Current and emerging therapeutic approaches for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
    British journal of haematology, 2021, Volume: 194, Issue:1

    T-cell ALL (T-ALL) is an aggressive malignancy of T-cell progenitors. Although survival outcomes in T-ALL have greatly improved over the past 50 years, relapsed and refractory cases remain extremely challenging to treat and those who cannot tolerate intensive treatment continue to have poor outcomes. Furthermore, T-ALL has proven a more challenging immunotherapeutic target than B-ALL. In this review we explore our expanding knowledge of the basic biology of T-ALL and how this is paving the way for repurposing established treatments and the development of novel therapeutic approaches.

Successful nelarabine and venetoclax treatment of a relapsed/refractory mediastinal myeloid sarcoma with clonal TCR rearrangement.
    Anti-cancer drugs, 2021, 11-01, Volume: 32, Issue:10

    Myeloid sarcomas represent a heterogeneous group of diseases with a tumoral presentation of acute myeloid leukemia. The clinical presentation of these hematologic cancers is typically aggressive and thus rapidly fatal in the absence of treatment, which relies on intensive chemotherapy that is sometimes followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplant (AHSCT). However, the global treatment strategy for these lesions is currently not well established. We report the case of a patient presenting with a highly refractory mediastinal myeloid sarcoma with uncommon morphologic and phenotypic characteristics and a clonal TCR rearrangement. The patient's disease was progressive despite multiple courses of intensive chemotherapy and a combination of nelarabine and venetoclax finally led to a complete metabolic response consolidated by an AHSCT. This treatment regimen, which has never been reported before, was very well tolerated especially on the neurologic and hematologic levels. This case underlines the clinical, histologic and molecular heterogeneity of what is called myeloid sarcoma and the importance of next-generation sequencing analysis of the tumor mass with both myeloid and lymphoid panels to better classify this rare entity and identify therapeutic targets.

Improving nelarabine efficacy in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia by targeting aberrant PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
    Journal of hematology & oncology, 2016, 10-24, Volume: 9, Issue:1

    Although in recent years, the introduction of novel chemotherapy protocols has improved the outcome of T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patients, refractory and/or relapsing disease remains a foremost concern. In this context, a major contribution was provided by the introduction of the nucleoside analog nelarabine, approved for salvage treatment of T-ALL patients with refractory/relapsed disease. However, nelarabine could induce a life-threatening, dose-dependent neurotoxicity. To improve nelarabine efficacy, we have analyzed its molecular targets, testing selective inhibitors of such targets in combination with nelarabine.. The effectiveness of nelarabine as single agent or in combination with PI3K, Bcl2, and MEK inhibitors was evaluated on human T-ALL cell lines and primary T-ALL refractory/relapsed lymphoblasts. The efficacy of signal modulators in terms of cytotoxicity, induction of apoptosis, and changes in gene and protein expression was assessed by flow cytometry, western blotting, and quantitative real-time PCR in T-ALL settings.. Treatment with nelarabine as a single agent identified two groups of T-ALL cell lines, one sensitive and one resistant to the drug. Whereas sensitive T-ALL cells showed a significant increase of apoptosis and a strong down-modulation of PI3K signaling, resistant T-ALL cells showed a hyperactivation of AKT and MEK/ERK1/2 signaling pathways, not caused by differences in the expression of nelarabine transporters or metabolic activators. We then studied the combination of nelarabine with the PI3K inhibitors (both pan and dual γ/δ inhibitors), with the Bcl2 specific inhibitor ABT199, and with the MEK inhibitor trametinib on both T-ALL cell lines and patient samples at relapse, which displayed constitutive activation of PI3K signaling and resistance to nelarabine alone. The combination with the pan PI3K inhibitor ZSTK-474 was the most effective in inhibiting the growth of T-ALL cells and was synergistic in decreasing cell survival and inducing apoptosis in nelarabine-resistant T-ALL cells. The drug combination caused AKT dephosphorylation and a downregulation of Bcl2, while nelarabine alone induced an increase in p-AKT and Bcl2 signaling in the resistant T-ALL cells and relapsed patient samples.. These findings indicate that nelarabine in combination with PI3K inhibitors may be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of T-ALL relapsed patients.
