Abstract:
Objective To observe the primary clinical effect of concurrent radiochemotherapy for patients with nasal cavity natural killer (NK)/T cell lymphoma and to analyze the prognostic factors.Methods 31 primary untreated patients with stage Ⅱ nasal cavity NK/T cell lymphoma were enrolled for this study.All patients underwent concurrent radiochemotherapy with intensity-modulated radiotherapy technique + asparaginase based chemotherapeutic agents and adjuvant chemotherapy.Results The main toxicities were mouth mucocitis,myelosuppression and xerosmia at grade 1 or 2.31 patients achieved good clinical shortterm effect with high local complete remission rate at the 3rd month after radiotherapy [83.9 % (26/31)],and the 2-year overall survival rate was 77 %.Univariate and multivariate analysis suggested IPI score and clinical short-term effect were the significant independent survival prognostic factors (P < 0.05).Conclusions Concurrent radiochemotherapy for stage Ⅱ nasal cavity NK/T cell lymphoma can be well tolerated by patients with mild toxicities,and can improve both clinical short-term effect and overall survival by high local complete remission rate.IPI score and clinical short-term effect are the important survival prognostic factors.
