Introduction: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/ small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/ SLL) is the most common adult lymphoproliferative disorder in western countries and the B-cell receptor signaling pathway has been shown to be involved in the pathogenesis of CLL/ SLL. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is a kinase protein in downstream signaling for multiple pathways in B cells, promoting B-cell survival, proliferation and metabolism. Two prominent PI3K inhibitors, idelalisib (PI3Kδ-selective inhibitor) and duvelisib (PI3Kδ/γ-combinatorial inhibitor), are currently being studied in the treatment of relapsed and refractory CLL/ SLL. The purpose of our study is to explore and consolidate the efficacy of PI3K inhibitors in patients with relapsed and refractory CLL/SLL. Methods: We systematically conducted a comprehensive literature search using MEDLINE, EMBASE databases and meeting abstracts from inception through June 2019. Phase 3 RCTs utilizing PI3K inhibitors in patients with relapsed and refractory CLL/SLL were incorporated in the analysis. A generic inverse variance method was used to calculate the estimated pooled hazard ratio (HR) for progression-free survival (PFS) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Heterogeneity was assessed with Cochran's Q -statistic. Random effects model was applied. Results: Four phase 3 RCTs with a total of 1,216 patients with relapsed and refractory CLL/SLL were eligible for analysis. Studies compared ofatumumab vs idelalisib+ofatumumab, rituximab vs idelalisib+rituximab, bendamustine+ rituximab vs idelalisib+bendamustine+rituximab and ofatumumab vs duvelisib. The randomization ratio was 2:1 in the study by Jones et al. and 1:1 in other studies. The I2 statistic for heterogeneity was 82%, suggesting moderate heterogeneity among RCTs. The overall pooled HR for PFS was statistically significant at 0.30 (95% CI: 0.20- 0.47; P < 0.0001). The PFS benefit was observed across all ages and regardless of del 17p or TP53 status; age <65 (HR, 0.35; 95% CI: 0.27- 0.46; P < 0.0001), age ≥65 (HR, 0.32; 95% CI: 0.19- 0.54; P < 0.0001), either del 17p or TP53 cohort (HR, 0.33; 95% CI: 0.21- 0.52; P < 0.0001), and neither del 17p nor TP53 cohort (HR, 0.32; 95% CI: 0.19- 0.54; P < 0.0001). In the subset of patients with CLL treated with idelalisib, the pooled HR for PFS was statistically significant at 0.26 (95% CI: 0.18-0.37; P < 0.0001) and the PFS benefit was observed across all ages, and regardless of del17p or TP53 status and IGHV mutation status; age <65 (HR, 0.32; 95% CI: 0.24- 0.43; P < 0.0001), age ≥65 (HR, 0.26; 95% CI: 0.14- 0.47; P < 0.0001), either del17p or TP53 cohort (HR, 0.29; 95% CI: 0.15- 0.57; P = 0.0003), neither del17p nor TP53 cohort (HR, 0.26; 95% CI: 0.20- 0.35; P < 0.0001), IGHV mutated cohort (HR, 0.29; 95% CI: 0.17- 0.51; P < 0.0001), and IGHV unmutated cohort (HR, 0.25; 95% CI: 0.15- 0.40; P < 0.0001). Conclusions: Our study showed that PI3K inhibitors, idelalisib (PI3Kδ-selective inhibitor) and duvelisib (PI3Kδ/γ-combinatorial inhibitor), significantly improved PFS in patients with relapsed and refractory CLL/ SLL regardless of age and poor prognostic features such as del17p or TP53 and IGHV unmutated status, compared to control arm. The efficacy of these drugs must be balanced against the possible side effects. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

ABSTRACT We report the characterization of two signal transduction proteins related to Bam32, known as TAPP1 and TAPP2. Bam32, TAPP1, and TAPP2 share several characteristics, including small size (32 to 47 kDa), lack of enzymatic domains, high conservation between humans and mice, and the presence of pleckstrin homology (PH) domains near their C termini which contain the 3-phosphoinositide-binding motif. Unlike Bam32, the N-terminal regions of TAPP1 and TAPP2 contain a second PH domain. TAPP1 and TAPP2 transcripts are expressed in a variety of tissues including lymphoid tissues. Using live-cell imaging, we demonstrate that TAPP1 and TAPP2 are recruited to the plasma membrane of BJAB human B-lymphoma cells upon activation through the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR). The C-terminal PH domain is necessary and sufficient for BCR-induced membrane recruitment of both TAPP1 and TAPP2. Blockade of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activity completely abolished BCR-induced recruitment of TAPP1 and TAPP2, while expression of active PI3K is sufficient to drive constitutive membrane localization of TAPP1 and TAPP2. TAPP1 and TAPP2 preferentially accumulate within ruffled, F-actin-rich areas of plasma membrane, suggesting a potential role in PI3K-driven cytoskeletal reorganization. Like Bam32, BCR-driven TAPP1 and TAPP2 recruitment is a relatively slow and sustained response, in contrast to Btk recruitment and Ca2+ mobilization responses, which are rapid and transient. Consistent with recent studies indicating that Bam32, TAPP1, and TAPP2 can bind to PI(3,4)P2, we find that membrane recruitment correlates well with production of PI(3,4)P2 but not with that of PI(3,4,5)P3. Our results indicate that TAPP1 and TAPP2 are direct targets of PI3K signaling that are recruited into plasma membranes with distinctive delayed kinetics and accumulate within F-actin-rich membrane ruffles. We postulate that the TAPPs function to orchestrate cellular responses during the sustained phase of signaling.
