Chidamide triggers BTG1-mediated autophagy and reverses the chemotherapy resistance in the relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Rituximab/chemotherapy relapsed and refractory B cell lymphoma patients have a poor overall prognosis, and it is urgent to develop novel drugs for improving the therapy outcomes. Here, we examined the therapeutic effects of chidamide, a new histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, on the cell and mouse models of rituximab/chemotherapy resistant B-cell lymphoma. In Raji-4RH/RL-4RH cells, the rituximab/chemotherapy resistant B-cell lymphoma cell lines (RRCL), chidamide treatment induced growth inhibition and G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. The primary B-cell lymphoma cells from Rituximab/chemotherapy relapsed patients were sensitive to chidamide. Interestingly, chidamide triggered the cell death with the activation of autophagy in RRCLs, likely due to the lack of the pro-apoptotic proteins. Based on the RNA-seq and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis, we identified BTG1 and FOXO1 as chidamide target genes, which control the autophagy and the cell cycle, respectively. Moreover, the combination of chidamide with the chemotherapy drug cisplatin increased growth inhibition on the RRCL in a synergistic manner, and significantly reduced the tumor burden of a mouse lymphoma model established with engraftment of RRCL. Taken together, these results provide a theoretic and mechanistic basis for further evaluation of the chidamide-based treatment in rituximab/chemotherapy relapsed and refractory B-cell lymphoma patients.

Project description:IntroductionRelapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) has poor clinical outcomes when treated with conventional salvage chemotherapy. Monotherapy using zanubrutinib, a selective Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, has achieved modest antitumor effect in R/R DLBCL. Here we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy in R/R DLBCL patients.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed R/R DLBCL patients who were administered with zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy in our center between January, 2019 and December, 2021. Targeted panel sequencing of 11 lymphoma-related genes was performed on 8 patients with poor responses to zanubrutinib-based chemotherapy.Results27 R/R DLBCL patients were enrolled. Median age at this study was 59 years (range, 15-72). The best overall response rate (ORR) was 74.1% and complete remission rate was 33.3%. With a median follow-up of 11 months (range, 1-17), the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.1 months, and the overall survival (OS) was not achieved. The most common grade-3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (70.4%), thrombocytopenia (66.7%), and febrile neutropenia (33.3%). In multivariate analysis, early treatment and overall response after chemotherapy were independent favorable prognostic factors for PFS. Overall response after chemotherapy was an independent favorable factor for OS. Among the 8 patients with poor response to zanubrutinib-based treatment, the majority of patients had NOTCH2 mutations (n=8, 100%) and TP53 mutations (n=7, 87.5%). However, these patients achieved an ORR of 75% at 3 months after CD19-CAR-T cell therapy (including 4 cases of complete remission and 2 cases of partial remission). With a median follow-up of 9 months from CAR-T cell infusion (range, 1-16 months), the median PFS was 14.5 months, and the median OS was not reached.ConclusionWith high efficacy and manageable tolerability, zanubrutinib plus salvage chemotherapy may be a potential treatment option for R/R DLBCL. CAR-T cell therapy may be a priority strategy for these poor responders to BTKi-based treatment.
