ABSTRACT
Objective: To further elucidate the clinical efficacy and safety of a combination regimen based on the BTK inhibitor zebutanil bridging CD19 Chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells) in the treatment of relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (r/r DLBCL) . Methods: Twenty-one patients with high-risk r/r DLBCL were treated with a zanubrutinib-based regimen bridging CAR-T between June 2020 and June 2023 at the Department of Hematology, Tongji Hospital, Tongji University and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University, and the efficacy and safety were retrospectively analyzed. Results: All 21 patients were enrolled, and the median age was 57 years (range: 38-76). Fourteen patients (66.7%) had an eastern cooperative oncology group performance status score (ECOG score) of ≥2. Eighteen patients (85.7%) had an international prognostic index (IPI) score of ≥3. Three patients (14.3%) had an IPI score of 2 but had extranodal infiltration. Fourteen patients (66.7%) had double-expression of DLBCL and seven (33.3%) had TP53 mutations. With a median follow-up of 24.8 (95% CI 17.0-31.6) months, the objective response rate was 81.0%, and 11 patients (52.4%) achieved complete remission. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.8 months, and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. The 1-year PFS rate was 52.4% (95% CI 29.8% -74.3%), and the 1-year OS rate was 80.1% (95% CI 58.1% -94.6%). Moreover, 18 patients (85.7%) had grade 1-2 cytokine-release syndrome, and two patients (9.5%) had grade 1 immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. Conclusion: Zanubrutinib-based combination bridging regimen of CAR-T therapy for r/r DLBCL has high efficacy and demonstrated a good safety profile.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of ixazomib-based therapy in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) .Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the efficacy and adverse reactions of 53 RRMM patients treated with a combined regimen containing ixazomib in the Hematology Department of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from July 8, 2018 to November 30, 2020. Among them, 6 patients received ID regimen (ixazomib + dexamethasone) , 30 patients received ID regimen + immunomodulator, and 17 patients received ID regimen + other chemotherapy drugs.Results:Fifty-three patients with RRMM received ixazomib-based therapy. The median previous treatment line was 3, the median treatment course was 6 (2-30) , and the median follow-up time was 21 months (2-32 months) . The overall response rate (ORR) was 54.7% (29/53) after 2 courses of treatment. Among them, 26.4% (14/53) had very good partial response (VGPR) and 28.3% (15/53) had partial response (PR) . The ORR of the ID regimen group, ID regimen + immunomodulator group and ID regimen + other chemotherapy group were 83.3% (5/6) , 56.7% (17/30) and 41.2% (7/17) respectively, with no statistically significant difference among the three groups ( P=0.208) . The median time to progression (TTP) of 53 patients was 8 months (1-24 months) . The most frequent adverse events of ixazomib treatment were gastrointestinal reactions such as nausea, vomit and diarrhea, with an incidence of 37.7% (20/53) , and the incidence of grade 3-4 was 5.7% (3/53) . The most common hematological adverse events were thrombocytopenia (15.1%, 8/53) , neutropenia (11.3%, 6/53) and anemia (9.4%, 5/53) . Grade 1-2 peripheral neurotoxicity occurred in only 7.5% (4/53) of patients. Conclusion:Ixazomib has good efficacy and safety for the patients with RRMM in the real world.
ABSTRACT
Factors associated with complete and durable remissions after anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell immunotherapy for relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (r/r NHL) have not been well characterized. In this study, we found that the different sites of extranodal involvement may affect response, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with r/r NHL treated with anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. In a cohort of 32 treated patients, 12 (37.5%) and 8 (25%) patients exhibited soft tissue lymphoma and bone marrow (BM) infiltrations, respectively, and 13 (41%) patients exhibited infiltration at other sites. The factors that may affect prognosis were identified through multivariable analysis. As an independent risk factor, soft tissue infiltration was the only factor significantly correlated with adverse prognosis (P < 0.05), whereas other factors did not reach statistical significance. Furthermore, the site of extranodal tumor infiltration significantly and negatively affected OS and PFS in patients with r/r NHL treated with anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy. PFS and OS in patients with BM involvement were not significantly different from those of patients with lymph node involvement alone. Thus, anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy may improve the prognosis of patients with BM infiltration.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a distinct histological type of B-cell lymphoma with a poor prognosis. Several agents, such as proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and inhibitors of B cell lymphoma-2 and Bruton's tyrosine kinase have shown efficacy for relapsed or refractory (r/r) MCL but often have short-term responses. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has emerged as a novel treatment modality for r/r non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. However, long-term safety and tolerability associated with CAR T-cell therapy are not defined well, especially in MCL. In this report, we described a 70-year-old patient with r/r MCL with 48-month duration of follow-up who achieved long-term remission after CAR T-cell therapy. CAR T-cell-related toxicities were also mild and tolerated well even in this elderly patient. This report suggested that CAR T-cell therapy is a promising treatment modality for patients with MCL, who are generally elderly and have comorbid conditions.
