Methods: A retrospective study of 37 patients with primary testicular DLBCL was carried out from November 2003 to May 2012. Their clinical features, survival and prognostic factors were analyzed. Results: During a median follow-up period of 39.8 months (5.4-93.0 months), the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 26.2 months (95% CI:0-65 months) and the 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 78.4%. Within the whole cohort, the factors significantly associated with a superior PFS were limited stage (stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ≤245 U/L, international prognostic index (IPI) ≤1, primary tumor diameter 〈7.5 cm, and patients who had complete response (CR) and received doxoruhicin-contained chemotherapy (P〈0.05). There was a trend toward superior outcome for patients who received combined therapy (surgery/ chemotherapy/radiotherapy) (P=0.055). Patients who had CR, primary tumor diameter 〈7.5 cm and IPI score ≤1 were significantly associated with longer PFS at multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Primary testicular DLBCL had poorer survival. CR, primary tumor diameter and IPI were independent prognostic factors. The combined therapy of orchectomy, doxorubicin-contained chemotherapy and contralateral testicular radiotherapy (RT) seemed to improve survival.展开更多

We aimed to compare CHOP plus rituximab (R-CHOP) with CHOP alone and determine the value of radiotherapy in these patients. Methods: Between 2003 and 2009, 140 untreated patients with stage I DLBCL were retrospectively analyzed in this study. Results: Seventy-eight patients were treated in R-CHOP group and 62 in CHOP group. Ninety-one patients received additional radiotherapy at the end of chemotherapy. The different treatment groups were well-balanced with respect to baseline characteristics. Complete response (CR) rate was 77% both in R-CHOP and CHOP groups (P=0.945). After a median follow-up period of 56 months, patients received R-CHOP regimen had similar 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) (76% vs. 85%; log-rank P=0.215) and 5-year overall survival (OS) (90% vs. 96%; log-rank P=0.175) compared with those with CHOP alone. Patients with radiotherapy had significantly increased 5-year PFS compared with those who had chemotherapy alone (86% vs. 71%; log-rank P=0.005). At multivariate analysis, patients who had CR (P=0.008) and received radiotherapy (P=0.003) were significantly associated with superior PFS. Conclusions: CHOP alone could be as effective as R-CHOP regimen and additional radiotherapy would be necessary for stage I or stage I non-bulky DLBCL patients.展开更多
