RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PG-DLBCL) and to evaluate the staging system and treatment modality of PG-DLBCL.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinicopathological data of 69 patients with PG-DLBCL were retrospectively analyzed. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were the primary endpoints.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The EFS rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 83.8%, 71.1%, and 69.0%, respectively, with a mean EFS of 91.3 months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 91.3%, 80.3%, and 72.4%, respectively, with a mean OS of 98.8 months. Univariate analysis revealed that either EFS or OS was significantly prolonged by the following factors (P < 0.05): modified Ann Arbor stage I(E) or II(E1) disease; normal lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level; normal hemoglobin level; normal albumin level; International Prognostic Index (IPI) of 0 or 1; tumor size < 5 cm; and less depth of invasion. While gender, age, B symptoms at presentation, performance status and treatment modality were not significantly associated with the prognosis (P > 0.05). Cox regression model revealed that only modified Ann Arbor stage and albumin level were independent prognostic factors for EFS and OS.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The most accurate staging system and the exact role of different therapeutic options for PG-DLBCL are still debated. Further randomized prospective studies with a large number of patients are still needed to establish an optimal management for this disease.</p>

Objective To construct a new conditionally replicative adenovirus (CRAds) targeting carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) positive colorectal cancer cells. Methods The DNA fragment of the CEA gene promoter was amplified through PCR and cloned into the vector carrying fusion reporter gene EGFP-Luc to construct expression plasmid pCEA-EGFPLuc. The constructed plasmid pCEA-EGFPLuc was transfected into CEA positive and negative cells by liposome. The activity of CEA gene promoter was evaluated by detecting the expression of EGFP and luciferase activity. The conditionally replicative adenovirus Ad.CEA-E1A/CMV-TK carrying suicide gene HSVtk was constructed, in which the E1A gene was controlled under CEA promoter. CEA positive(Lovo and SW620)and negative tumor cells(HeLa) were infected with Ad.CEA-E1A/ CMV-TK. The selective cytotoxicity of Ad.CEA-E1A/CMV-TK and the synergistic effect of the virus with GCV in CEA positive tumor cells were evaluated by the expression of E1A, cytopathic effect and cell survival rate. Results CEA promoter possesses a good specificity as well as high activity. The expression of E1A only presented in CEA positive tumor cells. After infection with Ad. CEA-E1A/CMV-TK, the cell survival rates of Lovo and SW620 were (36.72±2.49)% and (39.82±4.76)%, respectively, significantly lower than that of Hela[(87.44±2.76)%1 (P<0.01). When combined with GCV, Ad.CEA-E1A/CMV-TK had better oncolytic effect on Lovo and SW620 cells, with cell survival rates of (17.26±3.65) % and (23.93±5.40) %, respectively, significantly lower than those without GCV[(36.72±2.49) % and (39.82±4.76) %, respectively] (P<0.01). Conclusion Ad. CEA-E1A/CMV-TK under the control of CEA promoter has selective cytotoxic effect on CEA positive colorectal cancer cells, and the effect can be enhanced when combined with GCV.
