Abstract
Background: T-cell lymphomas are a heterogeneous group of lymphoid malignancies with poor outcomes. Frontline multiagent chemotherapy options include CHOP (prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin), brentuximab-CHP, CHOEP, and EPOCH (etoposide, prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, and doxorubicin).
Patients and methods: We report our single institution data for safety and efficacy of EPOCH in 38 patients with aggressive T-cell lymphoma including both peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).
Results: Eighteen patients received EPOCH as first-line and 21 in the relapsed/refractory (R/R) setting. In 36 evaluable patients, the overall response rate (ORR) was 77% (95% CI, 61%-89%) with 19 (53%) patients achieving complete response (CR) (95% CI, 36%-69%). The ORR in first line and R/R settings were 80% (95% CI, 46%-94%) and 75% (95% CI, 52%-90%), respectively. Response rate was similar in African American versus Caucasian patients but was higher in CD30 negative versus positive patients. Most common grade 3/4 adverse events included cytopenias.
Conclusions: Overall, EPOCH was well tolerated with high response rates in first line and R/R setting.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia is a peer-reviewed monthly journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research of lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia. Clinical Lymphoma, Myeloma & Leukemia is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of lymphoma, myeloma, leukemia and related disorders including macroglobulinemia, amyloidosis, and plasma-cell dyscrasias. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to lymphoma, myeloma and leukemia. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
