THE THRUST OF CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS • Identify subsets of patients with diffuse large B cell or Hodgkin lymphoma who are either destined to do well or fare poorly using techniques beyond the known clinical predictive factors, particuarly those techniques using molecular changes and/or PET scans. • By applying our better understanding of the (molecular) biology of these diseases, can we not only identify these subsets, but also develop and individualize treatments using less therapy for those with a good prognosis and using novel therapies for those destined to do poorly.

What is a “double hit” lymphoma? • Recurrent breakpoints activating multiple oncogenes, one being MYC • BCL2+/MYC+ most common • BCL6, CCND1 and BCL3 may also occur • Can also have “triple hit”
Immunophenotype of “double hit” lymphoma • CD10+, GCB phenotype • Lack MUM1, ABC phenotype • BCL2 + also present (with Myc) in a majority of cases • High proliferative index • median 90% Ki67+ Aukema et al, Blood 2011

Abramson ASH 2013, Abstract 40
DHL: Impact of R-EPOCH • Results of chi-square analysis • Improved CR compared to R-CHOP (p = .005) • Trend towards improvement w/ other regimens (p = .07) • Decreased PD compared to R-CHOP (p = .005) • Decreased PD w/ other intensive regimens (p = .003)
DHL: Conclusions DHL has a poor prognosis, although a subset exists which can achieve durable CR R-EPOCH is associated with improved rates of CR and decreased rates of PD SCT does not clearly improve OS compared to observation alone in those achieving CR Novel approaches and agents are necessary to overcome unfavorable biology

Background • Patients with DLBCL and an IPI score of 3-5 at diagnosis who relapse after R-CHOP can have a poor prognosis. • Enzastaurin is a potent and selective competitive inhibitor of PKCβ.1,2 • Enzastaurin was associated with freedom from progression in a phase II trial in a small subgroup of patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL, thereby providing the rationale for this study.3 R-CHOP = rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone.

Background PKCβ is the major isoform expressed in normal and malignant B cells.1,2 BTK SYK • PKCβ is required for B cell receptor signaling, activation of NFκB, and VEGF-mediated angiogenesis.3 P P PI 3K AKT • Over-expression of PKCβ mRNA and protein is associated with a poor outcome in patients with DLBCL.1 mTOR IKK PLC2 NFKB PKCβ DLBCL = diffuse large B cell lymphoma.

The PRELUDE Trial
Discussion and Conclusions The PRELUDE Trial Enzastaurin did not improve DFS, EFS, or OS vs. placebo in patients with CR after initial treatment for DLBCL and an IPI score of ≥3 Safety results of PRELUDE were consistent with the established safety profile of enzastaurin when used as a single-agent therapy in lymphoma and other cancers Cell-of-origin (GCB vs. non-GCB) was not prognostic for DFS in patients with CR
BENDAMUSTINE (with rituximab, vitamin R) Three studies reported: Japan, NSH, Germany Doses of B were 120mgm/m2 days 1,2 + R 375 mgm/m2 every three weeks. German study was with unrx’ed elderly (E) Responses ranged from 58% to 69% (E) CR’s ranged from 19% to 54% (E) PFS/OS ranged from 6 to 7.7(E) months Significant toxicity
Approach to “variant” DLBCLs • GCB vs non-GCB • R-CHOP is standard • Various randomized trials underway • MYC+, DH, TH • Consider FISH/IHC for MYC, BCL2, BCL6 • Less favorable with R-CHOP • Unclear if other approaches better • Prospective studies underway, including R-EPOCH • Intensive BL type regimens • R-EPOCH • Less favorable outcome than other DLBCL with R-CHOP • Risk seems to be beyond age, IPI • Less favorable at progression • Rearrangements noted • BCL2 31% • BCL6 18% • C-MYC 13% • C-MYC worse PFS and OS
In Hodgkin lymphoma, what role do PET Scans play in lessening (toxicity) therapy and enhancing cure? May interim PET/CAT scans be of value or should scans be used only at the end of treatment?

Outcomes After Median Follow-Up of 45.7 Months Radford J, et al. Blood. 2012;120: Abstract 547.
Summary 602 pts registered between 2003 and 2010 75% PET-negative at central review after ABVD x 3 In the randomized PET-negative population, 3 yr PFS is 93.8% IFRT and 90.7% NFT Risk difference -3% is within the maximum allowable difference of -7% Radford J, et al. Blood. 2012;120: Abstract 547.
Conclusion Patients with a negative PET scan after 3 cycles ABVD have an excellent prognosis without further treatment, and for these patients RT can be avoided Radford J, et al. Blood. 2012;120: Abstract 547.
Commentary These data are similar to those reported from Argentina several years ago. Would the slightly higher rate of false negative PET scans at cycle 3 seen in those patients not receiving adjuvant radiotherapy been avoided had the PET been performed at cycle 2, or better yet, cycle 1 Response-adapted therapy based on quality- controlled/assured PET imaging may become the future standard of care in early-stage HL Radford J, et al.
