Long-term survival in primary CNS lymphoma.

Abstract

PURPOSE: We have previously reported on 31 patients with primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) treated between 1986 and 1992 with methotrexate (MTX), cranial radiotherapy (RT), and high-dose cytarabine who remained free of disease longer than historical controls. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We performed a follow-up analysis of our original cohort and now report their long-term survival and late treatment-related toxicity. RESULTS: The median cause-specific survival was 42 months, with a five-year survival of 22.3% compared with 3% to 4% in historical controls treated with RT alone. Age less than 50 years at diagnosis was a significant prognostic factor for survival (P = .01). Median disease-free survival was 40.3 months; 15 patients relapsed, all but one in the CNS. Late treatment-related toxicity was observed in nearly one third of patients and those more than 60 years of age were at substantially higher risk (P < .0001). CONCLUSION: Combined modality therapy for PCNSL has improved survival, but relapse is common and late neurologic toxicity is a significant complication. Although this approach is highly effective for younger patients, efficacious but less neurotoxic regimens need to be developed for older patients.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
