Fit patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) in relapsed or refractory (R/R) disease status often receive salvage chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHCT) or allogeneic HCT (alloHCT). However, there is no consensus on the type of HCT that should be applied for such patients. Herein, we retrospectively evaluated the survival outcome of 760 adult R/R PTCL-NOS or AITL patients who underwent the first HCT. Among them, 318 relapsed after first remission (REL) and 442 were refractory to the primary therapy (PIF). The 4-year overall survival (OS) of autoHCT and alloHCT was 50 and 50% for REL patients, and 52 and 49% for PIF patients, respectively. In the multivariable analysis, alloHCT tended to be associated with better progression-free survival (PFS) in REL (hazard ratio [HR] 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.53-1.03), and significantly better PFS in PIF (HR 0.64; 95% CI: 0.46-0.88) compared with autoHCT. The subgroup analysis with propensity-score matching showed that alloHCT was associated with better OS for REL-sensitive and PIF-nonremission disease. This study suggested that the advantage of alloHCT for R/R PTCL-NOS or AITL is different, depending on the disease status at HCT.

Introduction: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) and combination chemotherapy are independently used to treat relapsed/refractory (R/R) lymphoma. In vitro studies suggest that the addition of HDACi to platinum-based chemotherapy is synergistic.

Patients And Methods: We conducted a phase I study of romidepsin, gemcitabine, oxaliplatin and dexamethasone (Romi-GemOxD) in R/R aggressive lymphomas with an expansion cohort in T-cell lymphomas.

Article Synopsis
  • Variations in access to drugs globally make it hard to assess the effectiveness of modern treatments for patients with relapsed and refractory mature T-cell and NK-cell lymphomas in a study of 925 patients.
  • * The study found that relapsed lymphoma patients had better overall survival rates compared to refractory patients after second-line treatment, with several factors identified as predictors of survival.
  • * A new prognostic index (PIRT) categorizes patients based on risk factors into low, intermediate, or high risk, impacting 3-year overall survival rates, and highlights the superior outcomes of novel therapies compared to traditional chemotherapy.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate how endothelial activation and stress index (EASIX) affect the prognosis of patients with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS).
  • Researchers analyzed clinical data from 59 recently diagnosed patients to determine an optimal EASIX cut-off value and assess survival outcomes.
  • Findings revealed that a higher EASIX (≥0.95) correlates with more severe clinical features and significantly shorter overall survival and progression-free survival, indicating it as an independent risk factor for worsened prognosis.

Background: Prognostic models in peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) have identified biological factors including age, performance status, LDH, and BM involvement as prognostic for survival. The association of social determinants of health (SDH), on PTCL outcomes remains unexplored.

Methods: To evaluate the impact of actionable SDH on PTCL mortality across race groups, we conducted a retrospective cohort study that included all White, Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander (PI) and Black adult patients with nodal PTCLs , diagnosed 2000-2020, in California.

Purpose: The retrospective study was to explore the effectiveness and safety of GemOx (gemcitabine, oxaliplatin) plus sintilimab (belongs to the class of drugs known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, particularly targeting the PD-1 receptor) in relapse or refractory nodal PTCLs.

Methods: Patients with nodal PTCL who initiated salvage therapy with sintilimab and GemOx between January 2020 to September 2021 were identified from the database of the hematology department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine. All patients received 2-4 cycles (3 weeks/cycle) of treatment of sintilimab (200 mg, I.
