10043 Background: Survival rates in non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) have increased significantly in the last decades. This study aims to assess the demographic data and treatment results of children with nonlymphoblastic NHL treated in a single institution. Methods: 106 children (74 male, 32 female), treated in Istanbul University, Oncology Institute, between 9/1989-12/2012 were evaluated retrospectively. Nonlymphoblastic NHL received COMP until 1991. After then, all received BFM protocols. They received BFM 90 protocol with 5 g/m2 methotrexate (MTX) until 1995 and modified BFM protocol with 1 g/m2 MTX thereafter. Results:The median age was 8(2-19) years. Histopathologic subtypes: 81 Burkitt, 25 large cell. The primary location was abdomen in 51, mediastinum 4, head/neck 31, 20 other (bone 8, breast 2, ovaries 2, skin 2, paravertebral 2, other 4). Bone marrow was involved in 10, CNS in 2. 40 patients had stage I+II, 44 stage III, and 22 stage IV disease. 23 patients died, 7 due to toxicity, 2 with second malignancies (AML,GBM). 10 year survival and EFS in the whole group was 76 and 76 % respectively. 10 year survival was 100, 94.3, 71.3 and 50% in stage I, II, III, and IV. In advanced stage nonlymphoblastic NHL patients, 10 year survival was significantly higher in patients receiving BFM regimen with 1 g/m2 MTX, than in ones receiving COMP or BFM protocol with 5 g/m2 MTX (10 year S, 81%, 46.7%, 44.4% respectively). These results were also compared with 47 advanced stage nonlymphoblastic NHL patients treated with 5 g/m2 BFM protocol in another center in the same university in the same time period (5 year S 78 %). Conclusions: Survival rates in the whole group are in parallel with advances attained in the world in NHL. The significantly higher survival rates achieved in patients with advanced stage non-lymphoblastic patients receiving modified BFM (1g/m2MTX) may be due to the decreased toxicity seen in this group and to the advances in supportive care in the last decade. In another major center in the same university that used the same protocol with 5 g/m2 MTX in the same time period, similar survival rates suggest that 1 g/m2 MTX which is cheaper and less toxic is also as effective as 5 gr/m2 in these patients.
