Multi‐agent chemotherapy (vincristine, epirubicin and prednisolone) including either cyclophosphamide (CEOP) or lomustine (LEOP) was given as first‐line chemotherapy to treatment‐naïve canine lymphoma patients with measurable, high grade T‐cell lymphoma (HGTCL). All patients responded to either CEOP or LEOP. Toxicity was typical of multi‐agent chemotherapy protocols and 25% of dogs receiving lomustine exhibited mild‐to‐moderate ALT elevation and 29% grade 3 or 4 neutropenia. Median progression‐free survival (100 versus 269 days) and overall survival (155 versus 327 days) were significantly higher in patients receiving LEOP compared to CEOP. Overall survival was improved for patients receiving LEOP compared to those receiving CEOP followed by lomustine‐based rescue therapy. The results of this retrospective study support further evaluation of lomustine as part of first‐line, multi‐agent therapy for patients with HGTCL.  相似文献

Multi‐drug chemotherapy protocols for feline lymphoma have demonstrated variable efficacy and tolerability. In phase I trials, lomustine has demonstrated efficacy for cats with lymphoma though its use for treatment naïve feline intermediate/large cell gastrointestinal (GI) lymphoma remains unknown. This study evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of lomustine for the treatment of feline GI lymphoma. Thirty‐two cats with histologically or cytologically confirmed intermediate/large cell GI lymphoma were evaluated retrospectively. Factors assessed included clinical signs, hematologic/biochemical parameters and use of l ‐asparaginase at induction. A response rate of 50% (16/32), with median duration of response of 302 days (range 64–1450 days), was found. Median progression‐free interval was 132 days (range 31–1450 days), with overall median survival time of 108 days (range 4–1488 days). History of hyporexia, presence of anaemia and dose of lomustine were significantly associated with progression‐free survival. Overall, lomustine is a well‐tolerated and effective treatment for feline GI lymphoma.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Canine lymphoma (LSA) is responsive to initial treatment, however, it then becomes resistant to drugs in the initial protocol. New rescue protocols are needed. HYPOTHESIS: A combination of L-asparaginase, lomustine, and prednisone will be well tolerated and efficacious as a rescue therapy for dogs with LSA. ANIMALS: Thirty-one client owned dogs with cytologically confirmed multicentric LSA who were refractory or whose disease had relapsed after a CHOP (cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/vincristine/prednisone)-based chemotherapy protocol. METHODS: Prospective clinical trial. Lomustine (target dose, 70 mg/m2) was administered orally at 3-week intervals for a total of 5 doses or until disease progression. L-asparaginase (400 U/kg) was administered subcutaneously concurrently with the first 2 lomustine treatments. Prednisone was administered at a tapering dose for the duration of the protocol. RESULTS: Overall response rate for dogs treated with this protocol was 87% (27/31), with 52% (16/31) of dogs achieving a complete response. Median time to response was 21 days. Median time to progression was 63 days (111 days for dogs achieving a complete response and 42 days for dogs achieving a partial response). There were no significant differences in response rates and times to progression between dogs who had received L-asparaginase before beginning this rescue protocol and those who had not. Toxicoses were mild and self-limiting in 29 of 31 cases. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: This is a well-tolerated rescue therapy for relapsing LSA in dogs. Response rates and remission durations compare favorably to other rescue protocols. Therefore, this protocol is a viable rescue option.  相似文献

This study examined the efficacy of doxorubicin-based chemotherapy used for rescue therapy in refractory feline lymphoma. Records of 23 cats with lymphoma treated with chemotherapy who received doxorubicin for the first time in a rescue setting were reviewed. Seventeen (74%) of the 23 cats had only one treatment of doxorubicin. Five (22%) of the 23 cats had a positive response to doxorubicin and were given additional doses. The response to therapy in 4/5 of these responders could be assessed objectively, of which, two cats (9%) achieved partial remission (PR) and two cats (9%) achieved complete remission (CR). The two cats that achieved CR had differing response durations (6 weeks and greater than 47 months). Three of these five (60%) responders had also received concurrent other chemotherapy in addition to doxorubicin. Cell type and the use of concurrent chemotherapy were significant predictors of response. Cats with small-medium cell lymphomas (P=0.001) and cats that received concurrent chemotherapy with doxorubicin rescue (P=0.007) were more likely to respond favorably. This study suggests that doxorubicin-based chemotherapy is not an effective rescue protocol for feline lymphoma.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate response rate and disease-free interval in dogs with relapsed or resistant lymphoma treated with actinomycin D, determine hematologic toxicoses, and identify prognostic factors associated with response to treatment. DESIGN: Retrospective case series. ANIMALS: 49 dogs with relapsed or resistant lymphoma. PROCEDURES: Medical records were reviewed for information regarding signalment, physical examination findings, results of diagnostic testing, substage, previous chemotherapy, previous treatment with prednisone, actinomycin D dosage, number of doses administered, response, disease-free interval, and results of CBCs performed after treatment. RESULTS: Actinomycin D was administered at a median dosage of 0.68 mg/m2 (range, 0.46 to 0.72 mg/m2), IV, every 3 weeks for 5 treatments or until disease progression. Twenty-six (53%) dogs received prednisone concurrently. Twenty (41%) dogs had a complete remission, and median disease-free interval in these dogs was 129 days. Thrombocytopenia was the most common hematologic toxicosis (n = 22 [45%]). Concurrent prednisone administration, a shorter duration of first remission, and an increased number of previous chemotherapy agents were significantly associated with a lower likelihood of responding to actinomycin D treatment. Concurrent prednisone administration and an increased number of previous chemotherapy agents were significantly associated with a shorter disease-free interval. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggested that administration of actinomycin D as a single agent was effective for rescue chemotherapy of dogs with relapsed or resistant lymphoma and that treatment was well tolerated, although mild thrombocytopenia developed commonly.  相似文献

Nineteen cats with relapsed high‐grade/large‐cell lymphoma were treated with dexamethasone, melphalan, actinomycin‐D and cytarabine (DMAC). All cats had received Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Prednisolone (COP) as first‐line chemotherapy and most cats had received at least 2 prior rescue agents with 14 of 19 having received both epirubicin and lomustine. Five cats (26%) exhibited a response (defined as an improvement or resolution of tumour‐associated clinical signs/tumour volume, or complete/partial response) to chemotherapy though no patients received more than 2 cycles of DMAC. Most cats tolerated the protocol well though 3 patients exhibited Veterinary Cooperative Oncology Group (VCOG) grade 4 neutropenia and 1 patient exhibited grade 4 thrombocytopenia. The median progression‐free survival and overall survival from starting DMAC were 14 and 17 days respectively. There is still an unmet need for successful rescue chemotherapy protocol for cats with relapsed lymphoma. [Correction added on 02 November 2017, after first online publication: The expansion for the term DMAC was previously incorrect and has been corrected in this current version.]  相似文献

Background: The combination of lomustine, l -asparaginase, and prednisone (LAP) is an effective rescue treatment for canine lymphoma (LSA). In a previous study, we reported that remission was typically lost around the time l -asparaginase was discontinued.
Hypothesis: Use of l -asparaginase with each lomustine treatment will be well tolerated and efficacious as a rescue therapy for canine LSA.
Animals: Forty-eight client-owned dogs with cytologically confirmed multicentric LSA whose disease had relapsed after a cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone-based chemotherapy protocol were included.
Methods: Lomustine was administered orally at 3-week intervals, concurrently with subcutaneous or intramuscular l -asparaginase for a total of 5 doses or until disease progression. Prednisone was administered at a tapering dose for the duration of the protocol.
Results: The overall response rate (ORR) for dogs treated with this protocol was 77%, with 65% achieving a complete response (CR). The median time to progression (TTP) was 70 days. Based on loose comparison, these findings are not significantly different from our previously reported historical control. The actual CCNU dosage administered did not affect response rate or remission duration.
Conclusions/Clinical Importance: These findings support previous data concluding that the LAP protocol is a viable rescue treatment option for dogs with LSA. However, results from this study suggest that continued use of l -asparaginase with each lomustine treatment does not significantly increase remission duration and toxicity appears greater.  相似文献

Canine lymphoma is a heterogeneous group of diseases and many previous studies have evaluated the response of a mixed population of lymphoma cases to one specific treatment protocol. The aim of this retrospective study was to describe the outcome and prognostic factors in 42 cases of multicentric centroblastic diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma treated with either a COP‐type (35%) or CHOP‐type (64%) induction chemotherapy. The objective response rate to induction therapy was 94%; entire dogs had a greater rate of complete vs partial remissions than neutered dogs (P = .017). Median progression‐free survival for the first remission (PFS1) was 182 days; absence of anaemia at diagnosis (P = .002) and pretreatment neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio (NLR) below 9.44 (P = .015) were independently predictive of longer PFS1. Fifty‐eight percent of dogs received rescue protocols with an objective response rate of 81%; 31% of dogs received further rescue protocols (up to a total of 5) and the median number of protocols administered were 2. Median overall survival (OS) was 322 days, the 1‐year survival rate was 38% and the 2‐year survival rate was 9%. Lymphocyte:monocyte ratio above 1.43 (P = .031), NLR below 11.44 (P = .009), the combination of induction and rescue therapy (P = .030) and the total number of doxorubicin doses used (P = .002) were independently predictive of longer OS. Use of a COP‐type protocol induction compared with CHOP did not undermine OS providing doxorubicin was used as rescue therapy.  相似文献

The current standard of care treatment for canine lymphoma is a multi-agent, CHOP-based chemotherapy protocol. Single agent doxorubicin (DOX) is less burdensome; however, multi-agent chemotherapy protocols are often superior. The recently approved drug rabacfosadine (RAB, Tanovea) provides an attractive option for combination therapy with DOX, as both drugs demonstrate efficacy against lymphoma and possess different mechanisms of action. A previous study evaluating alternating RAB/DOX reported an overall response rate (ORR) of 84%, with a median progression-free survival time (PFS) of 194 days. The aim of this prospective trial was to evaluate the same protocol in an additional population of dogs. Fifty-nine dogs with treatment naïve lymphoma were enrolled. RAB (1.0 mg/kg IV) was alternated with DOX (30 mg/m2 IV) every 21 days for up to six total treatments (3 cycles). Response assessment and adverse event (AE) evaluation were performed every 21 days using VCOG criteria. The ORR was 93% (79% CR, 14% PR). The median time to maximal response was 21.5 days; median PFS was 199 days. T cell immunophenotype and lack of treatment response were predictive of inferior outcomes. AEs were mostly gastrointestinal. Six dogs developed presumed or confirmed pulmonary fibrosis; four were grade 5. One dog experienced grade 3 extravasation injury with RAB that resolved with supportive treatment. These data mirror those of the previously reported RAB/DOX study, and support the finding that alternating RAB/DOX is a reasonable treatment option for canine lymphoma.  相似文献

Methods of calculating and reporting dose intensity (DI) of CHOP-based protocols in the veterinary literature vary. The goal of this retrospective study is to examine the prognostic significance of the average percentage of planned DI received in a cohort of canine T-cell lymphoma patients treated with a modified CHOP protocol with corresponding toxicity and efficacy data. Our data set of 40 dogs was analysed using various previously published methods for calculating DI. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 91 and 196 days, respectively. Receiving a higher percentage of planned DI was not found to be associated with patient outcome. Outcomes remain poor for dogs with T-cell lymphoma treated with CHOP-based chemotherapy irrespective of received DI. Standard methods of DI calculation and reporting should be adopted in veterinary oncology to enable repeatable and rigorous comparisons of published chemotherapy protocols and to ascertain the potential prognostic relevance of DI in canine lymphoma patients.  相似文献

The aims of this study were to report treatment outcomes for dogs with histiocytic sarcoma (HS) treated with both lomustine and epirubicin, and to report response rates to epirubicin as a rescue therapy in dogs previously treated with lomustine. Medical records of dogs with a diagnosis of HS that were treated with both lomustine and epirubicin were retrospectively evaluated. Of 29 dogs receiving epirubicin alternating with, or subsequent to lomustine treatment, including in a rescue setting, response to epirubicin could be assessed in 20 with an overall response rate (ORR) of 29% and biological response rate (BRR) of 71%. Median time to progression (TTP) in 12 of these 20 dogs in which it was assessable was 69 days (range: 40‐125 days). For dogs treated in the rescue setting epirubicin specific ORR was 19% and BRR 63%. Median TTP in the 9 of these 16 dogs in which it was assessable was 62 days (range: 40‐125 days). Median survival time for all dogs treated with both epirubicin and lomustine was 185 days (range: 27‐500 days). Some dogs with HS respond to epirubicin and dogs treated with combinations of epirubicin and lomustine have modestly improved survival times compared with single agent studies, and similar to dogs with HS treated with alternating lomustine and doxorubicin. Single agent epirubicin is also a valid short term rescue therapy for canine HS.  相似文献

The study purpose was to determine the prognostic significance of weight changes during feline lymphoma treatment. A secondary purpose was to compare weight changes according to baseline body weight, cell type and location. Records of 209 cats treated for lymphoma with chemotherapy from 1995 to 2007 were evaluated. Signalment, cell type, lymphoma location, baseline body weight, weight during treatment, and outcome information were collected. Lymphoma specific survival (LSS) was compared according to baseline weight and weight changes during treatment. Weight change over time was compared according to cell type (small versus large), location (gastrointestinal versus non-gastrointestinal) and baseline weight. Cats with large cell lymphoma that lost ≥ 5% body weight at 1 month had significantly shorter LSS than those that gained or had stable weight (P = 0.004). Percentage weight change over time differed significantly according to baseline weight group. These findings demonstrate the prognostic importance of weight loss in feline large cell lymphoma.  相似文献

Forty-three dogs with lymphoma that had relapsed or had failed to achieve complete remission to previous chemotherapy were treated with lomustine (1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea [CCNU]) at a dosage of 90-100 mg/m2 body surface area p.o. every 3 weeks. Durable complete or partial responses occurred in 11 dogs for a median of 86 days. The acutely dose-limiting toxicosis was neutropenia 7 days after administration, resulting in a recommended dosage of 90 mg/m2. Cumulative thrombocytopenia occurred in dogs receiving continued CCNU treatment, and a dose interval of 3 weeks may be too short for continued administration of this drug. Toxicoses evident as fever or central nervous system signs or renal damage were uncommon or rare. CCNU is effective in the treatment of relapsed lymphoma.  相似文献

Introduction:  MOPP chemotherapy is useful for relapsed canine lymphoma. This study evaluates the efficacy of this protocol after substitution of CCNU (lomustine) or BiCNU (carmustine) for mechlorethamine (C/B‐OPP).
Methods:  Patient signalment, response to chemotherapy, toxicity and survival data were abstracted from medical records of dogs from receiving C/B‐OPP between 1998 and 2004.
Results:  Fifty‐eight dogs received C/B‐OPP rescue chemotherapy during the study period. The median remission duration after initial chemotherapy, consisting of CHOP‐based therapy in 91% of dogs, was 133 days (range, 10 to 932 days). Thirty‐eight of fifty‐eight dogs (66%) responded to C/B‐OPP rescue after relapse (22 CR, 16 PR), for a median of 48 days (range, 2 to 359 days). Overall, C/B‐OPP extended survival by a median of 90 days (range, 2 to 426 days). Twenty‐four dogs (41%) experienced one or more episodes of Grade II or higher gastrointestinal toxicity. Forty‐one dogs (71%) experienced one or more episodes of Grade II or higher hematologic toxicity. Twelve dogs (20%) developed regenerative anemia with diarrhea consistent with gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Treatment delays due to hematologic toxicity occurred in 37 dogs (63%). There were 16 nonfatal treatment‐related episodes of sepsis requiring hospitalization. 5 dogs died due to sepsis and/or chemotherapy‐related complications.
Conclusions:  C/B‐OPP chemotherapy has activity against relapsed canine lymphoma which is similar to that of traditional MOPP rescue therapy. Moderate to severe hematologic toxicity was observed. Further work is warranted to optimize drug doses and scheduling.  相似文献

The aim of the study was to report the outcome of treatment of 97 dogs with lymphoma that received a multi‐agent chemotherapy protocol containing epirubicin as the primary anthracycline. Seventy‐five dogs received a 25‐week protocol with no maintenance phase whilst 22 dogs received a maintenance phase. Complete response rate was 96% and time to first relapse (TTR) and overall survival (OS) time for all dogs were 216 and 342 days, respectively. Dogs with T‐cell lymphoma and those classified as WHO substage b had significantly poorer OS times and TTR. The protocol was well tolerated with toxicity similar to doxorubicin‐containing protocols. Epirubicin as part of a multi‐agent protocol is safe and effective in the treatment of canine multicentric lymphoma. There is a high initial response rate and an overall median survival time that is similar to other published doxorubicin‐containing protocols.  相似文献

Background: Multidrug resistance is the most common cause of treatment failure in dogs with multicentric lymphoma. 5-(3,3-Dimethyl-1-triazeno)-imidazole-4-carboxamide (DTIC) is an atypical alkylator used as standard treatment in human Hodgkin's lymphoma, and has been effective in combination treatment to treat resistant lymphoma in dogs. However, no data are available on the use of DTIC as a single agent in the treatment of relapsed canine lymphoma.
Hypothesis: Single-agent DTIC is effective and safe in treating dogs with lymphoma that relapsed or failed to respond to previous chemotherapy.
Animals: Forty client-owned dogs with relapsed lymphoma.
Methods: Dogs were eligible for the retrospective study if they had a histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of lymphoma and had relapsed. Dogs received DTIC (800–1,000 mg/m2 every 2–3 weeks as a 4–5-hour IV infusion) and were evaluated for response rate and duration. Hematologic and gastrointestinal toxicity was assessed.
Results: The overall response rate for dogs being treated with DTIC was 35% (14 dogs) with a median progression-free interval of 43 days. Thirteen dogs had a partial response and 1 dog had a complete response. Stable disease was achieved in 3 dogs. Mild gastrointestinal toxicity was reported in 3 dogs posttreatment. Thrombocytopenia was the principal toxicity observed 7–14 days after the treatment. Treatments were delayed because of thrombocytopenia.
Conclusions: DTIC, when used alone, is effective in the treatment of dogs with relapsed lymphoma.  相似文献

The DMAC protocol (dexamethasone, melphalan, actinomycin‐D, cytarabine) has been evaluated in American studies for the treatment of relapsed canine lymphoma, comparing similarly to other rescue protocols. The aim of this study was to evaluate efficacy and toxicity of DMAC, in a larger UK cohort of resistant canine lymphomas. Medical records of dogs with resistant non‐Hodgkin high‐grade lymphomas that received DMAC as a rescue protocol were reviewed from 2007 to 2017. Response, time from initiation to discontinuation (TTD) and toxicity (Veterinary Cooperative Oncology Group criteria) were assessed. One hundred dogs were included; 86 received CEOP (modified CHOP including epirubicin) as first‐line treatment. Thirty‐five dogs (35%) responded: 21 complete responders (CRs) and 14 partial responders (PRs). Responders had significantly longer TTD (P < 0.001) compared with non‐responders: 62 days (range 28‐952) for CR vs 32 days (range 20‐70) for PR. Six CR received more than six cycles of DMAC (range 7‐36 cycles) and experienced a longer TTD (median 508, range 126‐952 days). Thrombocytopenia occurred in 45% (24 grade 1‐2, 21 grade 3‐4) and neutropenia in 36% of cases (29 grade 1‐2, 7 grade 3‐4). Gastrointestinal toxicity occurred in 42% of dogs (40 grade 1‐2, 2 grade 3‐4). Owing to chemotherapy toxicity, treatment was discontinued in five, and hospitalization required in six cases. In this study, response to DMAC was lower and of generally shorter duration than previously reported. Toxicity was high, but infrequently led to hospitalization or discontinuation of treatment.  相似文献

Background: Dogs with multicentric lymphoma are treated with various cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP)-based chemotherapy protocols with variable success.
Objectives: To describe the progression-free survival (PFS) time and overall survival time (OST) of dogs with T-cell lymphoma or hypercalcemic lymphoma treated with l -asparaginase and mechlorethamine, vincristine, prednisone, procarbazine (MOPP).
Animals: Fifty dogs with T-cell lymphoma, hypercalcemic lymphoma, or both treated at 3 referral veterinary hospitals.
Methods: Retrospective study. Case were selected based on histologic or cytologic diagnosis of lymphoma; presence of the T-cell phenotype, presence of hypercalcemia or both; and absence of previous chemotherapy. The T-cell phenotype was determined by flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry, or polymerase chain reaction of antigen receptor rearrangement.
Results: The overall response rate was 98% (78% complete response, 20% partial response). The median PFS for the entire study population was 189 days with 25% PFS at 939 days. The median OST for the entire study population was 270 days with 25% surviving 939 days. Twenty percent of the dogs required hospitalization for treatment related complications.
Conclusions and clinical importance: l -Asp/MOPP chemotherapy might result in longer PFS and OST for dogs with multicentric T-cell lymphoma, dogs with hypercalcemic lymphoma or both, than achieved with CHOP.  相似文献

This retrospective study in 61 cats with malignant lymphomas examined the efficacy of a well-established chemotherapy protocol (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisolone [COP]) in the Netherlands, a country with a low prevalence of feline leukemia virus (FeLV). Twenty-two cats (36.1%) had mediastinal lymphoma, 11 (18.0%) had alimentary lymphoma, 7 (11.5%) had peripheral lymphoma, 8 (13.1%) had nasal lymphoma, and 13 (21.3%) had miscellaneous lymphoma (including renal lymphoma in 2 [3.3%]). Of the 54 cats that were tested, only 4 (7.4%) were FeLV positive. Complete remission (CR) was achieved in 46 of the 61 cats (75.4%). The estimated 1- and 2-year disease-free periods (DFPs) in the 46 cats with CR were 51.4 and 37.8%, respectively, whereas the median duration of remission was 251 days. The overall estimated 1-year survival rate in all cats was 48.7%, and the 2-year survival rate was 39.9%, with a median survival of 266 days. The median survival time and the 1-year survival rate for mediastinal lymphoma were 262 days and 49.4%. respectively. Siamese cats had a more favorable prognosis for survival and remission than other breeds. Response to therapy in this study was shown to be a significant prognostic indicator. CR is necessary for long-term survival. Cats that did not achieve CR had little chance of survival for longer than I year. Young Siamese cats in this study had a greater tendency to develop mediastinal malignant lymphoma at a young age, and all were FeLV negative. In comparison with results reported in other studies with different combination chemotherapy protocols, these are among the highest percentages of remission and the longest survival rates for cats with malignant lymphoma.  相似文献
