Abstract
Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported.The primary analysis of the Ro-CHOP phase III randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01796002) established that romidepsin (Ro) plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone (CHOP) did not yield an increased efficacy compared with CHOP alone as first-line treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. We report the planned final analysis 5 years after the last patient enrolled. With a median follow-up of 6 years, median progression-free survival (PFS) was 12.0 months compared with 10.2 months (hazard ratio [HR], 0.79 [95% CI, 0.62 to 1.005]; P = .054), while median overall survival was 62.2 months (35.7-86.6 months) and 43.8 months (30.1-70.2 months; HR, 0.88 [95% CI, 0.68 to 1.14]; P = .324) in the Ro-CHOP and CHOP arms, respectively. In an exploratory analysis, the median PFS in the centrally reviewed follicular helper T-cell lymphoma subgroup was significantly longer in the Ro-CHOP arm (19.5 v 10.6 months, HR, 0.703 [95% CI, 0.502 to 0.985]; P = .039). Second-line treatments were given to 251 patients with a median PFS2 and OS2 after relapse or progression of 3.3 months and 11.5 months, respectively. Within the limits of highly heterogeneous second-line treatments, no specific regimen seemed to provide superior disease control. However, a potential benefit was observed with brentuximab vedotin in association with chemotherapy even after excluding anaplastic large-cell lymphoma subtype or after adjusting for histology and international prognostic index in a multivariate model (HR for PFS, 0.431 [95% CI, 0.238 to 0.779]; P = .005).

Abstract
T-cell lymphomas are aggressive neoplasms characterized by poor responses to current chemotherapeutic agents. Expression of the l-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT 1, SLC7A5) allows for the expansion of healthy T-cell counterparts, and upregulation of LAT1 has been reported in precursor T-cell acute leukemia. Therefore, the expression of LAT1 was evaluated in a cohort of cutaneous and peripheral T-cell lymphomas. The findings demonstrated that LAT1 is upregulated in aggressive variants and absent in low-grade or indolent disease such as mycosis fungoides. In addition, upregulated LAT1 expression was seen in a large proportion of aggressive peripheral T-cell lymphomas, including peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specific (PTCL-NOS) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL). The anti-tumor effects of two novel non-cleavable and bifunctional compounds, QBS10072S and QBS10096S, that combine a potent cytotoxic chemotherapeutic domain (tertiary N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amine) with the structural features of a selective LAT1 substrate (aromatic β-amino acid) were tested in vitro and in vivo in T-cell lymphoma cell lines. The findings demonstrated decreased survival of T-cell lymphoma lines with both compounds. Overall, the results demonstrate that LAT1 is a valuable biomarker for aggressive T-cell lymphoma counterparts and QBS10072S and QBS10096S are successful therapeutic options for these aggressive diseases.

Abstract
Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a rare and aggressive type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that affects mature T cells. This type of cancer is characterized by the abnormal growth of T cells, which can accumulate in the lymph nodes, spleen, bone marrow, and other organs, leading to a variety of symptoms. PTCLs are often difficult to diagnose and treat, and they have a poorer prognosis than other types of lymphoma. However, recent advancements in treatment options, such as targeted therapies have shown promise in improving outcomes for patients with PTCL. Here, we discuss the use of autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) as a treatment strategy for patients with PTCL, as well as the recent treatment approaches based on advanced cellular therapy. The current evidence for the use of HCT in PTCL is mainly derived from registry data, retrospective studies, and expert opinion, as randomized trials are limited due to the low incidence and histological heterogeneity of PTCL subtypes.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify the benefits of autologous-stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) and allogeneic-SCT (allo-SCT) in patients with aggressive T-cell lymphomas to aid in the selection of transplantation type in clinical practice. This study retrospectively analyzed data from 598 patients who underwent transplantation for T-cell lymphomas from 2010 to 2020. In total, 317 patients underwent up-front SCT as consolidation therapy. The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 68.7% and 76.1%, respectively. Patients who underwent auto-SCT had significantly better OS (p = 0.026) than those who underwent allo-SCT; however, no statistical difference in PFS was found. Transplantation was used as a salvage therapy in 188 patients who had relapsed/refractory disease. Overall, 96 (51.1%) patients underwent auto-SCT and 92 (48.9%) patients underwent allo-SCT. Auto-SCT improved long-term survival in patients with complete remission (CR). Allo-SCT demonstrated better 3-year PFS in patients with partial remission and relapsed/refractory disease status. However, >50% of patients died within 1 year of allo-SCT. As a consolidative therapy, up-front auto-SCT demonstrated a survival benefit. Auto-SCT was also effective in patients who achieved CR after salvage therapy. If the disease persists or cannot be controlled, allo-SCT may be considered with reduced intensity conditioning.

Abstract
Purpose Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is a rare and heterogenous hematologic malignancy with poor prognosis especially in elderly and frail patients who are not eligible for intensive treatment. The resulting palliative setting necessitates tolerable but effective schedules for outpatient treatment. TEPIP is a locally developed, all-oral low-dose regimen comprising trofosfamide, etoposide, procarbazine, idarubicin, and prednisolone. Methods In this observational retrospective, single-center study, the safety and efficacy of TEPIP was evaluated in 12 patients (pts.) with PTCL treated at the University Medical Center Regensburg between 2010 and 2022. The endpoints were overall response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS), and adverse events were individually reported according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) criteria. Results The enrolled cohort was characterized by advanced age (median 70 years), extensive disease (100% Ann Arbor ≥stage 3), and poor prognosis (75% high/high-intermediate international prognostic index). The most common subtype was angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (8/12), and 11/12 patients had relapsed or refractory disease at TEPIP onset with a median of 1.5 prior treatment regimens. After a median of 2.5 TEPIP cycles (total of 83 cycles), the ORR was 42% (complete remission 25%), and the OS reached a median of 185 days. Any grade of adverse event (AE) occurred in 8/12 patients, with four patients showing AE ≥CTCAE grade 3 (33%), and the AEs were mainly non-hematological. Conclusion TEPIP demonstrated competitive efficacy with a tolerable safety profile in a highly palliative cohort of patients with difficult-to-treat PTCL. The all-oral application, which makes outpatient treatment possible, is particularly noteworthy.

Abstract
PURPOSE This is a retrospective, single-center PSM study evaluating the efficacy and safety of chidamide combined with the CHOEP (C-CHOEP) regimen versus the single CHOEP regimen in patients with untreated peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCL). PATIENTS Patients newly diagnosed with PTCL between January 2015 and June 2021 were recruited, and were 1:1 divided into C-CHOEP and CHOEP groups according to their first-line chemotherapy regimens. The PSM method was used to match the baseline variables to balance the confounding factors. RESULTS A cohort of 33 patients each in the C-CHOEP and CHOEP groups was generated after propensity score-matching (PSM). The complete remission (CR) rates of the C-CHOEP regimen were higher than that of the CHOEP regimen (56.3 vs. 25.8%, p = 0.014), whereas the duration of response of the C-CHOEP group was shorter (median DOR 30 vs. 57 months), resulting in roughly similar progression-free survival (PFS) and (overall survival) OS between the two groups. The responding patients who received chidamide maintenance therapy showed a trend of superior PFS and OS compared with patients who did not receive maintenance therapy. CONCLUSIONS The C-CHOEP regimen was well tolerated but failed to show advantages over the CHOEP regimen in patients with untreated PTCL; however, the chidamide maintenance may contribute to a more durable response and stable long-term survival.

Abstract
The use of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis has revolutionized allogeneic blood or marrow transplantation (alloBMT), but there is limited published experience in peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL). We sought to assess outcomes in patients with PTCL who underwent alloBMT with PTCy. We reviewed the charts of all adult patients age ≥18 years who underwent alloBMT with nonmyeloablative conditioning and PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis at the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center between January 2004 and December 2020. Sixty-five patients were identified. The median age was 59 years (range, 24 to 75 years). Lymphoma histology included PTCL not otherwise specified (n = 24), anaplastic lymphoma kinase-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (n = 14), angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (n = 7), enteropathy-associated T cell lymphoma (n = 6), hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma (n = 4), and others (n = 10). Eleven patients were in first complete remission (17%); the remaining patients were in first partial remission or underwent salvage therapy to at least PR prior to transplantation. Forty-eight patients underwent alloBMT from a haploidentical related donor (74%), 10 from a fully matched donor (15%), and 7 from a mismatched unrelated donor (11%). All patients received fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and total body irradiation (TBI). The graft source was bone marrow (BM) in 46 patients (71%) and peripheral blood (PB) in 19 patients (29%); all patients in the BM cohort received 200 cGy TBI, and most patients in the PB cohort (15 of 19) received 400 cGy TBI. GVHD prophylaxis comprised PTCy, mycophenolate mofetil, and a calcineurin inhibitor or sirolimus. With a median follow-up of 2.8 years (range, 290 days to 14.2 years), the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) for the entire cohort was 49% (95% confidence interval [CI], 38% to 64%), and the 2-year overall survival (OS) was 55% (95% CI, 44% to 69%). Outcomes were significantly improved in those receiving PB compared to those receiving BM, including a 2-year PFS of 79% (95% CI 63% to 100%) versus 39% (95% CI, 27% to 56%), 2-year OS of 84% (95% CI, 69% to 100%) versus 46% (95% CI, 33% to 63%), and 1-year cumulative incidence of relapse of 5% (95% CI, 0 to 16%) versus 33% (95% CI, 19% to 46%), with no difference in GVHD and nonrelapse mortality. AlloBMT with PTCy is safe and well-tolerated in patients with PTCL. Our data suggest that increasing the TBI dose to 400 cGy and using PB allografts may offer improved disease control and better survival outcomes, though additional studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) and natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL) are rare subtypes of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that are typically associated with poor treatment outcomes. Contemporary first-line treatment strategies generally involve the use of combination chemoimmunotherapy, radiation and/or stem cell transplant. Salvage options incorporate a number of novel agents including epigenetic therapies (e.g. HDAC inhibitors, DNMT inhibitors) as well as immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, validated biomarkers to select patients for individualized precision therapy are presently lacking, resulting in high treatment failure rates, unnecessary exposure to drug toxicities, and missed treatment opportunities. Recent advances in research on the tumor and microenvironmental factors of PTCL and NKTCL, including alterations in specific molecular features and immune signatures, have improved our understanding of these diseases, though several issues continue to impede progress in clinical translation. In this Review, we summarize the progress and development of the current predictive biomarker landscape, highlight potential knowledge gaps, and discuss the implications on novel therapeutics development in PTCL and NKTCL.

Abstract
Historic outcomes for patients with relapsed or refractory nodal-based T-cell lymphomas are poor, with survival generally measured in months in multiple reports from the late 20th and early 21st century. Until recently, salvage strategies have mostly been borrowed from other aggressive lymphomas. However, dedicated investigations into the pathogenesis of T-cell lymphomas have resulted in an outpouring of therapies that target these diseases in biologically rational strategies. In particular, an evolving appreciation of the multiple complex oncogenic pathways and epigenetic changes that underlie these diseases has led to numerous agents targeting these aberrancies. Moreover, large reports of salvage allogeneic stem cell transplants in T-cell lymphoma have now been published, showing that adaptive immunotherapy is a potentially curative strategy for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. This review highlights therapeutic advances for relapsed or refractory T-cell lymphomas, including cellular therapy and allogeneic stem cell transplant, and provides a framework for management.

Abstract
Mature T-cell lymphomas represent neoplastic expansions of T-cell lymphocytes with a post-thymic derivation. Most of these tumors feature aggressive clinical behavior and challenging histopathological diagnosis and classification. Novel findings in the genomic landscape of T-cell lymphomas are helping to improve the understanding of the biology and the molecular mechanisms that underly its clinical behavior. The most recent WHO-HAEM5 classification of hematolymphoid tumors introduced novel molecular and histopathological findings that will aid in the diagnostic classification of this group of neoplasms. The current review article summarizes the most relevant diagnostic features of peripheral T-cell lymphomas with an emphasis on the updates that are incorporated at the WHO-HAEM5.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Here, we review the management of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, particularly focusing on the role of autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplant. RECENT FINDINGS Peripheral T-cell lymphomas are a rare subset of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas that are treated with curative intent. While therapy has been based on other aggressive lymphoid malignancies, outcomes are generally poorer than B-cell lymphomas with 5-year overall and progression-free survival of 30-40% and 20-30%, respectively. In effort to improve outcomes, transplant has been used in both the frontline and salvage settings. Although not studied in randomized studies, consolidation with autologous stem cell transplant in first remission has been associated with an approximate 5-year overall survival of 50-60% and 5-year progression-free survival of 40-45%. Unfortunately, most patients relapse, and, in this setting, allogeneic transplant remains the only curative option for those who are transplant-eligible. Multiple series have now shown that 3-year overall survival with allogeneic transplant is approximately 60%. However, outcomes with transplant are associated with disease control at the time of transplant. In contrast to B-cell malignancies, treatment decisions for peripheral T-cell lymphomas are supported mostly by phase II studies, retrospective series, and expert opinion. For patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma able to achieve sufficient disease control, autologous stem cell transplantation in first remission and allogeneic stem cell transplantation in relapsed disease offer modest benefit over chemotherapy alone.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas (PTCL) are a rare subgroup of lymphomas with a poor outcome.Traditional prognostic measures rely heavily on disease stage, and with the advent of targeted treatment, further stratificationcriteria are needed to guide treatment. To date, the impact of blood involvement at diagnosis on outcomes has not been assessed. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed blood involvement by flow cytometry at diagnosis in 102 consecutivelytreated patients who had flow cytometry data available at diagnosis. Of these, 78 patients with nodal subtypes were identified andstudied in this analysis. RESULTS Of 78 patients with nodal subtypes of PTCL who had flow data available at the time ofdiagnosis, circulating populations of malignant T cells matching those in the biopsied lymph nodes were found in 21 patients bymultiparameter flow cytometry. A positive flow cytometry was highly correlated with bone marrow involvement. The patientswith a negative flow cytometry had a trend toward a longer median PFS compared to those with a positive flow but there was noimpact on overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Circulating malignant tumor cells can be found in the peripheral blood in a subset ofpatients with aggressive nodal T-cell lymphomas, including peripheral t-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified andangioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphomas, and blood involvement is correlated with bone marrow involvement.

Abstract
Optimal treatment strategies for (relapsed and refractory [R/R]) peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) have not been well defined, and with the approval of several novel single agents (SA), the comparative efficacy of combination chemotherapy (CC) to single-agent strategies remains unclear. We conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate overall response rates (ORR) and toxicities of SA to CC. MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, and Cochrane were systematically searched for phase I, phase II, and phase III trials investigating a defined SA or an anthracycline-, ifosfamide-, gemcitabine-, and platinum-based regimens. One hundred and fifty-one articles were included, encompassing single and combinations of 60 phase I trials involving 1075 patients, 95 phase II trials involving 3246, and 23 phase III trials involving 1888 patients. There was a high degree of heterogeneity in the trials. Using a random-effects model, the estimated ORR for SA in phase I trials were 40% (95% confidence interval [CI], 34.7%, 46.9%) relative to 41% for CC (95% CI, 27.4%, 56.1%; P = .97) and in phase II trials 34.4% (95% CI, 30.4%, 38.7%) for SA vs 55.3% (95% CI, 31%, 77.2%; P = .1) for CC. There were significant subgroup differences in ORR between histological subtypes of PTCL and drug classes. Our results highlight SA as an attractive outpatient option for R/R PTCL, and their incorporation in the development of upfront treatment paradigms merits urgent consideration. Our results underscore enrollment in clinical trials of SA as a critical strategy for R/R PTCL.

Abstract
Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disorders arising from mature T cells, accounting for about 10% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. PTCL-not otherwise specified is the most common subtype, followed by angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, anaplastic lymphoma kinase-negative, and enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma. This discussion section focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of PTCLs as outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for T-Cell Lymphomas.

Abstract
There are no studies comparing the prognosis for mature T-cell lymphoma (TCL) in people with HIV (PWH) to people without HIV (PWoH) and to AIDS-defining B-cell lymphomas (A-BCLs) in the modern antiretroviral therapy era. North American AIDS Cohort Collaboration on Research and Design and Comprehensive Oncology Measures for Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma Treatment are cohorts that enroll patients diagnosed with HIV and TCL, respectively. In our study, 52, 64, 101, 500, and 246 PWH with histologic confirmation of TCL, primary central nervous system lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), respectively, and 450 TCLs without HIV were eligible for analysis. At the time of TCL diagnosis, anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) was the most common TCL subtype within PWH. Although PWH with TCL diagnosed between 1996 and 2009 experienced a low 5-year survival probability at 0.23 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.13, 0.41), we observed a marked improvement in their survival when diagnosed between 2010 and 2016 (0.69; 95% CI: 0.48, 1; P = .04) in contrast to TCLs among PWoH (0.45; 95% CI: 0.41, 0.51; P = .53). Similarly, PWH with ALCLs diagnosed between 1996 and 2009 were associated with a conspicuously inferior 5-year survival probability (0.17; 95% CI: 0.07, 0.42) and consistently lagged behind A-BCL subtypes such as Burkitt's (0.43; 95% CI:0.33, 0.57; P = .09) and DLBCL (0.17; 95% CI: 0.06, 0.46; P = .11) and behind HL (0.57; 95% CI: 0.50, 0.65; P < .0001). Despite a small number, those diagnosed between 2010 and 2016 experienced a remarkable improvement in survival (0.67; 95% CI: 0.3, 1) in comparison with PWoH (0.76; 95% CI: 0.66, 0.87; P = .58). Thus, our analysis confirms improved overall survival for aggressive B- and T-cell malignancies among PWH in the last decade.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) represents a heterogeneous group of rare lymphoproliferative disorders. Historically, there has been a lack of pathobiological understanding of PTCL. With the exception of ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma, patients with PTCL have less favorable outcomes, with most patients relapsing shortly after conventional anthracycline-containing multi-agent chemotherapy. The standard management approach for PTCL involves induction therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. Patients with relapsed/refractory PTCL have dismal outcomes and limited treatment options despite the available novel agents, therefore remaining a critical unmet need. By virtue of advancement in cancer biology over the recent years, the treatment landscape of PTCL has gradually evolved from conventional chemotherapy based on solely morphological diagnosis toward more individualized therapies by integrating molecular attributes of PTCL to the traditional treatment paradigm. We are at the edge of witnessing a paradigm shift in PTCL management.

Abstract
There are limited data regarding the combined value of the pretransplant Deauville score (DS) from a positron emission tomography scan and clinical risk factors in patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We performed a retrospective analysis to assess the prognostic role of pretransplant DS in patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive NHL who underwent salvage chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). We identified 174 eligible patients between January 2013 and March 2019. In multivariable analysis, pretransplant DS, B symptoms, and secondary International Prognostic Index (sIPI) were independent risk factors for event-free survival (EFS). These variables were used to derive an integrated risk score that categorized 166 patients with available information for all risk factors into 3 groups: low (n = 92; 55.4%), intermediate (n = 48; 28.9%), and high (n = 26; 15.7%). The new prognostic index showed a strong association with EFS (low-risk vs intermediate-risk hazard ratio [HR], 3.94; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.16-7.17; P < .001; low-risk vs high-risk HR, 10.83; 95% CI, 5.81-20.19; P < .001) and outperformed models based on clinical risk factors or DS alone. These results were validated in 60 patients from an independent external cohort (low-risk vs intermediate-risk HR, 4.04; 95% CI, 1.51-10.82; P = .005; low-risk vs high-risk HR, 10.49; 95% CI, 4.11-26.73; P < .001). We propose and validate a new prognostic index that risk-stratifies patients undergoing salvage chemotherapy followed by ASCT, thereby identifying patients at high risk for posttransplant treatment failure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a heterogenous group of lymphoproliferative disorders which are generally not curable with conventional chemotherapy and associated with inferior outcomes. Pralatrexate is a novel folate analog, the first FDA approved drug) for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) PTCL. AREAS COVERED This paper provides a comprehensive review of PubMed literature describing the use of pralatrexate in R/R peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Pharmacokinetics and mechanism of action of pralatrexate are discussed as well as its clinical efficacy and safety in comparison to other agents available in R/R PTCL. EXPERT OPINION Pralatrexate is an active agent in relapsed/refractory PTCL with lower response rates seen in patients with angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphomas. Mucositis is the most frequently observed adverse event and this can be mitigated by the use of leucovorin along with cyanocobalamin and folic acid.

Abstract
The peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) are rare and heterogeneous diseases characterized by an unfavorable prognosis. Chemotherapy is standard upfront treatment in most patients, but responses are short-lived with few FDA-approved "novel" agents available. We sought to define the impact of these novel agents as single agents or in clinical trials on the outcomes of patients with PTCL. From January 1994 to May 2019, adult patients with PTCL who were managed at our institution were included in this analysis. In addition to patients with incomplete data, those diagnosed with large granular lymphocytic leukemia and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) except for transformed mycosis fungoides were excluded. Statistical analyses were performed using SAS version 9.4. There were 219 patients included in the analysis. The median age at diagnosis was 56 years (range, 18-90 years). First line therapies mostly consisted of combination chemotherapy (75%). There was a statistical difference among patients who received chemotherapy, novel agents alone and in chemotherapy-free combinations, other, and no treatment (P < .0001). In patients who were treated with second line chemotherapy, novel agents alone and in combination without chemotherapy, or other, there was a still a survival benefit favoring novel agents (P = .0417). In the third line, there was no statistical difference among the three groups (P = .569). All patients who received novel therapies and underwent autologous stem cell transplant (autoSCT) achieved a complete response (CR) and had a better survival compared with patients who underwent chemotherapy who had a 70% CR rate prior to autoSCT (P = .046). Exposure to FDA-approved novel agents, immunoepigenetic trials, and clinical trials in general was associated with an overall survival (OS) benefit (P = .003, P = .04, and P = .006, respectively). These data suggest that patients who receive novel agents have superior outcomes compared with patients without exposure to novel therapies who receive chemotherapy-predicated treatments.
