RESUMEN
Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) encompasses 70% of cases of marginal zone lymphoma. Frontline bendamustine and rituximab (BR) were derived from trials involving other indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. Only one trial has evaluated frontline BR prospectively in EMZL. This retrospective study reports outcomes among EMZL patients receiving frontline BR. Twenty-five patients were included with a median age of 69 years (40-81). Five (20.0%) patients had stage I/II disease, and 20 (80.0%) had stage III/IV disease. The median number of cycles was 6.0 (3.0-6.0). Maintenance rituximab was administered to 10 (41.7%) individuals. Overall response rate (ORR) was 100.0% (60.0% complete response, 40.0% partial response). Medians of overall survival and progression-free survival were not reached. The estimated 2-year progression-free survival was 85.2% and overall survival was 100.0%. Four (16.6%) patients had infections related to treatment; 3 (12.0%) transformed to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; 5 (20.8%) had a relapse or progression of EMZL; and 3 (12.0%) died unrelated to BR. BR is an efficacious and well-tolerated front-line regimen for EMZL with response data consistent with existing literature.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) are essentially different manifestations of the same disease that are similarly managed. A number of molecular and cytogenetic variables with prognostic implications have been identified. Undetectable minimal residual disease at the end of treatment with chemoimmunotherapy or venetoclax-based combination regimens is an independent predictor of improved survival among patients with previously untreated or relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL. The selection of treatment is based on the disease stage, presence or absence of del(17p) or TP53 mutation, immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region mutation status, patient age, performance status, comorbid conditions, and the agent's toxicity profile. This manuscript discusses the recommendations outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of patients with CLL/SLL.

Brentuximab vedotin (BV) in combination with doxorubicin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (AVD) is increasingly used for frontline treatment of stage III/IV classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). Peripheral neuropathy (PN) was the most common and treatment-limiting side effect seen in clinical trials but has not been studied in a nontrial setting, in which clinicians may have different strategies for managing it. We conducted a multisite retrospective study to characterize PN in patients who received BV + AVD for newly diagnosed cHL. One hundred fifty-three patients from 10 US institutions were eligible. Thirty-four patients (22%) had at least 1 ineligibility criteria for ECHELON-1, including stage, performance status, and comorbidities. PN was reported by 80% of patients during treatment; 39% experienced grade (G) 1, 31% G2, and 10% G3. In total, BV was modified in 44% of patients because of PN leading to BV discontinuation in 23%, dose reduction in 17%, and temporary hold in 4%. With a median follow-up of 24 months, PN resolution was documented in 36% and improvement in 33% at the last follow-up. Two-year progression-free survival (PFS) for the advanced-stage patients was 82.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.76-0.90) and overall survival was 97.4% (95% CI, 0.94-1.00). Patients who discontinued BV because of PN did not have inferior PFS. In the nontrial setting, BV + AVD was associated with a high incidence of PN. In our cohort, which includes patients who would not have been eligible for the pivotal ECHELON-1 trial, BV discontinuation rates were higher than previously reported, but 2-year outcomes remain comparable.

INTRODUCTION: L-asparaginase-based chemotherapy regimens are effective for treating chemotherapy-resistant natural killer- (NK-) cell neoplasms. To treat these lymphoma subtypes in Asia, where NK/T-cell lymphomas are more prevalent, the NK-Cell Tumor Study Group developed the SMILE regimen, which includes a steroid, methotrexate, ifosfamide, L-asparaginase, and etoposide. In the US however, the only commercially available form of asparaginase is the pegylated form (PEG-asparaginase) which has been incorporated into a modified SMILE (mSMILE). We sought to study the toxicity associated with replacing L-asparaginase with PEG-asparaginase in mSMILE. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively identified all adult patients treated with the mSMILE chemotherapy regimen in our database at Moffitt Cancer Center (MCC) between December 1, 2009, and July 30, 2021. Patients were included if they were treated with mSMILE irrespective of their underlying diagnosis. Toxicity was assessed using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5. The rate of toxicity in our mSMILE treatment group was numerically compared to data published in a metanalysis of the SMILE regimen's toxicity (Pokrovsky et al., 2019). RESULTS: A total of 21 patients were treated with mSMILE at MCC during the 12-year analysis window. Compared to patients receiving the L-asparaginase-based SMILE, patients receiving mSMILE experienced grade 3 or 4 leukopenia less often, with a toxicity rate of 62% (median with SMILE, 85% [95% CI, 74%-95%]); thrombocytopenia, however, was more common, with a toxicity rate of 57% (median with SMILE, 48% [95% CI, 40%-55%]). Other hematological, hepatic and coagulation related toxicities were also reported. CONCLUSION: In a non-Asian population, the mSMILE regimen with PEG-asparaginase is a safe alternative to the L-asparaginase-based SMILE regimen. There is a comparable risk of hematological toxicity, and no treatment-related mortality was seen in our population.

CD19 targeted chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cell therapy (CAR-T) leads to B cell aplasia and low serum immunoglobulin levels. Long-lived CD19-negative plasma cells may persist through the therapy and generate antibodies. There is a paucity of data describing how CAR-T impacts the persistence of antibodies against vaccine-related antigens and the degree to which CAR-T recipients may respond to vaccines. We characterized the effect of CAR-T on pneumococcal immunoglobulin G (IgG) titers and determine whether pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) administered after CAR-T develops long-term humoral protection against pneumococcus. A retrospective chart review was performed to identify CAR-T recipients who had serum pneumococcal IgG titers drawn before (baseline) or at days +90, +180, +270, +360, or +540 after CAR-T. We then determined whether they received PCV13 vaccination at these timepoints. IgG concentration ≥1.3 µg/mL was considered protective for that serotype, and patients with ≥6/11 tested vaccine-specific serotypes meeting this threshold were deemed to have humoral protection against pneumococcus. Absolute pneumococcal IgG titers and the proportion of patients with humoral protection, stratified by serotype, and vaccination status were compared by paired nonparametric t-tests. Absolute counts for lymphocyte, CD4 T-cell, and CD19 cell and total IgG level, along with the rate of invasive pneumococcal infections, were measured at these timepoints. A total of 148 CAR-T recipients with pneumococcal IgG titers measured for at least one of the defined time points were identified. At baseline, 25% (19/76) patients with evaluable pneumococcal IgG titers met the definition of humoral protection. Among 44 patients with paired pneumococcal IgG titers at baseline and day+90, absolute IgG titers of all serotypes decreased (geometric mean = 0.41 and 0.32 µg/mL, respectively; P < .001). Thirteen patients were vaccinated following the titer blood draw at day+90 and had paired pneumococcal IgG titers at day+90 and day180. Absolute IgG titers of all vaccine specific serotypes in these vaccinated patients decreased from day+90 to day+180 (geometric mean = 0.36 and 0.29 µg/mL, respectively; P = .03). The proportion of patients meeting the criteria of humoral protection remained the same at day+180 despite vaccination at day+90. The results were similar among 8 patients vaccinated at day+180, as well as 7 patients consecutively vaccinated at day+90 and day+180 with corresponding pneumococcal IgG titers. When all vaccine-specific pneumococcal IgG titers were pooled together by timepoint regardless of vaccination status, the proportion of patients with humoral protection decreased until day+540. Some patients developed humoral protection after vaccination at day+360, maintained seroprotective IgG titers from baseline, or developed protection after receiving intravenous immunoglobulin treatment secondary to recurrent infections. Our study demonstrated that few large B cell lymphoma patients had humoral protection against pneumococcus at baseline, and existing IgG titers decreased after CAR-T. PCV13 vaccination at day+90 or day+180 after CAR-T did not increase humoral protection against pneumococcus. Only at day+540 was there evidence of humoral protection against pneumococcus in a modest proportion of patients. Clinical trials are needed to determine the optimal timing of vaccination, before or after CAR-T, to develop protective immunity against Streptococcus pneumoniae infections.

Patients with renal impairment (RI) are typically excluded from trials evaluating chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies. We evaluated the outcomes of patients with RI receiving standard of care (SOC) CAR T cell therapy for relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this retrospective, single-center cohort study of patients with R/R DLBCL treated with SOC axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) or tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) after 2 or more prior lines of therapy, renal and survival outcomes were compared based on RI and fludarabine dose reduction (DR) status. RI was defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 as determined by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation using day -5 creatinine (Cr) values. Acute kidney injury (AKI) was identified and graded using standard Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Renal recovery was considered to occur if Cr was within .2 mg/mL of baseline by day +30. Fludarabine was considered DR if given at <90% of the recommended Food and Drug Administration label dose. Among 166 patients treated with CAR T cell therapy were 17 patients (10.2%) with baseline RI and 149 (89.8%) without RI. After CAR T cell infusion, the incidence of any grade AKI was not significantly different between patients with baseline RI and those without RI (42% versus 21%; P = .08). Similarly, severe grade 2/3 AKI was seen in 1 of 17 patients (5.8%) with baseline RI and in 11 of 149 patients (7.3%) without RI (P = 1). Decreased renal perfusion (28 of 39; 72%) was the most common cause of AKI, with cytokine release syndrome (CRS) contributing to 17 of 39 AKIs (44%). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) did not differ between patients with RI and those without RI or between those who received standard-dose fludarabine and those who received reduced-dose fludarabine. In contrast, patients with AKI had worse clinical outcomes than those without AKI (multivariable PFS: hazard ratio [HR], 2.1; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2 to 3.7; OS: HR, 3.9; 95% CI, 2.1 to 7.4). Notably, peak inflammatory cytokine levels were higher in patients who experienced AKI. Finally, we describe 2 patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on dialysis who received lymphodepletion and CAR T cell therapy. Baseline renal function did not affect renal or efficacy outcomes after CAR T cell therapy in DLBCL. On the other hand, patients with AKI went on to experience worse clinical outcomes. AKI was commonly related to CRS and high peak inflammatory cytokine levels. CAR T cell therapy is feasible in patients with ESRD and requires careful planning of lymphodepletion.

The treatment landscape of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) has significantly evolved in recent years. Targeted therapy with Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors and BCL-2 inhibitors has emerged as an effective chemotherapy-free option for patients with previously untreated or relapsed/refractory CLL/SLL. Undetectable minimal residual disease after the end of treatment is emerging as an important predictor of progression-free and overall survival for patients treated with fixed-duration BCL-2 inhibitor-based treatment. These NCCN Guidelines Insights discuss the updates to the NCCN Guidelines for CLL/SLL specific to the use of chemotherapy-free treatment options for patients with treatment-naïve and relapsed/refractory disease.

Spontaneous spinal subdural hematomas (SSH) are rare occurrences that can occur most commonly secondary to vascular malformations or coagulopathies. Only a small fraction of spontaneous SSHs are caused by acquired coagulation disorders such as leukemia, hemophilia, and thrombocytopenia. This case report describes a patient with a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), hemophilia A, and mantle cell lymphoma, on zanubrutinib therapy, a Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor associated with a risk of spontaneous hemorrhage. This patient developed a spontaneous spinal subdural hematoma, most likely due to the zanubrutinib therapy and exacerbated due to hemophilia. Treatment was delayed due to the patient's history of GBS that confounded the clinical diagnosis. This case is the first report of a spontaneous SSH in a patient on zanubrutinib, highlighting the need for a high index of suspicion for CNS hemorrhage in patients on Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor therapy.
RESUMEN
Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) is a heterogeneous non-Hodgkin lymphoma. No consensus exists regarding the standard-of-care in patients with advanced-stage disease. Current recommendations are largely adapted from follicular lymphoma, for which bendamustine with rituximab (BR) is an established approach. We analyzed the safety and efficacy of frontline BR in EMZL using a large international consortium. We included 237 patients with a median age of 63 years (range, 21-85). Most patients presented with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 1 (n = 228; 96.2%), stage III/IV (n = 179; 75.5%), and intermediate (49.8%) or high (33.3%) Mucosa Associated Lymphoid Tissue International Prognosis Index (MALT-IPI). Patients received a median of 6 (range, 1-8) cycles of BR, and 20.3% (n = 48) received rituximab maintenance. Thirteen percent experienced infectious complications during BR therapy; herpes zoster (4%) was the most common. Overall response rate was 93.2% with 81% complete responses. Estimated 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 80.5% (95% CI, 73.1% to 86%) and 89.6% (95% CI, 83.1% to 93.6%), respectively. MALT-IPI failed to predict outcomes. In the multivariable model, the presence of B symptoms was associated with shorter PFS. Rituximab maintenance was associated with longer PFS (hazard ratio = 0.16; 95% CI, 0.04-0.71; P = .016) but did not impact OS. BR is a highly effective upfront regimen in EMZL, providing durable remissions and overcoming known adverse prognosis factors. This regimen is associated with occurrence of herpes zoster; thus, prophylactic treatment may be considered.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The treatment landscape of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has dramatically changed over the last few years with the introduction of novel targeted agents. Physicians are now faced with several equally effective therapy options when treating patients with CLL. Here, we review the role of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors in treating patients with treatment-naïve and relapsed or refractory CLL. We review recent approvals of BTK inhibitors as well as reported and ongoing clinical trial data. RECENT FINDINGS: The approval of ibrutinib rapidly led to a paradigm shift in the management of CLL. Randomized trials have now compared ibrutinib to several chemoimmunotherapy approaches, which were in favor of ibrutinib. Second-generation more selective BTK inhibitors, including acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib, have been developed, and recent data have led to the approval of acalabrutinib in CLL. Ongoing and future studies focus on either combining BTK inhibitors with other novel agents (e.g., venetoclax, obinutuzumab, or ublituximab) or developing next-generation non-covalent reversible BTK inhibitors that may be effective in treating patients with CLL harboring BTK-resistant mutations. The field of CLL continues to evolve rapidly with new and evolving combination treatments and novel BTK agents, which will continue to change the standard of care for CLL.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients who develop Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) have limited survival. No current therapeutic standard of care exists. We conducted a multi-center retrospective study of patients with Hodgkin Transformation (HT) of CLL. Clinicobiologic characteristics, treatment type, and survival outcomes were analyzed and compared with historic case series. Ninety-four patients were identified. Median age at HT was 67 years (range, 38-85). Median time from CLL diagnosis to HT was 5.5 years (range, 0-20.2). Prior to HT, patients received a median of 2 therapies for CLL (range, 0-12). As initial therapy for HT, 61% (n=62) received ABVD-based regimens (adriamycin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine). Seven (7%) patients received hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) while in first complete remission (CR1). The median number of treatments for HT per patient was 1 (range, 0-5) with 59 (61%) patients only receiving one line of therapy. After HT, patients had a median follow-up of 1.6 years (range, 0-15.1). Two-year overall survival (OS) after HT diagnosis was 72% (95%CI 62-83%). The patients who received standard ABVD-based therapy had a median OS of 13.2 years. Although limited by small sample size, the patients who underwent HCT for HT in CR1 had a similar 2-year OS (n=7; 67%) compared to patients who did not undergo HCT for HT in CR1 (n=87; 72%; p=0.46). In this multi-center study, HT patients treated with ABVD-based regimens had prolonged survival supporting the use of these regimens as standard of care for these patients.

We developed an outpatient salvage chemotherapy regimen using bendamustine, ofatumumab, carboplatin and etoposide (BOCE) to treat relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (RR NHL) in a single-center phase I/II study. Primary objectives were safety, tolerability and overall response rate (ORR). Thirty-five RR NHL patients (57% de novo large cell [DLBCL] or grade 3B follicular [FL], 26% transformed DLBCL, 9% grade 3A FL, 3% mantle cell; median age = 62, median prior therapies = 1) were treated. Median follow-up was 24.1 months. ORR was 69% (CR = 49%, PR = 20% [ORR = 70%, CR = 50%, PR = 20% in the de novo DLBCL/grade 3B FL subgroup]). Median progression-free survival was 5.1 months and overall-survival 26.2 months. Twelve patients subsequently underwent stem cell transplantation. The most common non-hematologic grade 3-4 toxicities were neutropenic fever and hypophosphatemia. There were no treatment-related deaths. In conclusion, BOCE is a safe and effective outpatient salvage regimen for patients with RR NHL and serves as an effective bridge to stem cell transplantation.

We conducted a phase I/II multicenter trial using 6 cycles of brentuximab vedotin (BV) in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (R-CHP) for treatment of patients with CD30-positive (+) B-cell lymphomas. Thirty-one patients were evaluable for toxicity and 29 for efficacy including 22 with primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL), 5 with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and 2 with gray zone lymphoma (GZL). There were no treatment-related deaths; 32% of patients had non-hematological grade 3/4 toxicities. The overall response rate was 100% (95% CI: 88-100) with 86% (95% CI: 68-96) of patients achieving complete response at the end of systemic treatment. Consolidative radiation following end of treatment response assessment was permissible and used in 52% of all patients including 59% of patients with PMBCL. With a median follow-up of 30 months, the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 85% (95% CI: 66-94) and 100%, respectively. In the PMBCL cohort, 2-year PFS was 86% (95% CI: 62-95). In summary, BV-R-CHP with or without consolidative radiation is a feasible and active frontline regimen for CD30+ B-cell lymphomas (NCT01994850).

Specific major histocompatibility (MHC) class I alleles dominate anti-CMV responses in a hierarchal manner. These CMV immunodominant (IMD) alleles are associated with a higher magnitude and frequency of cytotoxic lymphocyte responses as compared to other human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. CMV reactivation has been associated with an increased incidence of graft-vs.-host disease and non-relapse mortality, as well as protection from relapse in HLA-matched HSCT settings. Less is known about the impact of CMV reactivation on these major outcomes after haploidentical (HI) HSCT, an increasingly applied therapeutic option. In HI HSCT, the efficiency of the immune response is decreased due to the immune suppression required to cross the MHC barrier as well as MHC mismatch between presenting and responding cells. We hypothesized that the presence of a CMV IMD allele would increase the efficiency of CMV responses after HI HSCT potentially impacting CMV-related outcomes. In this retrospective, multivariable review of 216 HI HSCT patients, we found that CMV+ recipients possessing at least 1 of 5 identified CMV IMD alleles had a lower hazard of death (HR = 0.40, p = 0.003) compared to CMV+ recipients not possessing a CMV IMD allele, and an overall survival rate similar to their CMV- counterparts. The analysis delineated subgroups within the CMV+ population at greater risk for death due to CMV reactivation.
RESUMEN
We studied the association between non-HLA donor characteristics (age, sex, donor-recipient relationship, blood group [ABO] match, and cytomegalovirus [CMV] serostatus) and transplant outcomes after T-cell-replete HLA-haploidentical transplantation using posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) in 928 adults with hematologic malignancy transplanted between 2008 and 2015. Siblings (n = 358) and offspring (n = 450) were the predominant donors, with only 120 patients having received grafts from parents. Although mortality risks were higher with donors aged 30 years or older (hazard ratio, 1.39; P < .0001), the introduction of patient age to the Cox regression model negated the effect of donor age. Two-year survival adjusted for CMV seropositivity, disease, and disease risk index was lower in patients aged 55 to 78 years after transplantation of grafts from donors younger than 30 years (53%) or aged at least 30 years (46%) compared with younger patients who received grafts from donors younger than 30 years (61%) and at least 30 years (60%; P < .0001). Similarly, 2-year survival in patients aged 55 to 78 years was lower after transplantation of grafts from siblings (45%) or offspring (48%) compared with patients aged 18 to 54 years after transplantation of grafts from siblings (62%), offspring (58%), and parents (61%; P < .0001). Graft failure was higher after transplantation of grafts from parents (14%) compared with siblings (6%) or offspring (7%; P = .02). Other non-HLA donor characteristics were not associated with survival or graft failure. The current analyses suggest patient and disease, rather than non-HLA donor characteristics, predominantly influence survival in adults.

Patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) experiencing early therapy failure (ETF) within 2 years of frontline chemoimmunotherapy have poor overall survival (OS). We analyzed data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) and the National LymphoCare Study (NLCS) to determine whether autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (autoHCT) can improve outcomes in this high-risk FL subgroup. ETF was defined as failure to achieve at least partial response after frontline chemoimmunotherapy or lymphoma progression within 2 years of frontline chemoimmunotherapy. We identified 2 groups: the non-autoHCT cohort (patients from the NLCS with ETF not undergoing autoHCT) and the autoHCT cohort (CIBMTR patients with ETF undergoing autoHCT). All patients received rituximab-based chemotherapy as frontline treatment; 174 non-autoHCT patients and 175 autoHCT patients were identified and analyzed. There was no difference in 5-year OS between the 2 groups (60% versus 67%, respectively; P = .16). A planned subgroup analysis showed that patients with ETF receiving autoHCT soon after treatment failure (≤1 year of ETF; n = 123) had higher 5-year OS than those without autoHCT (73% versus 60%, P = .05). On multivariate analysis, early use of autoHCT was associated with significantly reduced mortality (hazard ratio, .63; 95% confidence interval, .42 to .94; P = .02). Patients with FL experiencing ETF after frontline chemoimmunotherapy lack optimal therapy. We demonstrate improved OS when receiving autoHCT within 1 year of treatment failure. Results from this unique collaboration between the NLCS and CIBMTR support consideration of early consolidation with autoHCT in select FL patients experiencing ETF.
