Role of [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography in early and late therapy assessment of patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma treated with bleomycin, etoposide, adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine and prednisone
Original language description
The prognostic value of positron emission tomography (PET) in early therapy response assessment, after completion of chemotherapy and 3 months after the end of treatment in advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) remains to be defined. We report the results of 69patients with first presentation of advanced HL. [18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG)-PET scan was performed after four cycles (PET-4), on completion of chemotherapy after 6/8 cycles (PET-6/8) and 3 months after the completion of chemotherapy (PET 3-months). Median follow-up was 55 months. The negative predictive value (NPV) for PET-4, PET-6/8 and PET 3-months was 98%, 95% and 97%, respectively. The 4-year progression-free survival (PFS) for PET-4 negative (n = 51) and PET-4 positive (n = 18) patientswas 96% and 78%, respectively (p = 0.016). The 4-year PFS for PET-6/8 negative (n = 59) and PET-6/8 positive (n = 9) patients was 95% and 78%, respectively (p = 0.046). Patients with a large mediastinal mass constituted nearly all of the
