RESUMEN
Between 2011 and 2012, a phase II trial evaluated the use of the RiBVD (Rituximab, Bendamustine, Velcade and Dexamethasone) combination as first-line treatment for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients aged over 65. We have now re-examined the classic prognostic factors, adding an assessment of the mutation status of TP53. Patients (n=74; median age 73 years) were treated with the RiBVD combination. Median Progression Free Survival (mPFS) was 79 months, and median Overall Survival (mOS) was 111 months. TP53 mutation status was available for 54/74 (73%) patients. TP53 mutations (TP53mt) were found in 12 patients (22.2%). In multivariate analysis, among the prognostic factors (PF) evaluated, only TP53mt and an albumin level below 3.6 g/dL (Alb<3.6 g/dL) were independently associated with a shorter mPFS. A hazard ratio (HR) of 3.16 (1.3-9.9, p=0.014) was obtained for TP53mt versus TP53wt, and 3.6 (1.39-9.5, p=0.009) for Alb<3.6 g/dL vs Alb≥3.6 g/dL. In terms of mOS, multivariate analysis identified three PFs: TP53mt (HR: 5.9 (1.77-19.5, p=0.004)), Alb<3.6 g/dL (HR: 5.2 (1.46-18.5, p=0.011)), and ECOG=2 (HR: 3.7 (1.31-10.6, p=0.014)). Finally, a score combining TP53 status and albumin level distinguished three populations based on the presence of 0, 1, or 2 PF. For these populations, mPFS was 7.8 years, 28 months and 2.5 months, respectively. Our prolonged follow-up confirmed the efficacy of the RiBVD regimen, comparing it favorably to other regimens. TP53mt and hypoalbuminemia emerge as strong PF that can be easily integrated into prognostic scores for older adult patients with MCL.
RESUMEN
Bone marrow biopsies are largely used for the diagnosis and prognostic of various hematological diseases. Complications are rare but can be as serious as hemorrhage. However, little is known about management of patients deemed at high hemorrhagic risk like thrombocytopenic patients or patients receiving antithrombotic drugs. The aim of the study was to describe the management of patients regarding their laboratory profile and antithrombotic treatment prior to bone marrow biopsy and the short-term outcomes, notably hemorrhage. We conducted a retrospective observational study between February 2007 and March 2018. A standardized form was used to collect data from patients' records, blood tests results, management of antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatment before biopsy and complications including bleeding and thromboembolic events until 3 months after the biopsy. A total of 524 bone marrow biopsies were performed. No major bleeding events were reported. The incidence of clinically relevant non-major bleeding was 0.19% (CI 95% 0.00-1.20) and was linked to low platelets counts (p = 0.002) and not to abnormal coagulation profile or antithrombotic therapy, whether or not a bridging therapy has been used. Anticoagulants were temporarily stopped before biopsy in most cases without subsequent thrombotic complications. Our data suggest that thrombocytopenic patients have a non-negligible bleeding risk. Coagulation profiling seems irrelevant. We propose an algorithm to assist the management of those patients, notably when receiving antithrombotic drugs.

INTRODUCTION: Considering the notable advances made in the treatment of lymphoma, assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of lymphoma patients has become a critical aspect to consider both in clinical research and routine practice. However, there is paucity of information about lymphoma specific HRQoL profile at diagnosis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: HRQoL at diagnosis was assessed for 3922 adult patients with newly diagnosed high-grade (HG) (n = 1994), low-grade (LG) (n = 1053) non-Hodgkin (NHL) and Hodgkin (HL) (n = 875) lymphomas included in REal world dAta in LYmphoma and Survival in Adults (REALYSA, NCT03869619), a prospective non-interventional multicentric cohort in France. Disease-specific HRQoL aspects were assessed with three validated EORTC questionnaires, namely, the QLQ-NHL-HG29, the QLQ-NHL-LG20 and the QLQ-HL27, for patients with NHL-HG, NHL-LG and HL, respectively. RESULTS: We confirmed the high-level of completion of these questionnaires in REALYSA cohort, ranging from 84 % for QLQ-HG29 to 88 % for QLQ-HL27. The proportion of patients with impaired global health status was as follows: T-cell NHL, 67 %; diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL), 62 %; Burkitt, 61 %; HL, 53 %; marginal zone, 49 %; mantle cell, 48 %; follicular, 47 %. Multivariable regression analyses for DLBCL, follicular and HL showed that gender, performance status and B symptoms were independently associated with all HRQoL dimensions. However, a variable effect of age and stage were observed among these three subtypes. CONCLUSIONS: A comprehensive analysis was made describing the HRQoL profile of newly diagnosed patients with different types of lymphomas. Our data may help to enhance the interpretation of HRQoL results in future studies using the recently validated EORTC lymphoma specific questionnaires.

ABSTRACT: Real-world data (RWD) are essential to complement clinical trial (CT) data, but major challenges remain, such as data quality. REal world dAta in LYmphoma and Survival in Adults (REALYSA) is a prospective noninterventional multicentric cohort started in 2018 that included patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma in France. Herein is a proof-of-concept analysis on patients with first-line diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) to (1) evaluate the capacity of the cohort to provide robust data through a multistep validation process; (2) assess the consistency of the results; and (3) conduct an exploratory transportability assessment of 2 recent phase 3 CTs (POLARIX and SENIOR). The analysis population comprised 645 patients with DLBCL included before 31 March 2021 who received immunochemotherapy and for whom 3589 queries were generated, resulting in high data completeness (<4% missing data). Median age was 66 years, with mostly advanced-stage disease and high international prognostic index (IPI) score. Treatments were mostly rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP 75%) and reduced dose R-CHOP (13%). Estimated 1-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival rates were 77.9% and 90.0%, respectively (median follow-up, 9.9 months). Regarding transportability, when applying the CT's main inclusion criteria (age, performance status, and IPI), outcomes seemed comparable between patients in REALYSA and standard arms of POLARIX (1-year progression-free survival 79.8% vs 79.8%) and SENIOR (1-year EFS, 64.5% vs 60.0%). With its rigorous data validation process, REALYSA provides high-quality RWD, thus constituting a platform for numerous scientific purposes. The REALYSA study was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03869619.

Patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) have a poor prognosis. Bendamustine (B) and brentuximab-vedotin (Bv) have shown interesting results in this setting. However, little information is available about their efficacy in combination. This multicenter and retrospective study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of BBv in patients with noncutaneous R/R PTCL among 21 LYSA centers in France and Belgium. The primary objective was the overall response rate. A total of 82 patients with R/R PTCL were included. The best overall response rate (ORR) was 68%, with 49% of patients in complete response (CR). In multivariable analysis, only the disease status after the last regimen (relapse vs refractory) was associated with the response with an ORR of 83% vs 57%. Median duration of response was 15.4 months for patients in CR. With a median follow-up of 22 months, the median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 8.3 and 26.3 months respectively. Moreover, patients in CR, who underwent an allogeneic transplant, had a better outcome than patients who did not with a median PFS and OS of 19.3 vs 4.8 months and not reached vs 12.4 months, respectively. Fifty-nine percent of patients experienced grade 3/4 adverse events that were mainly hematologic. BBv is highly active in patients with R/R PTCL and should be considered as a one of the best options of immunochemotherapy salvage combination in this setting and particularly as a bridge to allogeneic transplant for eligible patients.

PURPOSE OF THE REPORT: We aimed to evaluate the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in predicting patient outcome following chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cells infusion in aggressive B-cell lymphoma. METHODS: 18F-FDG PET/CT data before leukapheresis, before CAR T-cell infusion and 1 month (M1) after CAR T-cell infusion, from 72 patients were retrospectively analyzed. SUVmax, total lesion glycolysis (TLG), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and parameters describing tumor kinetics were calculated for each 18F-FDG PET/CT performed. The aim was to evaluate the prognostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT metabolic parameters for predicting progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) following CAR T-cell therapy. RESULTS: Regarding PFS, ∆MTVpre-CAR and ∆TLGpre-CAR were found to be more discriminating compared with metabolic parameters at preinfusion. Median PFS in patients with a ∆MTVpre-CAR of less than 300% was 6.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.8 months to not reached) compared with 2.8 months (95% CI, 0.9-3.0 months) for those with a value of 300% or greater (P = 0.004). Likewise, median PFS in patients with ∆TLGpre-CAR of less than 420% was 6.8 months (95% CI, 2.8 months to not reached) compared with 2.7 months (95% CI, 1.3-3.0 months) for those with a value of 420% or greater (P = 0.0148). Regarding OS, metabolic parameters at M1 were strongly associated with subsequent outcome. SUVmax at M1 with a cutoff value of 14 was the most predictive parameter in multivariate analysis, outweighing other clinicobiological variables (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Disease metabolic volume kinetics before infusion of CAR T cells seems to be superior to initial tumor bulk itself for predicting PFS. For OS, SUVmax at M1 might adequately segregate patients with different prognosis.
