Project description:IntroductionRelapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) has poor clinical outcomes when treated with conventional salvage chemotherapy. Monotherapy using zanubrutinib, a selective Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has achieved modest antitumor effect in R/R DLBCL. Here we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy in R/R DLBCL patients.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed R/R DLBCL patients who were administered with zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy in our center between January, 2019 and December, 2021. Targeted panel sequencing of 11 lymphoma-related genes was performed on 8 patients with poor responses to zanubrutinib-based chemotherapy.Results27 R/R DLBCL patients were enrolled. Median age at this study was 59 years (range, 15-72). The best overall response rate (ORR) was 74.1% and complete remission rate was 33.3%. With a median follow-up of 11 months (range, 1-17), the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.1 months, and the overall survival (OS) was not achieved. The most common grade-3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (70.4%), thrombocytopenia (66.7%), and febrile neutropenia (33.3%). In multivariate analysis, early treatment and overall response after chemotherapy were independent favorable prognostic factors for PFS. Overall response after chemotherapy was an independent favorable factor for OS. Among the 8 patients with poor response to zanubrutinib-based treatment, the majority of patients had NOTCH2 mutations (n=8, 100%) and TP53 mutations (n=7, 87.5%). However, these patients achieved an ORR of 75% at 3 months after CD19-CAR-T cell therapy (including 4 cases of complete remission and 2 cases of partial remission). With a median follow-up of 9 months from CAR-T cell infusion (range, 1-16 months), the median PFS was 14.5 months, and the median OS was not reached.ConclusionWith high efficacy and manageable tolerability, zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy may be a potential treatment option for R/R DLBCL. CAR-T cell therapy may be a priority strategy for these poor responders to BTKi-based treatment.

Project description:This single-arm phase 3 study was conducted to confirm the results of our phase 2 study of bendamustine (B)-rituximab (R) in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (rrDLBCL). The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR). Autologous stem cell transplantation-ineligible rrDLBCL patients with ≤ 2 prior chemotherapy regimens received R 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1 and B 120 mg/m2/day IV on days 2 and 3 every 21 days up to 6 cycles. Thirty-eight patients with a median age of 74 years (range, 43-86) received BR. The ORR and complete response rates were 76.3% and 47.4%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 19.5 months including long-term follow-up, median progression-free survival was 11.9 months. Median OS was 29.2 months. Discontinuation of treatment due to Gr3-5 TEAE was observed among 13 of 38 patients (34.2%). One patient with cytomegalovirus enterocolitis died during follow-up. This BR regimen was confirmed to be effective and tolerable in studied patients. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03372837 registered on 14 December 2017, NCT04354402 registered on 21 April, 2020.

Project description:The non-germinal center B-cell like (non-GCB) subtype of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) has poor clinical outcomes. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors have established therapeutic activity in B-cell malignancies, with modest activity in DLBCL. Zanubrutinib, a potent and selective BTK inhibitor, was evaluated in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) non-GCB DLBCL. The BGB-3111-207 study (NCT03145064) was a multicenter single-arm phase 2 study. Patients received twice-daily oral zanubrutinib, 160 mg, until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary end point was the overall response rate (ORR). Secondary end points included progression-free survival (PFS) and duration of response (DOR). Overall survival (OS) was an exploratory end point. Forty-one patients were enrolled in China after having progressed or not responded to prior therapy. At data cutoff, 4 patients continued treatment with 37 discontinuations. The median follow-up was 6.8 months, the ORR was 29.3%, and the complete response rate was 17.1%. Median DOR, PFS, and OS were 4.5, 2.8, and 8.4 months, respectively. Adverse events (AEs) leading to treatment discontinuation were reported in 4 patients, and grade ≥ 3 AEs were reported in 48.8% of patients. Major hemorrhage, atrial fibrillation, and/or flutter were not observed. Zanubrutinib demonstrated modest antitumor activity in non-GCB DLBCL, like other BTK inhibitors, as well as a safety profile consistent with previous studies. Through retrospective biomarker testing, potential antitumor activity was observed in patients with both CD79B and MYD88 mutations, who have inferior outcomes to immunochemotherapy. Future studies of zanubrutinib in R/R non-GCB DLBCL will focus on developing mechanism-based treatment combinations and biomarker-driven patient selection.

Project description:IntroductionTafasitamab plus lenalidomide (TAFA + LEN) received accelerated US Food and Drug Administration approval and conditional European Medicines Agency approval for treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) not eligible for autologous stem cell transplant. This study investigates the relative efficacy of TAFA + LEN versus comparator treatments.MethodsMatching-adjusted indirect comparisons (MAICs) of TAFA + LEN were performed using data from L-MIND, and comparator studies assessing rituximab-based combination therapies, including polatuzumab vedotin + bendamustine + rituximab (POLA + BR) bendamustine + rituximab (BR), and gemcitabine + oxaliplatin + rituximab (R-GEMOX) to provide relative efficacy estimates for overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response (DOR), objective response rate (ORR), and complete response rate (CRR). Patient-level data from L-MIND were weighted to match reported distributions of clinically validated prognostic factors and effect modifiers in comparator trials. MAIC results versus multiple BR studies were pooled using meta-analysis.ResultsMAICs were feasible versus POLA + BR and BR. Compared to POLA + BR, TAFA + LEN was associated with significantly longer DOR [hazard ratio (HR) 0.34 (95% CI 0.12, 0.98); p = 0.045]. Due to concerns about the proportional hazard assumption for OS and PFS, separate HRs were estimated before and after 4 months of follow-up. OS after 4 months, was significantly greater for TAFA + LEN versus POLA + BR [HR 0.41 (95% CI 0.19, 0.90); p = 0.026]. Compared with BR, TAFA + LEN was associated with significantly improved OS [GO29365 comparator trial: HR 0.39 (95% CI 0.18, 0.82); p = 0.014], PFS (pooled data: HR 0.39 (95% CI 0.29, 0.53); p < 0.001], DOR [pooled data: HR 0.35 (95% CI 0.25, 0.50); p < 0.001], and CRR [pooled data: odds ratio 2.43 (95% CI 1.33, 4.41); p = 0.004].ConclusionIn MAIC analyses, treatment with TAFA + LEN for R/R DLBCL provided better OS and PFS outcomes than standard treatment regimens. Validation from large, randomized, phase 3 clinical trials is required to confirm these results.

Project description:AbstractPatients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) ineligible for available salvage therapies have limited options for long-term disease control, necessitating novel treatments. Previously, magrolimab (anti-cluster-of-differentiation-47 antibody) plus rituximab (M+R) demonstrated ability to induce complete responses (CR) in R/R DLBCL. Here, we report 3-year follow-up data from this phase 1b/2 study assessing long-term safety and efficacy of M+R, and initial safety and efficacy of M+R plus gemcitabine-oxaliplatin (M+R-GemOx), in R/R DLBCL. After magrolimab priming, 4 groups of patients received M+R, 10 to 45 mg/kg magrolimab with 375 mg/m2 rituximab; patients receiving M+R-GemOx received 30 or 45 mg/kg magrolimab with 375 mg/m2 rituximab, 1000 mg/m2 gemcitabine, and 100 mg/m2 oxaliplatin. Primary end points were treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and objective response rate (ORR). Secondary end points included duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Of 132 patients treated, 99 received M+R and 33 received M+R-GemOx. Most common any-grade TEAEs were fatigue (M+R, 40%; M+R-GemOx, 70%), infusion-related reactions (M+R, 39%), or anemia (M+R-GemOx, 70%). Treatment-related TEAEs led to magrolimab discontinuation in 7% (M+R) and 6% (M+R-GemOx). One death was considered treatment related (M+R-GemOx, colitis). M+R ORR was 24% (CR, 12%), and median DOR was 9.3 months. Median PFS and OS were 1.8 and 9.2 months, respectively. M+R-GemOx ORR was 52% (CR, 39%); 12-month DOR rate was 66.6% (95% confidence interval, 33.1-86.1). Median PFS and OS were 3.9 months and not reached, respectively. These results demonstrate that M+R with/without GemOx is well tolerated, and M+R-GemOx has clinical activity in patients with R/R DLBCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02953509.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common non Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in adults, and it accounts for about 30% of adult NHL cases. Newly diagnosed patients are treated with rituximab in combination with anthracycline-containing chemotherapy, but a significant number of patients relapse after initial treatment. New strategies for relapsed lymphomas are in development among which antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are currently in clinical trials. Polatuzumab vedotin is a novel ADC which binds to the commonly expressed B-cell antigen CD79b, and it delivers monomethyl auristatin E, a small molecule with anti-tubulin activity. Polatuzumab vedotin in combination with bendamustine and rituximab (BR) has been approved in the U.S. and the E.U. for use in patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL ineligible for transplant. These approvals were based on a randomized study of patients treated with either polatuzumab vedotin plus BR or BR alone, where complete response was 40% in the polatuzumab vedotin + BR group versus 18% in the BR group. The most common adverse events of this treatment were cytopenias and peripheral neuropathy.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of the study was to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of lenalidomide plus rituximab vs rituximab alone in patients with relapsed or refractory indolent lymphoma.MethodsA Markov decision model was established to carry out the cost-effectiveness analysis. Three discrete health states, progression-free survival (PFS), progressive disease (PD), and death, were included. Cycle length was set at 1 month, and utility scores were derived from previously published literature. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) was defined as the primary endpoint, and the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold was set at $29,306.43 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY). Both cost and effectiveness were determined using a 3% annual discount rate. Furthermore, one-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed to check the robustness of the model.ResultsLenalidomide plus rituximab gained 6.08 QALYs at a cost of $120,979.62 while rituximab alone gained 4.84 QALYs at a cost of $48,052.11. The ICER of lenalidomide plus rituximab vs rituximab alone was $58,812.51/QALY. The parameters most significantly influenced the model were the utility values for the PFS state, the duration of the PFS state in the lenalidomide plus rituximab group, and the cost of lenalidomide. The probability of lenalidomide plus rituximab or rituximab alone being the most cost-effective option was 0% and 100%, respectively, at a WTP threshold of $29,306.43/QALY.ConclusionsLenalidomide plus rituximab is not a cost-effective strategy compared with rituximab monotherapy for relapsed or refractory indolent lymphoma from a Chinese societal perspective.

Project description:PurposePatients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma typically respond well to first-line immunochemotherapy. At relapse, single-agent rituximab is commonly administered. Data suggest the immunomodulatory agent lenalidomide could increase the activity of rituximab.MethodsA phase III, multicenter, randomized trial of lenalidomide plus rituximab versus placebo plus rituximab was conducted in patients with relapsed and/or refractory follicular or marginal zone lymphoma. Patients received lenalidomide or placebo for 12 cycles plus rituximab once per week for 4 weeks in cycle 1 and day 1 of cycles 2 through 5. The primary end point was progression-free survival per independent radiology review.ResultsA total of 358 patients were randomly assigned to lenalidomide plus rituximab (n = 178) or placebo plus rituximab (n = 180). Infections (63% v 49%), neutropenia (58% v 23%), and cutaneous reactions (32% v 12%) were more common with lenalidomide plus rituximab. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (50% v 13%) and leukopenia (7% v 2%) were higher with lenalidomide plus rituximab; no other grade 3 or 4 adverse event differed by 5% or more between groups. Progression-free survival was significantly improved for lenalidomide plus rituximab versus placebo plus rituximab, with a hazard ratio of 0.46 (95% CI, 0.34 to 0.62; P < .001) and median duration of 39.4 months (95% CI, 22.9 months to not reached) versus 14.1 months (95% CI, 11.4 to 16.7 months), respectively.ConclusionLenalidomide improved efficacy of rituximab in patients with recurrent indolent lymphoma, with an acceptable safety profile.
