Mantlecelllymphoma (MCL) compriseslessthan 10% of non-Hodgkin’slymphomacases. Majorindependent risk factorsareidentified
as the MCL International Prognostic Index (MIPI) and Ki-67 proliferationindex of tumor. Theaim of thisstudy is retrospectivelyevaluate MCL patientstreatedandfollowed-up in ourdepartment. MaterialsandMethods: Thisstudyincluded 27 MCL patientsmedicalrecords
of whomcould be reached. Thedatawasreviewedtofigureout MIPI score, bone marrowinvolvement, extranodalinvolvement, treatmentprotocols, treatmentresponse, relapsestatus, andtransplanthistory. Patientswerefollowed-upfor a meanduration of 64.4 (1-246)
months. Subsequenttothefirst-linetreatment, completeresponsewasachieved in 17 (63%) andpartialresponsewasachieved in 3 (11%)
patients, whereas 7 (26%) patientsexperienceddiseaseprogression. Median PFS followingfirst-linetreatmentwas 29 (3-120) months.
Based on theclassificationby MIPI scoring, low-risk patients had significantlylongermediansurvivalthanthat of high-risk patients (194
monthsvs 126 months, p=0.04), andthepatients at moderate-risk had significantlylonger PFS comparedtohigh-risk patients (41month
vs 3 months, p=0.025). Medianage, stage III-IV, andshortduration of PFS in patientswithhigh MIPI scorewereourfindings in parallelwithavailableliterature. R-hyper-CVAD/MTX-AraCwasmostlypreferredfirst-linetreatment at ourcenterwith a shortermedian PFS
comparedtoliterature. Giventheexpandinguse of target-driventherapiesfor MCL, webelieveourresultsarenoteworthy in comparingsuchtherapieswithpre-existingtherapies.
