Overview of the management of TCL
1. All TCL are not the same
2. Different subtypes of TCL may need different
treatment strategies
3. There may be intrinsic differences in some
types of TCL in different patient populations
4. Owing to relative rarity of these lymphomas,
large controlled trials have not been
conducted to evaluate the efficacy of different
treatment protocols
Specific subtypes of TCL that may require
different treatment strategies
1. Adult T cell lymphoma / leukaemia
2. Enteropathy associated T cell lymphoma
3. Hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma
4. Subcutaneous panniculitis-like T cell
lymphoma
5. Mycosis fungoides
6. Primary cutaneous T cell lymphomas
The three most common subtypes of Tcell lymphomas
1. Peripheral T cell lymphoma, not
otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS)
2. Angioimmunoblastic T cell
lymphoma (AITL)
3. Anaplastic large cell lymphoma
(ALCL)
Problems of treatment of TCL
1. CHOP designed for conventional aggressive
B-cell lymphoma still used
2. Response is suboptimal, and remissions are
often short-lived
3. Dose dense or escalation on a CHOP
backbone has not been shown to be beneficial
4. High dose chemotherapy + autologous
hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT)
may improve outcome. However, many
patients do not actually make it to HSCT
because of disease progression
Bendamustine
Results From a Prospective, Open-Label, Phase II Trial of
Bendamustine in Refractory or Relapsed T-Cell
Lymphomas: The BENTLY Trial
Damaj et al.
Histologically confirmed peripheral T-cell lymphoma

Retrospective, EBMT multicenter study of 146 patients with
AITL undergoing autologous HSCT
PBHSC: 143 patients; BM: 3 patients
Conditioning: BEAM in most cases
Median follow-up of 31 months (range, 3 to 174 months)
95 patients (65%) remained alive
51 patients (35%) died (disease progression: 42, TRM: 9)

1. High risk patients benefited from autologous HSCT
2. Patients with unfavorable PIT scores did not appear to
benefit from autologous HSCT, and might be considered for
other innovative therapies

Conclusions
1. Autologous HSCT improves outcome of patients with
T-cell lymphomas
2. The improvement, however, is seen mainly in patients
who attain a complete remission, or who have
chemotherapy sensitive disease in an up-front setting
3. The challenge therefore is to get the majority of
patients with T-cell lymphoma into a remission with
optimal chemotherapy
4. Patients with PIT of 2 or more risk factors do not
appear to benefit, and may be considered candidates
for experimental therapy
Allogeneic HSCT

Median follow up of 56 months
6 patients were alive and without evidence of lymphoma
Allogeneic HSCT may induce durable clinical, molecular, and
cytogenetic remissions in patients with advanced cutaneous T-cell
lymphoma refractory to standard therapies
Mycosis fungoides and Sezary syndrome
Duarte et al J Clin Oncol 2010;28:4492-9
EBMT
60 patients (men: 37, women: 23)
Median age: 46.5 years (range 22 – 66 years)
MF (n = 36); SS (n = 24)
Risk categories
44 had TMN stage IV disease
40 patients had advanced disease
Sibling donor (N=45); MUD (N=15)
Myeloablative: 16; Reduced intensity conditioning: 44
T cell depletion: 25
Overall survival: 66% (1 yr) and 54% (3 yr)
RIC gave higher OS
(RIC decreased NRM, without increaseing relapse)
Advanced-phase disease gave lower PFS and OS
(by increasing relapses)
Sibling better than MUD for PFS and OS
T-cell depletion increased relapses
DLI might be effective in relapses
T-cell lymphomas
Jacobsen et al Ann Oncol 2011;22:1608-13
Retrospective analysis
52 patients
Median age: 46 (24 – 72) years
Myeloablative: 31, Reduced intensity conditioning: 21
Nodal (AITL, PTCL-NOS, ALCL): 31
Extranodal (NK/T, EATL, HSTCL, SPTCL, MF): 21
Median follow-up of 49 months
Non-relapse mortality: 27% (3 yr)
Relapse: 43% (3 yr)
3-year progression-free survival was 30%
3-yr PFS: 45% for nodal
3-yr PFS: 6% for extranodal
Overall survival: 41% (3 year)
Allogeneic HSCT can produce long-term remissions in nodal T-cel;l
lymphomas
Conclusions
1. Allogeneic HSCT improves outcome of patients with
nodal T-cell lymphomas
2. Non relapse mortality is increased in patients with
poor performance status
3. In CTCL, HSCT from a sibling donor with reduced
intensity conditioning and performed early in the
disease cause leads to the best outcome
4. Efforts should continue for the definition of an optimal
primary chemotherapy
