Effects of first-line chemotherapy on natural killer cells in adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma and peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Natural killer (NK) cells are well known to be the most important effector cells mediating antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) which is an important mechanism of action of antibody drugs. We evaluated the effects of chemotherapy on the cell number and activity of NK cells from patients who received the vincristine-cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-prednisone (VCAP), doxorubicin-ranimustine-prednisone (AMP), and vindesine-etoposide-carboplatin-prednisone (VECP) (mLSG15) or mLSG15-like (-L) regimen, which is one of the standard of cares for newly diagnosed adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL), or the cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-vincristine-prednisone (CHOP) or CHOP-L regimen which is another standard of care for ATL and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).The number of lymphocytes and NK cells, and NK cell activity, were assessed using flow cytometry and a (51)Cr release assay, respectively.A total of 26 patients with untreated ATL or PTCL were enrolled, and blood samples from 25 patients were evaluable. NK cell number in ATL decreased after mLSG15/-L treatment, and the degree of decrease in the NK cell number was more prominent just before VECP therapy (Day 15-17 of each cycle) than just before VCAP therapy (Day 1 of each cycle). The NK cell number in ATL after CHOP/-L treatment also decreased. Interestingly, the NK cell activity showed a tendency to increase after the treatment. NK cell number in PTCL did not decrease by CHOP/-L regimen, but the activity was slightly decreased after the treatment.These results indicate that the effects of chemotherapeutic agents on NK cells vary according to the disease type and intensity of chemotherapy.

Project description:In November 2018, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved brentuximab vedotin (BV) for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma or other CD30-expressing peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL), including angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma and PTCL not otherwise specified, in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (CHP). Approval was based on ECHELON-2, a randomized, double-blind, actively controlled trial that compared BV+CHP with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) in 452 patients with newly diagnosed, CD30-expressing PTCL. Efficacy was based on independent review facility-assessed progression-free survival (PFS). The median PFS was 48.2 months with BV+CHP versus 20.8 months with CHOP, resulting in a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.71 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.54-0.93). The trial also demonstrated improvement in overall survival (HR 0.66; 95% CI: 0.46-0.95), complete response rate (68% vs. 56%), and overall response rate (83% vs. 72%) with BV+CHP. The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥20%) observed ≥2% more with BV+CHP were nausea, diarrhea, fatigue or asthenia, mucositis, pyrexia, vomiting, and anemia. Peripheral neuropathy rates were similar (52% with BV+CHP, 55% with CHOP). Through the Real-Time Oncology Review pilot program, which allows FDA early access to key data, FDA granted this approval less than 2 weeks after official submission of the application. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: This is the first U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for treatment of patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL). Improvement in progression-free and overall survival over cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone chemotherapy, which has been the standard of care for decades, is unprecedented. The new regimen represents a major advance for the frontline treatment of patients with CD30-expressing PTCL.
