The objective of this two-part review is to present a current and comprehensive understanding of the diagnosis and management of plasmablastic lymphoma. The first part, which was published previously, focused on the study of epidemiology, etiology, clinicopathological characteristics, differential diagnosis, prognostic variables, and the impact of plasmablastic lymphoma on specific populations. This second part addresses the difficult topic of the treatment of plasmablastic lymphoma, specifically examining both the conventional, consolidated approach and the novel therapeutic strategy...

Defining prognostic variables in T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LL) remains a challenge. AALL1231 was a COG phase 3 clinical trial for newly diagnosed with T Acute Lymphoblastic leukemia or T-LL patients randomizing children and young adults to a modified augmented BFM backbone to receive standard therapy (Arm A) or with addition of bortezomib (Arm B). Optional bone marrow (BM) samples to assess minimal residual disease (MRD) at the end of induction (EOI) were collected in T-LL analyzed to assess the correlation of MRD at the EOI to event-free survival (EFS)...

Cold agglutinins produced in the setting of B cell neoplasms, such as lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma and plasma cell myeloma, can mediate autoimmune haemolytic anemia. Transfusion of these patients can exacerbate cold agglutinin-mediated haemolysis. Moreover, the workup for these reactions represents a diagnostic challenge due in part to false negative direct antiglobulin tests (DATs). Here, we report an anaemic patient who after a red blood cell (RBC) transfusion performed without blood warming, experienced a DAT-negative haemolytic transfusion reaction, and was later diagnosed with IgA-multiple myeloma, which showed an uncommon granular pattern by CD138 immunohistochemistry...

Proteasome inhibitors such as Bortezomib represent an established type of targeted treatment for several types of hematological malignancies, including multiple myeloma, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, and mantle cell lymphoma, based on the cancer cell's susceptibility to impairment of the proteasome-ubiquitin system. However, a major problem limiting their efficacy is the emergence of resistance. Their application to solid tumors is currently being studied, while simultaneously, a wide spectrum of hematological cancers, such as Myelodysplastic Syndromes show minimal or no response to Bortezomib treatment...

Nearly all patients with multiple myeloma eventually relapse or become refractory to treatment. Lenalidomide is increasingly administered in the frontline until disease progression or intolerance to therapy, resulting in the need for highly effective, lenalidomide-sparing options. In this study, carfilzomib plus daratumumab and dexamethasone were evaluated against lenalidomide-sparing, pomalidomide-containing triplets using matching-adjusted indirect comparison in the absence of head-to-head data. The analyses utilized long-term follow-up data from the CANDOR study (NCT03158688)...

Proteasome inhibitor bortezomib is an anticancer agent approved for treatment of multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma. However, its application in other types of cancer, primarily in solid tumors, is limited due to poor pharmacokinetics, inefficient tissue penetration, low stability and frequent adverse effects. In the present study, a novel micellar nano-scaled delivery system was manufactured, composed of amphiphilic poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) nanoparticles loaded with bortezomib. Similar nanoparticles loaded with prothionamide, a drug without anticancer effect, were used as control...

Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM) is a type of incurable, indolent B-cell lymphoma that is prone to relapse. Over time, treatment strategies have progressed from cytotoxic drugs to rituximab (R)- or bortezomib (V)-based regimens, and have now entered into an era of Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi)-based regimens. However, the optimal treatment for the relapsed patients is still unclear. Herein, we analyzed the outcomes of the first- and second-line therapies in 377 patients with WM to illustrate the optimal choices for second-line therapy...

The standard treatment for canine lymphoma is the CHOP chemotherapy regimen. Proteasome inhibitors have been employed with CHOP for the treatment of human haematological malignancies but remain to be fully explored in canine lymphoma. We identified an association between poor response to CHOP chemotherapy and high mRNA expression levels of proteasomal subunits in a cohort of 15 canine lymphoma patients, and sought to determine the effect of proteasome inhibitors on the viability of a canine B-cell lymphoma cell line (CLBL-1)...

BACKGROUND: Lymphomas originating in bone but not involving visceral or regional lymph nodes are diagnosed as primary bone lymphoma (PBL). Few case reports of anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) originating in bone have been reported. The purpose of this report is to describe the difficulty in diagnosing and complete treatment process of this rare type of bone lymphoma. CASE DESCRIPTION: We describe a case of anaplastic lymphoma kinase positive (ALK+ ) ALCL patient with primary multiple bone lesions...

BACKGROUND: In preclinical models, combining a GLUT4 inhibitor with an oxidative phosphorylation inhibitor shows synergistic therapeutic potential against multiple myeloma (MM). Thus, this study evaluated the safety and tolerability of repurposing metformin, a complex I inhibitor, and nelfinavir, a GLUT4 inhibitor, in combination with bortezomib for the treatment of relapsed/refractory MM that had progressed on all standard of care therapies. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This trial utilized a 3 + 3 dose escalation design with 3 dose levels planned for up to a maximum of 6 (21-day) cycles...

Patients with Sézary syndrome (SS), a leukemic variant of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL), are prone to Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infections and have a poor prognosis due to treatment-resistance. Here, we report that S. aureus and staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) induce drug resistance in malignant T-cells against therapeutics commonly used in CTCL. Supernatant from patient-derived, SE-producing S. aureus and recombinant SE significantly inhibit cell death induced by HDAC inhibitor romidepsin in primary malignant T-cells from SS patients...

Introduction Plasmacytoma is a rare plasma-cell neoplasm, includes bone and extramedullary types. While most cases occur in the head and neck, our report presents an unusual case of extramedullary plasmacytoma in the penis, emphasizing the diverse locations of this condition. Case Presentation An 88-year-old man, post-hydrocelectomy, presented with a palpable penile mass causing urinary symptoms. CT scans revealed a tumor with extracapsular spread and potential urethral involvement. Biopsy confirmed lymphoma, later identified as extramedullary plasmacytoma...

INTRODUCTION: A proportion of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) are older and/or have comorbidities, requiring dose adjustments. Data from OPTIMISMM (NCT01734928) supported the use of pomalidomide, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (PVd) for treating relapsed/refractory MM. This subanalysis of OPTIMISMM assessed outcome by frailty and/or bortezomib dose adjustment. METHODS: Patient frailty (nonfrail vs. frail) was classified using age, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status...

Bortezomib (BTZ) is a proteasome inhibitor used to treat multiple myeloma (MM). However, the induction of peripheral neuropathy is one of the major concerns in using BTZ to treat MM. In the current study, we have explored the effects of BTZ (0.01-5 nM) on rat neural stem cells (NSCs). BTZ (5 nM) induced cell death; however, the percentage of neurons was increased in the presence of mitogens. BTZ reduced the b-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2)/Bcl-2 associated X protein ratio in proliferating NSCs and differentiated cells...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Adding gene expression profiles (GEPs) to the current diagnostic work-up of aggressive large B-cell lymphomas may lead to the reclassification of patients, treatment changes and improved outcomes. A GEP test is in development using TempO-Seq® technology to distinguish Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and to classify patients with DLBLC and to predict the benefit of (e...

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a highly heterogeneous disease with diverse clinical and molecular features. Telomere maintenance is widely present in tumors, but there is a lack of relevant reports on the role of telomere-related genes (TRGs) in DLBCL. In this study, we used consensus clustering based on TRGs expression to identify two molecular clusters with distinct prognoses and immune cell infiltration. We developed a TRGs scoring model using univariate Cox regression and LASSO regression in the GSE10846 training cohort...

Despite advances in multiple myeloma (MM) treatment, drug resistance remains a clinical challenge. We aimed to develop a prognostic model for bortezomib resistance based on miRNA expression profiling. The study included 40 previously untreated MM patients receiving bortezomib-based regimens (20 treatment-sensitive, 20 resistant). Pretreatment venous blood samples were analyzed for miRNA expression. Differential expression analysis revealed upregulated miR-27b-3p (FC 1.45, p  = 0.017) and let-7b-5p (FC 1...
