This phase II PRIMO trial demonstrated that duvelisib monotherapy has significant clinical activity in heavily pretreated relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma, with an overall response rate of 48% and complete response rate of 33%. The drug showed a particularly high efficacy in the angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma subgroup with an ORR of 62%, and it was generally tolerable with manageable toxicities and infections, supporting its use as a therapeutic option and further development in PTCL.
