Phase I study of selinexor in combination with dexamethasone, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide chemotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell or naturalkiller/T-cell lymphoma.

We performed a phase I study to determine the safety and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of selinexor when combined with high-dose dexamethasone, ifosfamide, carboplatin and etoposide (DICE) in relapsed/refractory (R/R) T-cell lymphoma (TCL) and natural-killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTL). Patients with R/R TCL and NKTL were treated with standard dose ICE, dexamethasone 20mg on days 3 to 7, and escalating doses of oral selinexor on days 3, 5 and 7 in a 3+3 design. Dose level (DL) 1, 2 and 3 were 40, 60 and 80mg respectively. Eleven patients with a median age of 60 were enrolled; 6 at DL1 and 5 at DL2. Patients had received a median of 2 (range 1-4) prior lines of treatment and 7 had primary refractory disease at study entry. Patients received a median of 3 cycles (range 1-6) of selinexor-DICE. The most common grade (G) 1/2 toxicities included nausea (64%), fatigue (55%), and anorexia (45%) and the most common G 3/4 toxicities included thrombocytopenia (82%), anemia (82%), neutropenia (73%), ...
