Project description:Background: As conditional survival could provide more relevant prognostic information at each follow-up time, the present study aimed to assess conditional overall survival (COS) based on two cohorts and assess the risks of death due to renal cell carcinoma (RCC) vs. other causes. Methods: The Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (FUSCC) and Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were used as the source of data for our analysis. COS and cancer-specific survival were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: A total of 90,927 patients (SEER cohort = 88,807, FUSCC cohort = 2,120) were enrolled. Our results suggest that hazards of other causes-related death were always higher than that of cancer-specific death in low-risk RCC patients, but lower in metastatic RCC patients. It exceeded that of cancer-specific death by 8 years in high-risk RCC patients. Only in metastatic RCC patients, the COS improved markedly with survivorship increasing. After surviving 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years, the 5 years COS increased by +10, +18, +23, +29, and 35% (the observed 5 years OS: 12%), respectively. Conclusions: COS can better help patients with metastatic RCC rather than other RCC patients. Additionally, COS brings optimism for metastatic RCC patients with expected poorer prognosis psychologically.

Project description:Optimal salvage therapy for primary refractory peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) and the role of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (SCT) remain poorly defined. We conducted a retrospective review of clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in a single-center cohort of 93 patients with primary refractory PTCL, defined as progression during first-line therapy or relapse within 6 months of its completion. Clinical outcomes were poor in this population, with median event-free survival (EFS) of 3.5 months, median overall survival (OS) of 9.1 months, and 34% 3-year survival. Outcomes were comparable in patients who progressed through first-line therapy and patients who achieved CR/PR and subsequently relapsed within 6 months. A majority exhibited high-risk features and had intermediate to high risk IPI, which correlated with inferior outcomes. There was no difference in outcomes between patients who received single-agent salvage regimens and patients who underwent traditional, multi-agent salvage regimens. Thus, participation in well-designed clinical trials should be encouraged in this population. Additionally, there may be a trend toward improved EFS and OS in patients who underwent autologous or allogeneic SCT compared to patients who achieved CR or PR but were not transplanted.

Project description:ObjectiveTo explore the correlation of mutation landscape with clinical outcomes in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological and prognosis data of 53 patients with PTCL from November 2011 to December 2017. Targeted next-generation sequencing of a 659-gene panel was performed for tissues from 53 patients with PTCLs. The correlation of mutation landscape with clinical outcomes was analyzed.ResultsTET2 was the most frequently mutated gene (64%), followed by RHOA (43%), PCLO (23%), DNMT3A (19%), IDH2 (17%), PIEZO1 (17%) and TP53 (15%). When mutated genes were categorized into functional groups, the most common mutations were those involved in epigenetic/chromatin modification (75%), T-cell activation (74%), and the DNA repair/TP53 pathway (64%). TET2/TP53 mutations were significantly associated with positive B symptoms (P = 0.045), and elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level (P = 0.011). Moreover, TET2/TP53 mutation was a risk factor for PTCL patient survival (HR 3.574, 95% CI 1.069 - 11.941, P = 0.039). The occurrence of JAK/STAT pathway mutations in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) patients conferred a worse progression-free survival (HR 2.366, 95% CI 0.9130-6.129, P = 0.0334).ConclusionsHeterogeneous gene mutations occur in PTCL, some of which have a negative impact on the survival outcome.

Project description:The aim of this study is to evaluate the survival benefit of consolidative autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL). In this retrospective study, the ASCT group underwent consolidative ASCT after first-line therapy at 14 transplantation centers in China between January 2001 and December 2019. Data were collected over the same time frame for the non-ASCT group from the database of lymphoma patient records at Peking University Cancer Hospital & Institute. A total of 120 and 317 patients were enrolled in the ASCT and non-ASCT groups, respectively, and their median ages were 43 years and 51 years, respectively. In the ASCT group, 101 patients had achieved complete remission (CR) and 19 patients had achieved partial remission at the time of ASCT. The median follow-up time was 40.2 months and 68 months, and the 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 80.6% and 48.9% (p < 0.001) for the ASCT and non-ASCT groups, respectively. The beneficial effect of ASCT for OS remained even after propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis (81.6% vs 68.3%, p = 0.001). Among the 203 patients who were aged ≤ 65 years and achieved CR, ASCT conferred a significant survival benefit (3-year progression-free survival [PFS]: 67.4% vs 47.0%, p = 0.004; 3-year OS: 84.0% vs 74.1%, p = 0.010), and this was also maintained after PSM analysis (3-year PFS: 66.6% vs 48.4%, p = 0.042; 3-year OS: 84.8% vs 70.5%, p = 0.011). Consolidative ASCT improved the survival outcome of PTCL patients, even those who achieved CR after first-line therapy.

Project description:Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) represent a heterogeneous group of rare hematologic malignancies accounting for less than 10% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The 2016 classification of World Health Organization recognized 29 different entities of PTCLs. These subgroups are characterized by different molecular and genetic patterns. For nearly 30 years, little improvement in the treatment of PTCLs has been noticed due to the paucity of randomized trials and anthracycline-based chemotherapy remains the mainstay of first-line treatment. In front-line setting, ECHELON-2, the first randomized controlled Phase III clinical trial, recently met its primary endpoint of PFS demonstrating the superiority of BV containing regimen when compared to standard CHOP in patients with CD30 positive PTCLs. The role of therapeutic intensifications such as autologous or allogenic stem cell transplantations remains controversial in first-line setting and in relapsed/refractory disease due to the lack of studies clearly addressing this question and the recently published negative studies. PTCLs are often refractory to first-line chemotherapy and tend to relapse after an initial response. New agents have been approved for relapsed/refractory disease such as Histone deacetylase inhibitors, folate analogue metabolic inhibitor or CD30 antibody drug conjugated. Despite an acceptable response to these agents, progression-free survival remains very poor. New strategies such as combinations of different agents have been evaluated in order to improve outcomes. Innovative drugs in the fields of epigenetics, immunomodulation within the tumor microenvironment, and direct targeting of tumor cells to CD30 and T-cell receptor abnormalities open new perspectives to improve the treatment of PTCLs.

Project description:Cancer cells are characterized by genetic mutations that deregulate cell proliferation and suppress cell death. To arrest the uncontrolled replication of malignant cells, conventional chemotherapies systemically disrupt cell division, causing diverse and often severe side effects as a result of collateral damage to normal cells. Seeking to address this shortcoming, we pursue therapeutic regulation that is conditional, activating selectively in cancer cells. This functionality is achieved using small conditional RNAs that interact and change conformation to mechanically transduce between detection of a cancer mutation and activation of a therapeutic pathway. Here, we describe small conditional RNAs that undergo hybridization chain reactions (HCR) to induce cell death via an innate immune response if and only if a cognate mRNA cancer marker is detected within a cell. The sequences of the small conditional RNAs can be designed to accept different mRNA markers as inputs to HCR transduction, providing a programmable framework for selective killing of diverse cancer cells. In cultured human cancer cells (glioblastoma, prostate carcinoma, Ewing's sarcoma), HCR transduction mediates cell death with striking efficacy and selectivity, yielding a 20- to 100-fold reduction in population for cells containing a cognate marker, and no measurable reduction otherwise. Our results indicate that programmable mechanical transduction with small conditional RNAs represents a fundamental principle for exploring therapeutic conditional regulation in living cells.

Project description:Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is an alloplasm group of aggressive and lymphoproliferative tumors with heterogeneous morphological changes of mature T cell immunophenotype. It has multiple subtypes and most of them have poor prognosis. Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is one kind of multi-cell-derived and multifunctional cytokine. It regulates the growth and differentiation of cells, participates in inflammation and immune response, plays an important role in tumor and infection, and is closely related to blood system diseases. Therefore, we implemented a retrospective study of 205 patients who were newly diagnosed with PTCL to explore the relationship between IL-10 and prognosis and early recurrence. We found patients with IL-10 ?3.6 pg/ml achieved a lower CR rate and higher 1-year recurrence rate than patients with IL-10 <3.6 pg/ml (14.4 vs. 51.9%; 17.6 vs. 49.5%). On multivariate analysis, moreover, elevated IL-10 is an extremely important prognostic factor in PTCL, which can lead to worsening of overall survival (OS), low complete response (CR) rate and higher early relapse rate. Therefore, measurement of IL-10 levels in peripheral blood at the initial stage are useful for predicting the prognosis and helping us to make different treatment plans for individual patients. In the near future, IL-10 inhibitors or antagonists may become a new method of immunotargeting therapy for patients with PTCL.

Project description:Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) comprise a heterogeneous group of mature T-cell neoplasms with a poor prognosis. Recently, mutations in TET2 and other epigenetic modifiers as well as RHOA have been identified in these diseases, particularly in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). CD28 is the major co-stimulatory receptor in T cells which, upon binding ligand, induces sustained T-cell proliferation and cytokine production when combined with T-cell receptor stimulation. We have identified recurrent mutations in CD28 in PTCLs. Two residues-D124 and T195-were recurrently mutated in 11.3% of cases of AITL and in one case of PTCL, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS). Surface plasmon resonance analysis of mutations at these residues with predicted differential partner interactions showed increased affinity for ligand CD86 (residue D124) and increased affinity for intracellular adaptor proteins GRB2 and GADS/GRAP2 (residue T195). Molecular modeling studies on each of these mutations suggested how these mutants result in increased affinities. We found increased transcription of the CD28-responsive genes CD226 and TNFA in cells expressing the T195P mutant in response to CD3 and CD86 co-stimulation and increased downstream activation of NF-?B by both D124V and T195P mutants, suggesting a potential therapeutic target in CD28-mutated PTCLs.

Project description:Cholesterol is essential for cells to grow and proliferate. Normal mammalian cells meet their need for cholesterol through its uptake or de novo synthesis1, but the extent to which cancer cells rely on each of these pathways remains poorly understood. Here, using a competitive proliferation assay on a pooled collection of DNA-barcoded cell lines, we identify a subset of cancer cells that is auxotrophic for cholesterol and thus highly dependent on its uptake. Through metabolic gene expression analysis, we pinpoint the loss of squalene monooxygenase expression as a cause of cholesterol auxotrophy, particularly in ALK+ anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) cell lines and primary tumours. Squalene monooxygenase catalyses the oxidation of squalene to 2,3-oxidosqualene in the cholesterol synthesis pathway and its loss results in accumulation of the upstream metabolite squalene, which is normally undetectable. In ALK+ ALCLs, squalene alters the cellular lipid profile and protects cancer cells from ferroptotic cell death, providing a growth advantage under conditions of oxidative stress and in tumour xenografts. Finally, a CRISPR-based genetic screen identified cholesterol uptake by the low-density lipoprotein receptor as essential for the growth of ALCL cells in culture and as patient-derived xenografts. This work reveals that the cholesterol auxotrophy of ALCLs is a targetable liability and, more broadly, that systematic approaches can be used to identify nutrient dependencies unique to individual cancer types.

Project description:Cytosine methylation contributes to the regulation of gene expression and normal hematopoiesis in mammals. It is catalyzed by the family of DNA methyltransferases that include DNMT1, DNMT3A, and DNMT3B. Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) represent aggressive mature T-cell malignancies exhibiting a broad spectrum of clinical features with poor prognosis and inadequately understood molecular pathobiology. To better understand the molecular landscape and identify candidate genes involved in disease maintenance, we profiled DNA methylation and gene expression of PTCLs. We found that the methylation patterns in PTCLs are deregulated and heterogeneous but share 767 hypo- and 567 hypermethylated differentially methylated regions (DMRs) along with 231 genes up- and 91 genes downregulated in all samples, suggesting a potential association with tumor development. We further identified 39 hypomethylated promoters associated with increased gene expression in the majority of PTCLs. This putative oncogenic signature included the TRIP13 (thyroid hormone receptor interactor 13) gene whose genetic and pharmacologic inactivation inhibited the proliferation of T-cell lines by inducing G2-M arrest and apoptosis. Our data thus show that human PTCLs have a significant number of recurrent methylation alterations that may affect the expression of genes critical for proliferation whose targeting might be beneficial in anti-lymphoma treatments.
