PURPOSE To address the question of short-term and long-term advantages of peripheral-blood stem-cell transplantation (PBSCT) over autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT), we have reviewed the data of 3,214 patients with lymphoma, 2,859 undergoing ABMT, and 355 undergoing PBSCT. PATIENTS AND METHODS Analysis of prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) was conducted separately for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) (N = 1,915) and Hodgkin's disease (HD) (N = 1,299). In multivariate analysis, the relevant factors were status at transplant for NHL and sex, size of largest mass at transplant, status at transplant, and conditioning regimen for HD. The pair analysis was carried out by matching NHL and HD patients separately by their prognostic factors. Additionally, NHL patients were matched for histology, whereas both HD and NHL patients were matched for date of transplant. With this method, 454 patients were matched in the NHL group and 256 were matched in the HD group. RESULTS The overall survival (OS) and PFS unexpectedy were better for ABMT versus PBSCT patients in the HD group (OS, 65.3% at 4 years for ABMT v 52.7% for PBSCT; P = .0198). There was no difference in OS or PFS in the NHL group (OS, 56.6% at 4 years for ABMT v 52.7% for PBSCT; P = .4148). The overall relapse or progression rate at 4 years for NHL was 42% after ABMT and 49.2% after PBSCT (P = .1220); for HD, it was 40% and 58.6%, respectively (P = .0164). Transplant-related mortality was lower, but not significantly, with PBSCT: 7.0% for ABMT versus 3.5% for PBSCT in NHL (P = .1356) and 7% for ABMT versus 4.7% for PBSCT in HD (P = .6056). Hematologic recovery occurred faster significantly with PBSCT irrespective of disease. CONCLUSION This study confirms the advantage of PBSCT in terms of hematopoietic reconstitution, but it fails to show any superiority in the long term. Poorer results for both progression free and overall survival observed in HD patients who are receiving PBSCT are unexplained and should be confirmed with randomized studies.

Purpose To analyze the long-term outcome in terms of nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) in patients with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) treated with allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (alloSCT). Patients and Methods Forty-five patients with AITL who had undergone an alloSCT between January 1998 and December 2005 and were registered in the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation database were analyzed. Median age was 48 years (range, 23 to 68 years), 34 patients had received ≥ two lines of chemotherapy before alloSCT, and 11 patients had experienced treatment failure with a prior autologous stem-cell transplantation. Twenty-five patients underwent a myeloablative alloSCT, and 20 underwent a reduced-intensity alloSCT. Donors were HLA-identical siblings in 26 patients. Twenty-seven patients were allografted in chemotherapy-sensitive disease, and 18 were allografted in refractory disease. Results The cumulative incidence of NRM was 18%, 22%, and 25% at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. Patients with poor performance status had a significantly higher NRM (P = .01). RR was estimated as 16% and 20% at 2 and 3 years, respectively, and was lower in patients developing chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). PFS and OS rates were 62% and 53% and 66% and 64% at 1 and 3 years, respectively, and were significantly better in chemotherapy-sensitive patients. Conclusion AlloSCT represents a valid therapeutic option for patients with AITL. Both the lower RR after transplantation as well as the decreased RR in patients developing cGVHD after the alloSCT suggests the existence of a clinically relevant graft-versus-lymphoma effect.
