Title: Modified R-BAC plus BTK inhibitor regimen in newly diagnosed young patients with mantle cell lymphoma: a real-world retrospective study. Author: Li W, Chang Y, Liu X, Chen Z, Sun J, Geng Z, Zhang M, Zhang L. Journal: Ann Hematol; 2024 Jun; 103(6):2003-2012. PubMed ID: 38308020. Abstract: To explore the optimal treatment for young patients with untreated mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), we compared the efficacy and safety of R-CHOP/R-DHAP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone/rituximab, dexamethasone, cytarabine and cisplatin) and R-BAP (rituximab, bendamustine, cytarabine, and prednisone) plus BTK (Bruton's tyrosine kinase) inhibitors in newly diagnosed patients. Eighty-three young patients (≤ 65 years old) with newly diagnosed MCL admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1, 2014, to June 1, 2023, using R-CHOP/R-DHAP or R-BAP plus BTK inhibitor were assessed in this study. The median age at presentation was 60 (42-65) years in 83 patients, including 64 males and 19 females; 59 were treated with R-CHOP/R-DHAP regimen chemotherapy, and 24 were treated with R-BAP in combination with the BTK inhibitor regimen. The median follow-up was 17 months (2-86 months) in 83 patients, and the median PFS (progression-free survival) time was not reached. The CRR (complete response rate) of the R-BAP group was higher than that of the R-CHOP/R-DHAP group (87.5% vs. 54.2%, P = 0.005). The ORR (overall response rate) was not significantly different between the two groups (ORR: 91.7% vs. 84.7%, P = 0.497). The PFS (progression-free survival) of the R-BAP group was longer than that of the R-CHOP/R-DHAP group (P = 0.013), whereas OS was not significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.499). The most common adverse effect in both groups was hematotoxicity, with a higher incidence of grade 3-4 lymphopenia and grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia in the R-BAP group than in the R-CHOP/R-DHAP group (P = 0.015 and P = 0.039). Male sex (HR = 4.257, P = 0.013), LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) ≥ 245 U/L (HR = 3.221, P = 0.012), pleomorphic-blastoid (HR = 2.802, P = 0.043) and R-CHOP/R-DHAP regimen (HR = 7.704, P = 0.047) were independent risk factors for PFS. Ki67 ≥ 30% (HR = 8.539, P = 0.005) was an independent risk factor for OS. First-line treatment with R-BAP in combination with BTK inhibitor improved CRR and prolonged PFS in young patients with mantle cell lymphoma and adverse events were tolerable.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
