To describe the clinical course of patients with angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy (AILD)-type lymphoma with a sequential treatment with prednisone and COPBLAM/IMVP-16.
A multicenter, prospective, nonrandomized trial.
University medical centers and community hospitals.
Sixty-seven patients were registered, 28 were excluded, and 39 patients were evaluable for response (median age, 59 years; range, 25 to 82 years) (stages I and II, 10%; stages III and IV, 90%; B symptoms, 74%).
Response, survival, and relapse.
Patients initially received prednisone and no further treatment if a complete remission was achieved. Relapsing or refractory patients were treated with COPBLAM/IMVP-16. Patients with life-threatening tumor progression or extension received COPBLAM/IMVP-16 initially. Treatments were chosen in accordance with tumor extension and response to prednisone. Treatment modalities were not compared.
Twenty-eight patients received primary prednisone, 18 received secondary prednisone, and 11 received primary chemotherapy. The complete response rates (with 95% CIs) were 29% (CI, 12% to 46%), 56% (CI, 33% to 79%), and 64% (CI, 36% to 92%), respectively. The median observation time of surviving patients was 28 months (range, 7 to 53). The median overall survival time was 15 months. The probabilities (with 95% CIs) of overall survival, event-free survival, and relapse at 36 months were 40.5% (CI, 24% to 56%), 32.3% (CI, 17% to 47%), and 34.6% (CI, 14% to 56%), respectively. At the time of evaluation, 22 of 39 patients had died, 7 of noninfectious complications and 14 of infections.
Prednisone with or without COPBLAM/IMVP-16 treatment in AILD-type lymphoma leads to complete remissions in about half of the patients and in long-term, disease-free survival for one third.
描述血管免疫母细胞性淋巴结病(AILD)型淋巴瘤患者采用泼尼松序贯COPBLAM/IMVP - 16治疗的临床病程。
一项多中心、前瞻性、非随机试验。
大学医学中心和社区医院。
登记患者67例,排除28例,39例患者可评估疗效(中位年龄59岁;范围25至82岁)(Ⅰ期和Ⅱ期占10%;Ⅲ期和Ⅳ期占90%;有B症状者占74%)。
疗效、生存率和复发情况。
患者最初接受泼尼松治疗,若达到完全缓解则不再接受进一步治疗。复发或难治性患者采用COPBLAM/IMVP - 16治疗。有危及生命的肿瘤进展或扩散的患者最初采用COPBLAM/IMVP - 16治疗。根据肿瘤扩散情况和对泼尼松的反应选择治疗方法。未比较治疗方式。
28例患者接受初始泼尼松治疗,18例接受二次泼尼松治疗,11例接受初始化疗。完全缓解率(95%可信区间)分别为29%(可信区间,12%至46%)、56%(可信区间,33%至79%)和64%(可信区间,36%至92%)。存活患者的中位观察时间为28个月(范围7至53个月)。中位总生存时间为15个月。36个月时总生存、无事件生存和复发的概率(95%可信区间)分别为40.5%(可信区间,24%至56%)、32.3%(可信区间,17%至47%)和34.6%(可信区间,14%至56%)。在评估时,39例患者中有22例死亡,7例死于非感染性并发症,14例死于感染。
在AILD型淋巴瘤中,采用泼尼松联合或不联合COPBLAM/IMVP - 16治疗可使约一半患者达到完全缓解,三分之一患者实现长期无病生存。
