Drug Chapters

The drug chapter segment of the Follicular Lymphoma report encloses the detailed analysis of Follicular Lymphoma marketed drugs and late stage (Phase-III, Phase-II/III, Phase-II, and Phase-I/II) pipeline drugs. It also helps understand the Follicular Lymphoma clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, approval and patent details, advantages and disadvantages of each included drug, and the latest news and press releases.

In stage 1 lymphomas, radiation therapy is preferred in grades 1, 2, and 3a lymphomas. In contrast, patients with grade 3b FL are treated with aggressive regimens (such as R-CHOP) used for other aggressive lymphomas (e.g., diffuse large B cell lymphoma).

Treatment of stage II-IV FL is mainly focused on the improvement of life, alleviation of symptoms, and reversal of cytopenias. Asymptomatic patients are mostly observed closely without any intervention. Anti-CD20 antibodies (obinutuzumab, rituximab) are combined with chemotherapy regimens for the treatment of symptomatic advanced follicular lymphomas.

Treatment of FL relapse or progression depends in part upon the duration of remission with previous treatments. For patients with relapse or progression on first-line treatment who have a longer duration of remission, options can include chemoimmunotherapy followed by rituximab maintenance.

The National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines mention multiple options for patients with follicular lymphoma in second-line and subsequent therapy, including lenalidomide plus rituximab, or lenalidomide plus obinutuzumab, or the EZH2 inhibitor, tazemetostat. There are also some chemotherapy options mentioned in the guidelines, like R-CVP [rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone], bendamustine plus rituximab or obinotuzumab, or R-CHOP [rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone].

Emerging Drugs

Monjuvi/Tafasitamab (Incyte Corporation/MorphoSys) is a humanized Fc-modified cytolytic CD19 targeting monoclonal antibodies. In 2010, MorphoSys licensed exclusive worldwide rights to develop and commercialize tafasitamab from Xencor. Tafasitamab incorporates an XmAb engineered Fc domain, which mediates B-cell lysis through apoptosis and immune effector mechanism including antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP). Tafasitamab is currently clinically investigated as a therapeutic option in B-cell malignancies in several ongoing combination trials (Phase III clinical trial is ongoing to treat FL). In January 2021, the US FDA granted orphan drug designation to tafasitamab for the treatment of FL.

Breyanzi/JCAR017 (Bristol Myers) is a CAR-T-cell therapy being developed by Juno Therapeutics, in collaboration with Celgene, to treat certain patients with aggressive B-cell NHL possibly. Juno's CAR-T technology acts to reprogram T-cells to target cells that express a specific protein, called CD19, commonly found in cancerous B-cell NHL. It is currently being studied in several Phase (III, II, and I) clinical trials to treat FL.

Market Outlook

The Follicular Lymphoma market outlook of the report builds a detailed comprehension of the historical, current, and forecasted Follicular Lymphoma market trends by analyzing the impact of current therapies on the market, unmet needs, drivers and barriers, and demand for better technology.

This segment gives a thorough detail of Follicular Lymphoma market trend of each marketed drug and late-stage pipeline therapy by evaluating their impact based on the annual cost of therapy, inclusion and exclusion criteria's, mechanism of action, compliance rate, growing need for the market, increasing patient pool, covered patient segment, expected launch year, competition with other therapies, brand value, their impact on the market and view of the key opinion leaders. The calculated market data are presented with relevant tables and graphs to view the market at first sight clearly.

Tazemetostat is the first approved oral EZH2 inhibitor for relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma after two or more lines of systemic therapy or for EZH2 wild type or unknown with relapsed/refractory disease in patients who do not have satisfactory alternative options. EZH2 is a histone methyltransferase that is abundant in the germinal center where FL originates. In about 20% of FL cases, EZH2 is mutated. Tazemetostat is known to inhibit this mutated form of EZH2. It is unique that tazemetostat can also inhibit the wild-type form, which is abundantly prevalent in the germinal center, as well as mutated EZH2. However, the response rates are higher in those with mutated EZH2.

In May 2019, a combination of lenalidomide (Revlimid) and rituximab (Rituxan; R2) was a treatment option for adult patients with grade 1-3A previously treated FL. It is a new type of targeted cancer therapy for people with previously treated FL. Nevertheless, with the approaching patent expiry, the generic version of lenalidomide will soon hit the market.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has also emerged as an exciting alternative treatment for this patient population. Recently, Gilead subsidiary Kite's Yescarta has been granted accelerated approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for indolent FL, becoming the first CAR-T cell therapy approved in this indication.

Therapies targeting PI3K have also been important in the R/R setting based on the vital role of the p110? isoform of PI3K in B-cell and T-cell development, B-cell receptor signaling, and the decreased B-cell number and function observed in mouse embryonic knockout of p110?. The guidelines mention PI3 kinase inhibitors such as idelalisib, copanlisib, and duvelisib, for patients with FL who have previously received two lines of systemic therapy. In July 2014, the FDA granted accelerated approval to idelalisib (Zydelig tablets; Gilead Sciences, Inc.), a PI3 kinase delta inhibitor, to treat patients with relapsed follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, it carries a boxed warning alerting patients and health care professionals about the potential for severe and fatal toxicities, including liver toxicity, diarrhea and colitis, pneumonitis, and intestinal perforation.
