Positron Emission Tomography-Based Assessment of Metabolic Tumor Volume Predicts Survival after Autologous Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Hodgkin Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) is curative for 60% of patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R HL). A more precise assessment of the depth of remission before AHCT may help to identify patients likely to benefit from AHCT. We aimed to determine whether positron emission tomography (PET)-based quantitative parameters of total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV), total lesion glycolysis (TLG), and maximal standardized uptake volume (SUVmax) measured before AHCT predict progression-free survival (PFS) after transplant. Pretransplant PET/computed tomography images of 96 consecutive patients with R/R HL were analyzed. Median TMTV, TLG, and SUVmax were 7.97?cm3 (range, 1.3 to 102.1), 23.7 (range, 4.0 to 813.1), and 5.23 (range, 2.7 to 23.2). Two-year PFS in patients with high TMTV (TMTVhigh; more than median; n?=?17) was only 12% (95% CI, 1% to 38%) compared with 53% (95% CI, 28% to 73%; P?=?.05) in patients with TMTVlow (lower or equal to median; n?=?17) and 63% (95% CI, 50% to 74%) in 61 patients with no metabolically active tumor (TMTV0; P?>?.01). In concordance, high TLG (>19) and SUVmax (>4.9) predicted inferior 2-year PFS. In multivariate analysis patients with TMTVhigh had a 3.5-fold higher risk of treatment failure compared with TMTV0/TMTVlow (HR, 3.49; 95% CI, 1.75 to 6.93; P?

Project description:PurposePatients with bulky stage I/II classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) are typically treated with chemotherapy followed by radiation. Late effects associated with radiotherapy include increased risk of second cancer and cardiovascular disease. We tested a positron emission tomography (PET)-adapted approach in patients with bulky, early-stage cHL, omitting radiotherapy in patients with interim PET-negative (PET-) disease and intensifying treatment in patients with PET-positive (PET+) disease.MethodsEligible patients with bulky disease (mass > 10 cm or 1/3 the maximum intrathoracic diameter on chest x-ray) received two cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) followed by interim fluorodeoxyglucose PET (PET2). Patients with PET2-, defined as 1-3 on the 5-point scale, received four additional cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine. Patients with PET2+ received four cycles of escalated bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone followed by 30.6 Gy involved-field radiation.ResultsOf 94 evaluable patients, 53% were female with median age 30 years (range, 18-58 years). Eight-five (90%) had stage II disease, including 48 (51%) with stage IIB/IIBE. Seventy-eight (78%) were PET2- and 21 (22%) were PET2+. The predominant toxicity was neutropenia, with 9% of patients developing febrile neutropenia and one developing sepsis. The primary end point of 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 93.1% in PET2- and 89.7% in PET2+ patients. Three-year overall survival was 98.6% and 94.4%, respectively. The estimated hazard ratio comparing PFS of patients with PET2+ and patients with PET2- was 1.03 (85% upper bound 2.38) and was significantly less than the null hypothesis of 4.1 (one-sided P = .04).ConclusionOur study of PET-adapted therapy in bulky stage I/II cHL met its primary goal and was associated with an excellent 3-year PFS rate of 92.3% in all patients, with the majority being spared radiotherapy and exposure to intensified chemotherapy.
