We previously demonstrated that yttrium-90 (Y-90) ibritumomab tiuxetan (Zevalin) radioimmunotherapy (RIT) was safe and effective for relapsed or refractory CD20(+), B-cell, non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We now provide long-term follow-up data in responding patients based on International Workshop Response Criteria. Complete (CR), CR unconfirmed (CRu), and partial response (PR) rates were 29%, 22%, and 22%, respectively (overall response rate 73%, 51% in CR/CRu). Mean time to progression (TTP) and duration of response (DR) in responders were 12.6 months and 11.7 months, respectively. At the maximum tolerated dose (0.4 mCi/kg [14.8 MBq/kg]), TTP and DR in complete responders (CR/CRu) were 28.3 and 27.5 months, respectively. Nine patients (24% of responding patients) had a TTP of more than 3 years. Long-term responders (> 5 years) have been identified. Ibritumomab tiuxetan produces durable responses in patients with indolent and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
