Résumé

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) may have a curative potential due to the graft versus lymphoma effect. In this study, we aimed to compare transplant outcomes between refractory-T-NHL (ref-NHL) and Chemosensitive-T-NHL (CS-T-NHL). We retrospectively reviewed the records of 26 ref-NHL and 29 CS-T-NHL consecutive patients who underwent allo-SCT at our center and compared the transplant outcomes between the groups. All patients were heavily pretreated with 27% of patients relapsing post-auto-SCT and two patients in the ref-T-NHL post-allo-SCT. Patients were transplanted mainly from unrelated donors. There were no differences in leucocytes and platelet engraftment between the two groups. At 3 years, the relapse incidence was 34% in Ref-TNHL and 19% in CS-TNHL (p = .33), with non-relapse mortality rates of 28% and 22%, respectively (p = .52). Female patients and those with a previous auto-SCT had lower relapse incidence (p = .045, p = .003). The 3-year overall survival was 39% in Ref-TNHL and 56% in CS-TNHL (p = .15). Trends for improved progression-free survival (PFS) and graft-versus-host disease relapse-free survival (GRFS) were observed in the CS-TNHL group (PFS: 60% vs. 30%, p = .075; GRFS: 38% vs. 21%, p = .1). Acknowledging the retrospective nature of our study, our results indicate that allo-SCT has a curative potential in patients with T-NHL even in refractory status.
