Abstract LB-017: HSP110 sustains aberrant NFkB signaling in activated B-cell diffuse large B-cell lymphoma through MyD88 stabilization

2017

Abstract Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive lymphoproliferative disorder of B lymphocytes accounting for 30 % of adult Non Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). Among DLBCL, Activated B Cell - DLBCL (ABC-DLBCL) is the most aggressive form and has a poor prognosis. Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperons highly expressed in cancer cells and implicated in resistance to radio- and chemotherapy. Therefore, HSPs are envisioned as therapeutic targets in many cancers. Among the different HSPs, HSP110 has been recently identified as a pro-survival factor in germinal center-derived DLBCL (GC-DLBCL), through stabilization of the GC-DLBCL oncogene Bcl-6. Here, we have explored if HSP1…

Lymphoma occurring in patients over 90 years of age: characteristics, outcomes, and prognostic factors. A retrospective analysis of 234 cases from th…

2013

International audience; BACKGROUND: Lymphoma occurring in patients aged 90 or older is not uncommon, and its incidence is expected to increase over time. Management of these patients is difficult given their underlying fragility and the lack of information regarding this population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 234 patients diagnosed with lymphoma at the age of 90 years or older (90+) between 1990 and 2012 to describe their characteristics, management, outcomes and prognostic factors. RESULTS: The median age was 92 years; 88% were B-cell lymphomas consisting mainly in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The median overall survival (OS) was 7.2 months (range, 0-92 months) for…

ABCL-346: Overall Survival with Tafasitamab + Lenalidomide (LEN) vs Routinely Administered Therapies for ASCT-Ineligible Relapsed or Refractory (R/R)…

2021

Context Tafasitamab+LEN, a chemotherapy-free, novel treatment for R/R DLBCL, demonstrated efficacy in ASCT-ineligible patients in the single-arm Phase II L-MIND study (NCT02399085). Objective To compare outcomes in patients treated with tafasitamab+LEN in the L-MIND study with matched patient populations treated with commonly administered NCCN-/ESMO-recommended therapies for non-transplant-eligible patients with R/R DLBCL in routine clinical practice. Design RE-MIND2 (NCT04150328) is an observational, retrospective cohort study. The L-MIND tafasitamab+LEN cohort was matched with RE-MIND2 patients using estimated propensity score-based 1:1 nearest neighbor matching balanced for nine patient …

Safety and Clinical Activity of Temsirolimus in Combination with Rituximab and DHAP in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymp…

2016

Abstract Purpose. To evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of the combination of the mTOR inhibitor Temsirolimus and a standard salvage regimen (R-DHAP) in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large cell B-Cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods. This is a prospective, multicenter, phase II, open-label study. Patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL with a maximum of two prior treatment lines were eligible. The STORM regimen consisted of Rituximab 375 mg/m² (day 2) and DHAP (Dexamethasone 40mg day 3-6, Cisplatine 100 mg/m² day 3, Cytarabine 2x2 g/m² day 4) with Temsirolimus added on day 1 and 8 of a 21 d cycle, with 2-4 cycles planned. In part I, dose levels of 25, 50, 75 and 100 …

Genome-wide homozygosity and risk of four non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes

2021

Aim: Recessive genetic variation is thought to play a role in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) etiology. Runs of homozygosity (ROH), defined based on long, continuous segments of homozygous SNPs, can be used to estimate both measured and unmeasured recessive genetic variation. We sought to examine genome-wide homozygosity and NHL risk.Methods: We used data from eight genome-wide association studies of four common NHL subtypes: 3061 chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), 3814 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), 2784 follicular lymphoma (FL), and 808 marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) cases, as well as 9374 controls. We examined the effect of homozygous variation on risk by: (1) estimating the fraction o…

Phase 1b/3 study of avelumab-based combination regimens in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL).

2017

TPS7575 Background: Approximately 50% of patients (pts) with advanced DLBCL are refractory to or relapse following first line R-CHOP therapy. Pts with R/R DLBCL have limited treatment options and a poor prognosis. This study assesses immunotherapy-based regimens containing avelumab (a fully human IgG1 anti–PD-L1 antibody) in combination with utomilumab (a novel 4-1BB agonist), azacitidine, rituximab, and/or conventional chemotherapy (CT; bendamustine) in pts with R/R DLBCL. Methods: JAVELIN DLBCL (NCT02951156) is a global, multicenter, randomized, open-label, 2-component(phase 1b followed by phase 3) study of avelumab-based combination regimens in R/R DLBCL. In phase 1b, up to 84 pts will …

Phase 2 study of the bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) antibody blinatumomab in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

2015

Few patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) achieve prolonged disease-free survival. Blinatumomab, a bispecific T-cell engaging antibody construct, transiently links CD3-positive T cells to CD19-positive B cells. This phase 2 study evaluated stepwise (9-28-112 μg/d with weekly dose increases; n = 23) or flat (112 μg/d; n = 2) dosing of blinatumomab by continuous infusion, with dexamethasone prophylaxis, in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL. Patients received a median of 3 prior lines of therapy. Median time since last regimen was 1.5 months. Seventeen patients ended treatment in cycle 1 (induction), 7 in cycle 2 (consolidation), and 1 in retreatment. Am…

Functional characterisation of the first HSP110 inhibitors.

2023

Heat shock proteins are molecular chaperones highly expressed in haematological malignancies. My laboratory has shown that the heat shock protein HSP110 is a new and important therapeutic target In colorectal cancer and in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. As there were no existing inhibitors of HSP110, a screening strategy of a chemical library was carried out and allowed the identification of two molecules capable of specifically inhibiting the chaperone activity of HSP110. My thesis objective was to characterise and functionally validate these newly identified molecules in diffuse large cell B lymphomas. I have shown that one of these molecules limits the interaction of HSP110 with the SYK signall…

Comprehensive geriatric assessment is an essential tool to support treatment decisions in elderly patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: A pros…

2015

We performed a multicenter study to validate the concept that a simple comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) can identify elderly, non-fit patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in whom curative treatment is not better then palliation, and to analyze potential benefits of treatment modulation after further subdividing the non-fit category by CGA criteria. One hundred and seventy-three patients aged > 69 treated with curative or palliative intent by clinical judgement only were grouped according to CGA into fit (46%), unfit (16%) and frail (38%) categories. Two-year overall survival (OS) was significantly better in fit than in non-fit patients (84% vs. 47%; p < 0.0001).…
