Improving outcomes in mantle cell lymphoma patients treated with R-CHOP using autologous transplant.
2017
e18540 Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a small B cell lymphoma, incurable with standard chemo-immunotherapy. There is no standard upfront therapy, although Phase II trials have shown a survival benefit to dose-intensified regimens in selected patients. However, many patients are not candidates for these regimens secondary to age or comorbidites. These patients are often treated with R-CHOP with consideration for consolidation with ASCT. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort analysis to describe and compare the survival experiences of MCL patients at the University of Pennsylvania treated in the first-line setting with R-CHOP (N=32) with or without autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). The primary study endpoint was PFS as assessed by chart review and confirmed by SSDI database. Results: Median follow up for all pts was 2.5 years. The median age was 62.5, and 80% (n=30) were stage IV at diagnosis. 16 patients underwent consolidative ASCT. Comparing patients treated with R-CHOP vs R-CHOP ...
