Popis: We investigated the safety and efficacy profile of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) followed by gemcitabine, dexamethasone, cisplatin (GDP), plus chidamide in the first-line setting for intermediate- and high-risk early-stage extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKTCL).This was an open-label, randomized phase 2 trial performed at 2 centers in China. Patients were eligible if they were newly-diagnosed with intermediate- and high-risk early-stage ENKTCL with at least one risk factor based on a nomogram-revised risk index:60 years old, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase, invasion of the primary tumor, stage II or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status1 or stage II disease. Patients were treated with IMRT followed by GDP, with or without chidamide, in the first-line setting. Two-year progression-free survival (PFS) comprised the primary endpoint. Toxicities, the 2-year overall survival (OS), and the response rate comprised the secondary endpoints.Eligible patients (N = 74) were enrolled between May 2015 and December 2019. Among them, 37 patients were treated with IMRT + GDP + chidamide (chidamide group), whereas 37 cases were treated with IMRT + GDP (control group). Follow-up comprised a median of 43.4 months (range, 1.0-74.6 months). The objective response rate was 86.5% in the chidamide group and 78.4% in the control group (P = .359) at the end of treatment completion. The 2 year OS and PFS rates were 89.2% and 75.2% in the chidamide group versus 83.8% (P = .388) and 70.2% (P = .821) in the control group. The main adverse events were hematological toxicities and mucositis, with similar rates in the 2 groups (P.05).The addition of chidamide to IMRT + GDP as first-line treatment achieved similar treatment outcomes and tolerable toxicities compared with IMRT + GDP in patients with intermediate- and high-risk early-stage ENKTCL.
