Abstract
Class I histone deacetylases (HDACs) are closely associated with the development of a diverse array of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, HIV, and inflammatory diseases. Considering the essential roles in tumorigenesis, class I HDACs have emerged as highly desirable targets for therapeutic strategies, particularly in the field of anticancer drug development. However, the conventional class I HDAC inhibitors faced several challenges such as acquired resistance, inherent toxicities, and limited efficacy in inhibiting non-enzymatic functions of HDAC. To address these problems, novel strategies have emerged, including the development of class I HDAC dual-acting inhibitors, targeted protein degradation (TPD) technologies such as PROTACs, molecular glues, and HyT degraders, as well as covalent inhibitors. This review provides a comprehensive overview of class I HDAC enzymes and inhibitors, by initially introducing their structure and biological roles. Subsequently, we focus on the recent advancements of class I HDAC modulators, including isoform-selective class I inhibitors, dual-target inhibitors, TPDs, and covalent inhibitors, from the perspectives of rational design principles, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and clinical progress. Finally, we also provide the challenges and outlines future prospects in the realm of class I HDAC-targeted drug discovery for cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Recent advancements in comprehending peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) validate and broaden our perspective, highlighting their diverse nature and the varying molecular mechanisms underlying the entities. Based on a comprehensive accumulated understanding, the PTCLs currently overcome the most challenging features of any disease: rarity, incredible heterogeneity, and a lack of any established standard of care. The treatments deployed in the front-line are extrapolated from regimens developed for other diseases. The recent approval of the three drugs brentuximab vedotin (BV), pralatrexate, and belinostat for patients with relapsed or refractory disease has provided clues about pathophysiology and future directions, though challenges satisfying post-marketing requirements (PMR) for those accelerated approvals have led to one of those drugs being withdrawn and put the other two in jeopardy. Edits of the front-line regimens, often called CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone)-plus approaches, look more like CHOP-minus strategies, as the toxicity of five-drug regimens often reduces the dose intensity of the added 'novel' drug, nullifying any hope of an advance. The turmoil in the field produced by the aforementioned, coupled with an ever-changing classification, has left the field uncertain about the path forward. Despite these challenges, empiric findings from studies of novel drug approaches, coupled with a logic emerging from studies of PTCL lymphomagenesis, have begun to illuminate, albeit faintly for some, a potential direction. The empiric finding that drugs targeting the discrete components of the PTCL epigenome, coupled with the description of multiple mutations in genes that govern epigenetic biology, offers, at the very least, an opportunity to finally be hypothesis-driven. The most recent recognition that the only combination of drugs shown to markedly improve progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with relapsed disease is one based on dual targeting of different and discrete components of that epigenetic biology has established a possibility that circumnavigating chemotherapy addition studies is both plausible, feasible, and likely the best prospect for a quantum advance in this disease. Herein, we analyze PTCL through a 2025 lens, highlighting and underscoring walls that have impeded progress. We will critically explore all the clues and the panoramic view of PTCL research.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are emerging as promising treatments for hematological malignancies, with potential applications extending to solid tumors in the future. Given their wide-ranging biological effects, there is a pressing need for a thorough understanding of the toxicities linked to HDAC inhibition. In this study, a pharmacovigilance analysis was conducted using the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System database. Suspected adverse events linked to HDAC inhibitors were detected through various statistical methodologies, including reporting odds ratio, proportional reporting ratio, information component, and Empirical Bayes Geometric Mean. Our study findings have illuminated that, among the total reported cases examined, gastrointestinal disorders accounted for 13% patients of the cohort, while lymphatic system disorders comprised 8% cases of the cohort, all of which manifested as adverse events induced by HDAC inhibitors. Importantly, the usage of HDAC inhibitors was found to be associated with incidents of atrial fibrillation, heart failure, respiratory failure, hepatic dysfunction, and acute kidney injury. Romidepsin and belinostat demonstrated more pronounced signals of adverse events compared to panobinostat and vorinostat, emphasizing the need for vigilant monitoring of adverse events in this particular population. Furthermore, atrial fibrillation (clinical priority score of 7 points) emerged as the paramount medical event warranting utmost clinical attention. Eventually, multiple adverse events were observe to emerge within the initial and second months following the initiation of treatment. Vigilant monitoring and supportive care strategies are critical in addressing the toxicities associated with HDAC inhibitors, particularly those concerning cardiotoxicity, respiratory toxicity, renal toxicity, and hepatotoxicity.

Abstract
Basic research to expand treatment options for multiple myeloma is greatly needed due to the refractory nature of the disease. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors, which are epigenetic regulators, are attractive but have limited applications. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which are also epigenetic regulators, are important molecules that may lead to future therapeutic breakthroughs. In this study, we comprehensively searched for miRNAs that are altered by HDAC inhibitors in myeloma cells. We identified miR-7-5p (miR-7) as a miRNA downregulated by HDAC inhibitors. Transfection of myeloma cell lines with miR-7 suppressed cell proliferation, induced apoptosis, and enhanced the effects of the HDAC inhibitor panobinostat. Expression of miR-7 was downregulated by c-Myc inhibition, but upregulated by bortezomib. Comprehensive examination of miR-7 targets revealed four candidates: SLC6A9, LRRC59, EXOSC2, and PSME3. Among these, we focused on PSME3, an oncogene involved in proteasome capacity in myeloma cells. PSME3 knockdown increases myeloma cell death and panobinostat sensitivity. In conclusion, miR-7, which is downregulated by HDAC inhibitors, is a tumor suppressor that targets PSME3. This miR-7 downregulation may be involved in HDAC inhibitor resistance. In addition, combinations of anti-myeloma drugs that complement changes in miRNA expression should be considered.

Safety and effectiveness of mogamulizumab in relapsed or refractory CC chemokine receptor 4-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma and relapsed or refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma: A post-marketing surveillance in Japan. Hematol Oncol 2024; 42:e3292. [PMID: 38847317 DOI: 10.1002/hon.3292] [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: 12/27/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
Mogamulizumab is a humanized antibody targeting CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4). This post-marketing surveillance was conducted in Japan as a regulatory requirement from 2014 to 2020 to ensure the safety and effectiveness of mogamulizumab in patients with relapsed or refractory (r/r) CCR4-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) or r/r cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Safety and effectiveness data were collected for up to 31 weeks after treatment initiation. A total of 142 patients were registered; safety was evaluated in 136 patients. The median number of doses was 8.0 (range, 1-18). The main reasons for treatment termination were insufficient response (22.1%) and adverse events (13.2%). The frequency of any grade adverse drug reaction was 57.4%, including skin disorders (26.5%), infections and immune system disorders (16.2%), and infusion-related reactions (13.2%). Graft-versus-host disease, grade 2, developed in one of two patients who underwent allogeneic-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after receiving mogamulizumab. Effectiveness was evaluated in 131 patients (103 with PTCL; 28 with CTCL). The best overall response rate was 45.8% (PTCL, 47.6%; CTCL, 39.3%). At week 31, the survival rate was 69.0% (95% confidence interval, 59.8%-76.5%) [PTCL, 64.4% (54.0%-73.0%); CTCL, 90.5% (67.0%-97.5%)]. Safety and effectiveness were comparable between patients <70 and ≥ 70 years old and between those with relapsed and refractory disease. The safety and effectiveness of mogamulizumab for PTCL and CTCL in the real world were comparable with the data reported in previous clinical trials. Clinical Trial Registration.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) mature natural killer cell and T-cell lymphoma have limited treatment options. To evaluate pralatrexate's performance and factors influencing its safety and efficacy in R/R peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), we performed a pooled analysis of data from 4 similarly designed, regulatory-mandated prospective clinical trials. Of 221 patients (median age, 59 years; 67.0% male) in the study population, 48.9% had PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS), 21.3% angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, and 11.8% ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Patients received pralatrexate for a median of 2.56 months (range, 0.03-24.18) and had a 40.7% objective response rate with a median duration of response of 9.1 months, progression-free survival 4.6 months, and overall survival 16.3 months. The most common treatment-related all-grade adverse events were stomatitis, thrombocytopenia, white blood cell count decrease, pyrexia, and vomiting. Subgroup exploratory analyses suggest improved efficacy with 1 prior line of chemotherapy vs 2 or ≥4 prior lines; PTCL-NOS or ALCL vs transformed mycosis fungoides; chemotherapy and transplant before pralatrexate vs chemotherapy alone or chemotherapy with other nontransplant treatments. In conclusion, these pooled analysis results further support using pralatrexate in patients with R/R PTCL. Prospective studies are needed to confirm the findings of subgroups analyses.

Abstract
Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) represents a group of heterogeneous hematological malignancies, which are notoriously challenging to treat and outcomes are typically poor. Over the past two decades, clinical prognostic indices for patient risk stratification have evolved, while several targeted agents are now available to complement combination chemotherapy in the frontline setting or as a salvage strategy. With further understanding of the molecular pathobiology of PTCL, several innovative approaches incorporating immunomodulatory agents, epigenetic therapies, oncogenic kinase inhibitors and immunotherapeutics have come to the forefront. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the progress in developing clinical prognostic indices for PTCL and describe the broad therapeutic landscape, emphasizing novel targetable pathways that have entered early phase clinical studies.

Inhibition of HDAC2 sensitises antitumour therapy by promoting NLRP3/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in colorectal cancer. Clin Transl Med 2024; 14:e1692. [PMID: 38804602 PMCID: PMC11131357 DOI: 10.1002/ctm2.1692] [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: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/27/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although numerous studies have indicated that activated pyroptosis can enhance the efficacy of antitumour therapy in several tumours, the precise mechanism of pyroptosis in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. METHODS Pyroptosis in CRC cells treated with antitumour agents was assessed using various techniques, including Western blotting, lactate dehydrogenase release assay and microscopy analysis. To uncover the epigenetic mechanisms that regulate NLRP3, chromatin changes and NLRP3 promoter histone modifications were assessed using Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin using sequencing and RNA sequencing. Chromatin immunoprecipitation‒quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to investigate the NLRP3 transcriptional regulatory mechanism. Additionally, xenograft and patient-derived xenograft models were constructed to validate the effects of the drug combinations. RESULTS As the core molecule of the inflammasome, NLRP3 expression was silenced in CRC, thereby limiting gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis. Supplementation with NLRP3 can rescue pyroptosis induced by antitumour therapy. Overexpression of HDAC2 in CRC silences NLRP3 via epigenetic regulation. Mechanistically, HDAC2 suppressed chromatin accessibility by eliminating H3K27 acetylation. HDAC2 knockout promotes H3K27ac-mediated recruitment of the BRD4-p-P65 complex to enhance NLRP3 transcription. Inhibiting HDAC2 by Santacruzamate A in combination with classic antitumour agents (5-fluorouracil or regorafenib) in CRC xenograft-bearing animals markedly activated pyroptosis and achieved a significant therapeutic effect. Clinically, HDAC2 is inversely correlated with H3K27ac/p-P65/NLRP3 and is a prognostic factor for CRC patients. CONCLUSION Collectively, our data revealed a crucial role for HDAC2 in inhibiting NLRP3/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in CRC cells and highlighted HDAC2 as a potential therapeutic target for antitumour therapy. HIGHLIGHTS Silencing of NLRP3 limits the GSDMD-dependent pyroptosis in colorectal cancer. HDAC2-mediated histone deacetylation leads to epigenetic silencing of NLRP3. HDAC2 suppresses the NLRP3 transcription by inhibiting the formation of H3K27ac/BRD4/p-P65 complex. Targeting HDAC2 activates pyroptosis and enhances therapeutic effect.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aggressive T-cell lymphomas continue to have a poor prognosis. There are over 30 different subtypes of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), and we are now beginning to understand the differences between the various subtypes beyond histologic variations. MOLECULAR PATHOGENESIS OF VARIOUS SUBTYPES OF PTCL Gene expression profiling and other molecular techniques have enabled deeper understanding of differences in various subtypes as reflected in the latest 5th WHO classification of PTCL. It is becoming increasingly clear that therapeutic approaches that target specific cellular pathways are needed to improve the clinical outcomes of PTCL. TARGETED THERAPIES There are many targeted agents currently in various stages of clinical trials for PTCL that take advantage of the differential expression of specific proteins or receptors in PTCL tumors. This includes the CD30 directed antibody drug conjugate brentuximab vedotin. Other notable targets are phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors, histone deacetylase inhibitors, CD25, and chemokine receptor 4. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitors are promising for ALK expressing tumors. IMMUNOTHERAPIES Allogeneic stem cell transplant continues to be the curative therapy for most aggressive subtypes of PTCL. The use of checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of PTCL is still controversial, with best results seen in cases of extranodal natural killer cell/T-cell lymphoma. Bispecific antibody-based treatments and chimeric antigen receptor cell-based therapies are in clinical trials.

Abstract
The prevalence of metabolic diseases is increasing at a frightening rate year by year. The burgeoning development of deep learning enables drug design to be more efficient, selective, and structurally novel. The critical relevance of Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) to the pathogenesis of several metabolic diseases makes it a promising drug target for curbing metabolic disorders. The present study aims to design new specific HDAC11 inhibitors for the treatment of metabolic diseases. Deep learning was performed to learn the properties of existing HDAC11 inhibitors and yield a novel compound library containing 23,122 molecules. Subsequently, the compound library was screened by ADMET properties, Lipinski & Veber rules, traditional machine classification models, and molecular docking, and 10 compounds were screened as candidate HDAC11 inhibitors. The stability of the 10 new molecules was further evaluated by deploying RMSD, RMSF, MM/GBSA, free energy landscape mapping, and PCA analysis in molecular dynamics simulations. As a result, ten compounds, Cpd_17556, Cpd_2184, Cpd_8907, Cpd_7771, Cpd_14959, Cpd_7108, Cpd_12383, Cpd_13153, Cpd_14500and Cpd_21811, were characterized as good HDAC11 inhibitors and are expected to be promising drug candidates for metabolic disorders, and further in vitro, in vivo and clinical trials to demonstrate in the future.

Abstract
Relapsed/refractory (R/R) peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) has a poor prognosis, with limited treatment options and generally no durable response. However, long-term remission with the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor romidepsin has been reported, especially in angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL). Recently, tucidinostat, a novel oral HDAC inhibitor that selectively inhibits class I and class IIb HDACs, was approved for R/R PTCL in China and Japan. We present the case of a patient with AITL whose gastrointestinal symptoms and health-related quality of life improved after switching from romidepsin to tucidinostat as maintenance therapy. Romidepsin and tucidinostat appear to have different safety profiles; non-haematological toxicities such as nausea, vomiting, constipation, anorexia and fatigue may be reported less frequently with tucidinostat than with romidepsin. This case suggests that switching to tucidinostat therapy may be a viable option for patients with PTCL suffering from severe gastrointestinal adverse events with romidepsin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism mediating the inhibitory effect of chidamide on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells. METHODS ESCC cell lines KYSE-150, KYSE-450 and KYSE-510 were treated with 5, 10, 20, or 40 μmol/L of chidamide, and the changes in cell proliferation, colony-forming capacity, cell apoptosis and cell cycle were assessed using MTT aasay, colony formation experiment and flow cytometry. Western blotting was performed to detect the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3, cleaved PARP, p21, cyclin D1, p-Akt, p-ERK1/2, γH2AX, H3K9ac, and Ki-67. In a nude mouse model bearing subcutaneous ESCC xenografts, the effects of intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg chidamide for 3 days on tumor size and body weight were observed every 3 days, and Ki-67 and CD31 expressions in the tumor tissues were detected using immunohistochemistry. Tubular formation experiment was used to examine the effect of chidamide on tubular formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro. RESULTS In cultured ESCC cell lines, chidamide significantly inhibited cell proliferation and colony formation (P < 0.05), promoted cell apoptosis, and increased the percentage of G0/G1 phase cells (all P < 0.01). Chidamide obviously up-regulated cleaved caspase-3, cleaved PARP, p21, γH2AX, and H3K9ac and down-regulated cyclin D1, p-Akt and p-ERK1/2, and Ki-67 in the cells (P < 0.01). In the tumor-bearing mouse models, treatment with chidamide significantly reduced the tumor volume (P < 0.05), tumor to body weight ratio (P < 0.01), and the expression levels of Ki-67 and CD31 in the tumors (P < 0.01). Chidamide also significantly inhibited tubule formation in cultured HUVECs (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Chidamide inhibits proliferation, induces apoptosis and blocks cell cycle of ESCC cells possibly by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt and ERK1/2 pathways and increasing DNA damage. Chidamide also inhibits subcutaneous tumorigenesis of ESCC cells in mice by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and angiogenesis.

Abstract
Epigenetic changes contribute to the profound alteration in the transcriptional program associated with the onset and progression of muscle wasting in several pathological conditions. Although HDACs and their inhibitors have been extensively studied in the field of muscular dystrophies, the potential of epigenetic inhibitors has only been marginally explored in other disorders associated with muscle atrophy, such as in cancer cachexia and sarcopenia. BET inhibitors represent a novel class of recently developed epigenetic drugs that display beneficial effects in a variety of diseases beyond malignancies. Based on the preliminary in vitro and preclinical data, HDACs and BET proteins contribute to the pathogenesis of cancer cachexia and sarcopenia, modulating processes related to skeletal muscle mass maintenance and/or metabolism. Thus, epigenetic drugs targeting HDACs and BET proteins may emerge as promising strategies to reverse the catabolic phenotype associated with cachexia and sarcopenia. Further preclinical studies are warranted to delve deeper into the molecular mechanisms associated with the functions of HDACs and BET proteins in muscle atrophy and to establish whether their epigenetic inhibitors represent a prospective therapeutic avenue to alleviate muscle wasting.

Abstract
Background ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALK-ALCL) is a rare heterogeneous malignancy of T-cell origin.ALK- ALCL has a poor prognosis, with more patients experiencing relapses and refractory to treatment, and its treatment remains challenging. We report a case with bone involvement as the main clinical manifestation of recurrent, and the patient achieved significant partial remission after brentuximab vedotin(BV) combined with a modified CHEP chemotherapy containing mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome (PLM60) with the addition of chidamide maintenance therapy and received regular follow-up, with a disease-free survival of 16 months to date. A literature review of the clinical presentation and treatment of ALCL was also conducted to identify strategies for its diagnosis and management. Conclusions ALK-ALCL with bone involvement as the main manifestation of recurrent is relatively rare. Here, BV combined a modified CHEP chemotherapy containing mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome was applied for the first time in a patient with relapsed ALK-ALCL, inducing remission and extending survival. However, further prospective studies with many patients are needed to determine the biological characteristics of this rare type of ALK-ALCL and relevant treatment strategies.

Abstract
Breast cancer pathogenesis, treatment, and patient outcomes are shaped by tumor-intrinsic genomic alterations that divide breast tumors into molecular subtypes. These molecular subtypes often dictate viable therapeutic interventions and, ultimately, patient outcomes. However, heterogeneity in therapeutic response may be a result of underlying epigenetic features that may further stratify breast cancer patient outcomes. In this review, we examine non-genetic mechanisms that drive functional changes to chromatin in breast cancer to contribute to cell and tumor fitness and highlight how epigenetic activity may inform the therapeutic response. We conclude by providing perspectives on the future of therapeutic targeting of epigenetic enzymes, an approach that holds untapped potential to improve breast cancer patient outcomes.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) comprised more than 30 rare heterogeneous entities, representing 10 to 15% of adult non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Although their diagnosis is still mainly based on clinical, pathological, and phenotypic features, molecular studies have allowed for a better understanding of the oncogenic mechanisms involved and the refinement of many PTCL entities in the recently updated classifications. The prognosis remains poor for most entities (5-year overall survival < 30%), with current conventional therapies based on anthracyclin-based polychemotherapy regimen, despite many years of clinical trials. The recent use of new targeted therapies appears to be promising for relapsed/refractory patients, such as demethylating agents in T-follicular helper (TFH) PTCL. However further studies are needed to evaluate the proper combination of these drugs in the setting of front-line therapy. In this review, we will summarize the oncogenic events for the main PTCL entities and report the molecular targets that have led to the development of new therapies. We will also discuss the development of innovative high throughput technologies that aid the routine workflow for the histopathological diagnosis and management of PTCL patients.

Abstract
Background The overall survival of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is dismal. Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors have exhibited promising treatment outcomes for PTCL patients. Therefore, this work aims to systematically evaluate the treatment outcome and safety profile of HDAC inhibitor-based treatment for untreated and relapsed/refractory (R/R) PTCL patients. Methods The prospective clinical trials of HDAC inhibitors for the treatment of PTCL were searched on the Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Cochrane Library database. The pooled overall response rate, complete response (CR) rate, and partial response rate were measured. The risk of adverse events was evaluated. Moreover, the subgroup analysis was utilized to assess the efficacy among different HDAC inhibitors and efficacy in different PTCL subtypes. Results For untreated PTCL, 502 patients in seven studies were involved, and the pooled CR rate was 44% (95% CI, 39-48%). For R/R PTCL patients, there were 16 studies included, and the CR rate was 14% (95% CI, 11-16%). The HDAC inhibitor-based combination therapy exhibited better efficacy when compared with HDAC inhibitor monotherapy for R/R PTCL patients (P = 0.02). In addition, the pooled CR rate was 17% (95% CI, 13-22%), 10% (95% CI, 5-15%), and 10% (95% CI, 5-15%) in the romidepsin, belinostat, and chidamide monotherapy subgroups, respectively. In the R/R angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma subgroup, the pooled ORR was 44% (95% CI, 35-53%), higher than other subtypes. A total of 18 studies were involved in the safety assessment of treatment-related adverse events. Thrombocytopenia and nausea were the most common hematological and non-hematological adverse events, respectively. Conclusion This meta-analysis demonstrated that HDAC inhibitors were effective treatment options for untreated and R/R PTCL patients. The combination of HDAC inhibitor and chemotherapy exhibited superior efficacy to HDAC inhibitor monotherapy in the R/R PTCL setting. Additionally, HDAC inhibitor-based therapy had higher efficacy in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma patients than that in other subtypes.

Abstract
A Japanese subgroup analysis from the Asian phase II study of darinaparsin in patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) was performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety outcomes of the Japanese population. In this Asian phase II study, darinaparsin was administered to 65 patients, including 37 Japanese patients. In the Japanese population, the histopathological type of PTCL was PTCL, not otherwise specified in 26 patients (70.3%), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma in 9 patients (24.3%) and anaplastic large cell lymphoma, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) -negative in 2 patients (5.4%), and the median patient age was 70.0 (range: 43-85). 94.6% and 35.1% of the Japanese population had previously received multi-agent and single-agent regimen, respectively. The efficacy and safety were summarized and compared between the overall and Japanese populations. Based on central assessment, the overall response rate was 22.2% (8/36; 90% confidence interval [CI]: 11.6-36.5) in the Japanese population and 19.3% (11/57; 90% CI: 11.2-29.9) in the overall population. There were no essential differences in the safety profile of darinaparsin between the Japanese population and the overall population. The results of this subgroup analysis indicate that the efficacy and safety profiles of the Japanese subpopulation were broadly consistent with that of the overall population, and that darinaparsin is potentially an effective treatment with a manageable safety profile in Japanese patients with relapse or refractory PTCL.
