Key clinical point: Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) leads to high durable remission rates in patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma (FL), with the functional cure rate elucidated by long-term follow-up being >50%.

 

Major finding: At a median follow-up of 12.5 years, the 12-year time-to-progression (TTP), time-to-next-treatment, progression-free survival, and overall survival rates were 57% (95% CI 49%-65%), 61% (95% CI 52%-69%), 51% (95% CI 42%-59%), and 69% (95% CI 60%-76%), respectively. The TTP curve achieved a plateau at 57% starting 9 years after ASCT with no relapses after this timepoint; 10 patients remained alive without recurrence for ≥20 years after ASCT.

Study details: This retrospective multicenter study included 162 adult patients with relapsed FL who underwent ASCT.

Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. Some authors declared receiving honoraria from various sources.
