Purpose The randomized First-Line Indolent Trial (FIT) was conducted in patients with advanced follicular lymphoma (FL), to evaluate the safety and efficacy of yttrium-90 (90Y) ibritumomab tiuxetan given as consolidation of complete or partial remission. This study of minimal residual disease was undertaken in parallel, to determine the rate of conversion from bcl-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) –detectable to –undetectable status and the corresponding effect on progression-free survival (PFS). Patients and Methods Blood samples from 414 patients (90Y-ibritumomab, n = 208; control, n = 206) were evaluated using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR); 186 were found to have the bcl-2 rearrangement and were thus eligible for inclusion in the RQ-PCR analysis. Results Overall, 90% of treated patients converted from bcl-2 PCR–detectable to –undetectable disease status, compared with 36% in the control group. Treatment significantly prolonged median PFS in patients converting to bcl-2 PCR-undetectable status (40.8 v 24.0 months in the control group; P < .01, hazard ratio [HR], 0.399). In patients who had bcl-2 PCR-detectable disease at random assignment, treatment significantly prolonged median PFS (38.4 v 8.2 months in the control group; P < .01, HR, 0.293). Conclusion Eradication of PCR-detectable disease occurred more frequently after treatment with 90Y-ibritumomab tiuxetan and was associated with prolongation of PFS.

Purpose We report on a multicenter phase II trial of 90yttrium-ibritumomab-tiuxetan (90YIT) as first-line stand-alone therapy for patients with follicular lymphoma (FL). Patients and Methods Fifty-nine patients with CD20+ FL grade 1 to 3a in stages II, III, or IV, age 50 years old or older requiring therapy were enrolled. They received 90YIT according to standard procedure. If complete response (CR) or unconfirmed complete response (CRu) without evidence for minimal residual disease (MRD) 6 months after application of 90YIT was achieved, patients were observed without further intervention. The same applied to patients with partial response (PR) or with stable disease (SD). Patients with CR but with persisting MRD were to receive a consolidation treatment with rituximab. Primary end point was the clinical and molecular response rate. Secondary end points were time to progression, safety, and tolerability. Results Six months after treatment with 90YIT, 56% of the patients showed a CR or CRu and 31% achieved a PR. After a median follow-up of 30.6 months, the progression-free survival (PFS) was 26 months. There was a trend for shorter PFS in patients with increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Of the 26 patients who had CR 12 months after 90YIT, only three had relapsed. Median time to next treatment has not been reached. The most common toxicities were transient thrombocytopenia and leukocytopenia. Nonhematologic toxicities never exceeded grade 2 according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v2.0). Conclusion 90YIT is well tolerated and achieves high response rates. Patients with increased LDH tend to relapse earlier, and individuals in remission 1 year after 90YIT appear to have long- lasting responses.

Abstract Follicular lymphoma (FL) patients, (pts) with high-risk features using the FL International Prognostic Index (FLIPI) have an expected 5-year survival of only about 50% with conventional therapy. With the incorporation of anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy, results are improving (e.g., Buske, Blood2006; 108: 1504). Starting in 2003, we have treated high-risk (FLIPI ≥3) FL pts with R-FND (rituximab, fludarabine, mitoxantrone, dexamethasone) for 4 cycles, followed by radioimmunotherapy (RIT) with ibritumomab tiuxetan, and subsequent rituximab maintenance. Results for the first 35 pts are: complete (CR) and partial (PR) remission 83% and 14%; 3-year overall (OS) and failure-free survival (FFS) 89% and 74% (median follow-up 24 mo.). RIT converted 5 PR pts to CR. Toxicity was mainly hematologic. Five pts did not receive RIT, one because of neutropenia after R-FND. Following RIT, platelet and neutrophil nadirs were 28 and 0.3, occurring at 4–7 weeks. 16 pts required transfusions, and 27 received growth factors. 13 pts had infections, only 2 of which were grade 3. Recovery occurred by 3 weeks in most, with prolonged cytopenias in 6. There has been 1 case of myelodysplasia. In conclusion, the additional complexity of this RIT intensification strategy is warranted in this high-risk FL population, resulting in OS and FFS outcomes that are better than non-mAb therapies, and at least as good as published chemotherapy-rituximab combination therapy.
