maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), more frequent constitutional symptoms, poorer performance status (PS), lower hemoglobin and platelets, and higher lactate dehydrogenase andb-2-microglobulin. An SUVmax ‡10 strongly correlatedwithmortality (overall survival [OS], 56.7 vs 6.9 months in patients with SUVmax <10 vs ‡10). Survival of patientswithRS andHACwas similar among patientswith SUVmax<10 or‡10. SUVmax ‡10, PS ‡2, bulky disease, and age ‡65 were independently associated with shorter OS. In

CLINICAL TRIALS AND OBSERVATIONS Prognostic nomogram and index for overall survival in previously untreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia
The clinical course for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia is extremely heterogeneous. The Rai and Binet staging systems have been used to risk-stratify patients; most patients present with early-stage disease. We evaluated a group of previously untreated patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) at initial presentation to University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center to ident...
متن کاملCLINICAL OBSERVATIONS, INTERVENTIONS, AND THERAPEUTIC TRIALS Whole-Body Positron Emission Tomography Using 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose for Posttreatment Evaluation in Hodgkin’s Disease and Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma Has Higher Diagnostic and Prognostic Value Than Classical Computed Tomography Scan Imaging
A residual mass after treatment of lymphoma is a clinical challenge, because it may represent vital tumor as well as tissue fibrosis. Metabolic imaging by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) offers the advantage of functional tissue characterization that is largely independent of morphologic criteria. We compared 18F-FDG PET to computed tomography (CT) in the pos...
متن کاملCLINICAL TRIALS AND OBSERVATIONS FDG-PET after two cycles of chemotherapy predicts treatment failure and progression-free survival in Hodgkin lymphoma
Risk-adapted lymphoma treatment requires early and accurate assessment of prognosis. This investigation prospectively assessed the value of positron emission tomography with 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-Dglucose (FDG-PET) after two cycles of chemotherapy for prediction of progressionfree survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). Seventy-seven consecutive, newly diagnosed patie...
متن کاملCLINICAL TRIALS AND OBSERVATIONS Early FDG-PET assessment in combination with clinical risk scores determines prognosis in recurring lymphoma
This study was set up to demonstrate whether prognostic classification based on the secondary age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (sAA-IPI) for recurring aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) or the prognostic score for recurring Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) can be improved by including the midtreatment results of fluorine-18-fluorodeoxy-glucose–positron emission tomography (FDG-PET). Clinical...
