2021 Update on Diffuse large B cell lymphoma: A review of current data and potential applications on risk stratification and management.

ABSTRACT: Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common type of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), comprises a heterogeneous group of diseases with different biology, clinical presentations, and response to treatment. R-CHOP remains the mainstay of therapy and can achieve long-term disease control in nearly 90% of patients presenting with limited-stage and in up to 60% of those presenting with advanced stages. Advances on the understanding of the genetic landscape and molecular features of DLBCL have identified high-risk subsets with poor outcomes to chemo-immunotherapy that are actively being studied in clinical trials. Novel therapies could potentially improve outcomes for patients with high-risk disease. Studies evaluating risk-adapted therapy based on classification by cell of origin (COO) and molecular features are ongoing. Developments in the fields of immunotherapy, mostly with adoptive T-cell therapy, have significantly improved the outcomes of patients with relapsed refractory disease. In this review, we will summarize the recent data and discuss ongoing efforts to improve DLBCL treatment in the frontline and relapsed refractory settings.

Risk Stratification Using Multivariable Fractional Polynomials in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:The risk stratification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is crucial. The International Prognostic Index, the most commonly used and the traditional risk stratification system, is composed of fixed and artificially dichotomized attributes. We aimed to develop a novel prognostic model that allows the incorporation of up-to-date attributes comprehensively without information loss. We analyzed 204 patients with primary DLBCL who were uniformly treated with R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) from 2007 to 2012 at Asan Medical Center. Using the multivariable fractional polynomial (MFP) method and bootstrap resampling, we selected the variables of significance and the best fitted functional form in fractional polynomials. Age, serum ?2-microglobulin, serum lactate dehydrogenase, and BCL2 expression were selected as significant variables in predicting overall survival (OS), while age was excluded in predicting 2-years event-free survival. The prognostic score calculated by the MFP model effectively classifies patients into four risk groups with 5-years OS of 89.91% (low risk), 81.21% (low-intermediate risk), 66.40% (high-intermediate risk), and 37.89% (high risk). We suggest a new prognostic model that is simple and flexible. By using the MFP method, we can incorporate various clinicopathologic factors into a risk stratification system without arbitrary dichotomization.

Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma: 2016 update on diagnosis, risk-stratification, and management.

Project description:Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas are a heterogenous group of T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders involving the skin, the majority of which may be classified as Mycosis Fungoides (MF) or Sézary Syndrome (SS).The diagnosis of MF or SS requires the integration of clinical and histopathologic data.TNMB (tumor, node, metastasis, blood) staging remains the most important prognostic factor in MF/SS and forms the basis for a "risk-adapted," multidisciplinary approach to treatment. For patients with disease limited to the skin, expectant management or skin-directed therapies is preferred, as both disease-specific and overall survival for these patients is favorable. In contrast, patients with advanced-stage disease with significant nodal, visceral, or blood involvement are generally approached with biologic-response modifiers or histone deacetylase inhibitors before escalating therapy to include systemic, single-agent chemotherapy. In highly-selected patients, allogeneic stem-cell transplantation may be considered, as this may be curative in some patients.

Polatuzumab Vedotin: Current Role and Future Applications in the Treatment of Patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a biologically and clinically heterogeneous disease. Despite good responses to standard of care frontline chemoimmunotherapy, the prognosis of relapsed/refractory (R/R) patients remains obscured by the possible inadequate responses to salvage therapy, eligibility for autologous transplantation, age and comorbidities. Polatuzumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate formed by a CD79b antibody conjugated to the highly cytotoxic agent monomethyl auristatin E by means of a cleavable linker. Following significant clinical efficacy in R/R DLBCL, polatuzumab vedotin was granted accelerated Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in combination with bendamustine plus rituximab for patients who have failed at least two prior therapies. Other clinical studies involving polatuzumab vedotin in combination with other therapy regimens are also under evaluation for previously untreated DLBCL patients. In this article, we review the different phases from the preclinical development of polatuzumab vedotin to studies leading to its first approval, and highlight the potential future roles of this molecule in the treatment landscape of DLBCL.

Immunotherapy for Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: Current Landscape and Future Directions.

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a heterogeneous disease. B-cell receptor (BCR) pathway is essential for malignant B-cell growth, survival, and proliferation. Various immune cells, including T-cells and macrophages in the tumor microenvironment (TME) contribute to tumor cell survival and pathogenesis of chemo-resistance. The presence of many targets on the malignant B-cells and in the TME has led to emergence of novel therapeutic agents. Stem cell transplant is the oldest treatment modality leveraging immune system in DLBCL. Subsequently, CD20 targeting monoclonal antibody and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy changed the treatment landscape of DLBCL. Recently, multiple novel immunotherapeutic agents have been added in the armamentarium for the management of DLBCL, and many are under development. In this review article, we will review latest updates of immunotherapeutic agents in the management of DLBCL.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is clinically heterogeneous: 40% of patients respond well to current therapy and have prolonged survival, whereas the remainder succumb to the disease. We proposed that this variability in natural history reflects unrecognized molecular heterogeneity in the tumors. Using DNA microarrays, we have conducted a systematic characterization of gene expression in B-cell malignancies. Here we show that there is diversity in gene expression among the tumors of DLBCL patients, apparently reflecting the variation in tumor proliferation rate, host response and differentiation state of the tumor. We identified two molecularly distinct forms of DLBCL which had gene expression patterns indicative of different stages of B-cell differentiation. One type expressed genes characteristic of germinal center B cells ('germinal center B-like DLBCL'); the second type expressed genes normally induced during in vitro activation of peripheral blood B cells ('activated B-like DLBCL'). Patients with germinal center B-like DLBCL had a significantly better overall survival than those with activated B-like DLBCL. The molecular classification of tumors on the basis of gene expression can thus identify previously undetected and clinically significant subtypes of cancer.

Systematic Review of the Potential of MicroRNAs in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of invasive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). DLBCL presents with variable backgrounds, which results in heterogeneous outcomes among patients. Although new tools have been developed for the classification and management of patients, 40% of them still have primary refractory disease or relapse. In addition, multiple factors regarding the pathogenesis of this disease remain unclear and identification of novel biomarkers is needed. In this context, recent investigations point to microRNAs as useful biomarkers in cancer. The aim of this systematic review was to provide new insight into the role of miRNAs in the diagnosis, classification, treatment response and prognosis of DLBCL patients. We used the following terms in PubMed" (('Non-coding RNA') OR ('microRNA' OR 'miRNA' OR 'miR') OR ('exosome') OR ('extracellular vesicle') OR ('secretome')) AND ('Diffuse large B cell lymphoma' OR 'DLBCL')" to search for studies evaluating miRNAs as a diagnosis, subtype, treatment response or prognosis biomarkers in primary DLBCL in human patient populations. As a result, the analysis was restricted to the role of miRNAs in tumor tissue and we did not consider circulating miRNAs. A total of thirty-six studies met the inclusion criteria. Among them, twenty-one were classified in the diagnosis category, twenty in classification, five in treatment response and nineteen in prognosis. In this review, we have identified miR-155-5p and miR-21-5p as miRNAs of potential utility for diagnosis, while miR-155-5p and miR-221-3p could be useful for classification. Further studies are needed to exploit the potential of this field.

Combination of BCL-2 and MYC protein expression improves high-risk stratification in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Project description:PURPOSE:To evaluate whether the addition of two biological markers (MYC and BCL-2 protein overexpression) improves the stratification of high-risk patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). METHOD:Seven risk factors were identified at diagnosis, and a maximum of 7 points were assigned to each patient. The patients were classified according to four risk groups: low (0-1), low-intermediate (2-3), high-intermediate (4), and high (5-7). Only high-risk patients with DLBCL were included in this analysis. We retrospectively examined 20 cases from 2008 to 2013 at the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital. RESULTS:The median expression of MYC protein was 60%, and 17 of 20 (65%) evaluable cases overexpressed MYC. The median expression of BCL-2 protein was also 60%. Eighteen of 20 (90%) evaluable cases showed BCL-2 overexpression. Additionally, 12 out of 20 cases (60%) demonstrated coexpression of MYC and BCL-2 proteins. The percentages of overall survival and progression-free survival at the median follow-up time (36 months) were 33.3%±16.1% and 16.9%±13.5%, respectively. By comparison, nine, four, and 20 patients were classified as high risk based on the International Prognostic Index (IPI), National Comprehensive Cancer Network(NCCN)-IPI, and revised IPI criteria, respectively. According to the IPI and NCCN-IPI stratification, the risk groups demonstrated closely overlapping survival curves. In addition, four out of 20 cases were identified as low-intermediate risk according to the NCCN-IPI criteria. CONCLUSION:The addition of MYC and BCL-2 protein expression to the IPI could identify a subset of DLBCL patients with high-risk clinicopathological characteristics and poor clinical outcome.
