The era of modern chemotherapy began in the early 1940s when Goodman and Gilman first administered nitrogen mustard to lymphoma patients. Although nitrogen mustard was originally developed as a chemical weapon, its toxic effects on the lymphatic system led to clinical trials of its use in cancer treatment. This marked the beginning of chemotherapy as an active field of cancer research and therapy development.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

1.
2. Era of modern chemotherapy began in early 1940s
Goodman and Gilman first administered nitrogen
mustard to patients with lymphoma
◦ nitrogen mustard was developed as a war gas during (world
war I) rather than as a medicine
◦ toxic effects on the lymphatic system led to clinical trials
3. G1 phase: cell prepares for DNA
synthesis
S phase: cell generates complete
copy of genetic material
G2 phase: cell prepares for
mitosis
M phase: replicated DNA is
condensed and segregated
into chromosomes
G0 phase: resting state
4. Cell cycle phase –
specific
◦ agents with major
activity in a particular
phase of cell cycle
◦ schedule dependent
Cell cycle phase –
nonspecific
◦ agents with significant
activity in multiple
phases
◦ dose dependent
6. Most chemotherapy drugs are active in cells that are rapidly
multiplying so besides their cytotoxic effects on cancerous
cells they are also toxic to normal cells that are actively
multiplying.
Thus common toxicity of chemo agents are –
◦ Neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia
(myelosuppression or bone marrow suppression)
◦ Mucositis, diarrhea (GI toxicity)
◦ Nausea and vomiting
◦ Alopecia
◦ Sterility/Infertility (especially sterility in males)
7. Side effects are dependent upon:
◦ Type of drug
◦ Dose that was given
◦ Frequency of administration
◦ Number of drugs in any particular regime
◦ Route of administration – drug concentration
◦ Patient’s co-morbidity
◦ Age ?
8. Activities of Daily Living (ADL)
*Instrumental ADL refer to
preparing meals,
shopping for groceries or
clothes, using the
telephone, managing money,
etc.
**Self care ADL refer to bathing,
dressing and
undressing, feeding self, using
the toilet, taking
medications, and not bedridden.
9. Mature circulating
haematopoeitic cells die
off according to their
respective life spans
Deficient replacements
from the marrow
Clinical manifestations
including leucopenia,
thrombocytopenia,
anemia
Complications arise in
severe cases
10. Neutropenia is defined
as an absolute
neutrophil count (ANC)
of <500 cells/mm3 or an
ANC that is expected to
decrease to <500
cells/mm3 during the
next 48 hours.
In neutropenic patients,
fever (single oral
temperature ≥38.3°C or
sustained temp. ≥38°C
for 1 hour) should be
considered evidence of
infection and treated
accordingly.
MASCC Score
Treatment :-
G-CSF or GM-CSF support along with
Antibiotics and antifungal.
11. Defined as a platelet count <1003/μl (CTCAE)
Complication- hemorrhage
The risk of spontaneous bleeding including
intracranial hemorrhage is increased when the
platelet count drops to <103/μl.
If the platelet count is <1003/μl at the
beginning of a new cycle, the chemotherapy is
delayed and the successive dose of treatment is
decreased.
Drugs that affect the early hematopoietic
progenitors, such as the nitrosureas, mitomycin
C, busulfan, and melphalan delayed and
cumulative thrombocytopenia
New biologic agents- lenalidomide
12. Causes-
◦ Antiangiogenic therapy (bevacizumab, sunitinib, sorafenib)
◦ Immunomodulatory agents (thalidomide- or lenalidomide-based
combination regimens)
◦ Hormonal therapy agents (e.g., tamoxifen)
◦ Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents
◦ Central venous access devices
◦ Transfusions
Patients with cancer have a 3-fold higher risk of
recurrent VTE and 2-fold higher risk of anticoagulant-
related bleeding compared with patients without cancer.
CLOT trial- LMWH is the preferred treatment for initial
and long-term treatment compared with UFH and
vitamin K antagonists (VKA).
13. Acute CINV- within 24hrs after chemotherapy
Delayed CINV- more than 24hrs after chemo
eg.- cisplatin, carboplatin , anthracyclines
cyclophosphamide
Anticipatory Nausea and vomiting- occur as
the result of a conditioned response to prior
episodes of CINV
14.
15.
16. Commonly with Adriamycin, epirubicin

Educate and reassure that hair will growback (about 3 – 5
month post chemo )
17. Commonly seen with
