OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to document the outcomes and toxicity of a novel multimodality treatment protocol for feline gastrointestinal intermediate- or large-cell lymphoma (FGL) in which cats were treated at 21-day intervals.
METHODS: This was a prospective, single-arm study. Twelve client-owned cats with cytologically diagnosed FGL were treated with a combination of abdominal cavity radiation therapy (RT; 8 Gy total dose administered in two 4 Gy fractions, 21 days apart), lomustine chemotherapy (approximately 40 mg/m2, administered orally at 21-day intervals for four treatments), prednisolone (5 mg PO q24h) and cobalamin (250 µg/week SC).
RESULTS: Three cats were euthanized prior to the second treatment and it was difficult to discern treatment-associated toxicity from progressive disease. Four of the remaining cats developed cytopenias, resulting in 7-14-day lomustine treatment delays and/or dose reductions. Six cats had a partial response to treatment and three had stable disease based on ultrasound at day 21 (50% overall response rate). Three of these six cats completed the study and lived >240 days; one died of refractory diabetes mellitus with no clinical evidence of FGL, and the other two died as a result of FGL. The median overall survival time was 101 days (95% confidence interval [CI] 9-240). The median progression-free survival time was 77 days (95% CI 8-212). Necropsies were performed in eight cats, which revealed multifocal lymphoma throughout the gastrointestinal tract and other organs.
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Oncological outcomes reported herein are comparable to those achieved with multiagent injectable chemotherapy (eg, CHOP). Treatment was seemingly well tolerated in most cats and was relatively cost-effective. It is therefore plausible that improved disease control may be achievable through continued optimization and intensification of the combinatorial chemoradiotherapy protocol.
