Abstract:
Objective:To compare the predictive values of response evaluation criteria in lymphoma (RECIL)2017 and Lugano classification for the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL) at the end of treatment.Methods:A total of 107 patients (50 males, 57 females, age (49.3±17.4) years) with DLBCL who underwent PET/CT at the end of chemotherapy in the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University between February 2014 and December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. The RECIL2017 and Lugano classification were used to evaluate the response. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The Kappa test was used to evaluate the consistency of the two criteria after chemotherapy, and ROC curve (Delong test)was used to compare the predictive values of the two criteria for PFS and OS. Results:The median follow-up time was 47.5(33.4, 57.5) months. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the 5-year PFS rates (74.5%(35/47), 71.4%(15/21), 57.1%(12/21), 4/18; χ2=38.85, P<0.001) and OS rates (89.4%(42/47), 81.0%(17/21), 61.9%(13/21), 7/18; χ2=29.52, P<0.001) in complete metabolic response (CMR), partial metabolic response (PMR), no metabolic response (NMR) and progressive metabolic disease (PMD) groups evaluated by Lugano classification were statistically different, as well as those in complete response (CR), partial response (PR), minor response (MR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD) groups evaluated by the RECIL2017 (5-year PFS rates: 76.9%(40/52), 8/12, 6/11, 6/12, 30.0%(6/20), χ2=29.05, P<0.001; 5-year OS rates: 90.4%(47/52), 8/12, 6/11, 9/12, 45.0%(9/20), χ2=23.63, P<0.001). The RECIL2017 and Lugano classification had good consistency in the efficacy evaluation of DLBCL patients at the end of chemotherapy (70.1%(75/107); Kappa=0.57, P<0.001). The AUCs of Lugano classification for predicting PFS and OS were 0.730 (95% CI: 0.625-0.834, P<0.001) and 0.908 (95% CI: 0.845-0.970, P<0.001) respectively, and those of RECIL2017 were 0.717 (95% CI: 0.612-0.822, P<0.001) and 0.880 (95% CI: 0.812-0.949, P<0.001). The AUCs of the Lugano classification for PFS and OS were slightly higher than those of RECIL2017, without significant differences ( z values: 0.44, 1.09, both P>0.05) . Conclusion:Both RECIL2017 and Lugano classification can evaluate the prognosis of patients with DLBCL at the end of treatment, and Lugano classification is more accurate.
