RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: BV is an antibody-drug conjugate directed against CD30 and is safe and effective in relapsed/refractory (R/R) Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Most patients with r/r cHL respond well to BV monotherapy; however, the large of majority of them eventually progress on this drug, and BV-resistant HL remains an unmet need. Preclinical data suggest that BV resistance is mediated at least in part by increased drug efflux associated with increased expression of multidrug resistance pump 1 (MDR1) while CD30 expression appears to be preserved in BV resistant cell lines and patient samples. We conducted a phase 1 study evaluating BV + cyclosporine (CsA) in BV-refractory HL and previous reported results in the dose finding cohort. Here we report the final results from the phase 1 study. METHODS: This was a phase I trial of BV + CsA in patients with r/r HL with dose-finding and dose escalation cohorts. Eligibility criteria included age ≥ 18 years with r/r HL after at least 1 prior line of therapy. Treatment consisted of 1.8 mg/kg BV intravenously on day 1 and CsA 5 to 7.5 mg/kg PO twice daily on days 1 to 5; cycles were 21 days long. Patients in the expansion cohort had to have cHL refractory to BV. The primary objectives were to evaluate safety and tolerability and to determine MTD of BV + CsA; the secondary objective was to determine efficacy of this combination. RESULTS: 29 patients were enrolled onto the study, 14 in the dose finding cohort and 15 in the dose expansion BV refractory cohort. Study accrual was terminated before target accrual due to unacceptable toxicity. 62% of patients were male, and the median age was 36 years (range: 20-69). The median number of prior therapies was 5 (range: 3-12); all patients had prior BV, and 93% had PD-1 directed therapy, and 93% were BV-refractory. Of 22 evaluable patients, CR rate was 27% and ORR 64%; median DOR 4.9 months. Treatment-related deaths occurred in 3 patients, and another patient died during cycle 1 due to cardiac arrest deemed unlikely related to be protocol therapy. All grade GI toxicity was seen in 90% of patients (G3+ in 24%); other common adverse events were nausea (90%), hypertension (90%), nausea (90%), hypertension (90%), anemia (86%), fatigue (76%), neutropenia (76%), leukopenia (76%), hypomagnesemia (76%), anorexia (66%), and hyponatremia (66%). DISCUSSION: BV + CsA demonstrated modest activity in BV-refractory r/r HL; however, toxicity is substantial.
RESUMO
Patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) transformed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) from indolent B-cell lymphomas, including Richter transformation (RT), have a poor prognosis. PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies produce modest objective and complete response rates (ORR and CRR) in B-NHL as monotherapy but may synergize with immunogenic chemotherapies like gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GemOx). Thus, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab plus rituximab and GemOx (R-GemOx+Atezo) in R/R transformed DLBCL, including RT. We conducted a phase I trial including patients with transformed DLBCL after ≥1 prior therapy. Patients received up to 4 cycles of R-GemOx-+Atezo. Patients in CR could then proceed to Ratezo maintenance until progression. A safety lead-in with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) evaluation was enrolled to confirm the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), followed by 2 expansion cohorts: one for transformed follicular lymphoma (FL) and another for non-FL transformed DLBCL, including RT. Twenty-seven patients were enrolled. One of the 6 safety lead-in patients had a DLT attributed to atezolizumab, a grade 4 Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS). The most common grade ≥3 events were neutropenia (18.5%), lymphopenia (18.5%), and thrombocytopenia (14.8%). The overall and complete response rates (ORR and CRR) were 59% and 33%, respectively. The ORR and CRR in transformed FL were 79% and 43%, and 38% and 23% in transformed non-FL, respectively. The median PFS and OS of the total population were 4.2 and 7.7 months, respectively. R-GemOx+Atezo was well tolerated and demonstrated promising preliminary efficacy in patients with R/R transformed DLBCL.
RESUMO
CD123 "expression" is common in hematological malignancies, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Flotetuzumab is a novel, investigational CD3/CD123 DART®. We conducted a phase 1 study evaluating safety and efficacy of flotetuzumab in relapsed/refractory ALL (Cohort A) and other advanced CD123-positive hematological malignancies (excluding myeloid malignancies) (cohort B). Thirteen patients (9 in Cohort A and 4 in Cohort B) were treated at dose level 1 (500 ng/kg/day) before early closure due to discontinuation of drug development by sponsor. Two dose limiting toxicities (Grade 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia) occurred in one patient in Cohort B. Cytokine release syndrome occurred in most patients (85%), all being grade ≤2. Responses only occurred in Cohort B, with a partial response in one patient with Hodgkin's lymphoma and morphological complete remission in the bone marrow in one patient with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm. In conclusion, flotetuzumab had a manageable safety profile in advanced CD123-positive hematological malignancies.

Outcomes after programmed death-1 (PD-1) blockade in B-cell lymphomas are disappointing with few durable responses. Histone deacetylase inhibitors exhibit favorable immunomodulatory effects and demonstrate synergistic anti-tumor immune responses with anti-PD-1 therapy in preclinical models. We, therefore, developed a phase I study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of pembrolizumab with vorinostat in relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas. Patients were treated in a dose-escalation cohort using a Rolling 6 design followed by an expansion cohort at the recommended phase II dose (R2PD). Fifty-two patients were enrolled (32 Hodgkin and 20 non-Hodgkin lymphoma [NHL]). Here, we report safety data from the dose escalation cohort, and the toxicity and efficacy within NHL patients. Vorinostat was administered twice daily on days 1-5 and 8-12 (dose-level [DL]1: 100 mg; DL2: 200 mg) and pembrolizumab (200 mg) was administered on day 1 of each 3-week cycle. Of six patients treated at DL1, one had a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) (Stevens-Johnson syndrome [SJS]), and one of six had a DLT at DL2 (thromboembolism); therefore, DL2 was the RP2D. The patient developing SJS was treated with corticosteroids, infliximab, and cyclosporine but ultimately died of invasive fungal infection from the extensive immunosuppression used to treat the SJS. The most common adverse events were hypertension, diarrhea, and cytopenias. Of 20 NHL patients, nine had follicular lymphoma (FL) and 11 had diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Five DLBCL patients had primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL). The complete and overall response rates (CR and ORR) were 11% and 22% for FL and 45% and 55% for all DLBCL. Amongst DLBCL, the CR and ORR was 80% and 80% for PMBL and 17% and 33% for non-PMBL. In conclusion, pembrolizumab with vorinostat was tolerable and produced responses in relapsed/refractory B-cell NHL, with particularly notable efficacy in PMBL (clinicaltrials gov. Identifier: NCT03150329).

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between baseline skeletal muscle measurements, acute toxicity (immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome [ICANS], cytokine release syndrome), and treatment efficacy in patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy for B-lineage lymphoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Skeletal muscle measurements were obtained from automated CT measurements in 226 consecutive patients who received CAR T-cell therapy between 2015 and 2021. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to examine progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 1-year. Multivariable regression was used to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals, adjusted for covariates. RESULTS: The median age of the cohort was 63.1 years (range, 18.5-82.4 years), and most patients were male (66%) and had primary refractory disease (58%). Patients with abnormally low skeletal muscle at baseline were at greater risk of ICANS (HR, 1.74; 95% CI, 1.05-2.87) and had longer length of hospitalization (mean 27.7 vs 22.9 days; P<.05) compared with those with normal muscle mass. Abnormal skeletal muscle was independently associated with risk of disease progression (HR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.11-2.57) and worse survival (HR, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.49-4.00) at 1 year compared with normal skeletal muscle. Individuals who had abnormal skeletal muscle and high lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels at baseline had poor 1-year PFS (17%) and OS (12%) compared with those with normal skeletal muscle and LDH levels (72% and 82%, respectively; P<.001). Patients who had abnormal skeletal muscle and LDH levels had a 5-fold risk (HR, 5.34; 95% CI, 2.97-9.62) of disease progression and a 10-fold risk (HR, 9.73; 95% CI, 4.81-19.70) of death (reference: normal skeletal muscle, normal LDH), independent of prior lines of therapy, extent of residual disease at time of CAR T-cell therapy, functional status, or product. CONCLUSIONS: This information can be used for risk stratification prior to CAR T-cell therapy or to implement prehabilitation and nutritional optimization before lymphodepletion as well as thereafter. These efforts will be complementary to ongoing efforts toward sustained efficacy after CAR T-cell therapy.

The ZUMA-7 (Efficacy of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel Compared to Standard of Care Therapy in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma) study showed that axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) improved event-free survival (EFS) compared with standard of care (SOC) salvage chemoimmunotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant in primary refractory/early relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL); this led to its recent US Food and Drug Administration approval in this setting. We modeled a hypothetical cohort of US adults (mean age, 65 years) with primary refractory/early relapsed DLBCL by developing a Markov model (lifetime horizon) to model the cost-effectiveness of second-line axi-cel compared with SOC using a range of plausible long-term outcomes. EFS and OS were estimated from ZUMA-7. Outcome measures were reported in incremental cost-effectiveness ratios, with a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold of $150 000 per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY). Assuming a 5-year EFS of 35% with second-line axi-cel and 10% with SOC, axi-cel was cost-effective at a WTP of $150 000 per QALY ($93 547 per QALY). axi-cel was no longer cost-effective if its 5-year EFS was ≤26.4% or if it cost more than $972 061 at a WTP of $150 000. Second-line axi-cel was the cost-effective strategy in 73% of the 10 000 Monte Carlo iterations at a WTP of $150 000. If the absolute benefit in EFS is maintained over time, second-line axi-cel for aggressive relapsed/refractory DLBCL is cost-effective compared with SOC at a WTP of $150 000 per QALY. However, its cost-effectiveness is highly dependent on long-term outcomes. Routine use of second-line chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy would add significantly to health care expenditures in the United States (more than $1 billion each year), even when used in a high-risk subpopulation. Further reductions in the cost of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy are needed to be affordable in many regions of the world.

BACKGROUND: Anti-PD-1 directed therapy is safe and effective in patients with relapsed/refractory (r/r) cHL and is currently being studied in the frontline setting. There are currently little data regarding the safety and efficacy of PD-1 blockade after prior PD-L1 blockade with agents such as avelumab. METHODS: This is a retrospective case series evaluating r/r cHL patients treated with avelumab who subsequently received at least 1 dose of PD-1 blockade. Primary objective is efficacy as measured by overall response rate. Secondary objectives include duration of response and time to progression on PD-1 blockade as well as safety as evaluated by incidence and severity of immune-related adverse events (irAE) with PD-1 blockade. RESULTS: There were 7 patients treated with PD-1 blockade after avelumab, of whom 4 were re-treated. The median follow-up was 46.8 months. At the time of PD-1 blockade initiation median age was 36.6 years, all patients had advanced stage, 1 patient had B symptoms, and 4 patients had extranodal disease. Patients received median 7 prior lines of therapy including avelumab. Median duration on anti-PD-1 treatment was 15.9 months. A response was observed in 86% of patients with median duration of response of 26.4 months and median time to progression of 22.2 months. Only 1 patient experienced an irAE (grade 2 pneumonitis). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that PD-1 blockade after PD-L1 blockade in r/r cHL appears safe and may be effective with durable responses observed in a subset of patients.

In patients with treatment-naive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the POLARIX study (A Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of Polatuzumab Vedotin With Rituximab-Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, and Prednisone [R-CHP] Versus Rituximab-Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone [R-CHOP] in Participants With Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma) reported a 6.5% improvement in the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS), with no difference in overall survival (OS) or safety using polatuzumab vedotin, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (pola-R-CHP) compared with standard rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP). We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of pola-R-CHP for DLBCL. We modeled a hypothetical cohort of US adults (mean age, 65 years) with treatment-naive DLBCL by developing a Markov model (lifetime horizon) to model the cost-effectiveness of pola-R-CHP and R-CHOP using a range of plausible long-term outcomes. Progression rates and OS were estimated from POLARIX. Outcome measures were reported in incremental cost-effectiveness ratios, with a willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold of $150 000 per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY). Assuming a 5-year PFS of 69.6% with pola-R-CHP and 62.7% with R-CHOP, pola-R-CHP was cost-effective at a WTP of $150 000 (incremental cost-effectiveness ratio, $84 308/QALY). pola-R-CHP was no longer cost-effective if its 5-year PFS was 66.1% or lower. One-way sensitivity analysis revealed that pola-R-CHP is cost-effective up to a cost of $276 312 at a WTP of $150 000. pola-R-CHP was the cost-effective strategy in 56.6% of the 10 000 Monte Carlo iterations at a WTP of $150 000. If the absolute benefit in PFS is maintained over time, pola-R-CHP is cost-effective compared with R-CHOP at a WTP of $150 000/QALY. However, its cost-effectiveness is highly dependent on its long-term outcomes and costs of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy. Routine usage of pola-R-CHP would add significantly to health care expenditures. Price reductions or identification of subgroups that have maximal benefit would improve cost-effectiveness.

BACKGROUND: This was an open-label, phase 1b study assessing the safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy and pharmacokinetics of the combination of atezolizumab and obinutuzumab in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). There is a mechanistic rationale suggesting that this combination may enhance recruitment of both innate and adaptive immunity and be effective against CD20+ B-cell malignancies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study consisted of a safety evaluation stage and an expansion stage. Patients received obinutuzumab 1000 mg intravenously (IV) in cycle (C) 1, obinutuzumab plus atezolizumab 1200 mg IV for C2-8, and atezolizumab only from C9. Primary endpoints were to identify a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for atezolizumab, and safety and tolerability in the safety and expansion stages. RESULTS: A total of 49 patients were enrolled (FL, n = 26; DLBCL, n = 23), with a median of 2 prior lines of treatment. The RP2D for atezolizumab was 1200 mg IV every 3 weeks. Adverse events reported in ≥ 20% of patients were fatigue (15 patients [31%]), nausea (13 patients [27%]), cough, and diarrhea (10 patients [20%] each). Objective response rate was 54% in the FL cohort (complete response [CR] rate: 23%) and 17% in the DLBCL cohort (CR: 4%). Median progression-free survival was 9 months for FL and 3 months for DLBCL. Median overall survival was not estimable for FL and 9 months for DLBCL. CONCLUSION: The combination of obinutuzumab and atezolizumab was determined to be safe and tolerable, with no new toxicities observed.

CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CD19CAR) T-cell therapy has been successful in treating several B-cell lineage malignancies, including B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). This modality has not yet been extended to NHL manifesting in the central nervous system (CNS), primarily as a result of concerns for potential toxicity. CD19CAR T cells administered IV are detectable in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), suggesting that chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells can migrate from the periphery into the CNS, where they can potentially mediate antilymphoma activity. Here, we report the outcome of a subset of patients with primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL; n = 5) who were treated with CD19CAR T cells in our ongoing phase 1 clinical trial. All patients developed grade ≥ 1 cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity post-CAR T-cell infusion; toxicities were reversible and tolerable, and there were no treatment-related deaths. At initial disease response, 3 of 5 patients (60%; 90% confidence interval, 19-92%) seemed to achieve complete remission, as indicated by resolution of enhancing brain lesions; the remaining 2 patients had stable disease. Although the study cohort was small, we demonstrate that using CD19CAR T cells to treat PCNSL can be safe and feasible. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02153580.

BACKGROUND: Mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL) is sensitive to radiotherapy, and the CD20 antigen is relatively highly expressed in MCL. Therefore, radioimmunotherapy using radiolabeled anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies has the potential to treat MCL. The objective of this study was to investigate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and safety of tositumomab (TST) and iodine-131 tositumomab (I-131 TST) followed by 6 cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) in patients with previously untreated MCL (ClinicalTrials.govNCT00022945). PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this phase 2 open-label study, patients received dosimetric (day 0: 450 mg TST, then 35 mg I-131 TST [5 mCi]) and therapeutic (between days 7 and 14: 450 mg TST, then an individualized dose of I-131 TST [65-75 cGy]) TST/I-131 TST, with CHOP treatment commencing approximately 13 weeks after the therapeutic dose. The primary end point was the MCL response rate to treatment; secondary end points included confirmed complete response rate and total body residence time. RESULTS: Twenty-six patients were enrolled, and 25 were included in the intent-to-treat population. The overall unconfirmed response rate was 84%, and the confirmed complete response rate was 44%. The median progression free-survival was 27.6 months. The median total body residence time was 94.5 hours. No new or unexpected safety signals were identified. CONCLUSION: Patients with previously untreated MCL who received radioimmunotherapy with TST/I-131 TST followed by CHOP had a high response rate and a long duration of response, indicating that radioimmunotherapy is a therapeutic option in this patient population.

A negative interim positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (PET/CT) after 1 to 3 cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) in patients with newly diagnosed, nonbulky stage I or II Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) predicts a low relapse rate. This phase 2 trial was designed to determine if a population of patients with early-stage disease can be treated with short-course ABVD without radiation therapy (RT) on the basis of a negative interim PET/CT, thereby limiting the risks of treatment. Between 15 May 2010 and 21 February 2013, 164 previously untreated patients with nonbulky stage I/II HL were enrolled, and 149 were included in the final analysis. Patients received 2 cycles of ABVD followed by PET. Deauville scores 1 to 3 were negative (≤ liver uptake) based on central review. PET- patients received 2 more cycles of ABVD, and PET+ patients received 2 cycles of dose-intense bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (escalated BEACOPP) plus 3060-cGy involved-field RT. The primary objective was to determine 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) for the PET- group. One hundred thirty-five patients (91%) were interim PET-, and 14 patients (9%) were PET+ With median follow-up time of 3.8 years, the estimated 3-year PFS was 91% for the PET- group and 66% for the PET+ group (hazard ratio, 3.84; 95% confidence interval, 1.50-9.84; P = .011). There was 1 death as a result of suicide. Four cycles of ABVD resulted in durable remissions for a majority of patients with early-stage nonbulky HL and a negative interim PET. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01132807.

BACKGROUND: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive and incurable lymphoma. Standard of care for younger patients with MCL is induction chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-HCT). Rituximab maintenance after auto-HCT has been shown to improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in MCL. Bortezomib maintenance therapy has also been shown to be tolerable and feasible in this setting. However, the combination of bortezomib and rituximab as maintenance therapy post-auto-HCT has not been studied. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter, phase II trial of bortezomib given in combination with rituximab as maintenance in MCL patients after consolidative auto-HCT. Enrolled patients (n = 23) received bortezomib 1.3 mg/m2 subcutaneously weekly for 4 weeks every 3 months (up to 24 months) and rituximab 375 mg/m2 intravenously weekly for 4 weeks every 6 months (up to 24 months) for a total duration of 2 years. The primary study endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS: With a median follow-up of 35.9 months, the 2-year DFS probability was 90.2% (95% CI 66-97), and 2-year OS was 94.7% (95% CI 68-99). The most frequent grade 3/4 toxic events were neutropenia (in 74% of patients) and lymphopenia (in 35%). The incidence of peripheral neuropathy was 48% for grade 1, 9% for grade 2, and 0% for grade 3/4. We also examined the role of quantitative cyclin D1 (CCND1) mRNA in monitoring minimal residual disease. CONCLUSION: Combined bortezomib and rituximab as maintenance therapy in MCL patients following auto-HCT is an active and well-tolerated regimen. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT01267812 , registered Dec 29, 2010.

Based on promising pilot data a phase II tandem autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) trial for relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) was performed in the US intergroup setting to determine if long-term progression-free survival (PFS) could be improved. Patients were enrolled after salvage therapy and stem cell collection. Sensitivity to salvage was defined by 1999 Standardized Response Criteria and did not include fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography. Cycle 1 consisted of melphalan 150 mg/m2 with half of the stem cells. For stable disease or better, patients received cycle 2 consisting of single doses of etoposide 60 mg/kg and cyclophosphamide 100 mg/kg and either total body radiation 12 Gy in 8 fractions over 4 days or BCNU 150 mg/m2/day for 3 days with the remaining stem cells. Of 98 enrolled patients, 89 were eligible and treated: 82 completed both cycles of AHSCT, 47 (53%) had primary refractory HL, and 72 (81%) were resistant to salvage therapy. There were no treatment-related deaths in the first year after AHSCT. With a median follow-up of 6.2 years (range, 2 to 7.7) for eligible patients who remained alive, the 2-year and 5-year PFS were 63% (95% CI, 52% to 72%) and 55% (95% CI, 44% to 64%) respectively; the 2-year and 5-year overall survival were 91% (95% CI, 83% to 95%) and 84% (95% CI, 74% to 90%), respectively. Univariate Cox regression analysis showed Zubrod performance status and lactate dehydrogenase levels > 1 times upper limit of normal at the time of enrollment were significantly associated with PFS. The observed 5-year PFS of 55% suggests the tandem approach appears to be effective in treating HL patients demonstrated to have poor prognosis in prior single AHSCT trials.

Loss of major histocompatibility Class II expression (MHCII) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) correlates with decreased survival. MHCII transcription is in part regulated by histone acetylation. We tested the hypothesis that combination of histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) with standard chemotherapy would improve outcomes in DLBCL in part through increased MHCII expression. S0806 was a single arm phase I/II trial of vorinostat given at 400 mg po daily on days 1-9 (subsequently amended to days 1-5 due to toxicity), combined with R-CHOP given on day 3 of a 21-day cycle for 8 cycles, with primary phase II endpoint of 2-year progression free survival (PFS). With 72 evaluable patients, at median follow up of 3 years, 2-year PFS estimate was 73%, and OS estimate was 86%. Considering that the regimen fell short of predefined efficacy improvement and was associated with high rates of febrile neutropenia (38%) and sepsis (19%), it cannot be recommended for general use. Consistent with our hypothesis, patients with low MCHII expression on S0806 had numerically superior outcomes compared to those from trial S0433 which did not use an HDACI, but the difference was not statistically significant. Current studies are focused on finding biomarkers of response to HDACI.

High-dose therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) can improve outcomes for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) but is associated with a high incidence of relapse. A retrospective study of 191 MCL patients who underwent ASCT at City of Hope was performed to examine prognostic factors for outcomes after ASCT. For all patients the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 71% (95% confidence interval [CI], 63% to 77%) and progression-free survival (PFS) was 53% (95% CI, 45% to 60%). The 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 41% (95% CI, 34% to 48%) with a continuous pattern of relapse events occurring at a median of 2.1 years (range, .2 to 13.4) after ASCT. In multivariate analysis, post-transplant maintenance rituximab was the factor most significantly associated with both OS (relative risk [RR], .17; 95% CI, .07 to .38) and PFS (RR, .25; 95% CI, .14 to .44). For the subset of patients who had positron emission tomography (PET) data available and were in a PET-negative first complete remission at ASCT (n = 105), maintenance rituximab was significantly associated with superior OS (RR, .17; 95% CI, .05 to .59) and PFS (RR, .20; 95% CI, .09 to .43). These results support a benefit with maintenance rituximab for all MCL patients treated with ASCT.

Standard-dose 90yttrium-ibritumomab tiuxetan (.4 mci/kg) together with high-dose BEAM (BCNU, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) (Z-BEAM) has been shown to be a well-tolerated autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation preparative regimen for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We report the outcomes of a single-center, single-arm phase II trial of Z-BEAM conditioning in high-risk CD20+ non-Hodgkin lymphoma histologic strata: diffuse large B cell (DLBCL), mantle cell, follicular, and transformed. Robust overall survival and notably low nonrelapse mortality rates (.9% at day +100 for the entire cohort), with few short- and long-term toxicities, confirm the safety and tolerability of the regimen. In addition, despite a high proportion of induction failure patients (46%), the promising response and progression-free survival (PFS) rates seen in DLBCL (3-year PFS: 71%; 95% confidence interval, 55 to 82%), support the premise that the Z-BEAM regimen is particularly effective in this histologic subtype. The role of Z-BEAM in other strata is less clear in the context of the emergence of novel agents.

Myeloablative autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a mainstay of therapy for relapsed intermediate-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL); however, relapse rates are high. In phase 1 studies designed to improve long-term remission rates, we administered adoptive T-cell immunotherapy after HSCT, using ex vivo-expanded autologous central memory-enriched T cells (TCM) transduced with lentivirus expressing CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). We present results from 2 safety/feasibility studies, NHL1 and NHL2, investigating different T-cell populations and CAR constructs. Engineered TCM-derived CD19 CAR T cells were infused 2 days after HSCT at doses of 25 to 200 × 10(6) in a single infusion. In NHL1, 8 patients safely received T-cell products engineered from enriched CD8(+) TCM subsets, expressing a first-generation CD19 CAR containing only the CD3ζ endodomain (CD19R:ζ). Four of 8 patients (50%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 16-84%) were progression free at both 1 and 2 years. In NHL2, 8 patients safely received T-cell products engineered from enriched CD4(+) and CD8(+) TCM subsets and expressing a second-generation CD19 CAR containing the CD28 and CD3ζ endodomains (CD19R:28ζ). Six of 8 patients (75%; 95% CI: 35-97%) were progression free at 1 year. The CD4(+)/CD8(+) TCM-derived CD19 CAR T cells (NHL2) exhibited improvement in expansion; however, persistence was ≤28 days, similar to that seen by others using CD28 CARs. Neither cytokine release syndrome nor delayed hematopoietic engraftment was observed in either trial. These data demonstrate the safety and feasibility of CD19 CAR TCM therapy after HSCT. Trials were registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01318317 and #NCT01815749.

The authors assessed the overall response rate, including confirmed complete response (CR) and partial response, in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma treated with sorafenib. Qualitative and quantitative toxicities associated with this regimen were evaluated. Patients were eligible if they had a confirmed diagnosis of refractory or relapsed (RR) multiple myeloma (MM) with measurable monoclonal protein. Patients had to have adequate renal, hepatic, hematologic, and cardiac function with a Zubrod performance status of 0-2. Patients were given 400 mg sorafenib by mouth twice daily for 28-day treatment cycles. These patients were followed up for a maximum of 3 years to assess responses and adverse events. Twenty-three patients were enrolled. Of these, five were found to be ineligible for the following reasons: four had insufficient documentation of the baseline disease and one patient did not have measurable disease. All eighteen eligible patients were evaluable for toxicities. Three patients experienced grade 4 toxicities: one with thrombocytopenia, one with anemia, and one with renal failure. Four of the eighteen eligible patients were not assessable for response due to removal from protocol treatment prior to adequate disease assessment. Specifically, three were removed for either grade 4 toxicity or progression of disease and one was removed per patient choice (due to reasons unrelated to treatment). Of the 18 patients who were assessed for toxicities, 5 (27.8%) received at least one fully dosed cycle, 2 (11.1%) of whom had all cycles fully dosed. No responses were observed on this study of the 14 patients who were assessable for response. All patients have discontinued protocol treatment as of August 2008. Overall survival at 12 months was 50% (95% CI 27-73%) and median progression-free survival was 1.2 months (95% CI 1.0-5.4). The trial did not exhibit activity by the International Uniform Response Criteria for MM. Further research should focus on combination therapy of sorafenib with standard treatments in selected patients with RR MM.

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) with reduced-intensity conditioning is an appealing option for patients with high-risk multiple myeloma (MM). However, progression after alloHCT remains a challenge. Maintenance therapy after alloHCT may offer additional disease control and allow time for a graft-versus-myeloma effect. The primary objective of this clinical trial was to determine the tolerability and safety profile of maintenance lenalidomide (LEN) given on days 1 to 21 of 28 days cycles, with intrapatient dose escalation during 12 months/cycles after alloHCT. Thirty alloHCT recipients (median age, 54 years) with high-risk MM were enrolled at 8 centers between 2009 and 2012. The median time from alloHCT to LEN initiation was 96 days (range, 66 to 171 days). Eleven patients (37%) completed maintenance and 10 mg daily was the most commonly delivered dose (44%). Most common reasons for discontinuation were acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (37%) and disease progression (37%). Cumulative incidence of grades III to IV acute GVHD from time of initiation of LEN was 17%. Outcomes at 18 months after initiation of maintenance were MM progression, 28%; transplantation-related mortality, 11%; and progression-free and overall survival, 63% and 78%, respectively. The use of LEN after alloHCT is feasible at lower doses, although it is associated with a 38% incidence of acute GVHD. Survival outcomes observed in this high-risk MM population warrant further study of this approach.
