[Survival Analysis of 148 Patients with Primary Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma].

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the clinical outcome of the patients with primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma（DLBCL）.

METHODS

Clinical data of 148 patients with DLBCL in our hospital and cancer hospital from March 2006 to April 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate progression-free survival（PFS）and overall survival（OS）.

RESULTS

5-year OS and PFS rates were 85% and 69%，respectively. The survival analysis showed that 5-year OS rate of R-CHOP group was significantly higher than that of CHOP alone group（89% vs. 70%，P<0.05）. In univariate analysis，several clinical factors，such as older age（>60 years），poor ECOG score（≥2），advanced stage（Ⅲ-Ⅳ），higher IPI score（≥3），CHOP alone and absence of radiotherapy related with poor survival rate. Furthermore，multivariate analysis showed that age>60 year significantly related with the worse OS.

CONCLUSION

Age >60 year is an important independent prognostic factor to predict worse OS or PFS.
