Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Relapsed Follicular Lymphoma After Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation at Rituximab Era

September 7, 2018 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Introduction High dose chemotherapy followed by Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) is a therapeutic option in follicular Lymphoma after first line treatment failure. The clinical characteristics and outcome of FL patients who relapsed after HDT+ASCT and therapeutic management in the rituximab era are not well known and may represent a difficult challenge.

Patients and Methods: The investigators conducted a retrospective analysis of FL patients who relapsed after HDT+ASCT in four French centers treated between 2000 and 2014. Clinical records were reviewed for clinical characteristics and treatment strategy at relapse. The investigators aimed to identify prognostic factors related to patient's outcome.
