Emerging treatment options for the management of Hodgkin's lymphoma: clinical utility of Nivolumab

Abstract: Classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma (cHL) is a B-cell malignancy comprised of pathologic Reed Sternberg cells with a surrounding immune-tolerant inflammatory milieu. RS cells evade immune recognition in part through programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) overexpression, which is genetically programmed through copy number alterations, polysomy, and amplification of the 9p24.1 locus encoding PD-L1. By engaging with PD-1+ T-cells, PD-L1 delivers a potent immune suppressive signal promoting immunologic escape of the tumor cel… Show more

“…Although this case series offers an insight into an additional potential treatment option in recurrent lymphoma, there are significant limitations. Additional medical therapy options are evolving rapidly, and it is likely that additional chemotherapy or immunotherapy options would now be available for the patients within this study . In current times, with well‐tolerated monoclonal antibodies and other immune checkpoint inhibitors, it is likely these patients would not have undergone aggressive surgical management.…”

“…Nas células RS há o gene 9p24 no cromossomo 9p que codifica PD-L1 e PD-L2 em um número muito maior do que em outros tipos células de linfoma (4-7). A partir disso, a neoplasia do tipo RS é a que possui uma clínica mais agressiva, considerando que suas células apresentam capacidade de evitar o sistema antitumoral, liberando citocinas imunossupressoras e impedindo que o linfócito T consiga matar a célula tumoral (4,6).…”

“…O Nivolumab ativa linfócitos T por meio da inibição de receptor PD-1 nessas células, bloqueando a interação deste com as proteínas PD-L1 e PD-L2 (9). O PD-1 é um receptor expresso em macrófagos ativados, células dendríticas, células B, célula NK e células T, principalmente ativadas, e trata-se de uma proteína que possui domínios intracelulares e extracelulares, além da porção transmembrana (6,7). A principal função do PD-1 é conter a ação dos linfócitos T nos tecidos periféricos quando há uma resposta inflamatória, evitando danos ao hospedeiro.…”
