Summary: | CD5-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (CD5+ DLBCL) is characterized by poor prognosis after frontline immunochemotherapy. This retrospective study investigated the effect of consolidative radiation after systemic treatment in newly diagnosed stage I-II de novo CD5+ DLBCL. In this study, 22 patients received consolidative radiotherapy (RT) after immunochemotherapy (chemotherapy + RT group) and 28 patients received chemotherapy alone. Patients who received chemotherapy alone had a significantly shorter PFS and OS than those who received consolidative radiotherapy. The five-year PFS rates for the chemotherapy + RT and chemotherapy alone groups were 75.1% and 40.5%, respectively. The five-year OS rates for the chemotherapy + RT and chemotherapy alone groups were 84.2% and 50.1%, respectively. Even after receiving consolidation radiotherapy, 2/22 (9.1%) patients experienced CNS relapse. Age >60 years and lack of radiotherapy were independent prognostic factors for PFS and OS. Ki-67 (≥80%) was an independent prognostic factor for poor OS. Consolidative radiotherapy might be a good option for stage I-II CD5+ DLBCL, but further investigation is needed. |
