ALCL-Relapse ALCL-Relapse: Treatment protocol for relapsed anaplastic large cell lymphoma of childhood and adolescence
Disease Relapsed anaplastic large cell lymphoma of childhood and adolescence
Type An European Inter-group Cooperation on Childhood Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (EICNHL) International Multicentre Therapy Study
Problem / Objectives

Prymary objectives

  • to improve the probability of event free survival in children and adolescents with early progression of ALCL or/and a relapse of ALCL with CD3 positive immunophenotype
  • to test whether in patients with relapse of CD3 negative ALCL occurring after the intensive phase of frontline treatment BEAM conditioning regimen (without TBI) for autologous stem cell transplantation is an effective treatment
  • to test the impact of Vinblastine in patients with late relapse of an CD3 negative ALCL

Die Zwischenanalyse zu Anfang 2012 hat ergeben, dass die autologe Transplantation keine Alternative zur allogenen SZT darstellt. Die hieraus folgenden Therapieänderungen sind unter Therapie/Studienarme aufgeführt.
