Abstract:
:In a pilot study of cyclical chemotherapy in patients with poor-prognosis non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), high-dose methotrexate (MTX) 1 g/m2 with folinic acid rescue was given as initial treatment and then between cycles of a single-arm CHOP combination administered every 4 weeks. Of 21 patients with previously untreated or minimally treated grade 2 (high-grade) histology stage II/III/IV NHL, 13 (62%) achieved complete remission (CR); the CR rate for stage III/IV patients was 56%. Of all 25 patients with grade 2 stage II/III/IV NHL, including previously treated patients, 16 (64%) achieved CR. The median follow-up of patients who completed treatment is currently 22 months and only 1 relapse has been recorded in the CR group. Only five of 24 grade 2 patients given the initial 'test' MTX failed to show any response, and eight patients achieved partial remission (PR) as a result of this single treatment. The response to MTX-CHOP in nine patients with grade 1 (low-grade) histology NHL was poor; only two achieved CR. These findings lend support to other data which indicate a useful role for MTX in the induction chemotherapy of advanced high-grade NHL, though the optimum dosage and drug sequence have yet to be determined.
