Adjustment of Chemotherapy Duration in Follicular Lymphoma According to Minimal Residual Disease Status (FLMRD)
Adjustment of Chemotherapy Duration in Follicular Lymphoma Patients According to Peripheral Blood or Bone Marrow Minimal Residual Disease Status
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a chronic indolent malignancy, where treatment with 6 cycles of bendamustine obinutuzumab (BO) is highly effective but at a cost of increased adverse events.
Tumor specific DNA can be traced in blood and bone marrow of follicular lymphoma patients even after therapy, and when detected after lymphoma treatment it is referred to as minimal residual disease (MRD).
MRD elimination after effective lymphoma treatment is a marker for deep response and correlates with prolonged remission.
In this study we aim to omit chemotherapy after 4 cycles of treatment in patients achieving MRD elimination after 3 months of therapy, as well as complete metabolic response on positron emission computed tomography (PET-CT), hoping to preserve treatment effectiveness while reducing adverse events.

Detaillierte Beschreibung
Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the second most common type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, with an estimated incidence of 3.18 cases per 100000 people a year in the United States The disease is characterized by an indolent behavior, where often treatment is unnecessary at diagnosis, and a "watch & wait" approach is the standard of care for asymptomatic patients. FL is also a highly responsive disease for immuno-chemotherapeutic combinations, although most patients will eventually relapse. Since the disease is incurable & indolent in nature, the therapeutic strategy should aim for disease control, while using treatments with high safety profile in order to minimize the chance for life threatening adverse events.
Therapy with rituximab cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine & prednisone (R-CHOP) combination & subsequent rituximab maintenance therapy for 24 months shows excellent results with a median progression free survival (PFS) of above a decade.
The more recent GALLIUM trial has shown that combining the monoclonal antibody obinutuzumab with chemotherapy is even more efficacious compared to rituximab combinations. When different combinations were examined in this trial the best results were achieved with the bendamustine-obinutuzumab (BO) combination with 3 year PFS of 84%. Unfortunately the trial also revealed a downside for this effective combination with higher rate of fatal adverse events among patients receiving 6 cycles of bendamustine combinations.
In patients with acute leukemia evaluation for minimal residual disease (MRD) is a routine procedure, and the nature & length of treatment are guided by MRD status at different time points during therapy.
Among FL patients treated with obinutuzumab-chemotherapy combinations, it has been shown that after 3 cycles of treatment about 90% of patients were MRD negative. In addition MRD negativity at the end of induction in either peripheral blood or bone marrow was found to be associated with improved outcomes in patients with 1st line treatment for FL as well as in the relapsed setting.
These findings raise the possibility for an MRD based treatment approach, where the duration of chemotherapy could be guided by MRD status at mid-induction. Eliminating chemotherapy while continuing immunotherapy after achievement of MRD negativity & complete metabolic remission on PET-CT at mid-induction could reduce treatment toxicity, while potentially preserving efficacy.

Experimental: Reduced number of bendamustine cycles in patients with mid-induction MRD negativity
Patients with follicular lymphoma treated with obinutuzumab bendamustine & achieving MRD negativity as well as complete metabolic response on PET-CT at mid-induction would continue obinutuzumab treatment while omitting bendamustin after 4 cycles.
