Abstract
ABSTRACT Sterile alpha motif and histidine-aspartate (HD) domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) is a deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase with ara-CTPase activity that confers cytarabine (ara-C) resistance in several hematological malignancies. Targeting SAMHD1's ara-CTPase activity has recently been demonstrated to enhance ara-C efficacy in acute myeloid leukemia. Here, we identify the transcription factor SRY-related HMG-box containing protein 11 (SOX11) as a novel direct binding partner and first known endogenous inhibitor of SAMHD1. SOX11 is aberrantly expressed not only in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), but also in some Burkitt lymphomas. Coimmunoprecipitation of SOX11 followed by mass spectrometry in MCL cell lines identified SAMHD1 as the top SOX11 interaction partner, which was validated by proximity ligation assay. In vitro, SAMHD1 bound to the HMG box of SOX11 with low-micromolar affinity. In situ crosslinking studies further indicated that SOX11-SAMHD1 binding resulted in a reduced tetramerization of SAMHD1. Functionally, expression of SOX11 inhibited SAMHD1 ara-CTPase activity in a dose-dependent manner resulting in ara-C sensitization in cell lines and in a SOX11-inducible mouse model of MCL. In SOX11-negative MCL, SOX11-mediated ara-CTPase inhibition could be mimicked by adding the recently identified SAMHD1 inhibitor hydroxyurea. Taken together, our results identify SOX11 as a novel SAMHD1 interaction partner and its first known endogenous inhibitor with potentially important implications for clinical therapy stratification.

Abstract
Progress in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) has led to significant improvement in outcomes of patients even in the real world (RW) setting albeit to a lesser degree. In parallel to the demonstration of benefit using combination therapy with rituximab plus high-dose cytarabine (R-AraC) as well as dose intensive therapy-autologous stem cell transplantation (DIT-ASCT) consolidation and maintenance, it became clear over the last 2 decades that MCL is a highly heterogenous disease at the molecular level, explaining differences observed in clinical behavior and response to therapy. While clinical prognostic factors and models have helped stratify patients with distinct outcomes, they failed to help guide therapy. The identification of molecular high-risk (HR) features, in particular, but not only, p53 aberrations (including mutations and deletions [del]), as well as complex karyotype (CK), has allowed to identify subsets of patients with poorer outcomes (median overall survival [OS] <2 years) regardless of conventional therapies used. The constant pattern of relapse seen in MCL has fueled sustained and productive efforts, with 7 novel agents approved in the United States (US), showing high and durable efficacy even in HR and chemo-refractory patients and likely curing a subset of patients in the relapsed or refractory (R/R) setting. Progress in diagnostics, in particular next-generation sequencing (NGS), which is accessible in routine practice nowadays, can help recognize patients with HR features, well beyond MIPI or Ki-67 prognostication, although the impact on decision making is still unclear. The era of integrating novel agents into our prior standard of care (SOC) has begun with a confirmed benefit, for example, ibrutinib (Ib) in the TRIANGLE study, defining the first new potential SOC in younger patients in over 30 years. Expanding on novel agents, either in combination, sequentially or to replace chemotherapy altogether, using biological doublets or triplets has led to a median progression-free survival (PFS) in excess of 72 months, certainly competitive with prior SOC and will continue to reshape the management of MCL patients. Achieving minimal residual disease negative (MRD-ve) status is becoming a new endpoint in MCL, and customizing maintenance and/or de-escalation/consolidation strategies is within reach, although it will require prospective, built-in MRD-based approaches, with the goal of eliminating subclinical disease and not simply delaying time to relapse. Taking into account the biological diversity of MCL is now feasible in routine clinical practice and has already helped recognize what not to do for HR patients (i.e., avoid intensive induction chemotherapy and/or ASCT for p53 mutated patients) as well as identify promising novel options. Ongoing and future work will help expand on these dedicated approaches, to further improve the management and outcomes of all MCL patients.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) prognosis has significantly improved in recent years; however, the possible survival benefit of new treatment options should be evaluated outside of clinical trials. We investigated 73 consecutive MCL patients managed from 2006 to 2020. For younger patients <65 years old, the median PFS was 72 months and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year PFS of 73%, 62%, and 41%; median OS was not reached and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year OS of 88%, 82%, and 66%. For patients aged 75 years or older, the median PFS was 36 months and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year PFS of 52%, 37%, and 37%; median OS was not reached and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year OS of 72%, 55%, and 55%. The median PFS was significantly reduced for patients treated between 2006 and 2010 compared to patients treated between 2011 and 2015 (p = 0.04). Interestingly, there was a trend towards improved OS for patients treated between 2016 and 2020 compared to between 2006 and 2010 and between 2011 and 2015 (5-year OS was 91%, 44%, and 33%). These findings could be due to the introduction of BR as a first-line regimen for elderly patients and to the introduction of ibrutinib as a second-line regimen.

Abstract
Over the past decades, significant strides have been made in understanding the pathobiology, prognosis, and treatment options for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The heterogeneity observed in MCL's biology, genomics, and clinical manifestations, including indolent and aggressive forms, is intricately linked to factors such as the mutational status of the variable region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene, epigenetic profiling, and Sox11 expression. Several intriguing subtypes of MCL, such as Cyclin D1-negative MCL, in situ mantle cell neoplasm, CCND1/IGH FISH-negative MCL, and the impact of karyotypic complexity on prognosis, have been explored. Notably, recent immunochemotherapy regimens have yielded long-lasting remissions in select patients. The therapeutic landscape for MCL is continuously evolving, with a shift towards nonchemotherapeutic agents like ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and venetoclax. The introduction of BTK inhibitors has brought about a transformative change in MCL treatment. Nevertheless, the challenge of resistance to BTK inhibitors persists, prompting ongoing efforts to discover strategies for overcoming this resistance. These strategies encompass non-covalent BTK inhibitors, immunomodulatory agents, BCL2 inhibitors, and CAR-T cell therapy, either as standalone treatments or in combination regimens. Furthermore, developing novel drugs holds promise for further improving the survival of patients with relapsed or refractory MCL. In this comprehensive review, we methodically encapsulate MCL's clinical and pathological attributes and the factors influencing prognosis. We also undertake an in-depth examination of stratified treatment alternatives. We investigate conceivable resistance mechanisms in MCL from a genetic standpoint and offer precise insights into various therapeutic approaches for relapsed or refractory MCL.

Abstract
PURPOSE With modern treatments, mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients more frequently experience long-lasting remission resulting in a growing population of long-term survivors. Follow-up care includes identification and management of treatment-related late-effects, such as secondary malignancies (SM). We conducted a population-based study to describe the burden of SM in MCL patients. METHODS All patients with a primary diagnosis of MCL, aged ≥ 18 years and diagnosed between 2000 and 2017 in Sweden were included along with up to 10 individually matched population comparators. Follow-up was from twelve months after diagnosis/matching until death, emigration, or December 2019, whichever occurred first. Rates of SM among patients and comparators were estimated using the Anderson-Gill method (accounting for repeated events) and presented as hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) adjusted for age at diagnosis, calendar year, sex, and the number of previous events. RESULTS Overall, 1 452 patients and 13 992 comparators were followed for 6.6 years on average. Among patients, 230 (16%) developed at least one SM, and 264 SM were observed. Relative to comparators, patients had a higher rate of SM, HRadj= 1.6 (95%CI:1.4-1.8), and higher rates were observed across all primary treatment groups: the Nordic-MCL2 protocol, R-CHOP, R-bendamustine, ibrutinib, lenalidomide, and R-CHOP/Cytarabine. Compared to Nordic-MCL2, treatment with R-bendamustine was independently associated with an increased risk of SM, HRadj= 2.0 (95%CI:1.3-3.2). Risk groups among patients were those with a higher age at diagnosis (p < 0.001), males (p = 0.006), and having a family history of lymphoma (p = 0.009). Patients had preferably higher risk of melanoma, other neoplasms of the skin and other hematopoietic and lymphoid malignancies. CONCLUSIONS MCL survivors have an increased risk of SM, particularly if treated with R-bendamustine. The intensive treatments needed for long-term remissions are a concern, and transition to treatment protocols with sustained efficacy but with a lower risk of SM is needed.
