Gonzalez, Hanna Bailey, Omar Castaneda Puglianini","doi":"10.33590/EMJHEMATOL/20-00231","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33590/EMJHEMATOL/20-00231","url":null,"abstract":"Multiple myeloma (MM) continues to be an incurable disease impacting mainly an ageing population. Comorbidities, disease characteristics, and drug toxicity profiles heavily influence treatment selections. Despite single agent activity of many anti-MM agents, opportunities to maintain responses most often include combination therapy with immunomodulator and/or proteasome inhibitor therapies. Monoclonal antibodies (moAb) have become an additional backbone to both newly diagnosed and relapsed or refractory transplant eligible and ineligible patients. Tolerability of these agents offers an additional benefit particularly to an ageing population. Two newly approved moAb targeting CD38 and B-cell maturation antigen have been added to the anti-MM arsenal. Isatuximab, a chimeric anti-CD38 moAb, is the second U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved CD38 targeted therapy offering unique mechanisms of action owing to differences in epitope binding and favourable side effect profiles. Belantamab mafodotin, a B-cell maturation antigen drug-antibody conjugate, is a first-in-class humanised moAb containing a distinct microtubule-disrupting agent: monomethyl auristatin-F. Its distinctive anti-MM activity includes antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and phagocytosis, as well as direct cytotoxicity caused by internalisation of monomethyl auristatin-F. This review focusses primarily on the mechanisms of action, resistance patterns, and clinical utility of two recently FDA approved agents; isatuximab in combination with pomalidomide and dexamethasone for relapsed or refractory MM exposed to at least two or more lines of therapy, and belantamab mafodotin monotherapy in relapsed or refractory MM exposed to four or more lines of therapy.","PeriodicalId":326555,"journal":{"name":"EMJ Hematology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113966604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thrombosis is the leading cause of death in PNH. Terminal complement pathway inhibition with eculizumab controls most of the symptoms of haemolysis and the life-threatening complications of PNH. However, there is still no consensus about haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in the management of PNH; it is the only potentially curative therapy for PNH. There are limited data and few case series about both the long-term outcomes of HSCT for PNH and the impacts of conditioning regimens on PNH clones.

The infantile type is usually diagnosed early in life, while adult type is diagnosed in late adolescence or adulthood. Approximately one-half of patients are asymptomatic and the diagnosis is made incidentally.

Clinical presentation ranges from mild skin rash to multiorgan failure. Regardless of the clinical presentation or severity of the disease, patients with SLE often require life-long treatment. Current treatment recommendations for SLE include hydroxychloroquine, glucocorticoids, immunomodulatory agents, cyclophosphamide, and biologic agents. Despite availability of these agents, the condition of some patients with SLE progressively worsens. With limited treatment options, new and novel therapeutic approaches are needed. Given the active role of B cells in the pathophysiology of SLE, they present an attractive target for therapies evolving in the oncology field. Amongst these, immune effector cell therapies, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, have proven beneficial in targeting B cells. The eradication of B cells, along with the potential for T cell persistence, has resulted in prolonged remission or stable disease. This review provides an overview of the pathophysiology of SLE; current treatment options, including monoclonal antibodies targeting cluster of differentiation-20 (CD20), CD22, and B cell-activating factor (BAFF); and explores why and how immune effector cell therapies may prove a promising therapeutic option for this patient population, particularly for individuals with refractory disease. Clinical implications from currently approved U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) agents for haematologic malignancies are discussed and provide insight into considerations for applying this therapy to the patient population with SLE in the context of clinical trials.","PeriodicalId":326555,"journal":{"name":"EMJ Hematology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132866879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
