Abstrakt: Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) occurring following organ transplantation (post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder [PTLD]) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is typically treated with high-dose methotrexate-based regimens. Outcomes are dismal and clinical trials are lacking. It is almost always Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) associated. Two patients (CA1-2) presented with EBV-associated PCNSL after renal transplant. CA1 was on hemodialysis and had prior disseminated cryptococcus and pseudomonas bronchiectasis, precluding treatment with methotrexate. CA2 was refractory to methotrexate. Both were treated off-label with the first-generation Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor ibrutinib for 12 months. Cerebrospinal fluid penetration at therapeutic levels was confirmed in CA1 despite hemodialysis. Both patients entered remission by 2 months. Sequencing confirmed absence of genetic aberrations in human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I/II and antigen-presentation/processing genes, indicating retention of the ability to present EBV-antigens. Between Weeks 10 and 13, they received third-party EBV-specific T cells for consolidation with no adverse effects. They remain in remission ≥34 months since therapy began. The strength of these findings led to an ongoing phase I study (ACTRN12618001541291).
