“…A recent systematic review evaluating 32 studies involving 1,408 patients with low-grade MALT lymphoma showed the presence of H pylori infection in 88.2% of cases and complete remission of the tumor just by eradicating the bacteria in over 75% of cases (214) . A recent consensus meeting acknowledges H pylori eradication to be a first line treatment for gastric MALT lymphoma (177) .…”

“…Biopsy specimens after H. pylori eradication were also evaluated by pathologists in each the hospital, while relapsed cases and suspicious cases were reviewed by the central pathologist (T.Y.). Histopathological evaluation after treatment was carried out using the Groupe d'Etude des Lymphomes de l'Adulte (GELA) histological grading system, with classification as either complete histological response (ChR), probable minimal residual disease (pMRD), responding residual disease (rRD) or no change (NC)8, 16 or Wotherspoon's histological score (0‐5) 3. Complete remission (CR) of lymphoma was defined as ChR or pMRD in the GELA system, or grades 0 or 1 in Wotherspoon's score, with non‐CR defined as any other category.…”

“…36 MALT lymphomas are highly sensitive to radiation, which may be curative in localised stage I E and II1 E disease. Different types of chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy have been suggested but efficacy and comparison data are limited and no standard chemotherapy has been defined so far.…”
