Profile of belinostat for the treatment of relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: The peripheral T-cell lymphomas are a rare and heterogeneous group of mature T-cell lymphomas with limited available therapies. The outcome of frontline chemotherapy regimens has been disappointing, with a long-term survival of only 20%-30%. There is an urgent need to optimize induction therapy by incorporating novel agents that target the dysregulated pathways. Histone deacetylase inhibitors that induce acetylation of histones and enhance apoptosis have shown promising activity. In this article, we summarize the role of histone deacetylase inhibitors and specifically discuss pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and toxicity of the recently US Food and Drug Administration-approved agent belinostat for its use in patients with relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

Project description:BackgroundRomidepsin is a structurally unique, potent, bicyclic class 1 selective histone deacetylase inhibitor approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma who have received ≥ 1 prior systemic therapy and patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) who have received ≥ 1 prior therapy. Approval for PTCL was based on results (n = 130; median follow-up, 13.4 months) from the pivotal study of romidepsin for the treatment of relapsed/refractory PTCL. The objective is to present updated data (median follow-up, 22.3 months) and to characterize patients who achieved long-term responses (≥ 12 months) to romidepsin.MethodsPatients with PTCL who relapsed from or were refractory to ≥ 1 prior systemic therapy received romidepsin 14 mg/m2 as a 4-hour intravenous infusion on days 1, 8, and 15 every 28 days for up to 6 cycles; patients with response or stable disease could continue romidepsin beyond 6 cycles. The primary endpoint was rate of confirmed/unconfirmed complete response (CR/CRu) determined by an Independent Review Committee. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR). For patients who achieved CR/CRu, baseline characteristics by DOR (≥ 12 vs < 12 months) were examined.ResultsThe ORR to romidepsin was 25%, including 15% with CR/CRu. The median DOR for all responders was 28 months (range, < 1-48+) and was not reached for those who achieved CR/CRu. Patients with lack of response or transient response to prior therapy achieved durable responses with romidepsin. Of the 19 patients who achieved CR/CRu, 10 had long-term (≥ 12 months) responses; none of the baseline characteristics examined-including heavy pretreatment, response to prior therapy, or advanced disease-precluded long-term responses to romidepsin. With a median progression-free survival of 29 months, patients who achieved CR/CRu for ≥ 12 months had significantly longer survival vs those with CR/CRu for < 12 months or < CR/CRu. Extended treatment and longer follow-up did not affect the reported safety profile of romidepsin.ConclusionsTreatment with romidepsin leads to highly durable responses in a subset of patients with relapsed/refractory PTCL, with responses ongoing as long as 48 months.
