Post-marketing surveillance of the safety and effectiveness of nivolumab for classic Hodgkin lymphoma in Japan. Int J Hematol 2024; 119:667-676. [PMID: 38521840 PMCID: PMC11136857 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-024-03734-y] [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: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Nivolumab was approved for relapsed/refractory classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) in Japan in 2016. After its approval, a prospective, non-interventional, observational post-marketing surveillance was initiated to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of nivolumab treatment for up to 12 months in patients with relapsed/refractory cHL. Of 304 registered patients, 288 were included in safety analyses and 282 in effectiveness analyses. There were 191 (66.3%) male patients, median age was 64.0 years, and 54 patients (18.8%) had performance status ≥ 2. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported in 183 (63.5%) patients, with grade 3-5 TRAEs in 86 (29.9%). The most common TRAEs were infusion reaction (14.6%), hepatic function abnormal (5.9%), interstitial lung disease (ILD) (5.6%), and hypothyroidism (5.2%). TRAEs of special interest in ≥ 5% of patients were infusion reaction (15.6%), hepatic failure/hepatic dysfunction/hepatitis/cholangitis sclerosing (13.2%), thyroid dysfunction (9.7%), and ILD (7.3%). In multivariable analyses, prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was a risk factor for hepatic failure/hepatic dysfunction/hepatitis/cholangitis sclerosing, and prior thyroid gland disorders was a risk factor for thyroid dysfunction. The overall response rate was 61.7%. In conclusion, nivolumab showed a similar safety profile and comparable effectiveness to that reported in clinical trials for relapsed/refractory cHL (CheckMate 205, ONO-4538-15).

Abstract
Introduction There is a growing body of evidence suggesting a causal relationship between interstitial lung disease (ILD) and air pollution, both for the development of the disease, and driving disease progression. We aim to provide a comprehensive literature review of the association between air pollution, and ILD, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Methods We systematically searched from six online database. Two independent authors (DL and CF) selected studies and critically appraised the risk of bias using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Findings are presented through a narrative synthesis and meta-analysis. Meta-analyses were performed exclusively when there was a minimum of three studies examining identical pollutant-health outcome pairs, all evaluating equivalent increments in pollutant concentration, using a random effects model. Results 24 observational studies conducted in 13 countries or regions were identified. Pollutants under investigation encompassed ozone (O3), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), Particulate matter with diameters of 10 micrometers or less (PM10) and 2.5 micrometers or less (PM2.5), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). We conducted meta-analyses to assess the estimated Risk Ratios (RRs) for acute exacerbations (AE)-IPF in relation to exposure to every 10 μg/m3 increment in air pollutant concentrations, including O3, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5. The meta-analysis revealed a significant association between the increased risk of AE-IPF in PM2.5, yielding RR 1.94 (95% CI 1.30-2.90; p = 0.001). Findings across all the included studies suggest that increased exposure to air pollutants may be linked to a range of health issues in individuals with ILDs. Conclusion A scarcity of available studies on the air pollutants and ILD relationship underscores the imperative for further comprehensive research in this domain. The available data suggest that reducing levels of PM2.5 in the atmosphere could potentially reduce AE frequency and severity in ILD patients.

Target Oncol 2021; 16:701-741. [PMID: 34582007 PMCID: PMC8613101 DOI: 10.1007/s11523-021-00838-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) among Asians accounts for ~ 40% of the global BC burden. Differences in BC risk, presentation, tumor biology, and response to treatment exist between Asian and non-Asian patients; however, Asian patients are often under-represented in clinical trials. This narrative review summarizes the efficacy and safety of pharmacological therapies for BC in Asian populations, with a focus on outcomes in Asian versus non-Asian patients treated with chemotherapy, hormone therapy, anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 targeted therapies, cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors, mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors, bone-targeted therapies, poly-ADP ribose polymerase, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and checkpoint inhibitors. While most therapies have demonstrated comparable efficacy and safety in Asian and non-Asian patients with BC, differences that are largely attributed to pharmacogenetic variations between populations exist. Pharmacogenetic differences may contribute to a reduced clinical benefit of tamoxifen, whereas improved clinical outcomes have been reported with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and CDK4/6 inhibitors in Asian versus non-Asian patients with BC. In particular, Asian patients have an increased incidence of hematological toxicities, including neutropenia, although adverse events can be effectively managed using dose adjustments. Recent trials with CDK4/6 inhibitors have increased efforts to include Asians within study subsets. Future clinical trials enrolling higher numbers of Asian patients, and an increased understanding of differences in patient and tumor genetics between Asians and non-Asians, have the potential to incrementally improve the management of BC in Asian patients.

Interstitial Lung Disease in Connective Tissue Disease: A Common Lesion With Heterogeneous Mechanisms and Treatment Considerations. Front Immunol 2021; 12:684699. [PMID: 34163483 PMCID: PMC8215654 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.684699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Connective tissue disease (CTD) related interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality of CTD. Clinically, CTD-ILD is highly heterogenous and involves rheumatic immunity and multiple manifestations of respiratory complications affecting the airways, vessels, lung parenchyma, pleura, and respiratory muscles. The major pathological features of CTD are chronic inflammation of blood vessels and connective tissues, which can affect any organ leading to multi-system damage. The human lung is particularly vulnerable to such damage because anatomically it is abundant with collagen and blood vessels. The complex etiology of CTD-ILD includes genetic risks, epigenetic changes, and dysregulated immunity, which interact leading to disease under various ill-defined environmental triggers. CTD-ILD exhibits a broad spectra of clinical manifestations: from asymptomatic to severe dyspnea; from single-organ respiratory system involvement to multi-organ involvement. The disease course is also featured by remissions and relapses. It can range from stability or slow progression over several years to rapid deterioration. It can also present clinically as highly progressive from the initial onset of disease. Currently, the diagnosis of CTD-ILD is primarily based on distinct pathology subtype(s), imaging, as well as related CTD and autoantibodies profiles. Meticulous comprehensive clinical and laboratory assessment to improve the diagnostic process and management strategies are much needed. In this review, we focus on examining the pathogenesis of CTD-ILD with respect to genetics, environmental factors, and immunological factors. We also discuss the current state of knowledge and elaborate on the clinical characteristics of CTD-ILD, distinct pathohistological subtypes, imaging features, and related autoantibodies. Furthermore, we comment on the identification of high-risk patients and address how to stratify patients for precision medicine management approaches.

Abstract
At the end of the last century, genetic studies reported that genetic information is not transmitted solely by DNA, but is also transmitted by other mechanisms, named as epigenetics. The well-described epigenetic mechanisms include DNA methylation, biochemical modifications of histones, and microRNAs. The role of altered epigenetics in the biology of various fibrotic diseases is well-established, and recent advances demonstrate its importance in the pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis-predominantly referring to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, the most lethal of the interstitial lung diseases. The deficiency in effective medications suggests an urgent need to better understand the underlying pathobiology. This review summarizes the current knowledge concerning epigenetic changes in pulmonary fibrosis and associations of these changes with several cellular pathways of known significance in its pathogenesis. It also designates the most promising substances for further research that may bring us closer to new therapeutic options.

Abstract
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T‐DXd: DS‐8201a) is an anti‐human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) Ab–drug conjugated with deruxtecan (DXd), a derivative of exatecan. The objective of this study was to characterize T‐DXd‐induced lung toxicity in cynomolgus monkeys. Trastuzumab deruxtecan was injected i.v. into monkeys once every 3 weeks for 6 weeks (10, 30, and 78.8 mg/kg) or for 3 months (3, 10, and 30 mg/kg). To evaluate the involvement of DXd alone in T‐DXd‐induced toxicity, DXd monohydrate was given i.v. to monkeys once a week for 4 weeks (1, 3, and 12 mg/kg). Interstitial pneumonitis was observed in monkeys given T‐DXd at 30 mg/kg or more. The histopathological features of diffuse lymphocytic infiltrates and slight fibrosis were similar to interstitial lung diseases (ILD)/pneumonitis related to anticancer drugs in patients, with an incidence that was dose‐dependent and dose‐frequency‐dependent. Monkeys receiving DXd monohydrate did not suffer lung toxicity, although the DXd exposure level was higher than that of DXd in the monkeys given T‐DXd. The HER2 expression in monkey lungs was limited to the bronchial level, although the lesions were found at the alveolar level. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed that T‐DXd localization was mainly in alveolar macrophages, but not pulmonary epithelial cells. These findings indicate that monkeys are an appropriate model for investigating T‐DXd‐related ILD/pneumonitis. The results are also valuable for hypothesis generation regarding the possible mechanism of T‐DXd‐induced ILD/pneumonitis in which target‐independent uptake of T‐DXd into alveolar macrophages could be involved. Further evaluation is necessary to clarify the mechanism of ILD/pneumonitis in patients with T‐DXd therapy.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) is a life-threatening adverse reaction. The Japanese population is more susceptible to DILD as compared with other populations, suggesting its pathogenesis could vary depending on ethnic genetic background. We conducted case-control studies to elucidate the association between DILD and HLA alleles in the Japanese. The 177 clinically diagnosed DILD patients and 3002 healthy controls for exploration and 55 DILD patients and 201 healthy controls for validation were genotyped for four HLA genes. HLA-DRB1*04:05 was significantly associated with DILD (corrected p = 0.014); this was also validated in the other set of patients/controls. Chemical drugs other than protein therapeutics showed this association (p = 1.7 × 10-4) . The Japanese population showed a higher HLA-DRB1*04:05 frequency than most other populations. In conclusion, HLA-DRB1*04:05 could be associated with DILD susceptibility in Japanese individuals, and its high general frequency may explain the high reported incidence of DILD in Japanese.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) is a serious side effect of chemotherapy in cancer patients with an extremely high mortality rate. In this study, to identify genetic variants with greater risk of DIILD, we carried out whole genome sequencing (WGS) of germline DNA samples from 26 patients who developed DIILD, and conducted a case-control association study between these 26 cases and general Japanese population controls registered in the integrative Japanese Genome Variation Database (iJGVD) as a screening study. The associations of 42 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) showing P < 0.0001 were further validated using an independent cohort of 18 DIILD cases as a replication study. A further combined analysis of the screening and replication studies showed a possible association of two SNVs, rs35198919 in intron 1 of the chromosome 22 open reading frame 34 (C22orf34) and rs12625311 in intron 1 of the teashirt zinc finger homeobox 2 (TSHZ2), with DIILD (Pcombined = 1.87 × 10−5 and 5.16 × 10−5, respectively). Furthermore, in a subgroup analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD), we observed seven candidate SNVs that were possibly associated with ILD (P < 0.00001). This is the first study to identify genetic markers for the risk of DIILD using WGS. Collectively, our novel findings indicate that these SNVs may be applicable for predicting the risk of DIILD in patients receiving chemotherapy.

Abstract
Fibrotic interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) have a high mortality rate with an unpredictable disease course and clinical features that frequently overlap. Recent data indicate important roles for genomics in the mechanisms underlying susceptibility and progression of pulmonary fibrosis. The impact of these genomic markers on pharmacotherapy and their contribution to outcomes is increasingly recognized. Interstitial lung abnormalities, frequently considered representative of early ILD, have been consistently associated with the MUC5B promoter polymorphism, a common gene variant. Other rare gene variant mutations, including TERT, TERC, SFTPC, and DKC1, may be present in patients with familial interstitial pneumonia and are frequently associated with a usual interstitial pneumonia pattern of fibrosis. The minor allele of the MUC5B rs35705950 genotype is prevalent in several sporadic forms of ILD, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Gene mutations that characterize familial pulmonary fibrosis may be present in patients with connective tissue disease-related ILD, such as rheumatoid arthritis-ILD. Additionally, shorter telomere lengths and mutations in telomere biology-related genes have been demonstrated in both familial and sporadic ILD, with significant implications for disease progression, lung function, and survival. An improved understanding of the impact of genetic and genomic risk factors on disease progression would better guide personalized therapeutic choices in persons with fibrotic ILD.

Abstract
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a diverse group of ∼200 acute and chronic pulmonary disorders that are characterized by variable amounts of inflammation, fibrosis and architectural distortion with substantial morbidity and mortality. Inaccurate and delayed diagnoses increase the risk, especially in developing countries. Studies have indicated the significant roles of genetic elements in ILDs pathogenesis. Therefore, the first genetic knowledge resource, ILDgenDB, has been developed with an objective to provide ILDs genetic data and their integrated analyses for the better understanding of disease pathogenesis and identification of diagnostics-based biomarkers. This resource contains literature-curated disease candidate genes (DCGs) enriched with various regulatory elements that have been generated using an integrated bioinformatics workflow of databases searches, literature-mining and DCGs–microRNA (miRNAs)–single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) association analyses. To provide statistical significance to disease-gene association, ILD-specificity index and hypergeomatric test scores were also incorporated. Association analyses of miRNAs, SNPs and pathways responsible for the pathogenesis of different sub-classes of ILDs were also incorporated. Manually verified 299 DCGs and their significant associations with 1932 SNPs, 2966 miRNAs and 9170 miR-polymorphisms were also provided. Furthermore, 216 literature-mined and proposed biomarkers were identified. The ILDgenDB resource provides user-friendly browsing and extensive query-based information retrieval systems. Additionally, this resource also facilitates graphical view of predicted DCGs–SNPs/miRNAs and literature associated DCGs–ILDs interactions for each ILD to facilitate efficient data interpretation. Outcomes of analyses suggested the significant involvement of immune system and defense mechanisms in ILDs pathogenesis. This resource may potentially facilitate genetic-based disease monitoring and diagnosis. Database URL: http://14.139.240.55/ildgendb/index.php

Abstract
Since the approval of the first molecularly targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), imatinib, in 2001, TKIs have heralded a new era in the treatment of many cancers. Among their innumerable adverse effects, interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of the most serious, presenting most frequently with dyspnea, cough, fever, and hypoxemia, and often treated with steroids. Of the 28 currently approved TKIs, 16 (57 %) are reported to induce ILD with varying frequency and/or severity. The interval from drug administration to onset of ILD varies between patients and between TKIs, with no predictable time course. Its incidence is variously reported to be approximately 1.6-4.3 % in Japanese populations and 0.3-1.0 % in non-Japanese populations. The mortality rate is in the range of 20-50 %. Available evidence (primarily following the use of erlotinib and gefitinib in Japan because of the unique susceptibility of that population) has identified a number of susceptibility and prognostic risk factors (male sex, a history of smoking, and pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis being the main ones). Although the precise mechanism is not understood, collective evidence suggests that immune factors may be involved. If TKI-induced ILD is confirmed by thorough evaluation of the patient and exclusion of other causes, management is supportive, and includes discontinuation of the culprit TKI and administration of steroids. Discontinuing the culprit TKI presents a clinical dilemma because the diagnosis of TKI-induced ILD in a patient with pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis can be challenging, the patient may have TKI-responsive cancer with no suitable alternative, and switching to an alternative agent, even if available, carries the risk of the patient experiencing other toxic effects. Preliminary evidence suggests that therapy with the culprit TKI may be continued under steroid cover and/or at a reduced dose. However, this approach requires careful individualized risk-benefit analysis and further clinical experience.
