Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognosis of Rituximab combined with DHAX and CHOP regimen in the first-line treatment of elderly patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods:A total of 36 elderly patients with DLBCL who were admitted and treated with 3 of more courses of treatment from August 2011 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed,and they were divided into rituximab± DHAX(R±DHAX)regimen group(18 cases)and rituximab±CHOP(R-CHOP)regimen group(18 cases)according to the treatment plan,and clinical features,efficacy and survival of the patients were observed.Results:Compared with R-CHOP group,patients of the R±DHAX group were older,and had worse performance status and higher IPI score,the differences between two groups in age,ECOG score and IPI score were statistically significant(P=0.005,P=0.018,P=0.035),but there were no significant differences be ween two groups in gender,whether there were B symptoms,whether LDH was elevated,whether there was extranodal involvement,cell origin,bone marrow infiltration,and whether rituximab was combined(P=0.738,P=1,P=0.315,P=0.305,P=0.413,P=0.177,P=0.711,P=0.229).The efficacy could be evaluated in 36 cases,including CR 14(38.9％),PR 17(47.2％),PD 5(13.9％),and ORR of 86.1％(31/36).There were no statistically significant differences in CR[(27.8％(5/18)vs 50.0％(9/18);P＞0.05]and PR[44.4％(8/18)vs 50.0％(9/18);P＞0.05]of R±DHAX group and R-CHOP group,there was statistically significant difference in ORR[72.2％(13/18)vs 100.0％(18/18);P=0.045]between two groups.The 1-year OS of R±DHAX group and R-CHOP group was(38.9+11.5％)％and(94.4±7.4％)％,respectively,2-year OS was(16.7±8.8)％and(72.2±10.6)％,respectively,and the differences between two groups were statistically significant(P=0.001,P=0.002).The median survival time in the R±DHAX group was 11 months(95％CI;8.9-13.1),and the median survival time in the R-CHOP group was not reached,and there was a statistically significant difference between the groups(P＜0.001).Conclusion:For elderly DLBCL patients,R± DHAX may not be superior to R-CHOP in OS,and ECOG score,IPI score and age may affect the survival of elderly DLBCL patients.However,R±DHAX regimen is safe,tolerable and has a certain efficacy,which can be used as one of the clinical treatment options for elderly DLBCL.
