BACKGROUND: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a common and often fatal malignancy. The standard-of-care immunochemotherapy, R-CHOP, cures only about 60% of DLBCL patients. Improving this cure rate will likely require the effective translation of basic biology knowledge into clinical activities. We previously identified the cyclic-AMP/phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) axis as an important modulator of lymphomagenic processes. We also showed that the FDA-approved PDE4 inhibitor roflumilast can suppress B-cell receptor (BCR) signals, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activity and angiogenesis. These data suggested that combining roflumilast with R-CHOP may be beneficial in DLBCL.
METHODS: We conducted a single-center, single-arm, open-label, phase 1 study of roflumilast in combination with the standard of care, R-CHOP (Ro+R-CHOP), in pathologically proven, treatment-naïve, high-risk DLBCL patients.
RESULTS: Ro+R-CHOP was safe, and at a median follow-up time of 44 months, 70% of patients were alive and disease free (median OS not reached, PFS 44% (95% CI, 21-92). In this pilot series, we found that the addition of roflumilast suppressed PI3K activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and VEGF-A secretion in the urine. We also encountered preliminary evidence to suggest that the Ro+R-CHOP combination may be particularly beneficial to patients diagnosed with high-risk genetic subtypes of DLBCL, namely MCD and A53.
CONCLUSIONS: These initial findings suggest that roflumilast may be an alternative agent able to inhibit BCR/PI3K activity and angiogenesis in DLBCL, and that the testing of Ro+R-CHOP in a larger series of genetically characterized tumors is warranted. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT03458546.
