Abstract Background: Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) has already been detected in various carcinomas. In non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), however, the prognostic value of PD-L1 overexpression remains unclear.Methods: A meta-analysis of 2,321 NHL patients from 12 studies was performed. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the correlation between PD-L1 overexpression and prognosis of NHL, and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% CIs were used to assess the association of PD-L1 overexpression with clinicopathological factors.Results: The results showed that no significant difference between PD-L1 positive and negative groups was detected in NHL (HR: 1.40, 95% CI: 0.90–2.19; P = 0.137). Nevertheless, the results indicated that PD-L1 overexpression was associated with poor prognosis in the subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (HR: 1.70, 95%CI: 1.05–2.74; P = 0.031). We also performed subgroup analyses and meta-regression. The pooled OR showed that PD-L1 overexpression was associated with B symptoms, higher international prognostic index (IPI) score (3, 4, and 5 points) and Ann Arbor Stages III and IV. Conclusions: The meta-analysis demonstrated that PD-L1 expression was not associated with prognosis of NHL but was associated with prognosis of DLBCL.

Abstract In this retrospective study we described the response and toxicity of a modified Magrath IVAC (mIVAC) regimen in 25 patients with refractory/relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The mIVAC consisted of ifosfamide 1,500mg/m2 (one-hour infusion beginning at 9:00; D1 to D5), mesna 300mg/m2 (bolus at hours 9:00, 13:00, 17:00; D1 to D5), citarabine 2,000 mg/m2 (two one-hour infusions beginning at 8:00 and 16:00; D1 and D2) and etoposide 60 mg/m2 (one-hour infusion beginning at 10:00; D1 to D5). Treatment was repeated every four weeks for a maximum of six cycles. Patients who achieved partial remission or complete remission after at least three courses were offered autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), if eligible. The median age was 37 years (range 18 to 59 years). Twenty-two (88%) patients had diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, fourteen (56%) had relapsed disease and 10 (40%) were considered high-intermediate and high risk by age-adjusted International Prognostic Index. The overall response rate was 68% (95% CI: 46%–90%). A total of 64 cycles were given, with a median of three courses per patient. Grade 3/4 neutropenia was observed after 85,6% of the courses, and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia was observed after 87,5% of the courses. Grade 3/4 neutropenic fever occurred after 28% of the courses. Non-hematologic toxic effects were rare, predominantly grade 1/2. No toxic deaths were observed. Fifteen (88%) of the 17 responding patients underwent ASCT. With a median follow-up of 14 months, the median overall survival time for mIVAC sensitive patients was 16 months. This regimen may be feasible for patient with relapsed and refractory aggressive NHL in countries with inadequate numbers of hospital beds.

Abstract To comparatively assess first-line treatment with cladribine single (C) or in combination with cyclophosphamide (CC), and COP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone) in low grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), previously untreated patients (pts) with Ann Arbor stage II-IV were randomly allocated to receive 6 monthly courses of either C, CC, or COP. End points were treatment response, freedom from progression (FFP) and overall survival (OS), and tolerance. From June 1, 2000 to June 30, 2005, 196 pts were randomized in 17 centers. Of 153 pts for whom data is available, 55 (36%) were diagnosed as small lymphocytic, 11 lymphoplasmocytoid (7%), 37 marginal-zone (24%), 42 follicular (27.5%), and 8 not otherwise specified low grade B-cell NHL (5.5%). Randomization constituted comparable groups, including International Prognostic Index variables. Compared to C and CC, COP induced lower overall response rates (75%, 90%, 50%, χ2 =7.9 p<.005), including lower complete remission rates (38%, 62%, 9.5%, χ2=19.2 p<.0001). With a median follow-up of 15 months, FFP was superior in patients receiving cladribine-containing regimens (χ2 = 21.8, log-rank p<.0001). No difference in median OS was observed. Incidences of infections (9% versus 3.5% versus 7%) and non-hematological side effects (7.5% versus 3.5% versus 7%) were similar in the randomized groups, whereas CC but not C induced more frequent peripheral cytopenias compared to COP (30% versus 11%, p=.034). This resulted in higher frequency of prolongation of intervals between CC versus COP treated pts (respectively 45% and 21%, χ2=6.04 p=.014) and C versus CC treated pts (respectively 26% and 45%, χ2=4.24, p=.039). Dose reductions because of hematological or other toxicity were comparable in C (9.5%), CC (20%), and COP (21%) groups. Although final results warrant completed data for all randomised pts with longer follow-up, similar tolerance and higher efficacy of cladribine-based regimens over COP provide rationale to combine C or CC with rituximab in future clinical trials.

Objective This study was conducted with the aim of making the contribution to a decision for treatment and determination of the modalities in patients diagnosed with non-Hodgkın lymphoma which increasingly become widespread in the geriatric population. Materials and methods Ninety-one patients aged over 65 years diagnosed with lymphoma and treated in Bezmialem Vakıf University Medical Faculty Hospital and Haseki Training and Research Hospital between 2008 and 2013 were retrospectively evaluated. Finally, 63 patients for whom data could be reached were included in the study. Results Examining the results, histological diagnoses of our patients were as follows: diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (50.8%), follicular lymphoma (23.8%), marginal zone lymphoma (12.7%), mantle cell lymphoma (4.8%), T-cell lymphoma (4.8%), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (1.6%) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (1.6%). Stages at the time of diagnosis were early stage by 33.3% and late stage by 66.7%. Of the patients, 36.5% had a low-intermediate and 63.5% a high-intermediate International Prognostic Index score. According to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group scoring, 34.9% of the patients have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score of 2–4. Activities of daily living score of 33.3% patients was under 5. Looking at the responses to treatment, the complete response was found in 50.8%, partial response in 4.8%, stable disease in 1.6% and progressive disease in 9.5% of the patients. The mean follow-up duration of patients was found as 25.2 months and disease-free survival after remission as 20.2 months. Conclusion We found that we have achieved a complete remission in more than half of our patients (50.8%). Based on this, treatment should aim remission in elderly patients.

AbstractA number of prognostic factors affect outcome in patients with relapsed or primary refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), including refractory disease and the second-line age-adjusted international prognostic index. In de novo DLBCL, the cell of orgin, as determined by expression microarray analysis or immunohistochemistry (IHC), predicts event-free survival (EFS). We evaluated the cell of origin, as well as other pathologic markers of outcome, on the repeat biopsy specimen of 88 transplantation-eligible patients undergoing ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide (ICE) second-line chemotherapy (SLT) followed by high-dose therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) to see if were they prognostic in the salvage setting. Pretreatment clinical factors were well balanced between the cohorts. There was no significant difference in response to SLT, HDT, event-free or overall survival based on the cell of origin or any of the common pathologic markers examined. The cell of origin as determined by IHC does not predict outcome in transplantation-eligible patients with relapsed or primary refractory DLBCL.
