Patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have a very poor prognosis. However, they may achieve long-term survival by undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). The purpose of this study was to assess the outcome of all adult patients with DLBCL whose treatment included a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen for allogeneic SCT and whose data were reported in the French Society of Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy registry. Sixty-eight patients (median age: 48 years) were transplanted from October 1998 to January 2007. They had received a median of 2 regimens of therapy prior to allogeneic SCT, and 54 (79%) had already undergone SCT. Prior to transplantation, 32 patients (47%) were in complete remission (CR). For all patients but 1, conditioning regimens were based on fludarabine (Flu), which was combined with other chemotherapy drugs in 50 cases (74%) and with total body irradiation (TBI) in 17 (25%). For 56 patients (82%), the donor was an HLA-matched sibling, and peripheral blood was the most widely used source of stem cells (57 patients, 84%). With a median follow-up of 49 months, estimated 2-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and the cumulative incidence of relapse were 49%, 44%, and 41%, respectively. The 1-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was 23%. According to multivariate analysis, the patients in CR before transplantation had a significantly longer PFS and a lower CI of relapse than patients transplanted during partial remission or stable or progressive disease. These results suggest that reduced-intensity allergenic transplantation is an attractive therapeutic option for patients with high-risk DLBCL.
