The GCB and ABC subtypes showed significant differences in overall and event-free survival, with the GCB type (independent of IPI) having significantly better outcome (5-year overall survival 60% vs 35% for the ABC type). After 7 years of follow-up, the probability of event-free survival and overall survival increased 2-fold in the double-transplant group compared with the single-transplant group: 42% vs 21%, wrote Michel Attal, MD of the Hopital Purpan in Toulouse and colleagues in the December 25 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. Secondary endpoints included overall survival, event-free survival, duration of response, response rate and complete response. |
