  2. Evolution of MCL as a distinct subtype of NHL In mid-1970s, the Rappaport classification system described MCL as a diffuse or vaguely nodular low-grade lymphoma of intermediate differentiation. In the 1980s, this entity was recorded as centrocytic NHL by the Kiel classification system or was called lymphocytic lymphoma of intermediate differentiation by Jaffe et al. In 1982, MCL was then categorized as diffuse small-cleaved cell lymphoma by the Working Formulation system. In 1992, Banks and colleagues (22) coined the term mantle cell lymphoma, establishing MCL as a distinct type of lymphoma. In 1994, the REAL classification system, MCL. In 2000 by the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system, MCL. Zhou, Wang et al, Cancer, 2008

  3. Age-adjusted Incidence Rates for MCL by Age 1975 and 2004 Zhou, Wang et al, Cancer, 2008

  4. Biology of mantle cell lymphoma

  5. Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) A distinct subtype of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) t(11; 14)(q13; q32) chromosomal translocation Bcl-1/PRAD-1 gene with over expression of cyclin D1 MCL is derived from CD5-positive B cells within the mantle zone (CD5+, CD23-, cyclin D1+) A typical CD20 + B cell lymphoma, with the poorest survival among all NHLs. High response rate to initial treatment Inevitable relapse.

  6. Treatment of Mantle-Cell Lymphoma • No currently available treatment option is curative in advanced MCL • Investigational approaches • Chemotherapy (R-CHOP, R-HCVAD, R-Bendamustine) • Radiation • Immunotherapy (Rituximab, thalidomide, lenalidomide, DLI, Id Abs) • Radioimmunotherapy (Zevalin, Bexxar) • Stem cell transplantation (HDT with ASCT, Allogeneic BMT) • Proteasome inhibition (bortezomib, carfilzomib) • Other biological agents (Temsirolimus, Cal-101) Zhou, Wang et al, American J Hematology, 2007; Evans LS, Hancock BW. Lancet. 2003;362:139-146

Oral lenalidomide plus 4 doses of rituximab induced prolongedremissions in relapsed/refractorymantle cell lymphoma:a phase I/II clinical trial Departments of Lymphoma/Myeloma , Radiology, Biostatistics, Stem Cell Transplantation Celgene Support Michael Wang, Luis Fayad, Nicolaus Wagner-Bartak, Fredrick Hagemeister, Sattva Neelapu, Michelle Fanale, Anas Younes, Fernando Cabanillas, Liang Zhang, Richard Champlin, Larry Kwak, Lei Feng, Neda Bell, Jerome Zeldis, and Jorge Romaguera

  29. Objectives • To evaluate safety of lenalidomide in combination with rituximab in patients with relapsed/refractory MCL in Phase I • To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) in Phase I • To confirm safety and efficacy in Phase II

  30. Study Design • Standard 3 + 3 dose-escalation with 3 pts/cohort • Doses: lenalidomide 10, 15, 20 and 25 mg orally daily 3 weeks on and 1 week off, every 28 days. Rituximab 375 mg/m2 IV weekly X 4, cycle 1 only • DLT: Grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic or Grade 4 hematologic toxicity during the first cycle • MTD: dose level prior to level in which 1/3 or 2/6 pts experience DLT during cycle 1 • An addition of 38 patients at MTD in phase II

  31. Hematological Toxicity

  32. Non-hematological Toxicity

  33. Responses at MTD in Phase II * 1 patient (2%) was not evaluable for response, but counted as treatment failure

  34. Response Duration • Median response duration = 18.9 months • (range 17–not reached)

  35. Overall Survival & Progression-free Survival • Median PFS = 13.0 months (range 8.3–20.8) • After a median follow-up of 23.1 months, • median OS = 25.1 months • (range 19.8–not reached)

  36. Conclusions • Oral lenalidomide plus 4 doses of rituximabis effective and induced high quality and durable remissions in relapsed/refractory MCL • This combination had a very favourable toxicity profile. • Correlative studies in the future will provide insights in the mechanism of synergy. • This combination provides a solid base for future innovative clinical trials.

  37. Summary • Human fetal bone is critical for the engraftment of primary MCL cells in SCID-hu mice. • Patient MCL cells grow out of human bones and form expansile tumor masses surrounding the human bones. • Human MCL cells home to mouse lymph node, spleen, bone marrow, and GI tract. • MCL-SCID-hu mouse model is useful for testing the in vivo therapeutic efficiency of anti-MCL agent. • This is the first in vivo model of human patient MCL.

  39. Carfilzomib • an irreversible proteasome inhibitor with selectivity for the chymotrypsin-like active site • inhibits the proliferation of MCL cells in vitro and in vivo • Unlike bortezomib, carfilzomibis good-tolerated and does not induce severe neuropathy • Therefore, carfilzomib can be used in higher dose than bortezomibin vivo.

  44. Phase I/II Study of Carfilzomib + Lenalidomide + Rituximab in relapsed/refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma Michael Wang, MD Associate Professor Department of Lymphoma/Myeloma MD Anderson Cancer Center

  45. Primary Objectives • Phase 1: To determine the MTD of carfilzomib, lenalidomide and rituximab in patients with relapsed/refractory MCL. • Phase 2: To evaluate the response rate of carfilzomib, lenalidomide and rituximab in patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma. Secondary Objectives • To further evaluate the safety of carfilzomib, lenalidomide and rituximab in combination with rituximab in patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma at the MTD. • To evaluate the survival of mantle cell lymphoma patients treated with carfilzomib, lenalidomide and rituximab.

  46. Study Design • single-center, phase I/II clinical trial • in patients with refractory or relapsed mantle cell lymphoma • In part 1  MTD of this regimen will be determined using a 3+3 algorithm. • In part 2  efficacy of this regimen will be evaluated using Simon’s optimal 2-stage design. • Max. 69 pt. will be enrolled on an intent-to-treat basis • (up to 24 in phase I and 45 patients in phase II) • Estimated time: 20 to 30 months.

  47. Study rationale • Carfilzomib: well tolerated, ORR 78% (in combination with lenalidomide-dex) • Effective in vitro and in vivo preclinical studies • We hypothesized— combining lenalidomide and carfizomib with rituximab  may result in even higher rates as well as deeper responses in MCL patients

  48. Endpoint Analysis Primary endpoint: • To evaluate the frequency and severity of adverse events in Phase I • To evaluate the frequency and severity of adverse events at the MTD • To observe the rate of CR, PR, SD and PD. Secondary endpoint: • To observe the duration of responses, the progressions free survival and overall survival.
