The optimal management of elderly patients (pts) with Hodgkin's lymphoma is not yet defined. The aims of the present study were: 1) to evaluate clinical and laboratory characteristics of elderly pts; 2) to indentify risk factors for unfavorable outcome.
The outcome of 182 pts ≥ 60 years (y) was retrospectively analyzed (median age, 67y). Mixed cellularity histology was diagnosed in 49.5 %, advanced stage of disease was in 68.7 % pts, CIRS > 3 in 35.7 %, ECOG PS ≥ 2 in 22.9 % (60-69y) of pts. Chemotherapy (CMT) alone was used in 69.2 % and combination of CMT and radiotherapy in 26.9 % of pts. Anthracycline-based CMT received 83.5 % of pts. The median follow-up was 4.5y.
The overall response/complete remission rate was 85.6/70.7 %. The median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 10y and 11.3y, respectively. Estimated 5-y PFS and 5-y OS were 65.7 % (in contrast to 98.2 % in pts < 60y; p < 0.001) and 70.5 % (99.4 % in pts < 60y; p < 0.001). Overall 70 (38.5 %) elderly pts died. The independent risk factors for a shorter OS included CIRS > 3, lymphopenia < 8 % and anthracycline-free CMT, for a shorter PFS anthracycline-free CMT and lymphopenia < 8 %.
CIRS > 3, lymphopenia < 8 % and anthracycline-free chemotherapy appear to be significant for unfavorable outcome.
老年霍奇金淋巴瘤患者的最佳治疗方案尚未明确。本研究的目的是:1)评估老年患者的临床和实验室特征;2)确定不良预后的危险因素。
回顾性分析了182例年龄≥60岁(中位年龄67岁)的患者。49.5%的患者诊断为混合细胞型组织学,68.7%的患者处于疾病晚期,35.7%的患者CIRS>3,22.9%(60 - 69岁)的患者ECOG体能状态≥2。69.2%的患者仅接受化疗,26.9%的患者接受化疗与放疗联合治疗。83.5%的患者接受了含蒽环类药物的化疗。中位随访时间为4.5年。
总缓解率/完全缓解率分别为85.6%/70.7%。中位无进展生存期(PFS)和总生存期(OS)分别为10年和11.3年。估计5年PFS和5年OS分别为65.7%(相比之下,<60岁患者为98.2%;p<0.001)和70.5%(<60岁患者为99.4%;p<0.001)。共有70例(38.5%)老年患者死亡。OS较短的独立危险因素包括CIRS>3、淋巴细胞减少<8%和不含蒽环类药物的化疗,PFS较短的危险因素为不含蒽环类药物的化疗和淋巴细胞减少<8%。
CIRS>3、淋巴细胞减少<8%和不含蒽环类药物的化疗似乎是不良预后的重要因素。
