Abstract We report nine children with relapsed (n = 8) or high-risk (n = 1) peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) who underwent autologous (n = 6) or allogeneic (n = 3) bone marrow transplantation (BMT). These children received transplants as part of a prospective phase I/II study of thioTEPA (TT) and total body irradiation (TBI) with escalating doses of VP-16. The median age of these patients at time of BMT was 6.5 years (range 2.5 years to 14 years). Three were transplanted with active disease after failing salvage chemotherapy. Of the other six, one was transplanted in first complete remission (CR) and five in second or subsequent CR. Of these nine patients, eight are free of disease a median of 25 months after BMT (range, 6 to 48 months), with an estimated 2-year relapse-free survival (RFS) of 89%. Six of these eight patients have been followed for 12 or more months after BMT, and in each their current remission exceeds their longest previous remission duration. The toxicity of the TT/TBI +/- VP-16 regimens was significant but manageable, predominantly consisting of severe mucositis. For a comparison, we reviewed retrospective data on the six additional children and adolescents with PTCL who underwent BMT during the 3-year period preceding this phase I/II study. The median age at BMT of these six patients was 19 years (range 15.5 years to 20 years). These patients were prepared for BMT with a variety of other regimens. One had no response to BMT and the other five relapsed at 1.5 to 5 months after BMT (median, 3 months) with an RFS of 0%. Our data suggest that thioTEPA plus TBI, with or without VP-16, is an effective preparative regimen for BMT for young patients with relapsed or high-stage PTCL and leads to prolonged RFS.

e19538 Background: Peripheral T-cell lymphoma is a rare entitydisease, compromising 10% of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma worldwide and 5% of all lymphoid neoplasms in the United States. The long-term survival of conventional therapies has led the exploration of alternatives. High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, has been explored in recent years with little experiences. We are reporting our single-institute data in this population. Methods: A retrospective analysis on patients with diagnosis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma receiving autologous stem cell transplant was conducted (January 1997 to July 2008). The patients were stratified according to their International Prognostic Index (IPI), disease status at the time of transplant and histology type. Results: Twenty-nine subjects were identified, with a median age of 51; 13 patients had Anaplastic T cell, 18 patient had PTCL-nos, and 6 patients with angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma. Seventeen patients (58.62%) presented with an aa IPI score greater than 2.4 patients were in complete remission, 15 at first relapse, 4 in greater than 1 episode, and 6 with refractory disease at the time of transplantion.Kaplan Meier overall survival (OS) 72 and relapse free survival (RFS) was 62 at 1 year respectively. A multivariate analysis and new risk stratification based on the IPI score system and disease status at time of transplant were employed. We found that the lower risk category demonstrated a higher likelihood of longer survival HR 3.4. However, such outcome was not statistically significant (p = 0.1360). Conclusions: The status at time of transplant with new methods for evaluation of minimal residual disease may help in assessing outcome. Larger prospective studies investigating innovative regimens is warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
