A B-cell receptor-related gene signature predicts survival in mantle cell lymphoma: results from the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi MCL-0208 trial.

ABSTRACT: Mantle cell lymphoma patients have variable clinical courses, ranging from indolent cases that do not require immediate treatment to aggressive, rapidly progressing diseases. Thus, diagnostic tools capable of stratifying patients according to their risk of relapse and death are needed. This study included 83 samples from the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi MCL-0208 clinical trial. Through gene expression profiling and quantitative real-time PCR we analyzed 46 peripheral blood and 43 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded lymph node samples. A prediction model to classify patients was developed. By analyzing the transcriptome of 27 peripheral blood samples, two subgroups characterized by a differential expression of genes from the B-cell receptor pathway (B-cell receptorlow and B-cell receptorhigh) were identified. The prediction model based on the quantitative real-time PCR values of six representative genes (AKT3, BCL2, BTK, CD79B, PIK3CD, and SYK), was used to classify the 83 cases (43 B-cell receptorlow and 40 B-cell receptorhigh). The B-cell receptorhigh signature associated with shorter progression-free survival (P=0.0074), selected the mantle cell lymphoma subgroup with the shortest progression-free survival and overall survival (P=0.0014 and P=0.029, respectively) in combination with high (>30%) Ki-67 staining, and was an independent predictor of short progression- free survival along with the Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index-combined score. Moreover, the clinical impact of the 6- gene signature related to the B-cell receptor pathway identified a mantle cell lymphoma subset with shorter progression-free survival intervals also in an external independent mantle cell lymphoma cohort homogenously treated with different schedules. In conclusion, this 6-gene signature associates with a poor clinical response in the context of the MCL- 0208 clinical trial. (clinicaltrials.gov identifier: 02354313).

Project description:The increase of lymphoma patient survival led to a modification of the incidence of long-term sequelae, including second malignancies (SM). Several groups have dealt with the incidence of SM, according to the primary treatment; however, a standardized approach for the early detection and screening of SM in the population of lymphoma survivors should be implemented. A systematic review was conducted by Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL), in order to define the incidence of SM, the impact of modern radiotherapy on SM risk, and the usefulness of tailored follow-up and screening strategies for early diagnosis of SM. Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) survivors were investigated. The MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were checked for relevant reports published up to January 2020. The selection process was reported according to the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A total of 27 full-text manuscripts resulted as eligible for the analysis. The incidence of SM in cHL patients treated with ABVD was higher compared to the general population and was even higher in patients treated with intensified regimens. The risk increased over time, as well as after 10-15 years from therapy, and was augmented by radiotherapy exposure. In DLBCL, more intensive regimens (i.e., R-CHOEP or R-MegaCHOEP) vs. R-CHOP were associated with a higher SM incidence. Salvage chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplants increased the risk of SM in both cHL and DLBCL cohorts. A lower incidence of SM, particularly of breast cancer (BC), was shown in cohorts of cHL survivors treated with reduced radiation volumes and doses (involved fields vs. extended fields), but robust trials are still lacking. Considering the advantage of a structured screening for early detection of SM, all the included studies regarded cHL survivors and screening strategy for early BC detection. Moreover, the authors discuss additional papers, to guide the early diagnosis of lung, colorectal, skin, and thyroid cancer in patients at risk due to family history, drug or RT exposure, or unhealthy lifestyles. These screening strategies all passed through patient awareness. A modern approach to chemotherapy and radiotherapy led to a lower risk of SM, which should be confirmed over time. Early detection of secondary cancers could be achieved through a tailored screening program, according to the individual risk profile.

Project description:Cardiotoxicity represents the most frequent cause with higher morbidity and mortality among long-term sequelae affecting classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. The multidisciplinary team of Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) researchers, with the methodological guide of Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche "Mario Negri", conducted a systematic review of the literature (PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane database) according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, in order to analyze the following aspects of cHL and DLBCL survivorship: (i) incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD); (ii) risk of long-term CVD with the use of less cardiotoxic therapies (reduced-field radiotherapy and liposomal doxorubicin); and (iii) preferable cardiovascular monitoring for left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, coronary heart disease (CHD) and valvular disease (VHD). After the screening of 659 abstracts and related 113 full-text papers, 23 publications were eligible for data extraction and included in the final sample. There was an increased risk for CVD in cHL survivors of 3.6 for myocardial infarction and 4.9 for congestive heart failure (CHF) in comparison to the general population; the risk increased over the years of follow-up. In addition, DLBCL patients presented a 29% increased risk for CHF. New radiotherapy techniques suggested reduced risk of late CVD, but only dosimetric studies were available. The optimal monitoring of LV function by 2D-STE echocardiography should be structured according to individual CV risk, mainly considering as risk factors a cumulative doxorubicine dose >250 mg per square meter (m2) and mediastinal radiotherapy >30 Gy, age at treatment <25 years and age at evaluation >60 years, evaluating LV ejection fraction, global longitudinal strain, and global circumferential strain. The evaluation for asymptomatic CHD should be offered starting from the 10th year after mediastinal RT, considering ECG, stress echo, or coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. Given the suggested increased risks of cardiovascular outcomes in lymphoma survivors compared to the general population, tailored screening and prevention programs may be warranted to offset the future burden of disease.
