On 10 January 2019, Zeina Al-Mansour from the Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center, Maywood, IL, USA, and colleagues, published in Leukemia & Lymphoma a retrospective analysis of aggressive T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL) patient data from the SWOG S9704 phase II trial.
In the SWOG S9704, phase II trial (NCT00004031), T-NHL patients received initially five cycles of either cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) or rituximab plus CHOP (R-CHOP). Patients who responded to the initial treatment were randomized to either three additional cycles of chemotherapy or one cycle, followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with carmustine or total body irradiation (TBI). The aim of this secondary analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of consolidative ASCT after first remission in this aggressive T-NHL patient population.
