[Clinical Characteristics and Outcome of 66 Cases of Mantle Cell Lymphomas].

OBJECTIVE

To analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of patients with mantle cell lymphoma(MCL).

METHODS

The clinical data of 66 MCL patients were collected from the Department of Hematology of Shanghai Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University Medical School from January 2000 to December 2014. The clinical characteristics, treatment efficiency and survival rate were analyzed retrospectively.

RESULTS

The sex ratio of male to female in these 66 MCL patients was 3.71:1, the nosopoietic median age was 59 years old, and most cases were diagnosed as MCL in Ann Arbor stage III-IV(90.9%). "R-HperCVAD" regimen had the highest CR-rate reached to 55.6%, and CR rate of "R-CHOP" reached to 44.4%. The total prospective 5-year overall survival and progress-free survival rates were 35.5%±11.5% and 8.8%±5.6%, respectively. Leukocyte count abnormality(>10×109/L or <4×109/L), B symptom, LDH level, bone marrow involvement, Ki-67 and high risk group of MIPI scores, and therapy combined with or without rituximab were the independent prognostic factors.

CONCLUSION

The prognosis of MCL patients is poor, and the incidence is higher in men. The extranodal sites of bone marrow and gastrointestinal tract are involved more easily. The treatment combined with rituximab can increase survival rate for these patients.
