REVIEW
New Therapies for the Treatment of Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia.
Transfusion Medicine Reviews 2022 October
In this review article we provide a critical insight into recent reports evaluating innovative therapies for warm type autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA). Among published articles, we selected two reports on the use of the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib in association with dexamethasone or rituximab, one study on the spleen tyrosine kinase inhibitor fostamatinib, and a retrospective study on recombinant erythropoietin (rEPO). Among recent scientific communications, we discussed a report on the phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta inhibitor (PI3Kδi) parsaclisib. All studies highlighted a good efficacy although to be confirmed in larger trials and with limitations due to the heterogeneity of wAIHA patients enrolled, the small number of subjects, the concomitant medications allowed, and the short follow-up. Ongoing trials include new B-cell/plasma-cell targeting agents such as the Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors ibrutinib and rilzabrutinib, and the anti-CD38 MoAbs daratumumab and its analogue isatuximab. Further drugs in clinical trials target the complement cascade in wAIHA with complement activation, such as the C3 inhibitor pegcetacoplan and the C1q inhibitor ANX005. Finally, an interesting and non-immuno-toxic strategy is to remove the pathogenic autoantibodies via blocking the neonatal Fc receptor, by intravenous nipocalimab and subcutaneous RVT-1401. Such novel agents targeting the several immunopathological mechanisms acting in wAIHA and their possible combination, will increase the therapeutic armamentarium and possibly fill the gap of wAIHA relapsed after/refractory to rituximab. Moreover, these new target therapies may represent a tool for the unmet need of very acute cases.
