RESUMO
AIM: Idelalisib (IDELA) treatment is associated with diarrhea/colitis (incidence of â¼15% grade ≥3). We performed a retrospective analysis of gastrointestinal biopsies from 29 patients treated with IDELA across nine clinical trials. METHODS: A central core laboratory performed histopathologic review, immunohistochemistry, and droplet digital PCR viral studies. These results were correlated with tissue immune profiling data and morphologic features per modified Geboes score. RESULTS: Out of 29 eligible patients with abdominal pain or diarrhea, 24 (82.8%) had reported adverse event terms of diarrhea and/or colitis. Infectious pathogens were detected in 9/29 samples. Most biopsies presented with mixed/inflammatory infiltrates and contained increased numbers of FOXP3+ cells versus normal controls. CONCLUSION: This study revealed evidence of T-cell dysregulation and a substantial infectious component in association with IDELA-related diarrhea/colitis.
