Outline of Final Research Achievements

We conducted a retrospective study including patients with extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type (ENKL) diagnosed between 2000 and 2013 in 31 institutes in Japan (NKEA Part A) and elucidated the current status of next-generation therapy in clinical practice in Japan. The median age at diagnosis of all 358 patients was 58 years. Of 257 patients with localized ENKL, 66% received RT-DeVIC as first-line therapy. Efficacy and toxicity of RT-DeVIC in those patients were comparable to those in the JCOG0211 trial. Elevated pretreatment serum soluble IL-2 receptor was associated with short survival in those patients. L-asparaginase-containing chemotherapy was selected in 30% of 101 patients with untreated advanced ENKL.
