However, the emergence of resistance to BTKi has introduced an unmet therapeutic need. Here we demonstrate in vitro and in vivo the essential roles of PI3K-δ for CLL B-cell survival and migration and of PI3K-γ in T-cell migration and macrophage polarization; and more ecacious inhibition in CLL-cell burden by dual inhibition of PI3K-δ,γ.

Efforts to mitigate this cancer hallmark have been ongoing for decades, focused mostly on inhibiting BCL-2, a key anti-apoptosis effector. The approval of venetoclax, a selective BCL-2 inhibitor, for clinical use has been a turning point in the field of oncology. While resulting in impressive improvement in objective outcomes, particularly for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma and acute myeloid leukemia, the use of venetoclax has exposed a variety of resistance mechanisms to BCL-2 inhibition. As the field continues to move forward, improved understanding of such mechanisms and the potential biomarkers that could be harnessed to optimize patient selection for therapies that include venetoclax and next-generation BCL-2 inhibitors are gaining increased importance. Abstract: Intrinsic apoptotic pathway dysregulation plays an essential role in all cancers, particularly hematologic malignancies. This role has led to the development of multiple therapeutic agents Citation: Salah, H.T.; DiNardo, C.D.; targeting this pathway.

The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the authors, who are responsible for its content, and do not necessarily represent the views of AHRQ. No statement in this report should be construed as an official position of AHRQ or of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. A novel intervention may not appear in this report simply because the System has not yet detected it. The list of novel interventions in the Horizon Scanning Status Update Report will change over time as new information is collected. This should not be construed as either endorsements or rejections of specific interventions. As topics are entered into the System, individual target technology reports are developed for those that appear to be closer to diffusion into practice in the United States. A representative from AHRQ served as a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative and provided input during the implementation of the horizon scanning system.

    cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 Treating Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma If you’ve been diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, your treatment team will discuss your options with you. It’s important to weigh the benefits of each treatment option against the possible risks and side effects. How is non-Hodgkin lymphoma treated? Depending on the type and stage (extent) of the lymphoma and other factors, treatment options for people with NHL might include: ● Chemotherapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Immunotherapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Targeted Drug Therapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Radiation Therapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● High-Dose Chemotherapy and Stem Cell Transplant for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Surgery for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Common treatment approaches Treatment approaches for NHL depend on the type of cancer, how advanced it is, as well as your health and other factors. Another important part of treatment for many people is palliative or supportive care. This can help prevent or treat problems such as infections, low blood cell counts, or some symptoms caused by the lymphoma. ● Treating B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Treating T-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma ● Treating HIV-Associated Lymphoma 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 ● Palliative and Supportive Care for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma Who treats non-Hodgkin lymphoma? Based on your treatment options, you may have different types of doctors on your treatment team. These doctors could include: ● A medical oncologist or hematologist: a doctor who treats lymphoma with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and targeted therapy. ● A radiation oncologist: a doctor who treats cancer with radiation therapy. ● A bone marrow transplant doctor: a doctor who specializes in treating cancer or other diseases with bone marrow or stem cell transplants.

Vangapandu1, Nitin Jain2, and Varsha Gandhi1,* 1Department of Experimental Therapeutics, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, 77054 2Department of Leukemia, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX 77030 Abstract Introduction—Frontline chemotherapy is successful against chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), but results in untoward toxicity. Further, prognostic factors, cytogenetic anomalies, and compensatory cellular signaling lead to therapy resistance or disease relapse. Therefore, for the past few years, development of targeted therapies is on the rise. PI3K is a major player in the B- cell receptor (BCR) signaling axis, which is critical for the survival and maintenance of B cells. Duvelisib, a PI3K δ/γ dual isoform specific inhibitor that induces apoptosis and reduces cytokine and chemokine levels in vitro, holds promise for CLL. Areas covered—Herein, we review PI3K isoforms and their inhibitors in general, and duvelisib in particular; examine literature on preclinical investigations, pharmacokinetics and clinical studies of duvelisib either as single agent or in combination, for patients with CLL and other lymphoid malignancies. Expert opinion—Duvelisib targets the PI3K δ isoform, which is necessary for cell proliferation and survival, and γ isoform, which is critical for cytokine signaling and pro-inflammatory responses from the microenvironment.
