On Saturday 1 December 2018, Oral Session 623 took place at the 60th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, San Diego, CA. During that session, Abstract #146 with the results from the 8-year follow-up of the GALGB 50403 (Alliance) trial were presented by Lawrence Kaplan from the Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center, San Francisco, CA, USA.
GALGB 50403 (Alliance) was a phase II trial that investigated the efficacy and safety of adding post-transplant bortezomib consolidation (BC) or bortezomib maintenance (BM) in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients. The primary analysis of the trial has previously reported a five-year progression-free survival (PFS) of 70% and 69% for BM and BC, respectively. Here the results from the 8-year follow-up of this trial were presented.
