          Abstract

          Mogamulizumab is a defucosylated humanized anti-CC chemokine receptor type 4 (CCR4) antibody that exerts an anti-tumor immune effect against various tumors through a suppressive effect on regulatory T-cells. We herein report a patient with peripheral T-cell lymphoma who developed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-related primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the central nervous system (CNS DLBCL) after mogamulizumab therapy. Our experience should alert physicians to the possibility of the development of EBV-related CNS DLBCL in patients treated for primary lymphoma and suggests that the anti-tumor immune effect of mogamulizumab is ineffective for the prophylaxis of EBV-related lymphomas.

          Defucosylated anti-CCR4 monoclonal antibody exercises potent ADCC-mediated antitumor effect in the novel tumor-bearing humanized NOD/Shi- scid, IL-2Rγ null mouse model

          Purpose There are no suitable small animal models to evaluate human antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) in vivo, due to species incompatibilities. Thus, the first aim of this study was to establish a human tumor-bearing mouse model in which human immune cells can engraft and mediate ADCC, but where the endogenous mouse immune cells cannot mediate ADCC. The second aim was to evaluate ADCC mediated in these humanized mice by the defucosylated anti-CC chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) monoclonal antibody (mAb) which we have developed and which is now in phase I clinical trials. Experimental design NOD/Shi- scid , IL-2Rγ null (NOG) mice were the recipients of human immune cells, and CCR4-expressing Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) cell lines were used as target tumors. Results Humanized mice have been established using NOG mice. The chimeric defucosylated anti-CCR4 mAb KM2760 showed potent antitumor activity mediated by robust ADCC in these humanized mice bearing the HL or CTCL cell lines. KM2760 significantly increased the number of tumor-infiltrating CD56-positive NK cells which mediate ADCC, and reduced the number of tumor-infiltrating FOXP3-positive regulatory T (Treg) cells in HL-bearing humanized mice. Conclusions Anti-CCR4 mAb could be an ideal treatment modality for many different cancers, not only to directly kill CCR4-expressing tumor cells, but also to overcome the suppressive effect of Treg cells on the host immune response to tumor cells. In addition, using our humanized mice, we can perform the appropriate preclinical evaluation of many types of antibody based immunotherapy.

            Reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma patients with resolved HBV infection following systemic chemotherapy.

            Reactivation of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection may occur in adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL) patients with resolved HBV infection who receive monotherapy with the anti-CC chemokine receptor 4 monoclonal antibody, mogamulizumab. However, there is little evidence regarding the incidence and characteristics of HBV reactivation in ATL patients receiving systemic chemotherapy, including the use of this antibody. We conducted a retrospective study for 24 ATL patients with resolved HBV infection underwent regular HBV DNA monitoring to assess HBV reactivation in Nagoya City University Hospital between January 2005 and June 2013. With median HBV DNA follow-up of 238 days (range 57-1420), HBV reactivation (defined as the detection of HBV DNA) was observed in three (12.5 %) of 24 patients with resolved HBV infection. No hepatitis due to HBV reactivation occurred in those patients who were diagnosed with HBV DNA levels below 2.1 log copies/mL and who received antiviral drugs. Mogamulizumab was administered prior to HBV reactivation in two of three HBV-reactivated patients. In the mogamulizumab era, further well-designed prospective studies are warranted to estimate the incidence of HBV reactivation and to establish regular HBV DNA monitoring-guided preemptive antiviral therapy for such patients.

              Primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the immunocompetent: Immunophenotypic subtypes and Epstein-Barr virus association

              Introduction: Primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PCNSL DLBCL) in the immunocompetent is an uncommon tumor that has an activated B-cell immunophenotype resembling germinal center exit B cells. They also differ from primary central nervous diffuse large B-cell lymphomas in the immunocompromised as they show no association with the Epstein-Barr virus. Objective: To determine if immunophenotypic subtyping of PCNS DLBCL from Asian subcontinent are also different similar to its systemic counterpart is unclear, as there are only limited studies from Asia, and none from India. Material and Methods: The immunohistochemical profile of 24 South Indian patients with primary central nervous system diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was studied using germinal center markers – CD10 and Bcl-6, and activation markers – MUM1 and CD138, which are markers for late/post germinal centre B cells. Insitu hybridization for EBV genome and LMP1 by immunohistochemistry was carried out in all cases to determine association with EBV. Results: Centroblastic morphology and uniform activated B-cell phenotype with positivity for MUM1 was seen in 91.6% of tumors. Co-expression of Bcl-6 and MUM1 was evident in 50%, which is more frequent than in systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. All cases were negative for Epstein-Barr virus using EBER in-situ hybridization and LMP1 immunohistochemistry. Conclusion: Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the immunocompetent is a distinct clinicopathological entity with centroblastic morphology, a uniform activated B-cell immunophenotype that is not associated with the Epstein-Barr virus regardless of geographic origin.
