  • impact of 18 f fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography response evaluation in patients with high tumor burden follicular Lymphoma treated with immunochemotherapy a prospective study from the groupe d etudes des lymphomes de l adulte and goelams
    Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2012
    Co-Authors: Jehan Dupuis, Nicolas Mounier, Pauline Brice, Herve Tilly, Christelle Tychyjpinel, Andrea Gallamini, Alina Berrioloriedinger, Anne Julian, Pierre Feugier, Pierre Soubeyran
    Abstract:

    Purpose [18F]Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (PET) is widely used for the staging and restaging of patients with Aggressive Lymphoma, but less is known about the utility of PET in patients with follicular Lymphoma (FL). In a prospective study, we evaluated the prognostic value of PET performed during treatment and at the end of treatment in 121 patients with FL treated with first-line immunochemotherapy. Patients and Methods Patients with previously untreated high–tumor burden FL were treated with six cycles of R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) plus two cycles of rituximab, without rituximab maintenance. PET was performed before treatment, after four cycles of R-CHOP (interim PET), and at the end of treatment (final PET). PET scans were centrally reviewed. Results The total number of patients included was 121. Median age was 57 years. After central review, interim PET (n = 111) was negative in 76% of patients, and final PET (n = 106) was negativ...

    Co-Authors: Christophe Bonnet, Catherine Thieblemont, Nicolas Mounier, Gerard Ganem, Christophe Ferme, Bruno Quesnel, Georges Fillet, Thierry Molina, Claude Martin, Christian Gisselbrecht
    Abstract:

    Purpose Chemoradiotherapy has been considered standard treatment for patients with limited-stage Aggressive Lymphoma on the basis of trials conducted before the introduction of the International Prognostic Index. To evaluate this approach in elderly patients with low-risk localized Lymphoma, we conducted a trial comparing chemoradiotherapy with chemotherapy alone. Patients and Methods Previously untreated patients older than 60 years with localized stage I or II histologically Aggressive Lymphoma and no adverse prognostic factors of the International Prognostic Index were randomly assigned to receive either four cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) plus involved-field radiotherapy (299 patients) or chemotherapy alone with four cycles of CHOP (277 patients). Results With a median follow-up time of 7 years, event-free and overall survival did not differ between the two treatment groups (P .6 and P .5, respectively). The 5-year estimates of event-free survival were 61% for patients receiving chemotherapy alone and 64% for patients receiving CHOP plus radiotherapy; the 5-year estimates of overall survival were 72% and 68%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis, overall survival was affected by stage II disease (P .001) and male sex (P .03). Conclusion In this large prospective study, CHOP plus radiotherapy did not provide any advantage over CHOP alone for the treatment of low-risk localized Aggressive Lymphoma in elderly patients.

  • RAPID COMMUNICATION LA23 Rearrangements in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma: Correlation With Histology, Immunophenotype, Karyotype, and Clinical Outcome in 217 Patients
    2013
    Co-Authors: Christian Bastard, Christophe Fruchart, Clotilde Deweindt, Jeanpierre Kerckaert, Francesco Pezzella, C Duval, M Monconduit, Bernard Lenorm, Annick Rossi, Herve Tilly
    Abstract:

    We have recently shown that an evolutionary conserved gene LAZ3, encoding a zinc finger protein, is disrupted and overexpressed in some B-cell Lymphomas (mainly with a large cell component) that show chromosomal rearrangements involving 3q27. Because the breakpoints involved in these rearrangements are focused in a narrow major translocation cluster (MTC) on chromosome 3, we used genomic probes from this region to study the molecular rearrangements of LAZ3 in a large series of patients (217) with non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL). Southern blot analysis showed LAZ3 rearrangement in 43 patients (19.8%). Rearrangement was found in 11 of the 84 patients (13%) with follicular Lymphoma but was most frequent in Aggressive Lymphoma (diffuse mixed, diffuse large cell, and large cell immunoblastic subtypes), in which 31 of the 114 patient

  • intensive conventional chemotherapy acvbp regimen compared with standard chop for poor prognosis Aggressive non hodgkin Lymphoma
    Blood, 2003
    Co-Authors: Herve Tilly, Eric Lepage, Bertrand Coiffier, Andre Bosly, Georges Fillet, Michel Blanc, Raoul Herbrecht, Michel Attal, Catherine Guettier, Thierry Jo Molina
    Abstract:

    We conducted a randomized trial to compare the intensive conventional chemotherapy regimen ACVBP (doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vindesine, bleomycin, prednisone) with standard CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) in previously untreated patients with poor-risk Aggressive Lymphoma. Patients aged 61 to 69 years who had Aggressive non-Hodgkin Lymphoma with at least one prognostic factor of the age-adjusted international prognostic index (IPI) were included. ACVBP consisted of an induction phase of intensified chemotherapy and central nervous system (CNS) prophylaxis followed by a sequential consolidation phase. Of the 708 patients registered for the study, 635 were eligible. The rate of complete response was 58% in the ACVBP group and 56% in the CHOP group (P =.5). Treatment-related death occurred in 13% of the ACVBP group and 7% of the CHOP group (P =.014). At 5 years, the event-free survival was 39% in the ACVBP group and 29% in the CHOP group (P =.005). The overall survival was significantly longer for patients treated with ACVBP, at 5 years it was 46% compared with 38% for patients treated with CHOP (P =.036). CNS progressions or relapses were more frequent in the CHOP group (P =.004). Despite higher toxicity, the ACVBP regimen, used as first-line treatment for patients with poor-risk Aggressive Lymphoma, is superior to standard CHOP with regard to both event-free survival and overall survival.

    Co-Authors: Christian Gisselbrecht, Eric Lepage, Thierry Jo Molina, Bertrand Coiffier, Pierre Lederlin, Bruno Quesnel, Georges Fillet, Herve Tilly, Jean Gabarre, Francoise Guilmin
    Abstract:

    PURPOSE: Randomized trial LNH93-3 was conducted on patients who had poor-prognosis Aggressive Lymphoma and were younger than 60 years with two to three factors of the age-adjusted International Prognostic Index to evaluate the benefit of early high-dose therapy (HDT) with autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients were randomized between doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vindesine, bleomycin, and prednisone (ACVBP) chemotherapy followed by sequential consolidation and an experimental shortened treatment consisting of three cycles with escalated doses of cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, vindesine, bleomycin, and prednisone and collection of peripheral-blood stem cells. On day 60, HDT was administered with 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan followed by ASCT. RESULTS: Eligible patients (n = 370) with Aggressive Lymphoma were analyzed. For ACVBP (181 patients) and HDT (189 patients), respective complete remission rates were 64% and 63%. With a...

    Co-Authors: Corinne Haioun, Pauline Brice, Emmanuel Itti, A Rahmouni, J D Rain, Karim Belhadj, Philippe Gaulard, Laurent Garderet, E Lepage, F Reyes
    Abstract:

    Assessment of early therapeutic response using metabolic imaging is potentially useful to determine prognosis in Aggressive Lymphoma. Between January 2000 and January 2004, 90 patients with newly diagnosed Aggressive Lymphoma (median age 53 years, 94% diffuse large B-cell) were prospectively explored with [ 18 F]fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) prior to induction chemotherapy, after 2 cycles (“early PET”), and after induction completion. Therapeutic response was evaluated using conventional diagnostic methods at 4 cycles. Induction treatment with an anthracycline-containing regimen was administered to all patients, associated with rituximab in 41%. According to the International Prognostic Index (IPI), 37 patients and 53 patients belonged to the lower- and higher-risk groups, respectively. At midinduction, “early PET” was considered negative in 54 patients and positive in 36. After completion of induction, 83% of PET-negative patients achieved complete remission compared with only 58% of PET-positive patients. Outcome differed significantly between PET-negative and PET-positive groups; the 2-year estimates of event-free survival reached 82% and 43%, respectively ( P P = .006). Predictive value of “early PET” was observed in both the lower-risk and higher-risk groups, indicating prognostic independence from the IPI. Therefore, FDG-PET should be an early guide to first-line strategies in Aggressive Lymphoma. (Blood. 2005;106:1376-1381)

    Abstract:

    Background Chemoradiotherapy is standard treatment for localized Aggressive Lymphoma. To determine the optimal therapy for nonelderly persons with low-risk localized Lymphoma, we conducted a randomized trial comparing chemoradiotherapy with chemotherapy alone. Methods Previously untreated patients less than 61 years old with localized stage I or II Aggressive Lymphoma and no adverse prognostic factors according to the International Prognostic Index were randomly assigned to three cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) plus involved-field radiotherapy (329 patients) or chemotherapy alone with dose-intensified doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vindesine, bleomycin, and prednisone (ACVBP) plus sequential consolidation (318 patients). Results With a median follow-up of 7.7 years, event-free and overall survival rates were significantly higher in the group given chemotherapy alone than in the group given CHOP plus radiotherapy (P<0.001 and P=0.001, respectively).

  • phase ii study of copanlisib a pi3k inhibitor in relapsed or refractory indolent or Aggressive Lymphoma
    Annals of Oncology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Martin Dreyling, Catherine Thieblemont, Franck Morschhauser, Krimo Bouabdallah, Dominique Bron, David Cunningham, Sarit Assouline, Gregor Verhoef, Kim Linton, Umberto Vitolo
    Abstract:

    Background: Copanlisib is a pan-class I phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor with predominant activity against the a-and delta-isoforms. Patients and methods: This phase II study evaluated the response rate of copanlisib administered intravenously on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle, in patients with indolent or Aggressive malignant Lymphoma. Archival tumor tissues were used for immunohistochemistry, gene-expression profiling, and mutation analysis. Results: Thirty-three patients with indolent Lymphoma and 51 with Aggressive Lymphoma received copanlisib. Follicular Lymphoma (48.5%) and peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (33.3%) were the most common histologic subtypes. Most patients (78.6%) had received prior rituximab and 54.8% were rituximab-refractory. Median duration of treatment was 23 and 8 weeks in the indolent and Aggressive cohorts, respectively (overall range 2-138). Eighty patients were evaluated for efficacy. The objective response rate was 43.7% (14/32) in the indolent cohort and 27.1% (13/48) in the Aggressive cohort; median progression-free survival was 294 days (range 0-874) and 70 days (range 0-897), respectively; median duration of response was 390 days (range 0-825) and 166 days (range 0-786), respectively. Common adverse events included hyperglycemia (57.1%; grade >= 3, 23.8%), hypertension (54.8%; grade >= 3, 40.5%), and diarrhea (40.5%; grade >= 3, 4.8%), all generally manageable. Neutropenia occurred in 28.6% of patients (grade 4, 11.9%). Molecular analyses showed enhanced antitumor activity in tumors with upregulated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway gene expression. Conclusion: Intravenous copanlisib demonstrated promising efficacy and manageable toxicity in heavily pretreated patients with various subtypes of indolent and Aggressive malignant Lymphoma. Subtype-specific studies of copanlisib in patients with follicular, peripheral T-cell, and mantle cell Lymphomas are ongoing.

    Abstract:

    Purpose Chemoradiotherapy has been considered standard treatment for patients with limited-stage Aggressive Lymphoma on the basis of trials conducted before the introduction of the International Prognostic Index. To evaluate this approach in elderly patients with low-risk localized Lymphoma, we conducted a trial comparing chemoradiotherapy with chemotherapy alone. Patients and Methods Previously untreated patients older than 60 years with localized stage I or II histologically Aggressive Lymphoma and no adverse prognostic factors of the International Prognostic Index were randomly assigned to receive either four cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) plus involved-field radiotherapy (299 patients) or chemotherapy alone with four cycles of CHOP (277 patients). Results With a median follow-up time of 7 years, event-free and overall survival did not differ between the two treatment groups (P .6 and P .5, respectively). The 5-year estimates of event-free survival were 61% for patients receiving chemotherapy alone and 64% for patients receiving CHOP plus radiotherapy; the 5-year estimates of overall survival were 72% and 68%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis, overall survival was affected by stage II disease (P .001) and male sex (P .03). Conclusion In this large prospective study, CHOP plus radiotherapy did not provide any advantage over CHOP alone for the treatment of low-risk localized Aggressive Lymphoma in elderly patients.
