Background The goal was to determine whether the addition of temozolomide (TMZ) to the standard treatment of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) and whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) for primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) improves survival. Methods An open-label, randomized, phase III trial was conducted in Japan, enrolling immunocompetent patients aged 20–70 years with histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed PCNSL. After administration of HD-MTX, patients were randomly assigned to receive WBRT (30 Gy) ± 10 Gy boost (arm A) or WBRT ± boost with concomitant and maintenance TMZ for 2 years (arm B). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Results Between September 29, 2014 and October 15, 2018, 134 patients were enrolled, of whom 122 were randomly assigned and analyzed. At the planned interim analysis, 2-year OS was 86.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 72.5–94.0%) in arm A and 71.4% (56.0–82.2%) in arm B. The hazard ratio was 2.18 (95% CI: 0.95–4.98), with the predicted probability of showing the superiority of arm B at the final analysis estimated to be 1.3%. The study was terminated early due to futility. O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation status was measured in 115 tumors, and it was neither prognostic nor predictive of TMZ response. Conclusions This study failed to demonstrate the benefit of concomitant and maintenance TMZ in newly diagnosed PCNSL. |
