RESUMEN
The present study aimed to investigate the clinical features, prognosis, and treatment of advanced-stage non-nasal type extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL). This real-world study retrospectively reviewed 56 newly diagnosed advanced-stage non-nasal type ENKTCL patients from two large-scale Chinese cancer centers in the last 10-15 years and screened 139 newly diagnosed advanced-stage nasal type ENKTCLs admitted during the same period for comparison. The non-nasal type ENKTCLs exhibited significantly higher Ki-67 expression levels compared to nasal type disease (P = 0.011). With a median follow-up duration of 75.03 months, the non-nasal group showed slightly inferior survival outcomes without statistically significant differences compared to the nasal group (median overall survival (OS): 14.57 vs. 21.53 months, 5-year OS: 28.0% vs. 38.5%, P = 0.120). Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≥ 2 (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.18, P = 0.039) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) elevation (HR = 2.44, P = 0.012) were significantly correlated with worse OS in the non-nasal group. First-line gemcitabine-based chemotherapy regimens showed a trend toward slightly improved efficacy and survival outcomes compared to non-gemcitabine-based ones in the present cohort of non-nasal ENKTCLs (objective response rate: 91.7% vs. 63.6%, P = 0.144; complete response rate: 50.0% vs. 33.3%, P = 0.502; median progression-free survival: 10.43 vs. 3.40 months, P = 0.106; median OS: 25.13 vs. 9.30 months, P = 0.125), which requires further validation in larger sample size studies. Advanced-stage non-nasal type patients could achieve comparable prognosis with nasal cases after rational therapy. The modified nomogram-revised index (including age, ECOG score, and LDH) and modified international prognostic index (including age, ECOG score, LDH, and number of extranodal involvement) functioned effectively for prognostic stratification in non-nasal type ENKTCLs.

In this prospective, multicenter, Phase 2 clinical trial (NCT02987244), patients with peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) who had responded to first-line chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin or epirubicin, vincristine or vindesine, etoposide, and prednisone (Chi-CHOEP) were treated by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) or with chidamide maintenance or observation. A total of 85 patients received one of the following interventions: ASCT (n = 15), chidamide maintenance (n = 44), and observation (n = 26). estimated 3 PFS and OS rates were 85.6%, 80.8%, and 49.4% (P = 0.001). The two-year OS rates were 85.6%, 80.8%, and 69.0% (P = 0.075).The ASCT and chidamide maintenance groups had significantly better progression-free survival (PFS) than the observation group (P = 0.001, and P = 0.01, respectively). The overall survival (OS) differed significantly between the chidamide maintenance group and the observation group ( P = 0.041). The multivariate and propensity score matching analyses for PFS revealed better outcomes in the subjects in the chidamide maintenance than observation groups (P = 0.02). The ASCT and chidamide maintenance groups had significant survival advantages over the observation group. In the post-remission stage of the untreated PTCL patients, single-agent chidamide maintenance demonstrated superior PFS and better OS than observation. Our findings highlight the potential benefit of chidamide in this patient subset, warranting further investigation through larger prospective trials.

Low-risk early-stage extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type has a favorable outcome with radiation therapy alone, and the addition of chemotherapy shows no survival benefit. Nonetheless, a proportion of patients will relapse or progress, with a dismal outcome, highlighting the need for a novel therapeutic strategy. Promising preliminary findings indicate the efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, with good toxicity profiles. Here we describe the design of a phase II study (CLCG-NKT-2101), which is evaluating the safety and efficacy of adding anti-PD-1 antibody to the current radiation therapy regimen in low-risk early-stage extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type patients. Tislelizumab will be added in an inductive and concurrent way to radiation therapy. The primary end point will be the complete response rate after induction immunotherapy. Clinical trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05149170).

The study investigated the treatment and prognosis of advanced-stage extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL). With a median follow-up of 75.03 months, the median overall survival (mOS) for the 195 newly diagnosed stage III/IV ENKTL patients was 19.43 months, and estimated 1-, 2-, 3- and 5-year OS were 59.5%, 46.3%, 41.8% and 35.1%, respectively. Chemotherapy (CT) + radiotherapy (RT) compared to CT alone (P = .007), and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) compared to non-HSCT (P < .001), both improved OS. For patients ≤60 years and ineligible for HSCT, other therapies with complete remission led to comparable OS (P = .141). Nine patients ever treated with chidamide achieved a median progression-free survival (mPFS) and mOS of 53.63 (range, 3.47-92.33) and 54.80 (range, 5.50-95.70) months, and four with chidamide maintenance therapy (MT) achieved a mPFS and mOS of 55.83 (range, 53.27-92.33) and 60.65 (range, 53.70-95.70) months, possibly providing an alternative option for non-HSCT patients. Non-anthracycline (ANT)- compared to ANT-, asparaginase (Aspa)- compared to non-Aspa- and gemcitabine (Gem)- compared to non-Gem-based regimens, prolonged PFS (P = .031; P = .005; P = .009) and OS (P = .010; P = .086; P = .003), respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that Gem-based regimens improved PFS (HR = 0.691, P = .061) and OS (HR = 0.624, P = .037). Gem + Aspa combinations slightly improved PFS and OS compared to regimens containing Gem or Aspa alone (P > 0.05). First-line "intensive therapy," including CT (particularly Gem + Aspa regimens), RT, HSCT and alternative chidamide MT, was proposed and could improve long-term survival for advanced-stage ENKTLs. Ongoing prospective clinical studies may shed further light on the value of chidamide MT.

Survival from extranodal nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL) has substantially improved over the last decade. However, there is little consensus as to whether a population of patients with ENKTCL can be considered "cured" of the disease. We aimed to evaluate the statistical "cure" of ENKTCL in the modern treatment era. This retrospective multicentric study reviewed the clinical data of 1,955 patients with ENKTCL treated with non-anthracycline-based chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy in the China Lymphoma Collaborative Group multicenter database between 2008 and 2016. A non-mixture cure model with incorporation of background mortality was fitted to estimate cure fractions, median survival times and cure time points. The relative survival curves attained plateau for the entire cohort and most subsets, indicating that the notion of cure was robust. The overall cure fraction was 71.9%. The median survival was 1.1 years in uncured patients. The cure time was 4.5 years, indicating that beyond this time, mortality in ENKTCL patients was statistically equivalent to that in the general population. Cure probability was associated with B symptoms, stage, performance status, lactate dehydrogenase, primary tumor invasion, and primary upper aerodigestive tract site. Elderly patients (>60 years) had a similar cure fraction to that of younger patients. The 5-year overall survival rate correlated well with the cure fraction across risk-stratified groups. Thus, statistical cure is possible in ENKTCL patients receiving current treatment strategies. Overall probability of cure is favorable, though it is affected by the presence of risk factors. These findings have a high potential impact on clinical practice and patients' perspective.

Recently, progression-free survival at 24 months (PFS24) was defined as clinically relevant for patients with extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma. Herein, the clinical data from two independent random cohorts (696 patients each in the primary and validation datasets) were used to develop and validate a risk index for PFS24 (PFS24-RI), and evaluate its ability to predict early progression. Patients achieving PFS24 had a 5-year overall survival (OS) of 95.8%, whereas OS was only 21.2% in those failing PFS24 (P<0.001). PFS24 was an important predictor of subsequent OS, independent of risk stratification. The proportion of patients achieving PFS24 and 5-year OS rates correlated linearly among risk-stratified groups. Based on multivariate analysis of the primary dataset, the PFS24-RI included five risk factors: stage II or III/IV, elevated lactate dehydrogenase, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group score ≥2, primary tumor invasion, and extra-upper aerodigestive tract. PFS24-RI stratified the patients into low-risk (0), intermediate-risk (1-2), high-risk (≥3) groups with different prognoses. Harrell's C-index of PFS24-RI for PFS24 prediction was 0.667 in the validation dataset, indicating a good discriminative ability. PFS24-RI calibration indicated that the actual observed and predicted probability of failing PFS24 agreed well. PFS24-RI provided the probability of achieving PFS24 at an individual patient level.

Camrelizumab, a programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor, has been approved for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma, nasopharyngeal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. The aim of this study was to perform a population pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis of camrelizumab to quantify the impact of patient characteristics and to investigate the appropriateness of a flat dose in the dosing regimen. A total of 3092 camrelizumab concentrations from 133 patients in four clinical trials with advanced melanoma, relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma and other solid tumor types were analyzed using nonlinear mixed effects modeling. The PKs of camrelizumab were properly described using a two-compartment model with parallel linear and nonlinear clearance. Then, covariate model building was conducted using stepwise forward addition and backward elimination. The results showed that baseline albumin had significant effects on linear clearance, while actual body weight affected intercompartmental clearance. However, their impacts were limited, and no dose adjustments were required. The final model was further evaluated by goodness-of-fit plots, bootstrap procedures, and visual predictive checks and showed satisfactory model performance. Moreover, dosing regimens of 200 mg every 2 weeks and 3 mg/kg every 2 weeks provided similar exposure distributions by model-based Monte Carlo simulation. The population analyses demonstrated that patient characteristics have no clinically meaningful impact on the PKs of camrelizumab and present evidence for no advantage of either the flat dose or weight-based dose regimen for most patients with advanced solid tumors.

We aimed to determine the survival benefits of chemotherapy (CT) added to radiotherapy (RT) in different risk groups of patients with early-stage extranodal nasal-type NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL), and to investigate the risk of postponing RT based on induction CT responses. A total of 1360 patients who received RT with or without new-regimen CT from 20 institutions were retrospectively reviewed. The patients had received RT alone, RT followed by CT (RT + CT), or CT followed by RT (CT + RT). The patients were stratified into different risk groups using the nomogram-revised risk index (NRI). A comparative study was performed using propensity score-matched (PSM) analysis. Adding new-regimen CT to RT (vs RT alone) significantly improved overall survival (OS, 73.2% vs 60.9%, P < .001) and progression-free survival (PFS, 63.5% vs 54.2%, P < .001) for intermediate-risk/high-risk patients, but not for low-risk patients. For intermediate-risk/high-risk patients, RT + CT and CT + RT resulted in non-significantly different OS (77.7% vs 72.4%; P = .290) and PFS (67.1% vs 63.1%; P = .592). For patients with complete response (CR) after induction CT, initiation of RT within or beyond three cycles of CT resulted in similar OS (78.2% vs 81.7%, P = .915) and PFS (68.2% vs 69.9%, P = .519). For patients without CR, early RT resulted in better PFS (63.4% vs 47.6%, P = .019) than late RT. Risk-based, response-adapted therapy involving early RT combined with CT is a viable, effective strategy for intermediate-risk/high-risk early-stage patients with ENKTCL in the modern treatment era.

Interstitial pneumonia (IP) is a lethal complication in lymphoma patients undergoing chemotherapy. A total of 2212 consecutive patients diagnosed with lymphoma between 2009 and 2014 were enrolled in the present study. IP was defined as diffuse pulmonary interstitial infiltrate found on computed tomography scans. IP was observed in 106 patients. Of these, 23 patients were excluded from the study. Finally, 83 patients with IP were included in this study. The incidence of IP was 3.9% (7/287) in Hodgkin lymphoma and 2.4% (76/1925) in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (P = 0.210). The median number of chemotherapy cycles before IP was 3. The median time from the cessation of chemotherapy to IP was 17 days. Eighty-two (98.8%) patients recovered after the treatment with glucocorticoids. Sixty-six (79.5%) patients had a delay in chemotherapy, and 14 (16.9%) patients had premature termination of chemotherapy. Sixty-nine patients were re-treated with chemotherapy after remission from IP, of which 22 (31.9%) experienced IP recurrence. The incidence of IP recurrence was significantly higher in patients re-treated with a similar regimen than in those re-treated with an alternative regimen (65.4 vs. 11.6%, P < 0.001). In a multivariate Cox regression analysis, B symptoms and a history of drug allergies were identified as risk factors for IP. In conclusion, IP is a life-threatening complication in lymphoma patients. Glucocorticoid therapy with continuous monitoring of chest radiographic changes may be a favourable strategy for treating IP. However, IP may recur, especially in patients re-treated with a similar chemotherapy regimen.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical characteristics, overall survival as well as to evaluate the prognostic factors in Chinese diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. METHODS: DLBCL patients who were initially diagnosed and treated in Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 1995 to December 2008 were identified and analyzed,retrospectively.The 5-year OS rates were estimated with Kaplan-Meier. Log-rank test was used to compare the survival curves of the different groups. The multivariate analysis of prognostic factors was conducted with Cox regression model, which included all statistically significant prognostic factors in the univariate analyses. RESULTS: A total of 525 DLBCL patients were included in this retrospective analysis, of whom, 294 were male and 231 female (male:female=1.27:1). The median age at the initial diagnosis was 55 (range 16-90) years, and 37.0% (n=194) were 60 years and above. Regarding the clinical staging at the initial diagnosis, 54 patients (10.3%) were diagnosed as Stage I of the disease, 152 (28.9%) as Stage II, 117 (22.3%) as Stage III and 202 (38.5%) as Stage IV. The "B symptoms" and increased serum LDH were presented in 206 (39.2%) and 192 (36.6%) patients, respectively. A total of 197 (37.5%) patients were treated with rituximab (R). The survival follow-up continued till 31 January 2014 with a median follow-up time of 77.5 (range: 0-205) months. A total of 267 patients (50.9%) died during the follow-up period. The medial overall survival (OS) time was 84 months, and 5-year OS rate was 52.3%. There were six statistically significant prognostic factors that were identified in both univariate and multivariate analyses: gender, Ann Arbor stage, B symptom, serum LDH, age at initial diagnosis and rituximab treatment. The relative risk (RR) of these prognostic factors in the multivariate analyses were: age > 60 years / ≤ 60 years=1.380 (95%CI 1.078-1.765), male / female=1.315 (95%CI 1.025-1.687), stage III/stage I=3.034 (95%CI 1.667-5.522), stage IV/I=3.748(95%CI 2.102-6.681), with B symptoms/without B symptoms=1.278(95%CI 0.999-1.636), serum LDH increased/LDH not increased=1.351(95%CI 1.057-1.726), without R treatment / with R treatment=1.543 (95%CI 1.182-2.015).Compared with the IPI, age >50 years/ ≤ 50 years was a statistically significant factor in both univariate and multivariate analyses RR=1.478 (95%CI 1.148-1.902), P=0.002. CONCLUSION: Six factors were related to DLBCL survival: gender, Ann Arbor stage, B symptom, serum LDH, age at initial diagnosis and rituximab treatment. Compared with the IPI, several specific factors may predict a poor prognosis in Chinese DLBCL patients: male, age>50 years and the presence of "B symptoms". But this result is not conclusive until these factors are further tested.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with primary testicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. METHODS: The clinical profiles and prognostic factors of 21 cases newly diagnosed as primary testicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma at Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 2005 to December 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: Their median age was 59 (34-86) years. And they were classified as Ann Arbor stage I (n = 8), stage II (n = 2) and stage IV (n = 11). There were B symptoms (n = 4), extranodal involvement outside testis (n = 12) and elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) at diagnosis (n = 6). The scores of international prognostic index (IPI) were 0-1 point (n = 10), 3 points (n = 10) and 4 points (n = 1). The regimens included orchidectomy as the initial treatment (n = 15), chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy (n = 7) and CNS prophylaxis during treatment (n = 15). All patients were pathologically diagnosed as diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. And 11 cases belonged to the non-germinal center B cell-like subgroup.First-line chemotherapy was either R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisolone) or CHOP-like-based regimen. Complete response was achieved in 85.7% of patients. The median follow-up period was 18 (6-58) months. The 1, 2 and 3-year survival rates were 100%, 80% and 60% respectively. Statistical analysis showed that the first-line chemotherapy with rituximab was a prognostic factor (P = 0.038).Other factors included stage (P = 0.275), LDH level (P = 0.179) , ß2-microglobulin level (P = 0.229) and IPI (P = 0.275) . CONCLUSIONS: The prognosis of primary testicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is usually poor. The first-line chemotherapy with rituximab is a prognostic factor.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL). METHODS: The clinical features and prognostic factors of 42 cases newly diagnosed as AITL at Peking University Cancer Hospital from January 2007 to August 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: Their median age was 59(34-76) years. Among them, 97.6% cases (41/42) belonged to Ann Arbor stage III/IV, 73.8% (31/42) cases presented with B symptoms, 85.7% (36/42)cases had painless lymphadenopathy, 52.4% (22/42)cases extranodal involvement, 64.3% (27/42) cases elevated lactate dehydrogenase and 45.2% (19/42) cases elevated ß2-microglobulin at diagnosis. And 40.5% (17/42) cases had 3 points of international prognostic index (IPI) score with the highest proportion.First-line chemotherapy was predominantly CHOP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisolone) or CHOP-like-based and complete response was achieved in 44.7% (17/38) of them. The median follow-up time was 40 (2-106) months The 1, 2, 5-year survival rates were 78%, 57% and 39% respectively.Statistical analysis showed that IPI was an independent prognostic factor (P = 0.009).Other factors included gender (P = 0.311), age (P = 0.263), with or without B symptoms (P = 0.102), Ki-67 index (P = 0.146) as well as the choice of first-line chemotherapy (P = 0.292) each had a tendency of affecting; the survival rate, but failed to reach statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma is a major type of peripheral T-cell lymphoma. Most AITL patients are elders with a late stage. The disease generally displays an aggressive clinical course and poor prognosis.

Limited research exists on factors influencing the place of death (POD) or hospital deaths among lymphoma patients in China, despite the country's significant burden of lymphoid neoplasms. This study aimed to describe the distribution of POD among lymphoma patients and identify the factors associated with hospital lymphoma deaths to provide evidence for developing targeted healthcare policies. Data in this study were obtained from the National Mortality Surveillance System (NMSS). The distribution of POD among individuals who died from lymphoma was analyzed, and factors influencing the choice of dying in the hospital were examined. Chi-square test was employed to analyze the differences in characteristic distributions. Multilevel logistic regression analysis was identify the relationship between hospital deaths due to lymphoma and individual factors, as well as socioeconomic contextual variables. During 2013-2021, there were 66772 lymphoma deaths reported by the NMSS, including 44327 patients (66.39%) who died at home and 21211 (31.77%) died in the hospital. Female patients, those had a higher level of educational attainment, retired individuals, those died of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, residents of urban areas, patients between the ages of 0 and 14, and unmarried individuals had a higher probability of dying in hospitals. Improving health care providers' understanding of palliative care for cancer patients and prioritizing accessible services are essential to enhance the quality of end-of-life care. These approaches ensure the equitable allocation of healthcare resources and provide diverse options for minorities with specific preferences regarding end-of-life care.
RESUMEN
This study aimed to investigate the characteristics and prognosis of distant metastasis (DM) after primary treatment for early-stage extranodal nasal-type natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL). A total of 1619 patients from the China Lymphoma Collaborative Group database were retrospectively reviewed. The cumulative incidence of DM was assessed using Fine and Gray's competing risk analysis. The correlation between DM sites was evaluated using phi coefficients, while DM sites were classified using hierarchical clustering. Regression analysis was used to assess the linear correlation between DM-free survival (DMFS) and overall survival (OS). The 5-year cumulative DM rate was 26.2%, with the highest annual hazard rate being in the first year (14.9%). The most frequent DM sites were the skin and soft tissues (SSTs, 32.4%) and distant lymph nodes (LNs, 31.3%). DM sites were categorized into four subgroups of distinct prognosis - distant LN, SST, extracutaneous site, and lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. SST or distant LN, solitary metastasis, and late-onset DM demonstrated a relatively favorable prognosis. Contemporary chemotherapy significantly decreased DM rates and improved DMFS. Decreased DM rates were further associated with increased OS probabilities. Our findings improve the understanding of the variable clinical behaviors of early-stage ENKTCL based on four distinct DM sites and thus provide guidance for future therapeutic decisions, metastatic surveillance, and translational trial design.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is the second most frequent extranasal involvement site for ENKTL. This study aimed to explore the clinicopathological features, treatment models, survival outcomes, and prognosis of gastrointestinal ENKTL (GI-ENKTL). METHODS: The clinical data of GI-ENKTL patients were extracted from the China Lymphoma Collaborative Group (CLCG) database and were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: A total of 30 patients were enrolled, with a male/female ratio of 4:1 and a median age of 42 years. Twenty-nine patients received chemotherapy, of whom 15 patients received asparaginase-based (ASP-based) regimens. Moreover, seven received surgery and three received radiotherapy. The overall response an d complete remission rates were 50.0% and 30.0% for the whole cohort, 50.0% and 37.5% for patients treated with ASP-based regimens, and 50.0% and 25.0% for those treated with non-ASP-based regimens, respectively. The median follow-up was 12.9 months and the 1-year overall survival rate was 40.0% for the whole cohort. For those patients in an early stage, ASP-based regimens resulted in a superior 1-year progression-free survival rate compared to non-ASP-based regimens (100.0% vs. 36.0%, p = .07). However, ASP-based regimens did not improve survival in patients at an advanced stage. CONCLUSION: GI-ENKTL still has a poor prognosis, even in the era of modern asparaginase-based treatment strategies.

Relapsed or refractory (r/r) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive B-cell malignancy with a poor prognosis. Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a mediator of B-cell receptor signaling and is associated with the development of B-cell lymphomas. Patients with r/r MCL were enrolled in this phase 1/2 study and treated with orelabrutinib, a novel, highly selective BTK inhibitor. The median number of prior regimens was 2 (range, 1-4). The median age was 62 years (range, 37-73 years). Eligible patients received oral orelabrutinib 150 mg once daily (n = 86) or 100 mg twice daily (n = 20) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. A dose of 150 mg once daily was chosen as the preferred recommended phase 2 dose. After a median follow-up duration of 23.8 months, the overall response rate was 81.1%, with 27.4% achieving a complete response and 53.8% achieving a partial response. The median duration of response and progression-free survival were 22.9 and 22.0 months, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) was not reached, and the rate of OS at 24 months was 74.3%. Adverse events (AEs) occurring in >20% of patients were thrombocytopenia (34.0%), upper respiratory tract infection (27.4%), and neutropenia (24.5%). Grade ≥3 AEs were infrequent and most commonly included thrombocytopenia (13.2%), neutropenia (8.5%), and anemia (7.5%). Three patients discontinued treatment because of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), but no fatal TRAEs were reported. Orelabrutinib showed substantial efficacy and was well tolerated in patients with r/r MCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03494179.

Mantle cell lymphoma(MCL), a special type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is incurable through conventional treatment. This study aimed to analyze the clinical features, therapeutic responses, and prognosis of patients with MCL. Clinical data of 30 patients with MCL treated in our hospital between April 2006 and July 2011 were analyzed. Eighteen patients were treated with CHOP plus rituximab (R-CHOP) regimen, 12 underwent conventional chemotherapy. The median age of the 30 patients was 58 years, 23 were men, all patients had Cyclin D1 overexpression, 29 (96.7%) had advanced disease, 11 (36.7%) had bone marrow involvement, 9 (30.0%) had gastrointestinal involvement, and 15 (50.0%) had splenomegaly. The complete response(CR) rate and overall response rate(ORR) were significantly higher in patients undergoing R-CHOP immunochemotherapy than in those undergoing conventional chemotherapy (38.9% vs. 16.7%, P = 0.187; 72.2% vs. 41.4%, P = 0.098). The difference of 2-year overall survival rate between the two groups was not significant (P = 0.807) due to the short follow-up time. The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate was higher in R-CHOP group than in conventional chemotherapy group (53% vs. 25%, P = 0.083), and was higher in patients with a lower mantle cell lymphoma international prognostic index (MIPI) (51% for MIPI 0-3, 33% for MIPI 4-5, and 0% for MIPI 6-11, P = 0.059). Most patients with MCL were elderly; in an advanced stage; showed a male predominance; and usually had bone marrow involvement, gastrointestinal involvement, or splenomegaly. R-CHOP regimen could improve the CR rate and ORR of MCL patients. MIPI can be a new prognostic index for predicting the prognosis of advanced MCL.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the safety and adverse event profiling of pegylated L-asparaginase (PEG-asp) combined chemotherapy in the treatment of lymphoma patients. METHODS: The clinical data of 32 lymphoma patients on PEG-asp-based chemotherapy from January 2008 to March 2012 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. RESULTS: There were 22 males and 10 females with a median age of 40 years. They were diagnosed as NK/T cell lymphoma (n = 22) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (n = 10). The overall response rate was 71.9% (23/32). And complete remission was 40.6% (13/32) and partial remission 31.3% (10/32). Myelosuppression was the most common adverse event at an incidence of 81.2% (26/32). Other adverse events included a low level of fibrinogen (n = 13, 40.6%), hypoalbuminemia (n = 8, 25%) and hyperlipidemia (n = 9, 28.1%). No instance of anaphylaxis, acute pancreatitis and thrombosis occurred. CONCLUSION: PEG-asp is both effective and safe in the treatment of lymphoma and it is well-tolerated.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prognostic value of maximum standard uptake (SUVmax) on pretreatment (18)F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scan in patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). METHODS: The clinical data of 39 DLBCL patients undergoing a PET/CT scan at pre-treatment from December 2009 to October 2011 were analyzed retrospectively. SUVmax on PET/CT was evaluated by SPSS 13.0 for the associations with patient characteristics, prognostic factors, treatment efficacy and survival time. RESULTS: The median SUVmax was higher in non-germinal center B cell-like (non-GCB) patients than that in GCB ones (18.0(2.2 - 40.5) vs 11.6 (5.3 - 18.7), P = 0.039). No difference of SUVmax was observed between the patients with and without bulky disease (P = 0.539). SUVmax was not associated with such patient characteristics as international protein index, age, stage, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, lactate dehydrogenase, number of extranodal involvement and Ki-67 (all P > 0.05). No significant difference in median SUVmax existed between complete remission (CR) and non-CR patients (P = 0.312). The difference of SUVmax was insignificant for the patients with efficacy and no efficacy (P = 0.243). With the cut-off values of 10, 15, 20, the CR rate, response rate, 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate and 2-year overall survival (OS) rate were not different between the patients with SUVmax below and above cut-off value (all P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The prognostic value of SUVmax on PET/CT is indeterminate. And it can not be used to predict the patient prognosis.
