PET) represents molecular imaging for non-invasive phenotyping of physiological and biochemical processes in various oncological diseases. PET imaging with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) for glucose metabolism evaluation is the standard imaging modality for the clinical management of lymphoma. One of the 18F-FDG PET applications is the detection and pre-treatment staging of lymphoma, which is highly sensitive. 18F-FDG PET is also applied during treatment to evaluate the individual chemo-sensitivity and accordingly guide the response-adapted therapy. At the end of the therapy regiment, a negative PET scan is indicative of a good prognosis in patients with advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Thus, adjuvant radiotherapy may be alleviated. Future PET studies using non-18F-FDG radiotracers, such as 68Ga-labeled pentixafor (a cyclic pentapeptide that enables sensitive and high-contrast imaging of C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4), 68Ga-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) that reflects the tumor microenvironment, and 89Zr-labeled atezolizumab that targets the programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), may complement 18F-FDG and offer essential tools to decode lymphoma phenotypes further and identify the mechanisms of lymphoma therapy.

Abstract
Lymphomas are heterogeneous tumors with striking genetic diversity and variable outcomes even within pathologic diagnoses. Treatment response assessment relies on radiologic and nuclear scans, which cannot detect disease at the molecular level. Molecular tumor analyses require invasive tissue biopsies that cannot accurately capture spatial tumor heterogeneity within each patient. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a minimally invasive and highly versatile biomarker that overcomes fundamental limitations of imaging scans and tissue biopsies and may aid clinical decision-making in lymphoma. In this review, we highlight the key established principles regarding ctDNA in lymphoma and emphasize the important research questions and future directions. SIGNIFICANCE: ctDNA is an emerging biomarker for lymphomas that noninvasively provides genotypic information and can measure the effectiveness of treatment by detecting the presence of minimal residual disease. Key principles have emerged related to ctDNA for lymphoma, but further studies are needed to standardize its use and establish clinical utility.

Abstract
Recent UK guidelines recommend that surveillance imaging should not be offered to patients who have undergone treatment for breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) unless clinically indicated. The aim of this study was to explore the evolving practice at a tertiary referral unit and quantify the direct economic costs (DEC) associated with post-treatment BIA-ALCL routine radiological surveillance prior to adoption of the guidelines. Eleven patients were treated for BIA-ALCL between 2015 and 2020. At a median follow-up of 38 months (IQR 12-47) there were no local or distant relapses. Two patients did not have any radiological surveillance and 1 had follow-up elsewhere. The remaining 8 patients had a combination of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) (n = 10), CT (n = 2), breast ultrasound (n = 6), mammogram (n = 4) and breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (n = 1) as routine imaging follow-up not guided by clinical concerns. Total cost of imaging was £10,396 (€12,257) with a median cost of £1953 (€2304) per patient [IQR £526-2029 (€621-2394)]. This cost could have been saved based on current guidelines recommending no routine surveillance for asymptomatic patients.

Abstract
Background The eukaryotic translation elongation factor 1A1 (EEF1A1) participates in protein translation and has been reported to be involved in tumor progression such as hepatocellular carcinoma. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoid malignancy in adults. In the present study, we aimed to detect the expression of EEF1A1 in DLBCL and to analyze its relationship with prognosis. Methods We reviewed medical records of DLBCL patients in our hospital and evaluated their expression level of EEF1A1 in tumor tissues using immunohistochemical (IHC) assay. The Chi-square method was used for correlation analysis. The Kaplan–Meier method with Log rank test was used for univariate analysis. Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analysis. Cellular and mice models were introduced to validate its oncogenic role. Results EEF1A1 expression in tumor cells was higher in certain DLBCL cases. Patients with higher EEF1A1 expression were more likely to have advanced tumor stage and poorer 5-year overall survival (OS) rates. EEF1A1 expression in tumor cells was an independent risk predictor for OS (P < 0.05). Cellular assays demonstrated that EEF1A1-shRNA significantly inhibited lymphoma cell proliferation. The study of xenografts further verified the effect of EEF1A1-shRNA on suppressing tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion EEF1A1 positivity predicts short survival in DLBCL patients. For patients with higher EEF1A1 expression, more strategy such as anti-EEF1A1 antibody treatment should be developed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Functional imaging with 18FDG-PET-CT has transformed the staging and response assessment of patients with Hodgkin (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Herein, we review the current role and future directions for functional imaging in the management of patients with lymphoma. RECENT FINDINGS Because of its increased sensitivity, PET-CT is the preferred modality for staging of FDG-avid lymphomas. It appears to have a role for interim assessment in patients with HL with adaptive strategies that reduce toxicity in lower risk patients and increase efficacy in those at high risk. Such a role has yet to be demonstrated in other histologies. FDG-PET-CT is also the gold standard for response assessment posttreatment. Newer uses include assessment of total metabolic tumor volume and radiomics in pretreatment prognosis. Whereas PET-CT is more sensitive than other current modalities for staging and response assessment, the future of PET-CT will be in conjunction with other modalities, notably assessment of minimal residual disease and microenvironmental markers to develop risk adaptive strategies to improve the outcome of patients with lymphoma.

Comparison of 2-year outcomes with CAR T cells (ZUMA-1) vs salvage chemotherapy in refractory large B-cell lymphoma. Blood Adv 2021; 5:4149-4155.

Abstract
Propensity analysis confirmed substantially higher ORR and a 73% reduction in risk for death with axi-cel vs standard salvage regimens. This 2-year analysis indicates that axi-cel is associated with durable clinical benefit for patients with refractory LBCL.
The SCHOLAR-1 international retrospective study highlighted poor clinical outcomes and survival among patients with refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) treated with conventional chemotherapy. Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, demonstrated durable responses in patients with refractory LBCL in the pivotal phase 1/2 ZUMA-1 study (NCT02348216). Here, we compared SCHOLAR-1 with the 2-year outcomes of ZUMA-1. Prior to comparison of clinical outcomes, propensity scoring (based on a broad set of prognostic covariates) was used to create balance between ZUMA-1 and SCHOLAR-1 patients. In the pivotal phase 2 portion of ZUMA-1, 101 patients received axi-cel and were evaluable for response and survival. In SCHOLAR-1, 434 and 424 patients were evaluable for response and survival, respectively. ZUMA-1 patients were more heavily pretreated than were SCHOLAR-1 patients. The median follow-up was 27.1 months in ZUMA-1. The objective response rate (ORR) and complete response rate were 83% and 54% in ZUMA-1 vs 34% and 12% in SCHOLAR-1, respectively. The 2-year survival rate was 54% in ZUMA-1 and 20% in SCHOLAR-1, and a 73% reduction in the risk of death was observed in ZUMA-1 vs SCHOLAR-1. These results were consistent with those of an additional standardization analysis in which strata were limited to 2 prognostic factors (refractory categorization and presence/absence of stem cell transplant after refractoriness to chemotherapy) to conserve sample size. Despite the limitations of a nonrandomized analysis, these results indicate that axi-cel produces durable responses and a substantial survival benefit vs non–CAR T-cell salvage regimens for patients with refractory LBCL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our aim was to retrospectively assess the role of routine CT scans within the first year of follow-up with a limited surveillance policy prior to Lugano recommendations in diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) achieving complete metabolic remission (CMR). We also evaluated the type of relapse detection and exposure to CT scans within the first five years. METHODS Patients diagnosed with DLBCL who achieved CMR after first-line immunochemotherapy were included. Imaging studies and medical records were thoroughly reviewed. RESULTS Among 101 DLBCL patients in the first CMR, a total of 19 relapses were identified in the study period (18.8% of DLBCL patients included). Nine patients relapsed within the first year (47.4% of all relapses) but only 3 of them were detected by the 202 surveillance CT scans performed during this first year of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Our real-world data provide clinically applicable results which are in agreement with the Lugano recommendations based on trial data, highlighting the lack of utility of routine CTs in DLBCL patients achieving CMR.

Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoma subtype, accounting for 30-40% of lymphoma diagnoses. Though aggressive, cure is achievable in approximately 60% of cases with primary chemo-immunotherapy, and in a further substantial minority by salvage therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. Despite promising activity in early phase clinical trials, no intensified or novel treatment regimen has improved outcomes over R-CHOP21 in randomised studies. However, there remain several areas of controversy including the most appropriate prognostic markers, CNS prophylaxis and the optimal treatment for patients with high-risk disease. This position statement presents an evidence-based synthesis of the literature for application in Australasian practice. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Serial surveillance by circulating tumor DNA profiling after chimeric antigen receptor T therapy for the guidance of r/r diffuse large B cell lymphoma precise treatment. J Cancer 2021; 12:5423-5431. [PMID: 34405005 PMCID: PMC8364638 DOI: 10.7150/jca.60390] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) released from tumor cells carries the tumor-associated genetic and epigenetic characteristics of cancer patients. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) facilitates the application of ctDNA profiling for identification and monitoring of minimal residual disease (MRD) in cancer, and can serve as the guidance for precise treatment. Methods: In this study, we profiled genomic alterations in the baseline, relapsed, and progressive tumor samples of eight diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients (NCT03118180) after chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy. Results: The median follow-up was 41 months. 4 (50%) patients achieved complete remission (CR), 1 (12.5%) patient achieved partial remission (PR), and the other 3 (37.5%) patients showed no response. 3 of 5 patients who achieved remission relapsed within 4 months after CAR-T therapy, while the rest 2 patients remained CR for more than 3 years. Based on the positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scan, the current gold standard for evaluating response to therapy in lymphoma, the sensitivity and specificity of our ctDNA profiling in detecting tumor-related ctDNA mutations were 94.7% and 83.3%, respectively. The median numbers of baseline plasma ctDNA mutations in patients who remained long-term CR and patients who relapsed or became refractory to CAR-T therapy were 3 and 14.3, respectively. GNA13, SOCS1, TNFAIP3 and XPO1 mutations appeared to be associated with poor prognosis after CAR-T cell therapy. Our results also suggested that lenalidomide might relieve relapsed lymphoma with mutations in NFKBIA 202C>T (p.Q68*) and NFKBIE 433A>T (p.K145*) by targeting NF-Kappa B signaling. In addition, the inhibitor selinexor may be another choice for refractory or relapse (r/r) DLBCL patients after CAR-T cell treatment. Conclusion: Serial ctDNA monitoring is an emerging technology for the surveillance of disease status and prognosis prediction. In this work, we demonstrated the use of serial ctDNA monitoring in r/r DLBCL patients after CD19-targeted CAR-T cell therapy. Our longitudinal NGS profiling revealed the changes of ctDNA mutation in accordance with prognosis, and shed some light on exploring more targeted treatment options together with CAR-T cell therapy.

Surveillance imaging during first remission in follicular lymphoma does not impact overall survival. Cancer 2021; 127:3390-3402. [PMID: 34157780 DOI: 10.1002/cncr.33660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2020] [Revised: 10/09/2020] [Accepted: 11/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although many patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) undergo routine radiographic surveillance during their first remission, no consensus exists on the modality, duration, frequency, or need for routine imaging studies. The authors retrospectively examined the effect of surveillance imaging on relapse detection and overall survival (OS) in patients with FL. METHODS Patients with newly diagnosed FL who had a response to induction therapy were identified from the Lymphoid Malignancies Enterprise Architecture Database (LEAD) at Emory University and from the Molecular Epidemiology Resource (MER) of the University of Iowa/Mayo Clinic. Patients were evaluated for both relapse and method of relapse detection (ie, clinical concerns vs radiologic detection through surveillance imaging in an asymptomatic patient). RESULTS Of 148 patients in the LEAD cohort, 55 (37%) relapsed, and the majority (n = 35; 64%) of relapses were detected clinically. In the MER cohort, 63 of 177 relapses (54%) were detected clinically. There was no significant difference in OS from the date of diagnosis between the 2 methods of relapse detection in the LEAD (hazard ratio [HR], 0.61; 95% CI, 0.13-2.94; P = .54) and MER (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.47-2.21; P = .96) cohorts. Similarly, there was no significant difference in OS from the date of relapse between the 2 methods of relapse detection in the LEAD (HR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.10-2.27; P = .35) and MER (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.47-2.21; P = .96) cohorts. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest a limited role for routine surveillance imaging in patients with FL who complete front-line therapy. Future studies should evaluate which patients may benefit from a more aggressive surveillance approach and should explore novel methods of relapse detection.

Abstract
Cancer genomics has evolved over the years from understanding the pathogenesis of cancer to screening the future possibilities of cancer occurrence. Understanding the genetic profile of tumors holds a prognostic as well as a predictive value in this era of therapeutic surveillance, molecular remission, and precision medicine. Identifying molecular markers in tumors is the current standard of approach, and requires an efficient combination of an accessible sample type and a profoundly sensitive technique. Liquid biopsy or cell-free DNA has evolved as a novel sample type with promising results in recent years. Although cell-free DNA has significant role in various cancer types, this review focuses on its application in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Beginning with the current concept and clinical relevance of minimal residual disease in Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, we discuss the literature on circulating DNA and its evolving application in the realm of cutting-edge technology.

Abstract
Background Age-adjusted lymphoma incidence rates continue to rise in France since the early 80’s, although rates have slowed since 2010 and vary across subtypes. Recent improvements in patient survival in major lymphoma subtypes at population level raise new questions about patient outcomes (i.e. quality of life, long-term sequelae). Epidemiological studies have investigated factors related to lymphoma risk, but few have addressed the extent to which socioeconomic status, social institutional context (i.e. healthcare system), social relationships, environmental context (exposures), individual behaviours (lifestyle) or genetic determinants influence lymphoma outcomes, especially in the general population. Moreover, the knowledge of the disease behaviour mainly obtained from clinical trials data is partly biased because of patient selection. Methods The REALYSA (“REal world dAta in LYmphoma and Survival in Adults”) study is a real-life multicentric cohort set up in French areas covered by population-based cancer registries to study the prognostic value of epidemiological, clinical and biological factors with a prospective 9-year follow-up. We aim to include 6000 patients over 4 to 5 years. Adult patients without lymphoma history and newly diagnosed with one of the following 7 lymphoma subtypes (diffuse large B-cell, follicular, marginal zone, mantle cell, Burkitt, Hodgkin, mature T-cell) are invited to participate during a medical consultation with their hematologist. Exclusion criteria are: having already received anti-lymphoma treatment (except pre-phase) and having a documented HIV infection. Patients are treated according to the standard practice in their center. Clinical data, including treatment received, are extracted from patients’ medical records. Patients’ risk factors exposures and other epidemiological data are obtained at baseline by filling out a questionnaire during an interview led by a clinical research assistant. Biological samples are collected at baseline and during treatment. A virtual tumor biobank is constituted for baseline tumor samples. Follow-up data, both clinical and epidemiological, are collected every 6 months in the first 3 years and every year thereafter. Discussion This cohort constitutes an innovative platform for clinical, biological, epidemiological and socio-economic research projects and provides an opportunity to improve knowledge on factors associated to outcome of lymphoma patients in real life. Trial registration 2018-A01332–53, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03869619. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12889-021-10433-4.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common category of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). However, the underlying molecular mechanism of DLBCL remains unclear. METHODS Real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were performed to assess the expression of ubiquitin-specific peptidase 21 (USP21) or enhancer of zeste 2 polycomb repressive complex 2 subunit (EZH2). CCK8 assay and cell death staining were carried out to examine the role of USP21 in cell proliferation and cell death, respectively. RESULTS We found that the deubiquitinase USP21 was highly expressed in the DLBCL lymphoid tissue. The expression of USP21 promoted DLBCL cell proliferation, while it had no obvious effect on cell death. In addition, we found that USP21 regulated cell proliferation via cysteine 221, the catalytic site of USP21. Furthermore, we identified that USP21 could stabilize EZH2, a protein required for germinal center formation and lymphoma formation. CONCLUSION The deubiquitinase USP21 promotes cell proliferation by maintaining the EZH2 protein level in DLBCL.

Abstract
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) is a highly versatile analyte and an emerging biomarker for detection of tumour-specific sequences in lymphoid malignancies. Since ctDNA is derived from tumour cells throughout the body, it overcomes fundamental limitations of tissue biopsies by capturing the complete molecular profile of tumours, including those from inaccessible anatomic locations. Assays for ctDNA are minimally invasive and serial sampling monitors the effectiveness of therapy and identifies minimal residual disease below the detection limit of standard imaging scans. Dynamic changes in ctDNA levels measure real-time tumour kinetics, and early reductions in ctDNA during treatment correlate with clinical outcomes in multiple B-cell lymphomas. After therapy, ctDNA can effectively discriminate between patients who achieved a complete molecular remission from those with residual treatment-resistant disease. Serial monitoring of ctDNA after therapy can detect early molecular relapse and identify drug-resistant clones that harbour targetable mutations. In order for ctDNA to reach its full potential, the standardization and harmonization of the optimal pre-analytical and analytical techniques for B-cell lymphomas is a critically necessary requirement. Prospective validation of ctDNA within clinical studies is also required to determine its clinical utility as an adjunctive decision-making tool.

Abstract
Aim: Evaluate health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and health utility impact of single-agent selinexor in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Patients & methods: Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (FACT) - Lymphoma and EuroQoL five-dimensions five-levels data collected in the single-arm Phase IIb trial SADAL (NCT02227251) were analyzed with mixed-effects models. Results: Treatment responders maintained higher FACT - Lymphoma (p ≤ 0.05), FACT - General (p < 0.05) and EuroQoL five-dimensions five-levels index scores (p < 0.001) beginning in cycle 3. The estimated difference in health state utilities for treatment response and progressive disease was both statistically significant and clinically meaningful (mean difference: 0.07; p = 0.001). Conclusion: In patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, objective response to selinexor was associated with HRQoL maintenance, reduction in disease-related HRQoL decrements and higher health utilities.

Abstract
Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is an uncommon T-cell non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) associated with breast implants. Raising awareness of the possibility of BIA-ALCL in anyone with breast implants and new breast symptoms is crucial to early diagnosis. The tumour begins on the inner aspect of the peri-implant capsule causing an effusion, or less commonly a tissue mass to form within the capsule, which may spread locally or to more distant sites in the body. Diagnosis is usually made by cytological, immunohistochemical and immunophenotypic evaluation of the aspirated peri-implant fluid: pleomorphic lymphocytes are characteristically anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-negative and strongly positive for CD30. BIA-ALCL is indolent in most patients but can progress rapidly. Surgical removal of the implant with the intact surrounding capsule (total en-bloc capsulectomy) is usually curative. Late diagnosis may require more radical surgery and systemic therapies and although these are usually successful, poor outcomes and deaths have been reported. By adopting a structured approach, as suggested in these guidelines, early diagnosis and successful treatment will minimise the need for systemic treatments, reduce morbidity and the risk of poor outcomes.

Abstract
In this article, we broadly review the application of cfDNA analysis to the diagnosis and management of lymphoma. We introduce the advantages of cfDNA measurement over conventional tissue biopsy and describe how cfDNA may be utilized for both genotyping and detection of minimal residual disease. First, we discuss genotyping, beginning with differences in identifying mutations from the blood plasma vs. from circulating cells. We review the technical distinctions between PCR- and NGS-based assays and describe two important applications of NGS-based cfDNA tests, namely the identification of resistance mutations and classification of disease subtype. We discuss difficulties in genotyping diseases with low burden of tumor cells and the application of cfDNA assays in these contexts. Second, we describe the utility of ctDNA measurement in assessing MRD. We cover recent advances in the assessment of pre-treatment disease burden as a prognostic biomarker, detection of molecular response to therapy, and early detection of relapsing disease. Third, we explore select emerging areas of research in ctDNA technologies that show promise in boosting the performance of existing ctDNA-based assays. These include cell-free DNA fragment structure analysis or 'fragmentomics', epigenetic modifications, and novel circulating analytes such as tumor-educated platelets and extracellular vesicular DNA. We also discuss alternative analytes to blood plasma for tumor detection, such as urine, saliva, and stool. Finally, we present a case that highlights potential applications of ctDNA approaches to the management of patients with lymphoma, while also defining important prerequisite advances before this can be fully realized. We close with a look to the future of cfDNA applications, outlining one potential timeline and path forward towards routine clinical application.

Abstract
In 2013, the American Society of Hematology (ASH) published recommendations with Choosing Wisely to limit surveillance imaging in aggressive lymphoma. We studied surveillance imaging practice patterns for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) before and after the ASH Choosing Wisely campaign. We used OptumLabs Data Warehouse, a national insurance claims database, to retrospectively study imaging frequency in survivors of DLBCL from 2008 to 2016. Three time periods were defined: Period 1 (2008 to 2010), Period 2 (2011 to 2013), and Period 3 (2014 to 2016). One thousand four hundred seventy-two patients were included. Median follow up was approximately 2 years. During the first and second years of surveillance, imaging remained stable between Period 1 (years 1 and 2: 199 [91%] and 137 [83%], respectively) and Period 2 (years 1 and 2: 257 [88%] and 172 [77%], respectively; P = .38), but decreased in Period 3 (years 1 and 2: 315 [78%] and 83 [61%], respectively; P < .01). In a multivariable logistic regression, year after 2012 was a significant predictor of decreased overuse (more than two scans per year in the first year of surveillance; [odds ratio, 0.49 for 2013 v 2008; P = .02]). Our study demonstrated the rate of surveillance scans-both computed tomography and positron emission tomography imaging-in DLBCL decreased after the ASH Choosing Wisely campaign. Multiple factors, such as changes in recommendations, reimbursement, and provider knowledge base, may have all contributed and should be studied further.

Abstract
Extended post-therapy long-term survival of patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) may also lead to an increase of late adverse events. We retrospectively investigated the frequency and clinical manifestation of second primary malignancy (SPM) after rituximab-containing immunochemotherapy in patients with DLBCL treated at seven institutes belonging to the Kyoto Clinical Hematology Study Group (KOTOSG) from the perspective of the existence of past or synchronous cancer history. In a median follow-up period of 899 days, 69 SPMs were observed in 58 of 809 patients. The most frequent SPM was gastric cancer, followed by lung cancer and colorectal cancer. The cumulative incidence of SPM increased steadily over time and was not significantly influenced by the presence or absence of past or synchronous cancer history. Our study suggests the need for careful attention to SPM in patients with DLBCL in daily practice.

Abstract
Aim: Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the standard-of-care curative treatment for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (RR-DLBCL), but the relapse rate is usually high. Materials & methods: In this study, we treated 14 RR-DLBCL patients by combining ASCT and anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy. Results: Eleven (78.57%) patients achieved complete or partial remission. Median duration of progression-free survival was 14.82 months (95% CI: 0.00-31.20 months) with 6-month progression-free survival rate of 64.29% (95% CI: 39.18-89.40%). Median overall survival was not achieved, with 1-year overall survival rate of 65.48% (95% CI: 36.00-94.96%). No neurotoxicity was observed. Conclusion: Our study demonstrated safety and feasibility of ASCT and anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell treatment for RR-DLBCL patients.

Limiting surveillance imaging for patients with lymphoma in remission: a mixed methods study leading to a Choosing Wisely recommendation. BMJ Qual Saf 2020; 30:300-310. [PMID: 32467340 DOI: 10.1136/bmjqs-2019-010756] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2019] [Revised: 04/17/2020] [Accepted: 05/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Under the 'Choosing Wisely' (CW) framework, professional organisations internationally have advocated limiting imaging for asymptomatic patients following curative cancer therapy, based on limited value and high cost. F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-CT (PET/CT) was widely adopted locally for surveillance lymphoma imaging after 2004. OBJECTIVES Prior to ratification of a local CW recommendation to limit surveillance imaging in lymphoma, we aimed to assess: (A) performance characteristics of surveillance FDG-PET/CT; (B) rates, clinical consequences and costs of false positives (FP); and (C) patients and professionals' attitudes towards overuse. METHODS Mixed methods (quantitative and qualitative) study. We analysed surveillance FDG-PET/CT results of two patient cohorts (n1=215 Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma; n2=203 Hodgkin lymphoma only). FPs were defined by negative biopsy or clinical follow-up. We held focus group discussions and in-depth interviews eliciting attitudes of 26 patients and 11 clinicians, respectively. RESULTS FPs were observed in 25.1% (95% CI 20.5 to 30.5) per scan-cohort 1, and 41.7% (95% CI 37.9 to 45.6) per patient-cohort 2, engendering frequent additional testing. Specific characteristics and location of findings altered the FP rate. The estimated cost per relapse detected was $50 000 (cohort 2). Patients sought reassurance via surveillance imaging, which they considered highly accurate, yet stressful. Aware of radiation risks, they were largely unconcerned about consequences of FPs. Confidence in the treating physicians was an important factor in patients' acceptance of forgoing imaging. Clinicians, frequently under patient pressure to order imaging, generally believed that it did not affect prognosis (with important exceptions), welcomed professional guidelines, but rejected regulatory restrictions on its use. CONCLUSION Acceptance of CW recommendations to limit overuse may be enhanced by quantitative data on consequences and costs of surveillance imaging, supplemented by qualitative data on patient and physician attitudes.

Abstract
Lymphoma in HIV-infected patients is AIDS defining. This is the second most common AIDS defining malignancy after Kaposi's sarcoma. Development of lymphoma in HIV patients is related to immunosuppression and high viral load. Co-infection with other lymphotrophic viruses especially EBV is also strongly associated with development of lymphoma in HIV patients. Despite advances in HAART therapy, incidence of diffuse large B cell lymphoma in HIV-infected patients remains significantly higher than in the general population.Early diagnosis is challenging due to presence of opportunistic infections and atypical presentation of the lymphoma in this subset of patients. Atypical imaging findings are not unusual, and the diagnosis of lymphoma on imaging is on many occasions unexpected as the patient would ideally be initially investigated for presumed opportunistic infection.Lymphoma treatment approaches in HIV patients are complicated by comorbidity with opportunistic infections and performance status of the patients. Treatment failure and early relapse are also common in AIDS-related lymphoma. This review article highlights the common and unusual multimodality imaging findings in HIV-associated lymphoma.

Abstract
Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a new provisional category in the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification of lymphoid neoplasms, and its incidence is rising owing to increasing recognition of this complication of breast implant insertion. At a median of 10 years after implant insertion, the typical presenting features are sudden-onset breast swelling secondary to peri-implant effusion and less frequently mass-forming disease. Histologic features comprise pleomorphic cells expressing CD30 and negative anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) receptor, similar to systemic and cutaneous ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). The effusion-only subtype is generally indolent and curable with surgery, unlike the more aggressive mass-forming disease, for which systemic therapy is advocated. High clinical suspicion and pertinent use of radiologic and pathology modalities are essential for timely and accurate diagnosis of BIA-ALCL. Contemporary imaging techniques including US, mammography, breast MRI, CT, and PET/CT are routinely used in breast disease and lymphomas; however, the unique behavior of BIA-ALCL presents significant diagnostic and radiologic interpretative challenges, with numerous nuanced imaging features being pertinent, and current lymphoma staging and response guidelines are not easily applicable to BIA-ALCL. The authors evaluate available evidence in this evolving field; detail key indications, strengths, and limitations of the panoply of radiologic techniques for BIA-ALCL; and propose multiparametric imaging paradigms for management of the peri-implant effusion and mass-forming or advanced disease subtypes, with the goal of accurate optimal patient care. The authors also predict a future model of multimodal assessment using novel imaging and molecular techniques and define key research directions. ©RSNA, 2020.

Insignificance of surveillance imaging in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who achieved first complete remission: a retrospective cohort study. Int J Hematol 2020; 111:567-573. [PMID: 31939076 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-020-02819-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2019] [Revised: 01/02/2020] [Accepted: 01/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of scheduled imaging for patients who achieved first complete remission after CHOP-like chemotherapy plus rituximab. In this retrospective cohort study, we included 759 patients newly diagnosed with de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) at the Cancer Institute, Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research. Relapsed patients were divided into two groups based on method of diagnosis: clinical symptoms (symptom group, n = 57) or scheduled imaging (imaging group, n = 27). Our primary goal was to compare overall survival and relapse-free survival between the two groups. No significant difference in outcomes was found between the symptom and imaging groups. Median overall survival [7.5 years; 95% confidence interval (CI) 4.0-9.7 vs. 9.1 years; 95% CI 2.7 to not reached; P = 0.747), and median relapse-free survival (1.8 years; 95% CI 1.4-2.5 vs. 2.4 years; 95% CI 1.2-4.4; P = 0.108). Surveillance imaging in patients with DLBCL who achieved first complete remission did not demonstrate an advantage in terms of overall survival or relapse-free survival.
