Phase II Study of Yttrium-90 Ibritumomab Tiuxetan Plus High-Dose BCNU, Etoposide, Cytarabine, and Melphalan for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: The Role of Histology.

ABSTRACT: 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.

Project description:PurposeThe main drawbacks of radioimmunotherapy have been severe hematological toxicity and potential development of myelodysplastic syndrome and secondary leukemia. Activation of p53 follows a major pathway by which normal tissues respond to DNA-damaging agents, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, that result in injuries and pathological consequences. This pathway is separate from the tumor suppressor pathway of p53. We have previously reported that use of low-dose arsenic (LDA) temporarily and reversibly suppresses p53 activation, thereby ameliorating normal tissue toxicity from exposure to 5-fluorouracil and X rays. We have also demonstrated that LDA-mediated protection requires functional p53 and thus is selective to normal tissues, as essentially every cancer cell has dysfunctional p53. Here we tested the protective efficacy of LDA for bone marrow tissue against radioimmunotherapy through animal experiments.Methods and materialsMice were subjected to LDA pretreatment for 3 days, followed by treatment with Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan. Both dose course (10, 25, 50, 100, and 200 μCi) and time course (6, 24, and 72 hours and 1 and 2 weeks) experiments were performed. The response of bone marrow cells to LDA was determined by examining the expression of NFκB, Glut1, and Glut3. Staining with hematoxylin and eosin, γ-H2AX, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) was used to examine morphology, DNA damage response, and apoptotic cell populations.ResultsElevated levels of NFκB, Glut1, and Glut3 were observed in bone marrow cells after LDA treatment. Bone marrow damage levels induced by Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan were greatly reduced by LDA pretreatment. Consistent with this observation, significantly less DNA damage and fewer apoptotic cells were accumulated after Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan treatment in LDA-pretreated mice. Furthermore, in the mouse xenograft model implanted with human Karpas-422 lymphoma cells, LDA pretreatment did not have any detectable effect on either tumor growth or Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan (200 μCi)-induced tumor suppression.ConclusionsLDA pretreatment protected bone marrow without compromising tumor control caused by Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan.

Project description:Background: Despite advances in therapy of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), a proportion of patients will not respond or relapse. The authors had previously identified CD25, IL-2Rα, as a target for systemic radioimmunotherapy of HL since most normal cells do not express CD25, but it is expressed by a minority of Hodgkin/Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells and most Tregs rosetting around HRS cells. Study Design and Treatment: This was a single institution, nonrandomized, open-label phase I/II trial of radiolabeled 90Y-daclizumab, an anti-CD25 monoclonal antibody, BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) conditioning treatment followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (ASCT). Four patients with refractory and relapsed HL were treated in this trial with 3 patients receiving a single dose of 564.6-574.6 MBq 90Y-daclizumab and the fourth patient receiving two doses of 580.9-566.1 MBq 90Y-daclizumab followed by high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT. Results: All 4 evaluable patients treated with 90Y-daclizumab obtained complete responses (CRs) that are ongoing 4.5-7 years following their stem cell transplant. The spectrum and severity of adverse events were mild and more importantly none of the patients, including several with multiple therapies before this treatment, developed the myelodysplastic syndrome. Discussion: Targeting by daclizumab was not directed primarily at tumor cells, but rather the nonmalignant CD25-expressing T cells adjacent to the HRS cells and 90Y-daclizumab provided strong enough β emissions to kill CD25-negative tumor cells at a distance by a crossfire effect. Furthermore, the strong β irradiation killed normal cells in the tumor microenvironment. Conclusions: 90Y-daclizumab (anti-CD25), high-dose BEAM chemotherapy and ASCT was well tolerated and yielded sustained complete remissions in all 4 patients with recurrent HL patients who completed their treatment. Significance: Despite advances, a proportion of patients with HL will not have a CR to their initial treatment, and some with CRs will relapse. They demonstrated that the addition of 90Y-daclizumab into the preconditioning regimen for refractory and relapsed HL patients with high-dose BEAM chemotherapy and ASCT provided sustained CRs in the 4 patients studied. Two of these patients were highly refractory to multiple prior treatments with bulky disease at entry into this study, including 1 patient who never entered a remission and had failed 6 different therapeutic regimens. Despite the small number of patients treated in this study, the sustained clinical benefit in these patients indicates a highly effective treatment. The daclizumab was directed primarily not at HRS cells themselves but toward nonmalignant T cells rosetting around malignant cells. 90Y provided strong β emissions that killed antigen nonexpressing tumor cells at a distance by a crossfire effect. Furthermore, the strong β radiation killed normal cells in the tumor microenvironment that nurtured the malignant cells in the lymphomatous mass. The present study supports expanded analysis of 90Y-daclizumab as part of the regimen of ASCT in patients with refractory and relapsed HL.
