Abstract
Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a rare type of extranodal large B-cell lymphoma that is characterized by the proliferation of lymphoma cells in the lumina of small vessels. Recent progress uncovering the genetic characteristics associated with MYD88/CD79B mutations has stimulated interest in the use of drugs targeting B-cell receptor signaling, including Bruton's tyrosine kinase. However, difficulties in culturing ex vivo IVLBCL cells has hampered research on the development of novel therapies. In the present study, we demonstrated the establishment of an ex vivo culture system of IVLBCL cells obtained from patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The spheroid culture enabled us to culture IVLBCL PDX cells for more than 10 days and to explore the efficacy of drug treatments acting on these cells. We found that carfilzomib and ibrutinib were effective for treating IVLBCL in ex vivo experiments and conducted in vivo analyses to assess the efficacy of these drugs. Although the efficacy of carfilzomib was difficult to confirm due to its toxicity in our models, ibrutinib showed comparable efficacy to a standard combination of chemotherapy drugs. Together, our data provide a new culture method for IVLBCL PDX cells and a rationale for translating ibrutinib to clinical use in IVLBCL patients.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Science (formerly Japanese Journal of Cancer Research) is a monthly publication of the Japanese Cancer Association. First published in 1907, the Journal continues to publish original articles, editorials, and letters to the editor, describing original research in the fields of basic, translational and clinical cancer research. The Journal also accepts reports and case reports.
Cancer Science aims to present highly significant and timely findings that have a significant clinical impact on oncologists or that may alter the disease concept of a tumor. The Journal will not publish case reports that describe a rare tumor or condition without new findings to be added to previous reports; combination of different tumors without new suggestive findings for oncological research; remarkable effect of already known treatments without suggestive data to explain the exceptional result. Review articles may also be published.
