Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is generally characterized by poor prognosis after conventional chemotherapy compared with aggressive B-cell lymphoma. To elucidate the role of high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with auto-SCT, we retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 39 patients with PTCL who received HDCT and auto-SCT between 1990 and 2005. Eleven patients were histologically typed as angioimmunoblastic, nine as anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, seven as natural killer/T-cell lymphoma and twelve as PTCL unspecified. Clinical conditions at transplantation were complete response (CR) in 27 patients and non-CR in 12 patients. Thirty-two patients received a pre-transplant conditioning regimen (MCEC) comprising ranimustine, carboplatin, etoposide and CY, and seven did other TBI-based regimens. Rapid engraftment was obtained in all cases, and transplant-related death was not seen. An estimated 5-year OS was 62.1% with a median follow-up of 78 months. The 5-year OS was significantly higher in patients transplanted during complete response than in those during other disease status (71.4% vs 27.3%, P=0.046). HDCT supported by auto-SCT may therefore be effective as consolidation in CR for PTCL treatment.
