RESUMO
Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), received early access program (EAP) authorization in France in April 2021 for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). We conducted a real-world registry-based multicentre observational study in 11 French hospitals to evaluate ide-cel outcomes. Data from 176 RRMM patients who underwent apheresis between June 2021 and November 2022 were collected from the French national DESCAR-T registry. Of these, 159 patients (90%) received ide-cel. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in 90% with 2% grade ≥3, and neurotoxicity occurred in 12% with 3% grade ≥3. Over the first 6 months, the best overall response and ≥complete response rates were 88% and 47% respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) from the ide-cel infusion was 12.5 months, the median overall survival (OS) was 20.8 months and the estimated OS rate at 12 months was 73.3%. Patients with extra-medullary disease (EMD) had impaired PFS (6.2 months vs. 14.8 months). On multivariable analysis, EMD and previous exposure to BCMA-targeted immunoconjugate or T-cell-redirecting GPRC5D bispecific antibody were associated with inferior PFS. Our study supports ide-cel's feasibility, safety and efficacy in real-life settings, emphasizing the importance of screening for EMD and considering prior treatments to optimize patient selection.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Access to clinical trials and especially early-phase trials (ECT) is an important issue in geriatric oncology. As cancer can be considered an age-related disease because the incidence of most cancers increases with age, new drugs should also be evaluated in older patients to assess their safety and efficacy. The EGALICAN-2 study was primarily designed to identify social and/or regional inequalities regarding access to ECT. We focused on the factors of inequalities in access to ECT in older patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: During a 1-year period (2015-2016), a survey was conducted in 11 early-phase units certified by the French National Cancer Institute. RESULTS: A total of 1319 patients were included in the analyses: 1086 patients (82.3%) were <70 years and 233 patients (17.7%) were >70 years. The most common tumor types at referral in older patients were gastrointestinal (19.3%), hematological (19.3%), and thoracic tumors (18.0%). Most patients referred to the phase I unit had signed informed consent and the rate was similar across age (92.7% in younger patients versus 90.6% in older patients; P = 0.266). The rate of screening failure was also similar across age (28.5% in younger patients versus 24.3% in older patients; P = 0.219). Finally, in older patients, univariate analyses showed that initial care received in the hospital having a phase I unit was statistically associated with first study drug administration (odds ratio 0.49, 90% confidence interval 0.27-0.88; P = 0.045). CONCLUSIONS: Older patients are underrepresented in early clinical trials with 17.7% of patients aged ≥70 years compared with the number of new cases of cancer in France (50%). However, when invited to participate, older patients were prone to sign informed consent.

Relapse remains the most common cause of treatment failure in patients receiving autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for follicular lymphoma (FL). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of adding radioimmunotherapy or rituximab (R) to BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, ara-c, melphalan) high-dose therapy for ASCT in patients with relapsed FL. Using the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry, we conducted a cohort comparison of BEAM (n=1973), Zevalin-BEAM (Z-BEAM) (n=207) and R-BEAM (n=179) and also a matched-cohort analysis of BEAM vs Z-BEAM including 282 and 154 patients, respectively. BEAM, Z-BEAM and R-BEAM groups were well balanced for age, time from diagnosis to ASCT and disease status at ASCT. The cumulative incidences of relapse (IR) at 2 years were 34, 34 and 32% for Z-BEAM, R-BEAM and BEAM, respectively. By multivariate analysis, there were no significant differences with Z-BEAM or R-BEAM compared with BEAM for IR, non-relapse mortality, event-free survival or overall survival. With the caveat that the limitations of registry analyses have to be taken into account, this study does not support adding radioimmunotherapy or R to BEAM in ASCT for relapsed FL. However, we cannot rule out the existence a particular subset of patients who could benefit from Z-BEAM conditioning that cannot be identified in our series, and this should be tested in a randomized trial.

TP53 deletion or mutation is frequent in B-cell malignancies and is associated with a low response rate. We describe here the p53 landscape in B-cell malignancies, from B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia to Plasma Cell Leukemia, by analyzing incidence of gain or loss of function of actors both upstream and within the p53 pathway, namely MYC, RAS, ARF, MDM2, ATM and TP53. Abnormalities are not equally distributed and their incidence is highly variable among malignancies. Deletion and mutation, usually associated, of ATM or TP53 are frequent in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma and Mantle Cell Lymphoma. MYC gain, absent in post-GC malignancies, is frequent in B-Prolymphocytic-Leukemia, Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Leukemias. RAS mutations are rare except in MM and PCL. Multiple Factorial Analysis notes that MYC deregulation is closely related to TP53 status. Moreover, MYC gain, TP53 deletion and RAS mutations are inversely correlated with survival. Based on this landscape, we further propose targeted therapeutic approaches for the different B-cell malignancies.

Background: Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL), initially described in 1997 in the oral cavity of HIV positive patients, is now recognized as a distinct aggressive and rare entity of diffuse large B-cells lymphoma by the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Since the original description, others cases have been reported. However, these are largely derived from case reports or small series limiting any definitive conclusions on clinical characteristics and outcome. Patients and methods: The clinical, biological, pathological features and outcome of a cohort including 135 patients with PBL, from LYSA centers in France and Belgium, were reported and analyzed. Results: The median age was 58 years, with a male predominance. The cohort was divided into 56 HIV-positive patients, 17 post-transplant patients and 62 HIV-negative/non-transplanted patients. Within HIV-negative/non-transplanted, a relative immunosuppression was found in most cases (systemic inflammatory disease, history of cancer, increased age associated with weakened immune system). We have also described a new subtype, PBL arising in a chronic localized inflammatory site, without any sign of immunosuppression. At presentation, 19% of patients showed oral involvement. Immunophenotype showed CD138 positivity in 88% of cases and CD20 negativity in 90% of cases. Chemotherapy was administered to 80% of patients, with a complete response (CR) rate of 55%. The median overall survival (OS) was 32 months. In univariate analysis, HIV positive status showed better OS when compared with HIV negative status. In multivariate analysis, International Prognostic Index score, chemotherapy and CR were associated with survival benefit. Conclusion(s): This cohort, the largest reported to date, increases the spectrum of knowledge on PBL, rarely described. However, specific guidelines to clarify treatment are lacking, and may improve the poor prognosis of this rare disease.

The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) consensus conference on mature B-cell lymphomas and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) was held on 20 June 2015 in Lugano, Switzerland, and included a multidisciplinary panel of 25 leading experts. The aim of the conference was to develop recommendations on critical subjects difficult to consider in detail in the ESMO Clinical Practice Guidelines. The following areas were identified: (i) the elderly patient, (ii) prognostic factors suitable for clinical use and (iii) the 'ultra-high-risk' group. Before the conference, the expert panel was divided into three working groups; each group focused on one of these areas in order to address four clinically relevant questions relating to that topic. All relevant scientific literature, as identified by the experts, was reviewed in advance. During the consensus conference, each working group developed recommendations to address each of the four questions assigned to their group. These recommendations were then presented to the entire panel and a consensus was reached. This manuscript presents recommendations dedicated to the second area of interest, i.e. prognostic factors suitable for clinical use. The four topics [i.e. interim positron emission tomography (PET), TP53 mutations, cell of origin (COO) and minimal residual disease (MRD)] were primarily chosen because of the bulk of available data together with the lack of clear guidance regarding their use in clinical practice and within clinical trials. Results, including a summary of evidence supporting each recommendation, are detailed in this manuscript. The panel acknowledged that detection of TP53 inactivation by deletion or mutation in CLL should be implemented in clinical practice (level of evidence I, strength of recommendation A). Due to their potentially high prognostic value, at least in some lymphoma entities, implementation of interim PET, COO and MRD was highly recommended in the context of clinical trials. All expert panel members approved this final article.

We retrospectively evaluated the role of rituximab (R) in maintenance treatment after autologous stem cell transplantation performed in patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma. We compared the outcome of 67 follicular lymphoma (FL) patients according to the use of rituximab maintenance (RM) or not. All patients received rituximab plus chemotherapy before autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT). Patients received median of two lines of prior therapy. The RM schedule was one injection of rituximab every 3 months for 2 years. Median follow-up is 4.6 years. The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) after ASCT was 86 % with RM vs. 46 % without (p = 0.0045). Median is not reached in the RM arm vs. 31 months in non-RM arm. The 3-year OS was 96 % with RM vs. 78 % without (p = 0.059). The present monocentric study shows that 2 years of RM after ASCT significantly increases response duration for non-naive rituximab relapsed FL patients compared with observation.

Poly-chemotherapy plus rituximab followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) is standard care for untreated young patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Despite this intensive treatment, transplant patients remain highly susceptible to relapse over time. The French SFGM-TC performed a national survey on reduced-intensity conditioning allogeneic stem cell transplantation (RIC-allo-SCT) for fit relapsed/refractory patients who failed after auto-SCT (n=106). Median times of relapse after auto-SCT, and from auto-SCT to RIC-allo-SCT were 28 months and 3.6 years, respectively. Sixty per cent of patients received at least three lines of treatment before RIC-allo-SCT. Conditioning regimens for RIC-allo-SCT were heterogeneous. Twenty patients experienced grade III/IV aGvHD, extensive cGvHD was reported in 28 cases. Median follow-up after RIC-allo-SCT was 45 months. Median PFS after RIC-allo-SCT was 30.1 months and median overall survival was 62 months. Treatment-related mortality (TRM) at 1 year and 3 years were estimated at 28% and 32%, respectively. A total of 52 patients died; major causes of death were related to toxicity (n=34) and MCL (n=11). Patients in good response before RIC-allo-SCT experienced a better PFS and OS. Our work highlights the need for new RIC-allo-SCT MCL-tailored approaches to reduce TRM, and early and late relapse.

BACKGROUND: Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are rare and heterogeneous diseases with dismal outcome when treated with chemotherapy alone. Because allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can cure relapse/refractory patients, we hypothesized that upfront allo-SCT may provide a better outcome. Therefore, all patients that presented with advanced PTCL in our institution at diagnosis were scheduled to undergo upfront allo-SCT after induction chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The aim of the present work was to assess the feasibility and toxicity of upfront allo-SCT. From 2004 to 2012, 49 newly diagnosed PTCL patients were scheduled to receive upfront allo-SCT. A human leukocyte antigen-matched donor was found for 42 patients: related to the patient in 15 cases, unrelated in 20 cases, and suitable cord blood units were used in 7 cases. RESULTS: After induction chemotherapy, 17 patients reached complete remission and 29 (60%) proceeded to upfront allo-SCT. For all patients, the 1 and 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 59% [95% confidence interval (CI) 47-75] and 55% (95% CI 43-71), respectively. The most frequent reason we did not proceed to allo-SCT was disease progression or insufficient response after induction. For transplanted patients, the 1- and 2-year OS were 76% (95% CI 62-93) and 72.5% (95% CI 58-91), respectively. Toxicity-related mortality (TRM) 1 year after allo-SCT was only 8.2% (95% CI 0-18.5). The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of patients who did not proceed to allo-SCT (n = 20) was below 30%. The disease status at the time of transplantation was a strong predictive marker for both PFS and OS in transplant patients. CONCLUSIONS: Upfront allo-SCT in PTCLs is feasible with low TRM, and it provides long-term disease control. However, one-third of patients remain chemo-refractory and, thus, new therapeutic approaches are warranted. The role of upfront allo-SCT compared with other therapeutic approaches in PTCLs requires investigation in randomized studies.

BACKGROUND: Patients with advanced B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) refractory to initial chemotherapy or relapsing after autologous stem-cell transplantation have a poor prognosis. Allogeneic stem-cell transplantation after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen can be a therapeutic option. However, the high incidence of relapse remains a challenging issue. We speculated that the incorporation of (90)Y-Ibritumomab tiuxetan into a fludarabine-based RIC regimen would improve the lymphoma control without overwhelming toxicity. Our aim was to evaluate the safety of (90)Y-Ibritumomab tiuxetan in association with such a regimen in a prospective multicenter phase II trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-one patients with advanced lymphoma from five distinct institutions were included between February 2008 and October 2010. Thirty patients in complete or partial response after failure of a median of 3 (range, 2-4) previous chemotherapy regimens including autologous transplant in 29 were evaluable for nonrelapse mortality (NRM) at day 100 post-transplant that was the primary end point. RESULTS: With a median follow-up of 32 months (range, 29-60 months), the 2-year event-free and overall survivals of the whole study group were both 80% [95 confidence interval (CI) 60.8% to 90.5%). The 100-day and 2-year post-transplant cumulative incidences of NRM were 3.3% (95% CI 0.2% to 14.9%) and 13.3% (95% CI 5.4% to 33.2%), respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 6.7% (95% CI 1.7% to 25.4%). The cumulative incidences of grade II-IV and extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease were 27% and 14%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: For chemosensitive advanced high-risk B-cell lymphoma, the addition of (90)Y-Ibritumomab tiuxetan to a RIC regimen based on fludarabine, busulfan and antithymocyte globulin followed by allogeneic transplant is safe and highly effective. clinicaltrials.gov: NCT00607854.

The role of both autologous (autoSCT) and allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in the management of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remains to be clarified. We conducted a consensus project using the RAND-modified Delphi consensus procedure to provide guidance on how SCT should be used in MCL. With regard to autoSCT, there was consensus in support of: autoSCT is the standard first-line consolidation therapy; induction therapy should include high-dose cytarabine and Rituximab; complete or partial remission should be achieved before autoSCT; Rituximab maintenance following autoSCT is not indicated; and omission of autoSCT in 'low-risk' patients is not indicated. No consensus could be reached regarding: autoSCT in the treatment of relapsed disease following non-transplant therapy; the value of positron emission tomography scanning and minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring; in vivo purging with Rituximab; total body irradiation conditioning for autoSCT; and preemptive Rituximab after autoSCT. For alloSCT, consensus was reached in support of: alloSCT should be considered for patients relapsing after autoSCT; reduced intensity conditioning regimens should be used; allogeneic immunotherapy should be used for MRD eradication after alloSCT; and there is a lack of prognostic criteria to guide the use of alloSCT as first-line consolidation. No consensus was reached regarding the role of alloSCT for relapsed disease following non-transplant therapy.
