Clinicogenetic Risk Models in Patients Randomized to Receive Consolidative Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation after Frontline R-CHOP for Advanced F…
2018
Abstract Introduction: Advanced follicular lymphoma (FL) is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disease. About 20% of patients have early progression of disease (POD) and short overall survival (OS). We have previously shown that integration of lymphoma-specific gene mutations and clinical factors improves pretreatment risk stratification (Pastore, 2015) and prediction of early POD (i.e., within 24 months, POD24; Jurinovic, 2016). Recently, we have shown that high-dose therapy (HDT) followed by autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) is an effective treatment option for eligible patients with high-risk disease as defined by POD24 (Jurinovic, 2018). Here, we aimed to explore wheth…
Gene Rearrangements and Other Molecular Features in Aggressive B-Cell Lymphomas of Patients with and without HIV-Infection
2015
Abstract Aggressive B-cell Lymphomas are the second most frequent AIDS-defining cancers. Few studies have compared the molecular characteristics of aggressive B-cell lymphomas in patients with and without HIV-infection; and to our knowledge, there are no reports comparing the incidence of gene rearrangements between the two groups and their impact on outcome in series treated with RCHOP. We retrospectively studied two series of patients with (N=32) and without HIV-infection (N=43) with diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) NOS (75% and 70%, respectively), T-rich DLCBL (13% and 5%), transformed DLBCL (3% and 14%) and double-hit (DH) DLCBL (9% and 11%) [defined by translocations affecting MY…
Effect of Prognostic Risk Classification on Temsirolimus Efficacy and Safety Outcomes in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma
2011
Abstract Abstract 2708 Background: The simplified Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) has been shown to be a good predictor of patient survival (Blood 2008;111:558–65; Blood 2010;115:1530–1533). This post hoc study analyzed data from a randomized, phase III clinical trial investigating temsirolimus (TEM) in relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) in which TEM 175/75 (175 mg for first 3 weeks then 75 mg weekly) demonstrated significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) vs investigator's choice of therapy (INV; 4.8 vs 1.9 months, respectively; hazard ratio [HR]=0.44; P=.0009; J Clin Oncol 2009;27:3822–9). Patients receiving TEM 175/25 (175 mg for first 3 w…
Results of a Phase II Study of Pixantrone in Combination with Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients with Relapsed Aggressive Non-…
2006
Abstract Background: Pixantrone is a novel aza-anthracenedione with less cardiotoxicity and superior activity compared to doxorubicin and mitoxantrone in murine leukemia and lymphoma tumor models. Pixantrone as single agent therapy led to major responses in patients (pts) with multiply relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCL). In a phase I dose-ranging study of pixantrone (80 to 180 mg/m2) replacing doxorubicin (CPOP) in a CHOP-like regimen, the optimal dose (RD) from that study was found to be 150 mg/m2. Methods: In this international, multi-center, phase II study the primary objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of the CPOP…
Ofatumumab (OFA) in Combination with CHOP for Previously Untreated Follicular Lymphoma: Follow-up Results
2012
Abstract Abstract 1632 Background: OFA is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds to both the large and small extracellular loops of CD20. OFA is currently approved for patients (pts) with refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia and has demonstrated activity in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, including follicular lymphoma (FL). We previously reported results of a phase II study of OFA in combination with CHOP (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2, doxorubicin 50 mg/m2, vincristine 1.4 mg/m2, prednisone 100 mg daily for 5 days) chemotherapy (O-CHOP) in pts with previously untreated FL (Czuczman et al. Br J Haematol. 2012;157:438). We now report updated efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) follow-up…
