Abstract
How Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) occasionally occurs following chronic inflammation remains to be elucidated. The case of a 57-year-old man who developed pulmonary EBV-positive DLBCL from underlying silicosis lesions is presented. Immunohistochemical examination of the resected silicosis lesions showed predominant helper T cells and M1/M2 macrophages, with a lack of B cells, regulatory T cells, and resident memory T cells. Two years later, EBV-positive DLBCL emerged unexpectedly from the silicosis. The imbalance of the immune cells in the microenvironment, at least in part, may help explain how chronic inflammation contributes to EBV-positive DLBCL.

Presence of few PD-1-expressing tumor-infiltrating immune cells is a potential predictor of improved response to salvage chemotherapy following nivolumab for non-small cell lung cancer: An exploratory case series.

Abstract
Background The combination of PD‐1 inhibitors and cytotoxic drugs is reported to enhance anti‐tumor activity in non‐small cell lung cancer; however, the underlying synergistic mechanisms remain uncertain. This retrospective case series was designed to investigate objective response and survival rates of salvage chemotherapy following nivolumab and explore the immunohistochemical profiles of tumor‐infiltrating immune cells. Methods The medical records of 37 patients administered nivolumab were retrospectively reviewed. Overall response rate and progression‐free survival were compared among three groups: salvage chemotherapy following nivolumab, nivolumab therapy alone, and chemotherapy preceding nivolumab. Results Eight cases met the study criteria. Salvage chemotherapy following nivolumab improved the overall response rate to 62.5% (95% confidence interval [CI] 34.4–90.6%; P = 0.004) and median progression‐free survival to six months (95% CI 4.6–7.4; P = 0.016), compared to nivolumab alone and preceding chemotherapy. The response to salvage chemotherapy was not associated with tumor PD‐L1 expression. A partial response was achieved in four cases with ≤ 5% and ≤ 2.9 cells/mm2 of PD‐1+ immune cells, whereas stable disease and progressive disease were observed in three cases with ≥ 30% and ≥ 12.7 cells/mm2. Responders had fewer PD‐1+ immune cells than non‐responders (percentage P = 0.028; density P = 0.034). Conclusion Salvage chemotherapy following nivolumab improved anti‐tumor activity regardless of tumor PD‐L1 status, but nivolumab following chemotherapy did not. The presence of few PD‐1+ tumor‐infiltrating immune cells may serve as a potential predictor of response to salvage chemotherapy. Further studies involving a large cohort are needed to clarify how nivolumab re‐sensitizes the tumor immune microenvironment to chemotherapy.

Abstract
The combination of 1 KE/day of OK-432 (everyday) and 10 mg/day of Carboquone (once a week) had been administered for three weeks to 18 cases of the patients with unresectable lung cancer. The response rate was 50% in the patients whose diameters of tumors could be measured. These results might be provided by the fact that the large dose administration of Carboquone became possible with simultaneous administration of OK-432, which might have an activating effect of bone marrow function; consequently, original properties of alkylating agent could be utilized in this therapy. Leukopenia, (leukocyte counts: less than 3,000) was observed in 10 out of 18 cases (55.6%) at one week after administration of the drugs, and in all but one case leukopenia was recovered after 4 weeks of the administration. No other severe side effects were observed.
