Copanlisib, a pan-class I phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor with predominant activity against the α and δ isoforms, previously demonstrated durable responses as monotherapy and improved progression-free survival (PFS) in combination with rituximab in patients with relapsed indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL). CHRONOS-4 was a phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy and safety of copanlisib in combination with standard immunochemotherapy in patients with relapsed iNHL. Patients (n = 524) were randomized (1:1) to copanlisib (60 mg IV) plus immunochemotherapy (rituximab and bendamustine [R-B] or placebo plus R-B).

It constitutes approximately 25% of all PTCLs and accounts for more than 15% of all lymphomas. The results of the first Ukrainian prospective study of patients with PTCL-NOS are presented in the article.

Unlabelled: Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders, accounting for about 10 % of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The most common subtype is peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unclassified (PTCL-NOS), accounting for about 26 % of all PTCLs. PTCL-NOS is associated with less favorable overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared with aggressive B-cell lymphomas.

Materials And Methods: Retrospectively, data were collected of the peripheral blood stem cells apheresis performed using available BCS manufactured by Fresenius (ComTec and Amicus) in the National Cancer Institute Ukraine from 2017 to 2020.
