RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Both peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) and implanted port catheters (PORTs) are commonly used for the delivery of immunochemotherapy. We compared the safety of the two types of devices in a homogeneous and monocentric population of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients who were treated with first-line immunochemotherapy by evaluating the numbers of catheter-related venous thromboses (VTs) and infections that occurred in the six months after implantation according to the type of device. METHODS: Using a propensity score, the adjusted relative risk (ARR) between the type of catheter and the occurrence of catheter-related complications (infection and/or VT) of interest was retrospectively determined. RESULTS: 479 patients were enrolled (266 PORTs/213 PICCs), and 26 VTs (5.4%) and 30 infections (6.3%) were identified in the period following PICC/PORT implantation. The adjusted relative risk (ARR) of catheter-related complications (infection and/or VT) according to the type of device was 2.6 (95% CI =1.3-5.9, p = .0075). This risk increase associated with the PICC device was significant for both infections (ARR = 3.2; 95% CI = 1.3-10.9) and thrombosis (ARR = 4; 95% CI = 1.5-11.6). CONCLUSION: Our study supports the preferential use of PORTs for the first line of treatment for DLBCL patients.

RESUMO

CONTEXT: Bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is a common procedure in haematology used for the diagnosis and evaluation of response treatment. Because the procedure is difficult for haematologists to perform, patients often experience pain and stress. On Control, a system device, was introduced in the 2000s and uses a drill-powered needle to perform BMB. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to compare the quality of BMB, based on the length of the trephine, the number of interosseous spaces and the interpretability of the examination, obtained from manual BMB vs. drill-powered BMB. The secondary objectives were to evaluate the patient's pain and anxiety, and the haematologist's perceived difficulty in performing BMB. DESIGN: This was a retrospective study conducted between June 2016 and June 2017 in the Henri Becquerel Cancer Centre in Rouen, France. RESULTS: A total of 439 patients were included in the study; the sex ratio (M:F) was 1.34 and 70.2% underwent a drill-powered BMB. A significant difference was observed concerning trephine length (14.30 ± 5.58 mm with the drill-powered system vs. 11.18 ± 4.43 mm with manual BMB, p < 0.0001) and the number of interosseous spaces (9.49 ± 5.35 vs. 7.93 ± 4.01, respectively, p = 0.01). The interpretability of the examination did not differ between the two procedures (p = 0.9). CONCLUSIONS: On Control, the drill-powered system for BMB, is widely distributed in North America and Europe, but this procedure is not yet generally applied. Although this procedure is costly, the ongoing development of this technique, because of its performance, is beneficial especially to obese patients.

RESUMO

The BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax is transforming the management of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), given its high efficacy in relapsed/refractory CLL as observed in both early-phase and randomized clinical trials. The present study aimed to determine whether venetoclax is effective and well tolerated in patients with CLL or Richter's syndrome (RS) in a real-world setting and to highlight factors impacting survival. Data from a venetoclax French compassionate use program were collected for 67 patients (60 with CLL and 7 with RS). Most patients presented adverse genetic features, such as TP53 disruption (74%) or complex karyotype (58%). Tumor lysis syndrome was observed in 14 (22%) patients, and 16 (24%) patients were hospitalized for grade III/IV infection. In the CLL cohort, ORR was 75 %, 1-year PFS was 61% (95% CI = 47-72%) and 1-year OS 70% (95% CI = 56-80%). No impact of TP53 disruption was noted while complex karyotype was identified as a predictor of both inferior PFS (HR = 3.46; 95% CI = 1-12; log-rank p = 0.03) and OS (HR = 3.2; 95% CI = 0.9-11.4, log-rank p = 0.047). Among the seven patients with RS, two achieved an objective response to venetoclax; however, the median OS was only 1.1 month. The well-balanced safety/efficacy profile of venetoclax is confirmed in this real-world setting. Complex karyotype should be evaluated as a predictive factor of survival for patients treated by venetoclax.

RESUMO

Waldenström's disease is a B-cell neoplasm characterized by the accumulation of lymphoplasmacytic cells (LPCs) in the bone marrow, and more rarely in the lymph nodes and the spleen, which produce a monoclonal immunoglobulin M (IgM) protein. The diagnosis requires the identification of LPCs in the bone marrow, using specific markers in flow cytometry. The MYD88L265P mutation is found in 95% of cases and the CXCR4 mutation in 30-40% of cases. These markers must be sought because they have a diagnostic and prognostic role, and they might become predictive in the future. The clinical presentation is very variable, and includes anomalies related to the bone marrow infiltration of the LPCs (such as anemia), but also anomalies of the physico-chemical and/or immunological activity of the overproduced IgM (hyperviscosity, AL amyloidosis, cryoglobulinemia, anti-MAG neuropathies, etc.). Prognostic scores (IPSSWM) now make it possible to understand the prognosis of symptomatic WM requiring appropriate treatment. The therapeutic management depends on many parameters, such as the specific clinical presentation, the speed of evolution and of course the age and comorbidities. Immuno-chemotherapy is often the 1st line treatment (rituximab-cyclophosphamide-dexamethasone (RCD) or bendamustine-rituximab (BR)) but the role of targeted therapies is becoming preponderant. Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) are used today in first relapse. Other therapeutic perspectives will certainly allow us tomorrow to better understand this incurable chronic disease, such as new generations of BTKi, BCL2 inhibitors, anti-CXCR4, bi-specific antibodies, and CAR-T cells.

RESUMO

The mutational status of the variable region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IGHV) is a very important biomarker for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients. However, the routine detection of IGHV mutational status is time-consuming and costly. Therefore, we performed 5' Rapid amplification of cDNA ends (5' RACE) in 81 CLL patients who previously underwent detection using Biomed-2. The agreement rate of these two methods was 93.8 %. Regarding the discordant cases, 5' RACE was more sensitive to identify unproductive and multiple rearrangements. Furthermore, 5' RACE can also be used to simultaneously sequence light chains. In most CLL cases, the mutational statuses of heavy and light chains are concordant, except in IGLV3-21. Most IGLV3-21 (24/25) rearrangement shared a similar LCDR3 (QVWDSSSDHPWV) and harbored a single point mutation, namely, IGLV3-21R110. Compared to mutated-CLL non IGLV3-2R110, IGLV3-21R110-CLL exhibited a shorter overall survival (OS) and time to first treatment (TTFT) (p = 0.05, p < 0.0001, respectively) even though 75 % (18/24) of these patients expressed mutated heavy chains. Altogether, IGLV3-21R110 defines a CLL subgroup with specific biological features and an unfavorable prognosis independent of the IGHV mutational status and emphasizes the important value of the light chain. This study is the first to use 5' RACE to detect the mutational status of IGH in CLL. Here, 5' RACE was a reliable and effective method to test the mutational status of heavy and light chains. In addition, 5' RACE can be combined with other assays in the NGS workflow to obtain more detailed insight into subclonal architecture and intraclonal diversity.
