Abstract
Background. Despite tremendous progress in understanding tumor biology, the R-CHOP protocol remains the standard of care for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). To date, six genetic variants of DLBCL have been identified, the most unfavorable of which when using standard therapy are N1, MCD and BN2, which dictates the need to optimize the treatment of these DLBCL subtypes.
Aim. To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of Acala-R-CHOP regimen in induction therapy in patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL.
Materials and methods. The study included 15 patients who received Acala-R-CHOP program as part of the first-line therapy. This antitumor regimen was used for verified genotypes N1, MCD and BN2. The median age was 64 (38–78) years. The incidence of genetic variants in the considered cohort of patients: MCD – 13 % (n = 2), N1 – 74 % (n = 11), BN2 – 13 % (n = 2).
Results. Fifteen patients completed the therapy. The overall and complete metabolic response rates were 100 %. Toxicity was moderate, quite manageable and manifested mainly as myelosuppression.
Conclusion. The efficacy of Acala-R-CHOP therapy in patients with MCD, N1, and BN2 DLBCL genotypes is high with a low toxicity profile. However, longer follow-up periods are needed to assess the long-term results in this unfavorable group of patients.
Supporting agencies: The study was conducted with financial support under grant No. 1803-10/23 “Personalization of DLBCL treatment based on mutational profile as a new strategy to improve the effectiveness of first-line therapy”.
