Özet
The optimal choice of salvage therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma or Hodgkin lymphoma remains controversial. In this study, we aimed to share our experience in relapsed/refractory lymphoma patients who received GDP/R-GDP as salvage chemotherapy in our center. Data of 47 relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients who received GDP or R-GDP as salvage chemotherapy in our center between July 2014 and October 2017 were retrospectively evaluated. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma patients were divided into two groups as primary refractory and relapsed. The one-year overall survival was 100% (for relapsed) and 36.9% (for refractory) in the non-Hodgkin lymphoma groups, and 82.5% (for relapsed) and 80% (for refractory) in the Hodgkin lymphoma group. The one-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 72.7% (for relapsed) and 38.5% (for refractory) in patients with NHL, and 41% (for relapsed) and 18.2% (for refractory) in patients with HL. GDP/R-GDP seems to be a well-tolerated out-patient salvage regimen for relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma. Although proven efficacy, negative toxicity profile, and ease of administration, the application of gemcitabine-based therapy for patients with primary refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma and Hodgkin lymphoma provided limited success.
