Abstract

Purpose: Cure of infection induces remissions in most patients with early stage Helicobacter pylori- (Hp) positive gastric MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue) lymphoma (GML). We tracked the long-term stability of remissions in this prospective, multicenter trial. Patients and Methods: In 120 patients with stage I 1E disease, we performed sequential endoscopic-bioptic follow-up after Hp eradication and polymerase chain reaction of the rearranged immunoglobulin heavy chain gene. The status of t(11;18) was assessed in 65 patients. Results: Median follow-up was 75 months (range, one to 116). Five-year survival was 90%. Eighty percent of patients (96 of 120) achieved complete histologic remission (CR). Eighty percent of CRs are in continuous complete histologic remission (CCR). Three percent of CR patients (three of 96) relapsed and were referred for alternative treatment. Seventeen percent of CR patients (16 of 96) showed histologic residual disease (RD) during follow-up; a watch-and-wait strategy was applied, and all entered into a second CR. After a median follow-up of 63 months, 14 of 52 analyzed patients reaching CR showed ongoing B-cell monoclonality. Fifteen percent of GMLs were t(11;18) positive. Both t(11;18) and ongoing monoclonality were associated with a significantly higher risk for no response or relapse (P =.004, P =.007), but also present in patients in CCR. Early gastric cancer was diagnosed in three cases during follow-up. Conclusion: Cure of Hp infection results in CCR in most patients. Histologic RD, B-cell monoclonality, and t(11;18) were present in a considerable number of CR patients. A watch-and-wait strategy is justified when close follow-up is guaranteed.

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.
