Popis: | Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) has become the primary modality for staging in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), whereas the role of staging bone marrow biopsy (BMB) has become less clear. In this analysis, we included 7,005 DLBCL patients in SEER-Medicare who received either PET-CT without BMB (PET-CT w/o BMB), CT with BMB (CT w/ BMB), or both PET-CT and BMB (PET-CT w/ BMB). The proportion of patients undergoing PET-CT increased across years of diagnosis, while the proportion undergoing CT or BMB decreased. In a fully adjusted Cox proportional hazards model, PET-CT w/ BMB was associated with a marginally superior OS compared to PET-CT w/o BMB. Notably, the association between PET-CT w/ BMB and OS was strongest in patients ≤70 years, but was not present when looking at individual stage of diagnosis. Overall, these data do not provide sufficient support to eliminate staging BMB in patients who undergo PET-CT. |
