ABSTRACT Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)‐positive smooth muscle tumors (SMTs) are rare seen in immunocompromised patients. There is no clear standard of care for the management and treatment EBV‐SMTs. Patients often treated with chemotherapy, surgery, and/or radiation. Additional options include antiretroviral treatment, reduction immunosuppression, EBV‐directed virus‐specific T cells (VSTs). This report describes regimens outcomes eight patients EBV‐associated SMTs. Although consensus EBV‐SMTs has...
Purpose: Primary central nervous system posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PCNS-PTLD) is a complication of solid organ transplantation with poor prognosis and typically associated Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). We hypothesized EBV lytic-phase protein expression would allow successful treatment antiviral therapy.Patients Methods: Thirteen patients were treated zidovudine (AZT), ganciclovir (GCV), dexamethasone, rituximab in EBV+ PCNS-PTLD. Twice-daily, intravenous AZT 1,500 mg, GCV 5...
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an incurable B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and patients who relapse on targeted therapies have poor prognosis. Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5), enzyme essential for transformation, drives multiple oncogenic pathways overexpressed in MCL. Despite the antitumor activity of PRMT5 inhibition (PRT-382/PRT-808), drug resistance was observed a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) MCL model. Decreased survival mice engrafted with these inhibitor-resistant cells...
Abstract Introduction: Epstein-Barr virus positive (EBV+) central nervous system lymphoproliferative diseases (CNS-LPD) are aggressive clinical conditions with poor prognosis. We have previously reported use of a ganciclovir (GCV), zidovudine (AZT), rituximab and dexamethasone regimen (GARD) that induced complete durable responses in patients primary CNS post-transplant disease (PTLD). Responses were associated detection two GCV/AZT viral drug targets, the EBV protein kinases BGLF4 BXLF1....
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated central nervous system lymphoproliferative diseases (CNSL) are aggressive clinical conditions with poor prognosis. We have reported that durable responses in patients primary CNS post-transplant disease (PTLD) were associated detection of two ganciclovir (GCV)/zidovudine (AZT) viral drug target proteins, the EBV kinases BGLF4 and BXLF1 CNSL biopsies. These lytic mechanism for expression latently infected EBV+ has been unknown. By carrying out RNA analysis...
