The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer consensus statement on immunotherapy for the treatment of hematologic malignancies: multiple myeloma, lymphoma, and acute leukemia

Abstract: Increasing knowledge concerning the biology of hematologic malignancies as well as the role of the immune system in the control of these diseases has led to the development and approval of immunotherapies that are resulting in impressive clinical responses. Therefore, the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) convened a hematologic malignancy Cancer Immunotherapy Guidelines panel consisting of physicians, nurses, patient advocates, and patients to develop consensus recommendations for the clinical applica… Show more

“…Rituximab, usually given in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy, has dramatically improved outcomes in indolent 29 and aggressive Bcell lymphomas 30 and is now part of standard front-line therapy. Further agents including depleting antibodies, radio-immune conjugates, bi-specific T-cell engagers and other modalities have also proven effective and are in widespread use 31…”

“…Recent US Food and Drug Administration approval for refractory DLBCL based on the results of the ZUMA-1 study shows that CAR T-cell therapy will be used in refractory DLBCL in the future. 94 , 95 Clinical trials with CAR therapy are ongoing in indolent lymphomas (including marginal zone lymphoma) at this time.…”

“…The antitumor activity of rituximab is believed to be mediated in part by antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) (1). However, a substantial proportion of patients develop resistance to treatment, underscoring the need for more effective strategies (1)(2)(3). A variety of immunotherapeutic approaches including 4-1BB/CD137, programmed death 1 (PD-1), and PD-ligand 1 (PD-L1) targeted antibodies, as well as bispecific antibodies and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are currently under investigation in patients with NHL and other hematological malignancies (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14).…”
