Elderly patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) present with poor clinical outcome and intolerance to intensive chemotherapy. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACIs) show anti-lymphoma activities and can be applied to treat DLBCL. This study aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of oral HDACI tucidinostat (formerly known as chidamide) plus R-CHOP (CR-CHOP) in elderly patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL (International Prognostic Index ≥ 2).
Among 49 patients, the complete response rate was 86%, with overall response rate achieving 94%. The 2-year progression survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 68% (95% CI 52-79) and 83% (95% CI 68-91). Comparing with historical control (NCT01852435), the 2-year PFS and OS rates of double-expressor lymphoma phenotype (DEL) were improved, and negative prognostic effect of histone acetyltransferases CREBBP/EP300 mutations was also mitigated by CR-CHOP. Grade 3-4 neutropenia was reported in 171, grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia in 27, and grade 3 anemia in 11 of 283 cycles. No grade 4 non-hematological adverse event was reported.
CR-CHOP is effective and safe in elderly patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL. Relevance of DEL phenotype and molecular biomarkers on CR-CHOP response warrants further investigation in DLBCL. Trial registration ClinicalTrial.gov, NCT02753647. Registered on April 28, 2016.
老年弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤(DLBCL)患者临床结局较差,不能耐受强化化疗。组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂(HDACIs)具有抗淋巴瘤活性,可用于治疗 DLBCL。本研究旨在评估口服 HDACI 他西地尼(以前称为西达本胺)联合 R-CHOP(CR-CHOP)治疗新诊断的弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤(国际预后指数≥2)老年患者的疗效和安全性。
在 49 例患者中,完全缓解率为 86%,总缓解率为 94%。2 年无进展生存(PFS)和总生存(OS)率分别为 68%(95%CI 52-79)和 83%(95%CI 68-91)。与历史对照(NCT01852435)相比,双表达淋巴瘤表型(DEL)的 2 年 PFS 和 OS 率得到改善,CR-CHOP 也减轻了组蛋白乙酰转移酶 CREBBP/EP300 突变的不良预后影响。283 个周期中,171 例发生 3-4 级中性粒细胞减少,27 例发生 3-4 级血小板减少,11 例发生 3 级贫血。未报告 4 级非血液学不良事件。
CR-CHOP 对新诊断的老年弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤患者有效且安全。DEL 表型和分子生物标志物对 CR-CHOP 反应的相关性需要在 DLBCL 中进一步研究。临床试验注册ClinicalTrials.gov,NCT02753647。于 2016 年 4 月 28 日注册。
