Validation of POD24 as a robust early clinical indicator of poor survival in mantle cell lymphoma from 1280 patients on clinical trials, a LYSA study.

ABSTRACT: In mantle cell lymphoma, early progression of disease has been associated with short overall survival. The impact of clinical, pathological, and treatment strategies on the risk of early relapse has not been assessed in a large cohort of patients. We performed a pooled analysis of patients recruited in France from six randomized first-line MCL trials. Among 1386 treated MCL patients, 1280 were evaluable for POD24 status: 299 (23.4%) with a POD24 event and 981 (76.6%) without. Patients with a POD24 event had a median OS of 9.3 months (95% CI 8.4-11.8) versus not reached (95% CI 97.8-NR) for those without POD24 events. The median post-relapse OS of patients with a late relapse was also significantly longer at 49.4 months (HR = 0.39; 95% CI 0.31-0.48; P < 0.001) as compared to POD24 patients.
