Project description:BackgroundAlthough the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) has undergone advancements during the past several years, the response rate and long-term effects with respect to patients with PTCL remain unsatisfactory-particularly for relapsed or refractory (R/R) patients. This phase II trial was designed to explore the efficacy and safety of an all-oral regimen of chidamide plus prednisone, cyclophosphamide, and thalidomide (CPCT) for R/R PTCL patients who could not tolerate the standard chemotherapy for a variety of reasons.MethodsWe conducted a multicenter phase II clinical trial in which we combined chidamide (30 mg twice weekly) with prednisone (20 mg daily after breakfast), cyclophosphamide (50 mg daily after lunch), and thalidomide (100 mg daily at bedtime) (the CPCT regimen) for a total of fewer than 12 cycles as an induction-combined treatment period, and then applied chidamide as single-drug maintenance. Forty-five patients were ultimately enrolled from August 2016 to April 2021 with respect to Chinese patients at nine centers. Our primary objective was to assess the overall response rate (ORR) after the treatment with CPCT.ResultsOf the 45 enrolled patients, the optimal ORR and complete response (CR)/CR unconfirmed (CRu) were 71.1% (32/45) and 28.9% (13/45), respectively, and after a median follow-up period of 56 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 8.5 months and 17.2 months, respectively. The five-year PFS and OS rates were 21.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 7.9-34.5%) and 43.8% (95% CI, 28.3-59.3%), respectively. The most common adverse event was neutropenia (20/45, 44.4%), but we observed no treatment-related death.ConclusionThe all-oral CPCT regimen was an effective and safe regimen for R/R PTCL patients who could not tolerate standard chemotherapy for various reasons.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov , NCT02879526.

Project description:Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a common type of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) with a poor prognosis, and an effective first-line therapy is lacking. Chidamide is a selective histone deacetylase inhibitor and has been approved by the China Food and Drug Administration for relapsed or refractory PTCL. We conducted a multicenter phase II clinical trial combining chidamide with prednisone, etoposide, and thalidomide (CPET regimen) for a total of eight cycles in untreated AITL patients in China. The primary objectives were the overall response rate (ORR) and complete remission (CR) rate after eight cycles of the CPET regimen. The secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and safety. Of the 71 enrolled patients, 51 completed the eight cycles of the CPET regimen. The ORR and CR of the 51 patients were 90.2 and 54.9%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 11.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.9-17.0), the median PFS of the 51 patients was 42.6 months (95% CI, 27.7-not reached) and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. The 2-year PFS rate and OS rate were 66.5 and 82.2%, respectively. Sixty-eight patients received at least one cycle of CPET regimen and were included as the safety assessment population. The most common grade 3/4 adverse event was neutropenia (n = 22, 32.3%). Twelve patients showed treatment-related infections and recovered from antibiotic therapy; the other adverse events were mostly mild and reversible. The oral CPET regimen is an effective, tolerable, and economical choice for untreated AITL in a Chinese population. This trial was registered in www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03273452.

Project description:ObjectiveChidamide is an oral histone deacetylase subtype-selective inhibitor approved for relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). This phase 1b study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of chidamide in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (CHOP) for treatment-naïve PTCL patients.MethodsThis study was an open-label, multicenter trial composed of dose escalation and dose expansion. Patients received CHOP for six 21-d cycles and chidamide on d 1, 4, 8 and 11 in each cycle. Four dose levels of chidamide (20, 25, 30 and 35 mg) were evaluated. The primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination regimen.ResultsA total of 30 patients were evaluated in this study: 15 in the dose-escalation part and 15 in the dose-expansion part. In the dose-escalation study, three patients were enrolled in the 35 mg chidamide cohort. One had dose-limiting toxicity with grade 3 vascular access complications, and one had grade 2 neutropenia with a sustained temperature >38 °C. Dose escalation was stopped at this chidamide dose level. The most common (≥10%) grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) were leukopenia (90.0%), neutropenia (83.3%), vomiting (13.3%), thrombocytopenia (10.0%) and febrile neutropenia (10.0%). No significant changes in chidamide pharmacokinetic properties were observed before and after combination treatment. The objective response rate for the 28 patients evaluable for preliminary efficacy was 89.3% (25/28), with 16 (57.1%) achieving complete response or unconfirmed complete response. The estimated median progression-free survival was 14.0 months. In summary, we chose chidamide 30 mg as the recommended dose for phase 2.ConclusionsThe addition of chidamide to standard CHOP chemotherapy was tolerable with promising preliminary efficacy in previously untreated PTCL patients, which supports further clinical studies with this combination regimen for the frontline treatment of PTCL.

Project description:BackgroundDefibrotide is a novel orally bioavailable polydisperse oligonucleotide with anti-thrombotic and anti-adhesive effects. In SCID/NOD mice, defibrotide showed activity in human myeloma xenografts. This phase I/II study was conducted to identify the most appropriate dose of defibrotide in combination with melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide in patients with relapsed and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, and to determine its safety and tolerability as part of this regimen.Design and methodsThis was a phase I/II, multicenter, dose-escalating, non-comparative, open label study. Oral melphalan was administered at a dose of 0.25 mg/kg on days 1-4, prednisone at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg also on days 1-4 and thalidomide at a dose of 50-100 mg/day continuously. Defibrotide was administered orally at three dose-levels: 2.4, 4.8 or 7.2 g on days 1-4 and 1.6, 3.2, or 4.8 g on days 5-35.ResultsTwenty-four patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma were enrolled. No dose-limiting toxicity was observed. In all patients, the complete response plus very good partial response rate was 9%, and the partial response rate was 43%. The 1-year progression-free survival and 1-year overall survival rates were 34% and 90%, respectively. The most frequent grade 3-4 adverse events included neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia and fatigue. Deep vein thrombosis was reported in only one patient.ConclusionsThis combination of melphalan, prednisone and thalidomide together with defibrotide showed anti-tumor activity with a favorable tolerability. The maximum tolerated dose of defibrotide was identified as 7.2 g p.o. on days 1-4 followed by 4.8 g p.o. on days 5-35. Further trials are needed to confirm the role of this regimen and to evaluate the combination of defibrotide with new drugs.

Project description:Background/objectiveWe retrospectively analyzed the effective and safety of continuous low-dose cyclophosphamide combined with prednisone (CP) in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) patients with severe complications.MethodsA total of 130 RRMM patients with severe complications were enrolled in this study, among which 41 patients were further given bortezomib, lenalidomide, thalidomide or ixazomib on the basis of CP regimen (CP+X group). The response to therapy, adverse events (AEs), overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were recorded.ResultsAmong the 130 patients, 128 patients received therapeutic response assessment, with a complete remission rate (CRR) and objective response rate (ORR) of 4.7% and 58.6%, respectively. The median OS and PFS time were (38.0 ± 3.6) and (22.9±5.2) months, respectively. The most common AEs were hyperglycemia (7.7%), pneumonia (6.2%) and Cushing's syndrome (5.4%). In addition, we found the pro-BNP/BNP level was obviously decreased while the LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) was increased in RRMM patients following CP treatment as compared with those before treatment. Furthermore, CP+X regimen further improved the CRR compared with that before receiving the CP+X regimen (24.4% vs. 2.4%, P=0.007). Also, both the OS and PFS rates were significantly elevated in patients received CP+X regimen following CP regimen as compared with the patients received CP regimen only.ConclusionThis study demonstrates the metronomic chemotherapy regimen of CP is effective to RRMM patients with severe complications.

Project description:BackgroundPeripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is often prone to relapse and progression even after formal first-line treatment, and there is no standard regimen for second-line treatment. What is more, the activity of thalidomide against this type of lymphoma is unknown.PurposeThe objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GDPT regimen in the treatment of relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.Patients and methodsIn this retrospective study, gemcitabine, cisplatin, prednisone, and thalidomide (GDPT) combination regimen was used as salvage protocol for PTCL that failed in first-line treatment for 29 patients and it was scheduled to give 6 cycles of GDPT therapy in order to better evaluate the efficacy unless there was evidence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicities, or refusal by the patient.ResultsAfter a total of 106 cycles of GDPT regimen were administered, the result showed that the disease control rate (DCR) achieved 82.8% and overall response rate (ORR) reached 69.0% with 34.5% complete remission (CR) and 34.5% partial remission (PR). The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 10.0 months (95% CI 6.6-13.4) and median OS was 28.0 months (95% CI 19.2-36.8). And the 1-year PFS rate and 1-year OS rate were 43.6% and 64.6%, respectively. Both hematologic and non-hematologic toxicities were moderate and well tolerated. There was no treatment-related death.ConclusionThalidomide in combination with gemcitabine, cisplatin, prednisone regimen is a new promising approach to treating patients with relapse and refractory PTCL.

Project description:BackgroundPatients over 65 years old with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma (FL) relapse or being refractory to rituximab-associated chemotherapy have limited treatment options. Chidamide has the ability to enhance the sensitivity of rituximab-resistant tumors in vivo has been confirmed. We aimed to assess the activity and safety profile of chidamide plus rituximab in elderly Chinese patients with recurrent or refractory B-cell lymphoma.MethodsIn this prospective, single-arm phase II trial, we enrolled patients from three hospitals in China with histopathological diagnoses of DLBCL and FL who had relapsed or were refractory to previous lines of rituximab-associated chemotherapy. Patients were given chidamide (10 mg on days 1-6 and 8-14) and rituximab (375 mg/m2 on day 7). The treatments were repeated every 21 days. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). The secondary endpoints included the disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety.ResultsThirteen patients were enrolled and commenced treatment between November 12, 2018, and December 24, 2020. As of March 20, 2021, two patients (15.4%) were still receiving treatment. The median follow-up was 13.4 months. The ORR was 40% for the DLBCL cohort (n=10), and 100% for the FL cohort (n=3). DLBCL patients had a median PFS (mPFS) of 2.6 months (0.9-31.2 months) and a median OS (mOS) of 16.7 months (2.3-13.6 months). Neither mPFS nor mOS was reached in the FL cohort. The most frequent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were leukopenia (38.5%), neutropenia (30.8%), lymphopenia (30.8%), thrombocytopenia (30.8%), fatigue (38.5%), and hyperuricemia (30.8%).ConclusionsChidamide plus rituximab is clinically effective with an acceptable toxicity profile in elderly patients over 65 years old with relapsed or refractory DLBCL and FL. Further investigation is ongoing.

Project description:A randomized phase II selection design study (JCOG0904) was carried out to evaluate the more promising regimen between bortezomib (Bor) plus dexamethasone (Dex; BD) and thalidomide (Thal) plus Dex (TD) in Bor and Thal-naïve patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Patients ≥20 and <80 years old with a documented diagnosis of symptomatic multiple myeloma (MM) who received one or more prior therapies were randomized to receive BD (Bor 1.3 mg/m2 ) or TD (Thal 200 mg/d). In both arms, 8 cycles of induction (3-week cycle) were followed by maintenance phase (5-week cycle) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient refusal. The primary end-point was 1-year progression-free survival (PFS). Forty-four patients were randomized and assigned to receive BD and TD (n = 22, each group). At a median follow-up of 34.3 months, the 1-year PFS in the BD and TD arms were 45.5% (95% confidence interval (CI), 24.4%-64.3%) and 31.8% (95% CI, 14.2%-51.1%), respectively, and the overall response rates were 77.3% and 40.9%, respectively. The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 70.0% (95% CI, 44.9%-85.4%) in the BD, and 48.8% (95% CI, 25.1%-69.0%) in the TD arm. Among grade 3/4 adverse events, thrombocytopenia (54.5% vs 0.0%) and sensory peripheral neuropathy (22.7% vs 9.1%) were more frequent in BD when compared with the TD arm. Patients treated with BD had better outcomes than those treated with TD with regard to 1-year PFS and 3-year OS. Thus, BD was prioritized over TD for further investigations in Bor and Thal-naïve RRMM patients. (Clinical trial registration no. UMIN000003135.).

Project description:BackgroundPeripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is associated with poor prognosis, particularly in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease. Pralatrexate, a folate analogue inhibitor, was the first drug approved to treat R/R PTCL.ObjectiveAs the distribution of PTCL subtypes differs between populations and few patients in the pivotal trial of pralatrexate were Asian, this study investigated the safety and efficacy of pralatrexate as monotherapy in Chinese patients with R/R PTCL.Patients and methodsIn this single-arm, open-label, multicenter study, 71 patients with R/R PTCL (median [range] 2 [1-14] prior systemic treatments) were recruited from 15 centers in China and received pralatrexate IV 30 mg/m2/week for 6 weeks in 7-week cycles (with vitamin B12/folate). The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) per central review (null hypothesis: ORR < 15%).ResultsThe study's primary objective was met: ORR (95% CI) was 52% (40-64%) (p < 0.001) and responses were observed across pre-specified patient subgroups. Median (95% CI) duration of response was 8.7 (3.3-14.1) months and first response was observed in Cycle 1 for most (84%) patients. Median (95% CI) progression-free survival and overall survival was 4.8 (3.1-8.1) months and 18.0 (10.4-NA) months, respectively. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events were stomatitis (68% [Grade 3/4: 20%]), anemia (49% [Grade 3/4: 24%]) and alanine aminotransferase increase (41% [Grade 3/4: 4%]).ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that pralatrexate may represent a promising treatment option for Chinese patients with R/R PTCL. The ORR of 52% compared favorably with prior studies of pralatrexate in other populations and there were no unanticipated side effects.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03349333.
