Options for first line therapy of Hodgkin lymphoma

Abstract Abstract 2742 Introduction: 90Y Ibritumomab tiuxetan (90Y-IT) has become an efficient alternative to therapy in non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, mainly in elderly patients. The aim of this study is to analyse our updated information of patients treated with 90YIbritumomab/tiuxetan in a prospective study according clinical practice setting and to analyse treatment outcome. Subjects and Methods: 39 non Hodgkin lymphoma patients were included in a clinical protocol conducted by a multidisciplinary team and treated in the same centre. According the inclusion criteria: patients over 65 years old diagnosed as CD20+ NHL with neutrophils ≥ 1,5 × 109/L, platelets ≥ 100 × 109/L, bone marrow lymphocytes CD20+ ≤ 25%. All patients received 0,3 or 0,4 mCi /kg IV (88%) of 90YIbritumomab/tiuxetan and response evaluation was performed 12 weeks after. Period of study: September 2005/July 2012. The 90Y-IT was administered as consolidation of first line therapy (Rituximab alone, R-COP, R-CHOP21) or in relapsed/refractory status. Endpoints: Objective response rate (ORR), time to relapse (PFS) overall survival (OS) and safety. Other clinical prognostic factors were observed to assess their possible influence upon treatment value. Results: Until May 2012, 39 patients had received treatment with 90YIbritumomab/tiuxetan and completed the evaluation protocol and were considered to analysis; M/F 18/21 mean age 72.8 years (65–87); ECOG 0–1 92.3%. According OMS classification: NHL-follicular 27 (69.2%), mantle cell Lymphoma 7 (17.9%), DLBCL 4 (10.3%) and 1MALT (2.6%). Score distribution: low risk 19 (48.7%), intermediate 12 (30.8.2%) and advanced 8 (20.5%). Previous therapy schedules ≤2 (66.7%), >2 (33.3%). The median follow-up time: 42.0 months (95% CI: 4.0; 62.0), mean PFS: 38.1 months (95% CI: 30.8; 45.4) median NR. 13 patients received 90Y-IT as consolidation of first line therapy (33.3%) and 26 relapsed/refractory (66.6%). ORR was 84.6 % CR: 29 (74.3%); PR 4 (10.2%) and 6 failures (15.4%) in relapsed/refractory disease. Mean estimated OS since 90Y-IT: 54.4 months (95% CI: 49.4; 59.3) and mean estimated OS since diagnosis 159 months. Median PFS was NR. The mean PFS for patients in consolidation therapy was 54.2 months (95% CI: 47.4; 61.1). Safety: thrombocytopenia being the most frequent, G3–4 (35.9%), median time to developed haematological toxicity: fourth week, and neutropenia G3–4 (41.0%), the median time to recover normal values was 4.2 and 2.6 weeks respectively. In 5 (12.9%) of patients red blood cell transfusion was required, and 10 platelet transfusions (25.6%). The most frequent non haematological toxicity was asthenia. One patient developed a severe mucositis. Four patients have concomitant associated tumours (colon, breast, lung and prostate) and two patients over 77 years developed a rectum carcinoma after 18 months of 90Y-IT and another prostate and renal tumour after 8 years. Comments: In our experience 90Y Ibritumomab tiuxetan is a safety and effective therapy in patients with NHL over 65 years. According to obtained PFS results, it seems like the use of this kind of therapy as used in early part of therapy offers good and maintained response rate with lower toxicity in this fragile population. The OS in this population was not inferior to observed in younger NHL patients. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Most pediatric patients with Hodgkin lymphoma are cured of their disease with standard combined-modality first-line therapy. Those who relapse are subjected to salvage chemo-radiotherapy, and patients who respond often undergo either autologous or allogeneic HCT, with a reported outcome ranging from 40%-60%. Variables affecting the outcome of such patients are not clearly defined. This study retrospectively reviewed the clinical characteristics and outcome of patients who underwent HCT at our institution. Between 1995 and 2012, 29 pediatric (age <14 years) patients with HL underwent HCT. This cohort included 24 boys and 5 girls. Their median ages at initial diagnosis and at HCT were 9.85 years (mean 8.85; range 3.6-13.75) and 12.18 years (mean 11.24; range 5.6-14.9), respectively. 28 patients had classic HL (23 nodular sclerosis, 3 mixed cellularity, 1 lymphocyte-depleted, and 1 lymphocyte-rich) and one patient had nodular lymphocyte-predominance HL. Ten had persistent/progressive disease following first line therapy, while 19 had relapsed following achievement of complete response (CR). For these patients median time to relapse from completion of first-line therapy was 16.9 months (mean 20.1; range 1.9-53.1). All patients received salvage chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy prior to HCT; fifteen patients achieved CR, 13 had a partial response and one had progressive disease. Two patients had allogeneic bone marrow (BM) grafts from matched-related donors, while the rest had autologous grafts (16 BM; 10 PBSC; 1 BM+PBSC) following chemotherapy-based myeloablative conditioning. Twelve patients have relapsed/progressed post-HCT at a median of 6.04 months (mean 11.8; range 1.02-71.4). Nine patients have died; eight because of disease progression and one due to sepsis post HCT. Only two patients died within the first 100 days post HCT, giving a Day-100 mortality rate of 6.8%. Two patients who relapsed after HCT were salvaged with chemo/radiotherapy and remain disease free 2.8 and 9.7 years later. The 5-year estimated overall survival (OS) from HCT for the whole cohort is 61.6%, with an event free survival (EFS) of 57.9%. Patients who had persistent/progressive disease at the end first-line therapy or relapsed <6months off therapy had a worse OS and EFS as compared to those who relapsed later (OS 42.9% v. 75.3%, p=0.047 [Taron-Ware]; EFS 41.7% v. 60.8%, p=0.052 [Taron-Ware]). The outcome of patients with relapsed/refractory HL following HCT is encouraging, as a majority of patients survive free of their lymphoma. Timing of relapse/progression remains an important prognostic factor and patients who fail early may be considered for novel therapeutic approaches.
