Simplified classification of PTCL10-15% of all lymphomas, 23 entities
• Common category
– Peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified (PTCL-U/NOS) 34%
– Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AILT) 29%
– Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (NKTCL) 4%
– Enteropathy-type T-cell lymphoma (ETTCL) 9%
– Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma 2%
– Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma <1%
• Anaplastic large-cell lymphoma category
– ALK(-), systemic 9%
– ALK(+), systemic 6%
– cutaneous CD30+ 1%
For a complete classification, see WHO 2008 and Vose et al, JCO 2008
Europe
Diagnosis of PTCL
• Multiparametric approach (clinical picture, phenotype, morphology, genetics), no specific markers
• Phenotypic profile:
– CD4/CD8 stain may indicate clonal restriction BUT double-neg and double-pos
– Frequent antigenic loss (« antigen-aberrancy »), ie CD5 and CD7
– TCR rearrangement pivotal, but germline in NK subtypes!
• Other markers
– Cytotoxic profile: granzyme, perforin
– NK markers
– CD30+: ALCL
– ALK+, t(2;5)
– EBV: nasal forms, aggressive behaviour
PTCLPrognosis
Overall survival of 288 PTCL patients compared with 1,595
DLBCL patients
Gisselbrecht, Blood 1998
PTCL is a poor prognosis disease, except for some specific
entities (ie, ALCL ALK+, primary cutaneous ALCL, MF)
PTCL, NOSPoor prognosis also explained by high IPI
Most PTCL patients
are advanced:
0/1: 28%
2-5: 72%
Weisenburgerr, Blood 2011
Factors included:
Age (<60y vs >60)
LDH (<NL vs >Nl)
ECOG PS (0-1 vs 2-4)
Stage (I/II vs III/IV)
EN involvement (<1 site vs >1)
PTCLClinical characteristics
• Age > 50y, male, aggressive behavior, EN sites
• Potential association with hemophagocytic syndrome (HS)
• More « specific » clinical features
– AILT: fever, rash, polyclonal gammapathy, auto-immunity
– NKTCL: EBV-related, local nasal destruction, extensive necrosis
– Hepatosplenic : young men, liver/spleen, immune suppression, chronic antigen stimulation (SLE), i(7)(q10)
– ETTCL: jejunum/ileum, closely associated with celiac disease
– Panniculitis-like: subcutaneous nodules, HS often fatal
PTCL – TreatmentCHOP is standard
Reviewed in Foss, Semin Hematol 2010
≈ 30%
Weisenburger, Blood 2011
OS and FFS of 340 patients with PTCL-NOS (retrospective)
PTCL – TreatmentCHOP is disappointing
PTCL - TreatmentHow to do better than CHOP? What has been tried?
• Consolidation with upfront ASCT
• Consolidation with upfront allogeneic transplantation
• Addition of etoposide: CHOEP
• New CHOP-X combinations
No proof of superiority, sometimes looks better but not demonstrated in randomized trials
PTCLRole of high-dose therapy and ASCT in consolidation
Rodriguez, Ann Oncol 2004
BUT
-median age 46y
-Only 14% PIT 3-4
-ALCL included (ALK
status not known)
Le Gouill, JCO 2008
Patient characteristics (n=77):
18-60 years, LDH ≤ UNV
35% ALCL, 35% PTCL-NOS, 14% AITL
All pretreated (25% ASCT)
74% myeloablative, TBI 66%, RIC 26%
PTCLRole of allogeneic translantation
BUT
-Survivals given AFTER
transplantation
-Many patients do not achieve
transplant eligibility at any time!
PTCLRole of addition of etoposide (retrospective)
Schmitz et al, Blood 2010
ALCL, ALK-positive Other subtypes
Benefit in young mainly, risk of toxicity in elderly
PTCL – TreatmentNew CHOP-X combinations
• CHOP-alemtuzumab (closed study)
• CHOP-rhomidepsin (ongoing study)
• CHOP alternating with BV (brentuximab vedotin) or CHP-BV for CD30+ malignancies
• Maintenance pralatrexate after CHOP
PTCLTreatment recommendations
• Start with an anthracyclin-containing regimen
• CHOP21/14, CHOEP…
• If NO/SLOW response (role of Pet?), try to convert into CR
• ESHAP, DHAP, IFE (IFO-VP16), gemcitabine-containing…
• Consider upfront HDT and ASCT
• in young patients with initial int/high IPI (majority)
• and/or with HS
• and chemosensitive (in 1st CR)
• HDT and ASCT (or allogenic Tx?) in relapse
• if not transplanted upfront
• and chemosensitive (in 2nd or higher CR)

PTCL« How I treat the PTCLs » by Moskowitz et al, Blood 2014
• General approach
– « Outside of a clinical trial, we most frequently use the treatment approach evaluated in the Nordic study with 6 cycles of CHOEP-14 followed by consolidation with ASCT as this is the largest dataset with the best phase II outcomes »
• Is there a favorable risk PTCL who should be treated differently?
– Low IPI patients: « Clearly, even for these more favorable patients, reduced therapy is not validated »
– ALK-positive: « We generally treat these patients as we treat the less favorable diseases with induction chemotherapy and ASCT consolidation »
PTCL« How I treat the PTCLs » by Moskowitz et al, Blood 2014
• Relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease
– « We typically aim for allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) in fit patients, as in our experience this has been more reliably curative than ASCT in the relapsed setting »
• Categories of R/R patients
– Transplant soon: fit, donor+
Multiagent chemotherapies (IFO, CARBO or CDDP) before Tx
– Transplant never: age, co-morbidities, lack of donor, choice…
– Transplant unclear: to be valuated for Tx
Experimental or single-drug more tolerable

PTCLConclusions
• CHOP remains the (poor) platform to build on, but beware of additional toxicity of CHOP-X
• Limited number of patients who can be treated less intensively must be identified, but beware of under-treatment
• More targeted approaches eagerly awaited
