چکیده
The International Prognostic Index (IPI) has been the basis for determining prognosis in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) for the past 20 years. The utility of the IPI must be reassessed in the era of immunochemotherapy. Seven risk factors at diagnosis were identified, and a maximum of 7 points were assigned to each patient. Four risk groups were created: low (0-1), low-intermediate (2-3), high-intermediate (4), and high (5-7). Using MYC and BCL-2 clinical data from the Drum Tower Hospital collected during the rituximab era, we performed a retrospective analysis of patients with DLBCL treated with R-CHOP and built an biological markers adjusted IPI with the goal of improving risk stratification.Clinical features from 60 adults with de novo DLBCL diagnosed from 2008-2013 were assessed for their prognostic significance. The IPI remains predictive, but it cannot identify the high-risk subgroup. Compared with the IPI, the MYC and BCL-2 adjusted-IPI (A-IPI) better discriminated patients in the high-risk subgroup (4-year overall survival [OS]: 33.3%) than did the IPI (4 year OS: 48.0%). In the era of R-CHOP treatment, MYC and BCL-2 adjusted-IPI is more powerful than the IPI for helping guide treatment planning and interpretation of clinical trials.

The revised International Prognostic Index (R-IPI) is a better predictor of outcome than the standard IPI for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with R-CHOP.
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a heterogeneous entity, with patients exhibiting a wide range of outcomes. The addition of rituximab to CHOP chemotherapy (R-CHOP)has led to a marked improvement in survival and has called into question the significance of previously recognized prognostic markers. Since randomized controlled trials of R-CHOP in DLBCL have included select subgroups of pat...

متن کاملReassessment of the prognostic value of the International Prognostic Index and the revised International Prognostic Index in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: A multicentre study
The International Prognostic Index (IPI) is a widely accepted model that is used to predict the prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who are treated using chemotherapy. However, the prognostic value of the IPI has been a focal point of debate in the immunochemotherapy era. The aim of this study was to reassess the value of the IPI and revised IPI (R-IPI) in a Chinese...
متن کاملAssessment of CD37 B-cell antigen and cell of origin significantly improves risk prediction in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
CD37 (tetraspanin TSPAN26) is a B-cell surface antigen widely expressed on mature B cells. CD37 is involved in immune regulation and tumor suppression but its function has not been fully elucidated. We assessed CD37 expression in de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and investigated its clinical and biologic significance in 773 patients treated with rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, do...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone chemotherapy (R-CHOP) has improved survival in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and weakened the prognostic power of the international prognostic index (IPI). We evaluated the efficacy of the IPI and revised IPI (R-IPI) in patients with DLBCL who were treated with R-CHOP, focusing on ext...
