CD70 Expression in Mature T-Cell Lymphomas

Abstract Introduction Mature T-cell lymphomas (TCLs) represent about 15% of the non-Hodgkin lymphomas in U.S. and are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms. TCLs usually have poor outcomes and are resistant to conventional chemotherapy regimens. Therefore, there is a need for identifying biomarkers that could translate into effective novel treatments. CD70 is the TNF superfamily ligand of CD27 and it is being explored as a potential target in CAR-T therapy against TCLs and other neoplasms. Although CD70 expression has been documented in TCL cell lines, thus providing a potential rationale for its use as a therapeutic target, the expression of CD70 among the most frequent TCL subtypes in patient samples has not been previously evaluated. Methods Patients with de novo and/or relapsed mature TCLs diagnosed between 01/2010 and 06/2020 and with available tissue sections were included in the study. The assessment of CD70 expression was performed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) using a novel proprietary antibody developed by CRISPR Therapeutics. CD70 expression was scored using % of expression, intensity (negative, +1, +2, and +3) and H-score {H-score = [(%positive cells intensity 1+) x 1] + [(%positive cells intensity 2+) x 2] + [(%positive cells intensity 3+) x 3]} in neoplastic cells (Figure 1). Clinicopathologic characteristics were collected retrospectively and included age, sex, staging, biopsy site, WHO pathologic classification, immunophenotype, presence of other malignancies, treatment status, disease progression/relapsed, and follow-up. These characteristics were compared with CD70 expression using ANOVA or non-parametric analysis. Overall-survival (OS) was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log-rank. A p< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results One hundred thirty-six patient samples representing the major subtypes of the 4 categories of mature TCLs were included [nodal TCLs (n=64; including PTCL Th1, and Th2 subtypes and angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma - AITL), extranodal (n=35; including primary intestinal lymphomas), cutaneous (n=24; including mycosis fungoides (MF) with large cell transformation), and leukemic (n=13; including adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma)]. Most patients were male (58.8%), in the 6 th or 7 th decade (47.1%), with advanced stage IV (55.7%), no previous malignancies (69.9%) and previously treated (57.2%); 59 of which (88%) received two or more lines of treatment. The median expression of CD70 was 40% (ranged from 0 to 100%) and the median H-score was 110 (ranged from 0 to 300) and was significantly higher (p= 0.006) in peripheral T-cell lymphoma, NOS, primary cutaneous TCLs (non-mycosis fungoides), and AITL (180, 150, and 150, respectively) (Figure 1). The expression of CD70 was more frequent in nodal and extranodal subtypes (including skin), compared to leukemic TCLs (p= 0.005). The expression of CD70 was associated with advanced age at the diagnosis (p= 0.003), CD2 expression (p= 0.01), CD3 expression (p= 0.001), CD16 negativity (p= 0.03), and absence of ALK-1 expression (p= 0.005). After a median follow-up of 19 months (range: 1 - 300 months), 42% of the patients died of disease. The median OS was 76 months (CI95, 38.5 - 113.4 months) and it was not associated with CD70 expression. Conclusions CD70 was highly expressed in most mature TCLs and it was negative in most ALK-positive ALCL. Its expression was associated with nodal and extranodal subtypes, advanced age, expression of CD2, CD3, and negativity for CD16. Therefore, CD70 can be used as a potential biomarker and a target in clinical trials of patients with mature TCLs. Figure 1 Figure 1.

T Cell Lymphomas

Abstract Background: Peripheral T-Cell lymphomas (PTCLs) constitute approximately 10% of lymphoid malignancies and consist of several distinct entities based on pathologic and clinical characteristics. With the exception of a few subtypes (e.g., ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and some primary cutaneous or leukemic forms of PTCL), a majority of PTCLs are aggressive as characterized by poor treatment response, rapid disease progression and poor overall survival. We have shown that landmark timepoints of event-free survival after diagnosis can stratify subsequent overall survival (OS) in diffuse large B-cell and follicular lymphoma. Here we evaluate this approach in newly diagnosed aggressive PTCLs treated with anthracyline-based or related chemotherapy. Methods. Newly diagnosed PTCL patients were prospectively enrolled in the University of Iowa/Mayo Clinic Lymphoma SPORE Molecular Epidemiology Resource (MER) from 2002-2012. Clinical data were abstracted from medical records using a standard protocol. For this analysis, we included patients receiving anthracycline-based or other multiagent chemotherapy for the following PTCL subtypes: ALK-negative ALCL (N=24); angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL, N=34); PTCL, not otherwise specified (NOS; N=60); enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL, N=8); extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTL, N=11); and hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL, N=1). Patients were prospectively followed, and event-free survival (EFS) was defined as time from diagnosis to progression, re-treatment, or death due to any cause. Landmark EFS timepoints were assessed at 12 (EFS12) and 24 (EFS24) months after the date of diagnosis. Subsequent OS was defined as time from a specific endpoint (diagnosis, event or EFS landmark). Replication was performed in a population-based cohort of T-cell lymphomas diagnosed from 2000-2009 from the Swedish Lymphoma Registry. Results. 138 eligible patients were enrolled in the MER from 2002-2012, the median age at diagnosis was 58 years (range, 19-88), 66% were male, 73% had Stage III-IV disease, and 33% had IPI 0-1. At a median follow-up of 47 months (range 11-120), 87 patients (63%) had an event and 70 patients (51%) had died. From diagnosis, only 60 patients were event-free at 12 months (EFS12 45%). Patients who failed to achieve EFS12 had a poor subsequent OS from event (median OS = 6.8 months, 95% CI: 5.3-14.0, figure 1). In contrast, patients who achieved EFS12 had a favorable subsequent OS (median unreached, figure 2). Of the 427 eligible patients in the Swedish registry, the median age at diagnosis was 66 years (range, 18-88), 63% were male, 68% had Stage III-IV disease, and 25% had IPI 0-1. PTCL subtypes were: ALK-negative ALCL (N=89); AITL (N=80); PTCL, NOS (N=183); EATL (N=44); ENKTL (N=24); and HSTCL (N=7). At a median follow-up of 86 months (range 40-158), 333 patients (79%) had an event and 316 patients (74%) had died. From diagnosis, 183 patients were event-free at 12 months (EFS12 44%). Similar to the MER cohort, Swedish patients failing EFS12 had poor subsequent survival (median OS = 3.7 months, 95% CI: 2.9-5.3, figure 1). Swedish patients achieving EFS12 had a favorable subsequent OS (median OS = 89 months, figure 2). Similar results were obtained when conducting landmark analysis at 24 months after diagnosis (EFS24). Conclusion. Relapse and re-treatment events within the first 12 months of diagnosis are associated with very poor OS in PTCL treated with anthracyclines or related chemotherapy, while patients achieving EFS12 have encouraging subsequent OS. Stratifying patients into prognostically distinct subsets using EFS12 may help focus biologic and biomarker studies. EFS12 has potential as an early endpoint for studies of newly diagnosed PTCL. Further investigation of determinants related to post-EFS12 survival is needed. Disclosures Maurer: Kite Pharma: Research Funding. Cerhan:Kite Pharma: Research Funding.

T Cell Lymphomas

Introduction While the approved dose of brentuximab in T cell lymphomas has been every 3 weeks on a 1.8 mg/kg schedule, earlier studies exploring weekly dosing showed that a dose of 1.2 mg/kg on a weekly dosing (every 3 out of 4 weeks) in pts with Hodgkin's lymphoma and hematologic malignancies may improve cancer response rates while still having manageable side effects3. We explored the weekly dosing schedule in 37 pts (pts) with mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome (MF/SS) and aggressive T cell lymphomas and compared to our experience with every 3 week dosing in 36 pts to evaluate tolerability and efficacy of the weekly schedule.. Methods We reviewed charts of 67 pts, 36 received dosing q 3 weeks and 37 received a dose weekly for 3 consecutive weeks on a 4-week schedule. Pts included MF/SS (n=35), gamma delta T cell lymphoma (n=2), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (n=12), Peripheral T cell Lymphoma (n=10), angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (n=4), adult T cell leukemia (n=2), and NK-T cell lymphoma. Pts were treated with brentuximab vedotin at a dose of either 1.8 mg/kg every 3 weeks or 1.2 mg/kg weekly x 3 every 4 weeks. CD30 expression was scored by the pathologist in tumor biopsies as high (<50%), low (5-10%), or intermediate (>10%-49%). Toxicity data was recorded from the medical records and data analyzed descriptively. Results Of 67 pts in this study, the average age was 61. Doses were 1.8 mg/kg for the q 3 week schedule and 0.75 to 1.2 mg/kg for the weekly x 3 schedule. Cycles were 3-47 for q 3 weeks and 1-9.7 for weekly dosing. CD30 expression was high in 13% of pts, low in 43%, and absent in 6% with equal distribution between the weekly and q 3 week cohorts, as shown in Table 1. Dose adjustments were made in 67% of q 3 week and 61% of weekly pts for neurotoxicity (n=28), with a higher incidence in the q 3 week pts compared to those with weekly dosing (75% vs 53%, p=0.01) . Discontinuation for progression (25% vs 30%) was similar for both groups. In the weekly group, 8 pts had a stem cell transplant, including allogeneic transplantation in 3. Conclusion In the Phase II registration trial of brentuximab vedotin 1.8 mg/kg q3 weeks, 41% of pts had neuropathy (severe in 12%). 1 Forty two percent of discontinuations were for neuropathy. In our weekly schedule, incidence of neuropathy was lower and led to fewer treatment discontinuations. Our retrospective data shows that Brentuximab vedotin is well tolerated on a weekly dosing schedule and has activity in pts with MF/SS and aggressive T cell lymphomas. As in prior studies, responses were seen with low CD30 expression4, 5. Prospective clinical trials with a self-reported neurotoxicity scale and quality of life instruments should be performed address the impact of more frequent, lower doses of brentuximab vedotin on patient outcomes. 1 Pro B, Advani R, Brice P, Bartlett NL, Rosenblatt JD, Illidge T et al.J Clin Oncol 2012; 30(18): 2190-2196. doi: 10.1200/JCO.2011.38.0402 2 Prince HM, Kim YH, Horwitz SM, Dummer R, Scarisbrick J, Quaglino P et al.Lancet 2017; 390(10094): 555-566. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(17)31266-7 3 Fanale MA, Forero-Torres A, Rosenblatt JD, Advani RH, Franklin AR, Kennedy DA et al.Clin Cancer Res 2012; 18(1): 248-255. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-11-1425 4 Duvic M, Tetzlaff MT, Gangar P, Clos AL, Sui D, Talpur R.

Breast Malignancies

Background. Malignant lymphomas of the breast are rare and can be primary or secondary. Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma involving the breast is even rarer comprising 0.04-0.5% of all breast malignancies (Takemura). The incidence is even lower for T-cell lymphomas compared with B-cell subtype. We report the rare incidence of primary T-cell lymphoma involving both breast and ipsilateral axilla. Case. This is the case of an 80-year-old female who initially presented with asymmetry of her right breast. Initial mammograms were inconclusive. MRI could not be performed due to the patient’s severe claustrophobia. The patient was then lost to follow-up but re-presented with a new palpable density in the same breast. Subsequent mammogram showed a suspicious lesion with suspicious right axillary lymphadenopathy. Core biopsy was consistent with T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder involving both the breast and the axilla. She was then referred to medical oncology for management. Conclusion. Although rare, lymphoproliferative disorders of the breast can be encountered during workup for suspicious breast lesions. It is imperative that the surgeon is aware of this rare diagnosis to facilitate appropriate therapeutic intervention.

T Cell Lymphomas

Abstract T-cell lymphoma is the special malignant type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The diagnosis and the treatment were usually troublesome for physician in clinical practice. We retrospectively reviewed 63 cases of T-cell lymphomas from 360 cases of lymphomas in our hospital during the period from January 2000 to July 2006. This study is to determine the clinicopathological characteristics of T cell lymphomas. The patients were reclassified according to the World Health Organization classification system. Clinical data, including age, gender, clinical staging, and follow-up, were scrutinized. The median follow-up duration was 5 months (range 21days to 36 months). There were slightly more males than females (36 versus 27), and the median age at the onset were 40 years (range 13 to 77 years). The major subtype was peripheral T-cell lymphoma, which accounted for 78% (49/63). Besides, there were 5 cases of anaplastic T large cell lymphoma, 3 lymphoblastic lymphoma, 2 T/NK-cell lymphoma, 2 angioimmunoblastic lymphoma, 1 mycosis fungoides and 1 pre-T cell lymphoma. The most common manifestation was fever, which accounted for 60% (38/63). 27% (17/63) patients presented with obvious enlargement of lymphonodes. Other manifestation included skin rash or phymata, pruritus, jaundice, abdominal pain, rhinorrhagia, puffiness, diarrhea, hoarseness and ulcus. Interestingly, we found that only 32% obvious enlarged lymphonodes could be confirmed by physical examination, hepatomegaly 33% and Splenomegaly 44% respectively. Besides, there were several significant laboratory findings: 40% cases had cytopenia of at least 2 cell lines, 68% had high level of LDH, 70% had elevated β2-microglobulin and 68% were detected T-cell receptor (TCR) and immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) gene rearrangement. Furthermore, 53% (33/63) patients had bone marrow involvement at the onset and 27% were diagnosed only by bone marrow biopsy. We also observed 20 cases of lymphoma associated hemophagocytic syndromes (LAHS). The median age for this disease was 37 year. The median life span was 39 days (range 21days to 10 months). The initial manifestations included fever (19/20), splenohepatomegaly (18/20), and cytopenias in all patients. Only 15% patients had enlargement of lymphonodes, which was suggested to be infrequent in LAHS. Immatural T-cell infiltration in bone marrow was detected in 75% (15/20) cases. Chromosome disorder of [der(21)(p11), −22] was detected in 3 cases. We also found that 2 cases which underwent plasmapheresis got much better after chemotherapy. 19 cases were under our follow-up. 17 patients could not survival longer than 6 months. The 6-month overall survival (OS) for LAHS was merely 2 of all 20. Furthermore, nobody survived more than 1 year, which indicated the poor prognosis of LAHS. There were 11 out of 63 cases had received trial chemotherapy including liposomal Doxorubicin, L-asparaginase, velcade, autologous bone marrow transplantation, or plasmapheresis before chemotherapy. The median survival time prolonged obviously from 2 months up to 8 months, which suggested the encouraging efficiency of these methods.

Abstract Abstract 5213 Background: CD8-positive primary cutaneous T cell lymphomas (CTCL) are rare disorders and mainly include primary cutaneous CD8-positive aggressive epidermotropic cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma (AECTL) and CD8+ variant mycosis fungoides (MF). In contrast to primary cutaneous CD8+ AECTL, which frequently exhibits strikingly aggressive and unfavorable clinical behavior, CD8+ MF shows debatable clinical course, from an indolent to aggressive behavior. As previously reported, the indolent subtype CD8+ MF occur more frequently in pediatric group, while both clinical subtypes have been observed in adults. Albeit single case studies or small case series have been reported in the literature, it still lacks a large scale of study to enlighten the clinicopathological aspects of CD8+ primary CTCLs, in order to develop the appropriate therapeutic strategies. This study aims to retrospectively review these two entities to demonstrate their clinicopathologic characteristics and to correlate them with the clinical outcome. Design: The hematopathology files from H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center & Research Institute (PATHNET) and Tianjian Cancer Research Institute were retrieved. The patients with a primary diagnosis of CD8 expressing primary CTCLs, diagnosed and treated between January 2004 and June 2011, were included. Cutaneous involvement by systemic peripheral T-cell lymphoma, primary cutanous gamma delta T-cell lymphoma, and subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma were excluded. The corresponding patient demographics, laboratory datas, therapeutic strategies and the clinical outcomes were reviewed. All available histology slides, along with all of the ancillary study results were reviewed and correlated with the clinical outcome. Results: Total of 10 cases were included based on the confirmed histomorphological diagnosis. Cases were divided into two groups: 1) CD8+ MF (n=5) and 2) CD8+ non-MF (n=5) including 2 cases with definitive diagnosis of AECTL and 3 cases diagnosed as CD8-positive primary cutaneous T cell lymphoma, not further classifiable. Clinicopathological characteristics including patients' demographic data, diagnosis, site of involvement, treatment, duration of follow up and clinical outcomes are summarized in table 1. The overall survival time for CD8+CTCLs, non-MF type (excluding 1 patient with lost follow up) varied from 5 to 90 months (averaging 20.5 months) while it was shorter in CD8+ MF, 12.6 months (5 to 23 months). Of note, 1 patient with AECTL expired shortly after diagnosis, within 3 months, however; the other one received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) and has been alive up to date. Conclusion: CD8-positive CTCLs remain a diagnostic challenge. CD8+ MF in adults exhibit dual growth patterns: localized or systemically disseminated disease. The latter could have a very short median overall survival regardless of the aggressive therapies. Allo-HSCT might be beneficial to those with AECTL. Larger series of CD8+ MF should be investigated for molecular gene profiling in order to establish genetic, molecular and phenotypic parameters not only to separate the indolent form from the aggressive subtype, but also to distinguish it from primary cutaneous CD8-positive AECTL.

Somatic Alterations

Abstract Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders arising from mature T-cells. Among them, PTCL-not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) is a diagnosis of exclusion, comprising the largest fraction of PTCL with a diverse underlying pathogenesis. Recently, the concept of nodal T-cell lymphomas with T-follicular helper (TFH) phenotype, including angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) and PTCL-NOS that manifests a TFH phenotype, has been proposed, a distinguishing feature of which is the high frequency of TET2, IDH2, DNMT3A, and RHOA(G17V) mutations. Although recent large-scale genetic studies have uncovered mutational landscapes of several other subtypes of PTCLs, such as cutaneous T-cell lymphoma and adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), the entire picture of somatic alterations in PTCL-NOS still remains elusive. In addition, their similarities and differences among various histological subtypes in PTCLs have not been fully elucidated. To address this issue, we initially analyzed our and publicly available whole-exome/genome as well as transcriptome sequencing data from PTCL-NOS and other related PTCLs. Then, we carried out an extensive investigation of somatic mutations and structural variations (SVs) in PTCL-NOS using targeted-capture sequencing of 118 PTCL-NOS samples. Consistent with previous reports, TET2 (35%) was the most frequently mutated gene in PTCL-NOS with the majority (78%) affected by multiple mutations, followed by RHOA (25%), TP53 (16%), KMT2C (12%), PLCG1 (12%), and HLA-B (11%). Besides them, a considerable proportion of patients harbored mutations in components of T-cell receptor (TCR) /NF-κB pathway (such as PRKCB, CARD11, IRF4, and PRDM1), other signal transduction molecules (STAT3, NOTCH1, and SOCS1), chemokine receptors (CCR4 and CCR7), epigenetic modifiers (CREBBP, KDM6A, IDH2, and DNMT3A), transcriptional regulators (GATA3 and TBL1XR1), and molecules associated with immune evasion (HLA-A, HLA-B, FAS, B2M, and CD58). In addition to deteriorating SVs involving frequently affected genes (TP53, FAS, GATA3, and TBL1XR1), we discovered several genes almost exclusively affected by SVs, including TP73, IKZF2, and NFKB2, and CD274. Novel targets of recurrent mutation were also identified, including PDCD1, YTHDF2, and LRP1B, which were frequently targeted by nonsense and frameshift mutations distributed throughout the entire genes. Among them, PDCD1encodes PD-1 receptor transmitting an inhibitory signal from PD-L1 and PD-L2 ligands in T cells, and its loss of function seems to enable tumor cells to escape from the suppression by this negative signal. Although the roles of YTHDF2, a reader protein of N6-methyladenosine, and LRP1B, a member of the low density lipoprotein receptor family, in T cells are not immediately apparent, these findings shed light on a new biological function of these genes. Next, we investigated the co-existence relationship between frequently altered genes in PTCL-NOS. Interestingly, mutations characteristic of TFH lymphomas (TET2, RHOA, IDH2, and DNMT3A) tended to co-occur in a subset of PTCL-NOS cases, whereas they were almost mutually exclusive with mutations in TP53 and TCR/NF-κB pathway genes. This observation reveals the molecular distinction between TFH and non-TFH lymphomas in PTCL-NOS: the former is similar to AITL, although TET2 mutations did not show higher allelic burden than RHOA and IDH2mutations. In contrast, the latter is at least partly characterized by the genetic alterations shared with ATL. In summary, our findings illuminate the landscape of somatic alterations in PTCL-NOS and provide a novel insight into their genetic and molecular heterogeneity, which would help us to exploit a new therapeutic strategy to combat this disease.

Long Term Follow Up

Background: Mature T cell and NK cell neoplasms collectively known as peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) comprise 15-20% of Non-Hodgkin lymphomas in adults and have a poor prognosis with a 5-year survival of less than 30% for the most aggressive subtypes. Allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT) is offered to eligible patients as a potentially curative modality in the salvage setting or in high risk patients to consolidate an initial response to frontline therapy. There are few studies that report clinical outcomes derived from large sample size and long-term follow up data. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 87 consecutive patients with PTCL including transformed mycosis fungoides and NK/T-cell lymphoma without prior autologous transplant who underwent allo-HCT at City of Hope from January 2000 to June 2018 after IRB approval was obtained. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize baseline patient demographic, treatment, and disease characteristics. Kaplan-Meier curves and the log-rank test were used to evaluate the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Cumulative incidences of time to relapse and time to non-relapse mortality (NRM) were calculated with relapse and NRM as competing risks. Cumulative incidences of acute and chronic GVHD were calculated as time to onset of GVHD with relapse and death as competing events for GVHD. Results: 87 patients were included for the analysis. Median age at the time of allo-HCT was 49 years (range 2-70 years). Histologies were PTCL-NOS (n=21); transformed CTCL (n=19); NK T-cell lymphoma (n=17); AITL (n=15), ALCL (n=7); gamma delta T-cell lymphoma (n=6) and other rare subtypes (n=2). None of the patients had a prior auto transplant. 42 patients (48%) received myeloablative conditioning, with the majority of patients receiving FTBI based conditioning (n=39) and three patients received BEAM regimen for conditioning. 45 patients (52%) received reduced intensity conditioning; fludarabine/melphalan based-conditioning was the most common regimen used (n=39). Sibling HCT was performed in 47 patients (54%), while MUD HCT was performed in 36 patients (41%) with fully matched HLA unrelated donor in 15 (17%) and HLA mismatched in 21 (24%) patients; 4 (5%) received haploidentical HCT. GVHD prophylaxis consisted of tacrolimus/sirolimus (n=54), tacrolimus/sirolimus/MTX (n=11), tacrolimus or cyclosporine/MTX (n=7), tacrolimus or cyclosporine/MMF (n=7), post-transplant cyclophosphamide/tacrolimus/MMF (n=5) and other (n=3). Source of stem cells was PBSC in 77 (88%), bone marrow in 5 (6%), and cord blood in 5 (6%) patients. At the time of allo-HCT, there were a total of 25 (29%) patients in complete remission (CR1 n=15, CR2+ n=10), 25 (29%) patients in partial remission 22 (25%) with induction failure and 14 (16%) with relapsed disease. The median follow-up among survivors was 6.9 years (range 1.1-15.5). The 5- and 10-year PFS was 47% (95% CI: 36%-58%) and 38% (95% CI: 26%-50%), respectively. The 5- and 10-year OS was 53% (95% CI: 41%-63%) and 42% (95% CI: 29%-54%), respectively (Fig.1). Relapses at 5 and 10 years were both 24% (95% CI: 16%-34%), while NRM at 5 and 10 years was 28% (95% CI: 19%-39%) and 37% (95% CI: 25%-50%), respectively. At day 100 after allo-HCT, the rates of acute GVHD grade II-IV were 41% (95% CI: 30%-51%) and grade III-IV of 16% (95%CI: 9%-25%). Chronic GVHD rates at 3 years were 62% (95% CI: 51%-72%), with extensive GVHD of 55% (95% CI: 44%-65%). On univariate analysis, age (> 60 or not), sex, TBI-based conditioning, donor type (MSD vs MUD), stem cell source or remission status prior to allo-HCT did not predict for overall survival in our study. Conclusions: Our results constitute the largest reported single-institution series with a long-term follow-up on allo-HCT outcomes in patients with aggressive T-cell NHL. The 5-year PFS and OS of 47 and 53%, respectively, are encouraging for the high-risk T-cell NHL patients with limited treatment options.

Introduction T-cell lymphoma is a group of heterogeneous diseases with various clinical behaviors and treatment outcomes, representing 10-15% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Owing to its rarity and heterogeneity, the standard treatment approach for T-cell lymphoma is still not established. Accordingly, conventional chemotherapy regimens adapted from B-cell lymphoma treatment has been used for T-cell lymphoma. However, their outcome is still not satisfactory, and there are limited data representing the real-world situation in terms of clinical features and treatment outcomes. Given the incidence of T-cell lymphoma is relatively higher in Asian than Western countries; a comprehensive registry study focusing on Asian patients with T-cell lymphoma could be helpful for better understanding of T-cell lymphoma as well as the development of more effective treatment strategy. Methods We performed a multi-national, multi-center, prospective registry study for patients with T-cell lymphoma and enrolled patients between 01-March-2016 and 31-January-2019. All patients received chemotherapy with curative intent after diagnosis, and were pathologically diagnosed with T-cell lymphoma according to the 2008 World Health Organization classification of lymphoid neoplasms. Patients belonged to any one of following clinical situations could be enrolled: (1) newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve patients; (2) patients who started treatment or completed treatment; (3) relapsed or refractory patients. After we enrolled the planned number of patients (n = 500), we analyzed clinical features and treatment outcomes. Results Out of 500 patients enrolled from nine Asian countries (Korea, China, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia, Bangladeshi, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Philippines), 490 patients were analyzed because 10 patients with insufficient information were excluded. The median age was 59 years (range, 20-85), male patients (59%) were predominant compared to female patients (41%). Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) was the most common (28%) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) was the second common (24%). Peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not-otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS, 20%) and ALK+/- anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL, 16%) were also major subtypes of T-cell lymphoma. The proportion of stage IV was 40%, however, the distribution of stage was different between ENKTL and nodal T-cell lymphomas such as PTCL-NOS. The CHOP (Cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) or CHOP-like regimens accounted for the mainstay of primary treatment for nodal T-cell lymphoma whereas non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy regimens such as SMILE (steroid, methotrexate, ifosfamide, L-asparaginase, and etoposide) and GemOx-L (gemcitabine, oxaliplatin, and L-asparagainase) were mainly used for ENKTL. The overall survival of ENKTL was not significantly different from that of PTCL-NOS, AITL and ALK+/- ALCL. Conclusions Our study showed the distribution of T-cell lymphoma subtypes and tumor burdens at the time of diagnosis in Asian countries. Although clinical features of ENKTL are different from that of nodal T-cell lymphomas consisting of PTCL-NOS, AITL and ALK+/- ALCL, and the different types of treatment were used, survival outcome of patients were not significantly different. This finding might be associated with improved treatment outcomes of ENKTL compared to the past. However, considering a substantial number of patients experienced treatment failure in patients with PTCL-NOS as well as ENKTL, more effective treatment strategy should be warranted.

Background: Central nervous system (CNS) involvement by peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a rare condition. Among primary CNS lymphomas, only 2% are secondary to PTCL, while the risk of CNS relapse in all cases of PTCL is estimated at 2% to 6%. Little is known about the presentation and outcomes of PTCL patients with CNS involvement given the rarity of this entity. In this study, we describe patient characteristics, histology, and clinical course of patients with CNS involvement by PTCL. Methods: The Mayo Clinic Lymphoma Database was used to identify PTCL patients with primary or secondary CNS involvement seen at our institution between 2000 and 2018. A total of 12 patients were identified and their medical records were reviewed for patient and disease characteristics, CNS-directed treatment modality, and outcomes. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for time-to-event analysis. Results: The median age at CNS diagnosis was 63 years (range 41 to 76) and 11 (93%) patients were male. The histological diagnoses were PTCL, NOS in 9 (75%) patients, enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma in 2 (17%) patients, and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma in 1 (8%) patient. Five patients presented with primary T-cell CNS lymphoma (all with a PTCL, NOS histology), while the remaining 7 (58%) patients also had systemic involvement. All patients presented with neurologic symptoms at the time of CNS involvement diagnosis including: focal motor deficits in 6 patients (unilateral upper extremity weakness, gait impairments, and hemiparesis), cognitive decline in 5 patients (memory impairments, reduced attention, and confusion), headache in 4 patients, and seizure in 3 patients. The CNS disease location included the brain parenchyma in 9 (75%) patients, leptomeninges in 1 (8%) patient, and lumbar plexus in 1 (8%) patient. One patient (8%) had positive CSF finding only without radiologic evidence of involvement. CSF analysis was performed in 11 patients. Elevated protein levels were noted in 3 (27%) patients, malignant cells in 2 (18%), and no clear abnormalities in the remaining 6 (55%) patients. Concomitant bone marrow involvement was seen in only 1 patient. Elevated LDH was seen in 2 patients. The a median LDH was 195 U/L (range 139 to 4,360) The most common CNS-directed therapies were: high-dose methotrexate (MTX)-based regimens in 8 (67%) patients, including high-dose MTX in combination with temozolomide (n=2), or cytarabine and thiotepa (n=2). Intrathecal MTX, temozolomide and dexamethasone, lenalidomide, high-dose steroids, and surgical resection were the treatment modality used for one patient each. At a median follow up of 18 months, eight (75%) out of 12 patients were not alive at the time of last follow up. The median overall survival (OS) from diagnosis was 16 months (95% CI: 2.8-173). The median progression free survival (PFS) from initiation of CNS-directed therapy was 9 months (95% CI: 1.6-33) (figure). Four patients had a PFS longer than 12 months. These 4 patients were treated with: temozolomide/dexamethasone, high-dose MTX, lenalidomide, and high-dose MTX followed by cytarabine/thiothepa. Conclusion: CNS involvement by T-cell lymphoma is a rare complication that carries a poor prognosis. Early onset of neurologic symptoms should trigger prompt investigation of CNS involvement. Despite the short OS and PFS, some patients may achieve a relatively longer disease free interval.

Introduction: In the phase 3 ECHELON-2 study (NCT01777152), treatment with brentuximab vedotin (BV) + cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (A+CHP) demonstrated significantly longer progression-free and overall survival compared with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) in the frontline (FL) treatment of patients with systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma (sALCL) or other CD30-expressing peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL). This study supported the November 2018 US FDA approval of A+CHP as FL therapy for adults with sALCL or other CD30-expressing PTCL. The current analysis describes patient characteristics, PTCL subtypes, and supportive care use of FL A+CHP and CHOP outside of the clinical trial setting in the US. Methods: Using medical and pharmacy claims data in the Symphony Health Solutions database, a retrospective cohort analysis of patients with PTCL treated with FL A+CHP or CHOP was conducted to compare treatment and utilization characteristics. Patients ≥18 years with 1 inpatient or 2 outpatient ICD-9/10 PTCL diagnosis codes, newly initiated on A+CHP or CHOP (index date) between November 2018 and January 2020, and with ≥6 months continuous activity before and ≥3 months after the index date were included. To adjust for confounding factors, a 1:1 propensity score matching analysis was performed based on age, gender, baseline comorbidities, geographic region and length of follow-up. Results: A total of 755 patients met inclusion criteria (335 A+CHP; 420 CHOP) with a median follow-up period of 10.1 and 10.6 months, respectively. In the unmatched cohorts, 61% were male, and median age at index was 62 and 69 years for A+CHP and CHOP, respectively. The prevalence of comorbidities based on the Charlson Comorbidity Index was similar between the cohorts; prevalent conditions included diabetes, chronic pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure, and liver disease (Table 1). PTCL subtypes treated with A+CHP included sALCL (54%), PTCL-not otherwise specified (NOS; 27%), and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL; 13%); subtypes treated with CHOP included PTCL-NOS (35%), adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL; 35%), and AITL (11%) (Table 2). After matching, the proportion of patients who received granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF; A+CHP: 91%, CHOP: 86%, p=0.1) and the incidence rate of neutropenia (A+CHP: 45%, CHOP: 42%, p=0.4) during FL treatment for both study cohorts was similar. Of patients who received G-CSF, the majority received it as primary prophylaxis given within the first 5 days of FL treatment initiation (A+CHP: 89%, CHOP: 85%, p=0.2). The rate of subsequent therapy (ie, therapy change after FL), was similar between A+CHP and CHOP (18% vs 21%; p=0.3) and for the sALCL subtype (16% vs 26%, p=0.2). Of the A+CHP patients who received subsequent therapy, 32% were retreated with a BV-containing regimen and 19% of CHOP patients received a BV-containing regimen. Conclusions: In this real-world analysis, US patients with PTCL newly initiated on A+CHP or CHOP were older (67 vs 58 years) than those in ECHELON-2. There was a high comorbidity burden; over half of the patients in both cohorts had 1+ comorbidities, a potential reflection of the older population. As would be expected due to a high rate of CD30-positivity in the disease, A+CHP was more commonly used than CHOP in sALCL. In PTCL subtypes in which CD30 is more variably expressed, A+CHP and CHOP were used with similar frequencies. Although clinical trials in ATLL have demonstrated improved outcomes with more complex and intensive regimens than CHOP, CHOP remains commonly used in ATLL. A+CHP was also used in PTCL subtypes not included in ECHELON-2, such as NK/T cell lymphomas. G-CSF was used as primary prophylaxis in the large majority of patients in both cohorts. The use of a BV-containing regimen as subsequent therapy was more common in A+CHP vs CHOP, probably because the tumors of A+CHP patients were more likely to have expressed CD30. Confounding by unmeasured characteristics cannot be ruled out due to inherent limitations in claims data (eg, lack of disease stage, CD30 testing and response outcomes). Characteristics and management of this real-world population with PTCL differed from those in the ECHELON-2 trial, demonstrating the importance of retrospective studies to assess the impact of new regimens on clinical practice and to identify areas for further education of practitioners.
