Radiotherapy (WBRT) or Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation (ASCT) for Primary CNS Lymphoma in Patients 60 Years of Age and Younger: Long-Term Results of the Intergroup Anocef-Goelams Randomized Phase II Precis Study
Abstract:Introduction: We previously reported the results of the PRECIS trial with a median follow-up of 33 months. Both whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ACST) were effective according to the predetermined threshold. However, more relapses occurred in the WBRT arm. The 2-year event-free survival (EFS) from consolidation (relapse or death defined as event) were 69% (95% CI, 57% to 83%) and 87% (95% CI, 77% to 98%) after WBRT and ASCT, respectively (p = 0.03). Overall survival (OS… Show more
