Treatment Outcomes and Survival Patterns of Asian Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is widely considered an incurable malignancy even with current therapies and relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease to primary treatment remains common. With improved treatment guidelines and the advent of novel agents, patients are increasingly being treated with more lines of regimens. However, outcomes after each line of treatment remain poorly characterized, especially in the Asian population. In this paper, we described the survival outcomes in a group of R/R MCL patients. Methods: We retrospectively studied 35 patients with R/R MCL between 1998 and 2020 at the National Cancer Centre Singapore. Patients were followed longitudinally throughout their disease course. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were determined by the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: The median OS and PFS from diagnosis were 105 and 40 months, respectively. After first relapse, the median OS and PFS were 52 and 19 months, post-second relapse 32 and 8 months, and post-third relapse 12 and 6 months, respectively. Patients older than 65 years at first relapse had shorter survival (median OS: 22 vs. 55 months, P = 0.0417; median PFS: 9 vs. 29 months, P = 0.001). Early treatment failure after first line therapy was also associated with worse survival outcomes (median OS: 13 vs. 55 months, P < 0.001; median PFS: 9 vs. 26 months, P < 0.001). Conclusion: With each relapse, survival outcomes for patients with MCL are worse. Novel treatment and contemporary outcomes of R/R MCL are encouraging and support the need for continued research in this area.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
