Gemcitabine and Oxaliplatinum: An Effective Regimen in a Patient with Progressive Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma
2004
We report here a 68-year-old man with progressive refractory Mantle cell Lymphoma stage IV-A, treated with different chemotherapeutic drugs. With no therapeutic options we decided to treat him with oxaliplatinum-gemcitabine regimen, based on the proven efficacy and synergy of these drugs in other tumors and lymphomas. Treatment was well tolerated and patient achieved a maintained complete remission with 6 months of follow up. We consider that this may be a salvage therapeutic option for patients with mantle cell lymphoma.
