Résumé
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the short-term efficacy, overall survival (OS), and safety in newly diagnosed extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) patients with L-asparaginase based regimens or CHOP regimen in combination with radiotherapy as first-line treatment.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Of the total 181 patients diagnosed by imaging and pathology, 69 patients received CHOP regimen and 112 patients received L-asparaginase based regimens. All the patients received radical radiotherapy(RT)after 6 cycles of chemotherapy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The overall response rates of L-asparaginase-based group and CHOP group were 90.2% and 72.5%, respectively (P=0.002). The 1, 2, 5-year OS and progression-free survival (PFS) in L-asparaginase-based group were 96.0%, 88.3%, 65.1% and 94.2%, 79.8%, 50.0%, respectively. The 1, 2, 5-year OS and PFS in CHOP group were 82.6%, 61.9%, 28.4% and 63.8%, 44.0%, 21.0% (P=0.000).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Compared with CHOP regimen, L-asparaginase-based chemotherapy is more effective and safe for newly diagnosed nasal-type ENKTL.</p>
