Popis: Background. OncoBOS is a prospective, non-interventional study conducted in France to describe modalities of treatment with Binocrit® in routine clinical practice setting, for the correction of hemoglobin (Hb) in patients with CIA receiving chemotherapy (CT) for solid tumors, lymphoma or myeloma. This analysis focuses on patients with lymphoid malignancies (LM). Patients & methods. Patient ≥18 years old with LM, CIA and eligible for treatment with Binocrit® were included. This analysis reports patients characteristics along with anemia-related data such as Hb outcomes, Binocrit® treatment characteristics and concomitant treatments received, at baseline, 3-4 weeks and 12 (± 1) weeks later. Factors associated with a Hb increase ≥2 g/dL in patients with LM were analyzed by means of univariate and multivariate analyses. Results. 563 evaluable patients (302 males (53.6%), mean age 67.9 (SD 14.0) years were recruited from 34 sites, between September 2011 and July 2014. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) (281 patients; 49.9%) and multiple myeloma (165 patients; 29.3%) were most prevalent. Among patients with NHL, 46.0% had a diffuse large B cell lymphoma, 11.5% a follicular lymphoma and 11.1% a mantle cell lymphoma. 62.5% of patients with NHL had a stage IV disease and bone marrow was involved by NHL in 45.2% of patients. A vast majority of patients (84.3%) suffering from multiple myeloma had a Durie-Salmon stage III myeloma. Mean baseline Hb was 9.5 (SD 1.0) g/dL, which increased by an average of 0.9 (SD 1.4) g/dL and 1.9 (SD 1.7) g/dL after 1 and 3 months, respectively. A Hb increase ≥1 g/dL was achieved by 51.3% of patients after 3-4 weeks of treatment with Binocrit®. About half of patients (53.0%) achieved a Hb increase ≥2 g/dL at week 12 (± 1). Patients received a mean Binocrit® dose of 31252.4 ± (SD 5815.9; median: 30000) UI once-weekly, over an average time span of 10.8 (SD 3.2; median: 13) weeks. Iron status (serum ferritin and transferrin saturation coefficient) was assessed in 29.1% of subjects at baseline. In total, 2.8% and 1.4% of patients concomitantly received oral or intravenous iron, respectively, during the follow-up period. 12.1% and 11.6% of patients received a folate supplementation at week 3-4 and 12, respectively. Moreover, 16.2% and 15.0% of patients received red blood cells transfusion over the 3-4 first weeks, and over the next 2 months, respectively. Over the treatment period, no treatment‐related adverse reaction was recorded. Factors negatively/positively associated with a Hb increase ≥2 g/dL (p Conclusions. This study indicates that in real-life clinical conditions Binocrit® increases effectively Hb, without any adverse drug reaction, in anemic patients with lymphoid malignancies, whatever chemotherapy received. The effect of treatment with Binocrit® is rapid, with mean hemoglobin increase of 0.9 (SD1.4) g/dL seen as early as 3 or 4 weeks following the start of therapy.
