MYD88 in WM
Treon et al, NEJM 2012
Molecular characteristics
• 30-50% of patients: deletion 6q by FISH• BLIMP (on 6q21): a tumor-suppressor gene, is the
master gene regulator for B-lymphocytic cell proliferation.
• 70-90% of patients have MYD88 mutation.• CXCR4 somatic mutation in 24% of samples
Treon et al NEJM 2012
Consensus recommendations of the 4th International WM meeting
• First Line therapy:– Combination therapy
• (RCD or CPR; Cytoxan+nucleoside analogues+R; R-CHOP, R-CVP)
– Rituximab single agent– Nucleoside analogues– Alkylators
• Salvage therapy:– Re-use therapies– Bortezomib– Thalidomide+steroids– Alemtuzumab– AHSCT

Primary treatment of Waldenström macroglobulinemia with dexamethasone, rituximab,
and cyclophosphamide.
• 72 patients• cyclophosphamide 100 mg/m2 orally bid on days 1 to
5 (total dose, 1,000 mg/m2). • 83% of patients achieved a response• Including 7% complete, 67% partial, and 9% minor
responses. • The median time to response was 4.1 months. • The 2-year progression-free survival rate for all
patients was 67%

Bendamustine plus Rituximab versus CHOP plus Rituximab in the First-Line- Treatment of Patients with Waldenstrom
disease: Randomized Phase III Study of the Studygroup Indolent Lymphomas (StiL)
Rummel, WM-Workshop2012
•42 pts with WM, report on 40 evaluable in interim analysis, BR=23 and CHOP-R=17.
•The ORR for pts treated with B-R was similar to that associated with CHOP-R (96% vs 94%, respectively).
•The median follow-up time for both groups is 26 months.
•Progressive or relapsed disease: 2 in pts treated with B-R and 7 in the CHOP-R group.
•Less toxicity and non-inferior response.

IMIDs in WM• Thalidomide and rituximab:
– Thalidomide 200-400 mg, rituximab weeks 2-5, 13-16– 25 pts (20 untreated)– 70% ORR– TTP ≥38 months observed among responders. – 44% >G2 PN
• Lenalidomide and rituximab: – 25 mg lenalidomide 21 days, and rituximab weeks 2-5, 13-16– 16 pts (12 untreated)– 50% response rate, TTP of 18.9 months– 88% discontinuation of therapy– Most due to anemia that occurred early with therapy– Median decrease in Hct from 32 to 27%, 4 pts required hospitalization
• Phase I trials of lenalidomide ongoing, phase I pomalidomide/rituximab ongoing.

Nat Rev Imm 2:945
• B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling is required for tumor expansion and proliferation
• Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase (Btk) is an essential element of the BCR signaling pathway
• Inhibitors of Btk block BCR signaling and induces apoptosis
IgM
Ibrutinib
• Breakthrough designation by the FDA for WM.
• Over 80% response rate.
• Very well tolerated.
• Currently, no trials available. Awaiting approval and more trials or expanded access in the next few months.

Oprozomib
• Oral agent.• Proteasome inhibitor without neuropathy.• Over 80% response rate so far in WM• Considering breakthrough designation in
WM.• Study open in multiple sites and accruing
now.
Future developments
• MYD88 targeting (IRAK4)
• CXCR4 targeting
• miRNA155 targeting (MiRNA LNA)

Association between microRNAs and clinical prognostic features
Roccaro et al. Blood 2009
Summary Significant advances in WM specifically MYD88
miRNA155 as a prognostic maker and therapeutic target
New agents including mTOR inhibitors, BTK inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, HDAC inhibitors, new proteasome inhibitors
Can we personalize therapy in WM?
Should we treat earlier to prevent complications/clonal heterogeneity and resistance
FDA approval for agents in WM
