UNASSIGNED: We evaluated the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with DLBCL based on histological BM involvement or positive BM IgR using polymerase chain reaction or next-generation sequencing. We also investigated the role of consolidative upfront autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with DLBCL and BM involvement.
UNASSIGNED: Among 624 patients, 123 (19.7%) with histological BM involvement and 88 (17.5%) with positive IgR in histologically negative BM had more advanced disease characteristics. Overall (OS) and progression-free (PFS) survival was better for patients with negative BM histology and negative IgR than that in patients with histological BM involvement (P = 0.050 and P < 0.001, respectively) and positive IgR with negative BM histology (P = 0.001 and P = 0.005, respectively). Survival rates did not differ among 82 (13.1%) patients who were treated with upfront ASCT and had histological BM involvement or positive IgR with negative BM histology. The survival outcomes were worse for patients who were not treated with upfront ASCT and for those with histological BM involvement or positive IgR, than for those with negative BM histology and negative IgR.
UNASSIGNED: Patients diagnosed with DLBCL and BM involvement based on histology or IgR had aggressive clinical features and poor survival. Upfront ASCT mitigated poor prognosis due to BM involvement.
我们使用聚合酶链反应或下一代测序,根据组织学BM受累或BMIgR阳性评估DLBCL患者的临床特征和治疗结果。我们还研究了合并前期自体造血干细胞移植(ASCT)在DLBCL和BM受累患者中的作用。
■在624名患者中,在组织学阴性的BM中,123例(19.7%)有组织学BM受累,88例(17.5%)有IgR阳性,具有更晚期的疾病特征。BM组织学阴性和IgR阴性患者的总体生存(OS)和无进展生存(PFS)优于BM组织学受累(分别为P=0.050和P<0.001)和BM组织学阴性的IgR阳性患者(分别为P=0.001和P=0.005)。82例(13.1%)接受早期ASCT治疗且有组织学BM受累或IgR阳性而BM组织学阴性的患者的生存率没有差异。未接受早期ASCT治疗的患者和组织学BM受累或IgR阳性的患者的生存结果更差。比那些阴性BM组织学和阴性IgR。
■根据组织学或IgR诊断为DLBCL和BM受累的患者具有侵袭性临床特征和低生存率。前期ASCT减轻了BM受累导致的不良预后。
