Primary NK/T cell lymphoma nasal type of the colon
Since nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma and NK/T-cell lymphoma nasal type are rare diseases, colonic involvement has seldom been seen. We report a case of a patient with a primary NK/T-cell lymphoma nasal type of the colon. The patient had no history of malignant diseases and was diagnosed after exhaustive study in the context of fever of unknown origin. The first therapeutic approach followed the DAEPOCH-protocol: etoposide, prednisone, doxor-rubicin, vincristine and cyclophosphamide. The persistence of constitutional symptoms after the first treatment course motivated the switch to a second line following the SMILE-protocol: dexamethasone, metotrexate, ifosfamide, <em>E.coli</em> L-asparaginase, and etoposide. Despite intensive chemotherapy, the patient died 2 months after the diagnose of an extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma of the colon and 4 months after the first symptomatic appearance of disease
Venetoclax-resistant CLL cells show a highly activated and proliferative phenotype
Venetoclax treatment has demonstrated efficacy and a safety profile in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients, however the emergence of resistant cells is a current complication. We and others, previously reported that the activation of CLL cells by signals that mimic microenvironment stimuli favors the upregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins from B cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) family that are not targeted by venetoclax, reducing malignant cell sensitivity to the drug. We here studied venetoclax-resistant CLL cells generated in vitro by autologous activated T lymphocytes, and found that they showed an aggressive phenotype characterized by increased expression of activation and proliferation markers. Moreover, surviving cells expressed high levels of B cell lymphoma-extra-large (BCL-XL) and/or myeloid cell leukemia-1 (MCL-1), and a sustained resistance to a second treatment with the drug. Interestingly, the spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor entospletinib, and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3KÎŽ) inhibitor idelalisib, reduced T cell activation, impaired the generation of leukemic cells with this aggressive phenotype, and were able to restore CLL sensitivity to venetoclax. Our data highlight a novel combination to overcome resistance to venetoclax in CLL.Fil: ElĂas, Esteban Enrique. Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones CientĂficas y TĂ©cnicas.
