Immune-related adverse events were frequently observed and required dose reduction of umbralisib in 38% of the patients but most were then able to stay on therapy. Longer follow-up is required to determine durability of remission off therapy.

Targeting of PI3Kδ using FDA-approved drugs Idelalisib or Umbralisib has shown efficacy in treatment of multiple B cell malignancies. Duvelisib, an inhibitor targeting both PI3Kδ and PI3Kγ (PI3Kδγi) has also been used for treatment of several leukemias and lymphomas and was suggested to offer potential additional benefits in supressing T cell and inflammatory responses...Kidney pathology was also impacted, with reduced IgG deposition and glomerulonephritis. These results indicate that dual inhibition of PI3Kδ and PI3Kγ can target autoreactive B cells and may have therapeutic benefits in autoantibody-mediated disease.

Cell response to TG-1801 alone or combined with the U2 regimen associating ublituximab to the PI3Kδ inhibitor umbralisib, was analyzed by proliferation assay, western blot, transcriptomic analysis (qPCR array and RNA sequencing followed by gene set enrichment analysis) and/or quantification of antibody-dependent cell death (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cell phagocytosis (ADCP). Genetic depletion and pharmacological inhibition of GPR183 impaired ADCP initiation, cytoskeleton remodeling and cell migration in 2D and 3D spheroid B-NHL co-cultures, and disrupted macrophage-mediated control of tumor growth in B-NHL CAM xenografts. Altogether, our results support a crucial role for GPR183 in the recognition and elimination of malignant B cells upon concomitant targeting of CD20, CD47 and PI3Kδ, and warrant further clinical evaluation of this triplet regimen in B-NHL.

In this study, new umbralisib analogues were designed and docked to the active site of PI3Kδ, the main target of the phosphoinositol-3-kinase/Akt/mammalian target of the rapamycin pathway (PI3K/AKT/mTOR). The best interaction with gold was observed at the oxygen atom number 5 with -29.42 Kcal/mol. Further in vitro and in vivo investigations are recommended to be carried out to verify the anticancer activity of this analogue.

Four selective PI3K inhibitors have received accelerated FDA approvals for the treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) CLL and/or iNHL based mainly on single-arm Phase II studies: Idelalisib (PI3K-δ inhibitor), copanlisib (dual PI3K-α and PI3K-δ inhibitor), duvelisib (dual PI3K-γ and PI3K-δ inhibitor), and umbralisib (dual PI3Kδ and CK1ε inhibitor). Consequently, the class of PI3K inhibitors came under scrutiny, with an FDA expert panel voting on April 21, 2022, recommending that future FDA approvals of PI3K inhibitors be supported by randomized data, rather than single-arm data only, and further discontinuing the use of almost all the PI3K inhibitors in hematologic malignancies. As we believe further research is needed to help potentialize PI3K inhibitors by improving their safety profiles, this mini-review aims at revisiting the clinical successes, the failures, and the promising aspect of this class of drugs, while presenting possible ways that could benefit its successful development.

Here, we analyzed the impact of the clinically approved PI3Kδ inhibitors idelalisib and umbralisib, the PI3Kγ inhibitor eganelisib, and the dual-γ and -δ inhibitor duvelisib on the functional capacity of T cells. Extrapolation of this data to a clinical setting could provide an explanation for the observed irAEs in CLL patients undergoing treatment with PI3K inhibitors. Consequently, this highlights the need for a close monitoring of patients treated with PI3K inhibitors, and particularly duvelisib, due to their potentially increased risk of T-cell deficiencies and associated infections.

Despite recent advances in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) therapy, such as the use of targeted agents including, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor ibrutinib and the potent BCL-2 antagonist venetoclax, this disease remains incurable for most patients, who are refractory or become resistant to the novel agents...Other drugs that demonstrated high priming included navitoclax (BCL-XL/BCL-2), nutlin-3 (MDM2), abexinostat (HDAC), gandotinib (JAK2), duvelisib (PI3K δ/γ), idelalisib (PI3Kδ) and cerdulatinib (SYK/JAK)...First, we found that IGHV-mutated CLLs (M-CLLs) became more primed to apoptosis than IGHV-unmutated CLLs (U-CLLs) across the panel of drugs (p<0.001, paired t-test) and significantly in response to fludarabine and umbralisib (FDR<0.1, t-test)...EC-i, associated with the intermediate methylation subtype of CLL, was the most resistant EC to ibrutinib but was very sensitive to navitoclax, more than to any other drug. Altogether, we present a framework that links ex-vivo drug response with molecular features including expression subtypes to highlight new therapeutic opportunities in CLL.

Thus, AU2 is a highly effective regimen in patients with previously untreated MCL, including those with high-risk genetics (100% CR rate). While a combination of continuous umbralisib and acalabrutinib was associated with liver function test abnormalities, intermittent dosing of umbralisib was well tolerated.

The combination of a novel highly-specific phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ) inhibitor and casein kinase 1 epsilon (CSK1ε) inhibitor, umbralisib (UMB), and a glycoengineered chimeric monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting a unique epitope on CD20, ublituximab (UBL), with the BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax (VEN) may decrease drug resistance, reduce risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) and achieve higher levels of undetectable minimal residual disease (MRD). In conclusion, our initial data show that treatment with a selective PI3Kδ and CSK1ε inhibitor (UMB) combined with an anti-CD20 mAb (UBL) is effective in decreasing CLL cell counts in all patients assessed in the U2-VEN clinical trial. However, treatment efficacy could be limited by large decreases in the CLL surface CD20 levels.

Our findings suggest novel treatment vulnerabilities in idelalisib-refractory/intolerant CLL, and indicate that ex vivo functional profiling may stratify PI3Ki responders.

It has also been studied in combination with idelalisib or entospletinib in CLL and other B-cell lymphomas though without clear benefi t for the combinations over monotherapy16,17. Tirabrutinib is approved in Japan for WM, lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), and RRPCNSL, and in South Korea for RR-PCNSL18. TG-1701 is a selective covalent BTKi that has been studied as a monotherapy and in combination with ublituximab and umbralisib with preliminary results suggesting both effi cacy and manageable safety19. Orelabrutinib, another selective covalent BTKi, has been studied as a monotherapy in CLL in addition to other B-cell malignancies, also with favorable safety and effi cacy20,21 and it is approved in China for rel/ref CLL and MCL22. Finally, DTRMWXHS-12 is a covalent BTKi that uniquely is being studied in combination with everolimus and pomalidomide (triplet referred to as DTRM-555), given that this combination was determined to lead to synthetic lethality in both in vivo and in vitro screening studies, with safety and activity seen in early studies23,24...This resistance mechanism appears shared among available irreversible BTK inhibitors including ibrutinib, acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib26...Three such inhibitors have completed phase 1 studies in CLL: vecabrutinib, nemtabrutinib, and pirtobrutinib with another currently in phase 1, luxeptinib...Subsequently, pirtobrutinib is being further studied as both a monotherapy and in combination with venetoclax-rituximab in phase 3 trials in both the frontline and relapsed/refractory settings in CLL in addition to MCL...These non-C481 BTK mutations conferred resistance across multiple non-covalent BTKi’s (in addition to pirtobrutinib, vecabrutinib, nemtabrutinib and fenebrutinib were tested) in addition to variable levels of resistance to covalent BTKi’s36...This is being accomplished by improved tolerability, allowing for patients to stay on drug for longer, and potentially improved effi cacy, including activity despite acquisition of C481 resistance mutations, in the case of the non-covalent inhibitors. The non-covalent inhibitors would help fi ll a major area of unmet need for CLL patients progressing on covalent BTK inhibitors who are not candidates for or progress following venetoclax therapy.

With close monitoring and management of adverse events, PI3K inhibitors continue to have a role in therapy of R/R CLL and NHL. Strategies to mitigate adverse events and increase efficacy of PI3K inhibitors include time-limited combination approaches, intermittent dosing schedules.

Aims To characterize functional responses to 10 PI3Ki in CLL To study PI3Ki drug class activity in idelalisib-refractory CLL To investigate whether ex vivo drug sensitivity can predict in vivo treatment responses Methods CLL cells from patients that were treatment naïve (n=7), idelalisib refractory (n=9), or on idelalisib treatment (longitudinal samples from n=6 patients) were screened against 10 PI3Ki (buparlisib, compound 7n, copanlisib, duvelisib, idelalisib, nemiralisib, pictilisib, pilaralisib, umbralisib, ZSTK474), both alone and in combination with the B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) antagonist venetoclax...Ex vivo drug testing on CLL cells from a patient who presented with relapsed disease after sequential treatment with FCR, ibrutinib, idelalisib and venetoclax revealed sensitivity to PI3Ki+venetoclax treatment...Conclusion Our findings indicate PI3Ki drug class activity in idelalisib-refractory CLL, and suggest that ex vivo drug sensitivity may guide precision medicine and predict treatment responses. These results warrant further testing in larger cohorts and in clinical trials.

VL51 developed resistance to idelalisib, copanlisib, duvelisib, and umbralisib...The use of the IL-6R blocking antibody tocilizumab, the STAT3 inhibitor stattic, the LIN28 inhibitor LIN1632, the PDGFR inhibitor masitinib and the anti-CD19 antibody drug conjugate loncastuximab tesirine were active compounds in the resistant cells as single agents and/or in combination with PI3K//inhibition. Findings were validated on additional in vitro lymphoma models and on clinical specimens. A novel model of resistance obtained from splenic MZL allowed the identification of therapeutic approaches able to improve the anti-tumor activity of PI3Kttinhibitors in B-cell lymphoid tumors.
