Chidamide plus prednisone, etoposide, and thalidomide for untreated angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma in a Chinese population: A multicenter phase II trial.

ABSTRACT: Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a common type of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) with a poor prognosis, and an effective first-line therapy is lacking. Chidamide is a selective histone deacetylase inhibitor and has been approved by the China Food and Drug Administration for relapsed or refractory PTCL. We conducted a multicenter phase II clinical trial combining chidamide with prednisone, etoposide, and thalidomide (CPET regimen) for a total of eight cycles in untreated AITL patients in China. The primary objectives were the overall response rate (ORR) and complete remission (CR) rate after eight cycles of the CPET regimen. The secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and safety. Of the 71 enrolled patients, 51 completed the eight cycles of the CPET regimen. The ORR and CR of the 51 patients were 90.2 and 54.9%, respectively. After a median follow-up of 11.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 9.9-17.0), the median PFS of the 51 patients was 42.6 months (95% CI, 27.7-not reached) and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. The 2-year PFS rate and OS rate were 66.5 and 82.2%, respectively. Sixty-eight patients received at least one cycle of CPET regimen and were included as the safety assessment population. The most common grade 3/4 adverse event was neutropenia (n = 22, 32.3%). Twelve patients showed treatment-related infections and recovered from antibiotic therapy; the other adverse events were mostly mild and reversible. The oral CPET regimen is an effective, tolerable, and economical choice for untreated AITL in a Chinese population. This trial was registered in www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT03273452.

Project description:BackgroundAngioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is known for its unfavorable survival prognosis. Chidamide has shown efficacy in relapsed/refractory AITL, but its efficacy in newly diagnosed AITL is uncertain.ObjectiveThis retrospective research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of chidamide when used with doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, prednisone, and vincristine (CHOP) in comparison to CHOP by itself for individuals newly diagnosed with AITL, and to examine the impact of transplantation.MethodThis was an analysis that compared outcomes among patients who received chidamide + CHOP on a clinical trial vs. historical controls who received CHOP alone, enrolling a total of sixty-six treatment-naive AITL patients between April 2014 and November 2022. Among them, thirty-three received chidamide in addition to CHOP (chidamide group), while thirty-three received CHOP alone (control group). The clinical characteristics were balanced between the two groups. All patients were scheduled to undergo up to six courses of treatment before transplantation.ResultsThe chidamide group had a significantly longer median overall survival (OS) compared to the control group, with a median OS that was not reached, as opposed to 20 months in the control group (p = 0.002). In the control group, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 11 months, while in the chidamide group, it was 22 months (p = 0.080). In the high-risk group (IPI ≥ 3), the chidamide group demonstrated notably superior complete response (CR) and overall response rate (ORR) compared to the control cohort (p = 0.002, p = 0.034). The PFS and OS in the chidamide group were not reached, and there were significant differences compared to the control group (p = 0.007, p = 0.003). The median OS of the transplanted group was longer than the non-transplanted group (p = 0.004). On multivariate analysis, chidamide group reduced the hazards of death in the total cohort.ConclusionAs the study was non-random and retrospective, Chidamide combined with chemotherapy should be tested in randomized trials given its potential to improve prognosis in treatment-naive AITL patients. Furthermore, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) has demonstrated enhanced overall survival in individuals with AITL.Clinical trial registrationhttps://clinicaltrials.gov/, NCT03268889.

Project description:ObjectiveChidamide is an oral histone deacetylase subtype-selective inhibitor approved for relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). This phase 1b study evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of chidamide in combination with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (CHOP) for treatment-naïve PTCL patients.MethodsThis study was an open-label, multicenter trial composed of dose escalation and dose expansion. Patients received CHOP for six 21-d cycles and chidamide on d 1, 4, 8 and 11 in each cycle. Four dose levels of chidamide (20, 25, 30 and 35 mg) were evaluated. The primary objective was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination regimen.ResultsA total of 30 patients were evaluated in this study: 15 in the dose-escalation part and 15 in the dose-expansion part. In the dose-escalation study, three patients were enrolled in the 35 mg chidamide cohort. One had dose-limiting toxicity with grade 3 vascular access complications, and one had grade 2 neutropenia with a sustained temperature >38 °C. Dose escalation was stopped at this chidamide dose level. The most common (≥10%) grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) were leukopenia (90.0%), neutropenia (83.3%), vomiting (13.3%), thrombocytopenia (10.0%) and febrile neutropenia (10.0%). No significant changes in chidamide pharmacokinetic properties were observed before and after combination treatment. The objective response rate for the 28 patients evaluable for preliminary efficacy was 89.3% (25/28), with 16 (57.1%) achieving complete response or unconfirmed complete response. The estimated median progression-free survival was 14.0 months. In summary, we chose chidamide 30 mg as the recommended dose for phase 2.ConclusionsThe addition of chidamide to standard CHOP chemotherapy was tolerable with promising preliminary efficacy in previously untreated PTCL patients, which supports further clinical studies with this combination regimen for the frontline treatment of PTCL.
