Survival Outcomes of Patients with Mantle Cell Lymphoma: A Retrospective, 15-Year, Real-Life Study.

ABSTRACT: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) prognosis has significantly improved in recent years; however, the possible survival benefit of new treatment options should be evaluated outside of clinical trials. We investigated 73 consecutive MCL patients managed from 2006 to 2020. For younger patients <65 years old, the median PFS was 72 months and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year PFS of 73%, 62%, and 41%; median OS was not reached and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year OS of 88%, 82%, and 66%. For patients aged 75 years or older, the median PFS was 36 months and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year PFS of 52%, 37%, and 37%; median OS was not reached and we reported a 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year OS of 72%, 55%, and 55%. The median PFS was significantly reduced for patients treated between 2006 and 2010 compared to patients treated between 2011 and 2015 (p = 0.04). Interestingly, there was a trend towards improved OS for patients treated between 2016 and 2020 compared to between 2006 and 2010 and between 2011 and 2015 (5-year OS was 91%, 44%, and 33%). These findings could be due to the introduction of BR as a first-line regimen for elderly patients and to the introduction of ibrutinib as a second-line regimen.
