Factors related to the relative survival of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in a population-based study in France: does socio-economic status have a role?
IF 7.702; International audience; The survival of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has increased during the last decade as a result of addition of anti-CD20 to anthracycline-based chemotherapy. Although the trend is encouraging, there are persistent differences in survival within and between the USA and European countries suggesting that non-biological factors play a role. Our aim was to investigate the influence of such factors on relative survival of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. We conducted a retrospective, multicenter, registry-based study in France on 1165 incident cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma between 2002 and 2008. Relative survival analyses were p…
Epidemiology of Mantle Cell Lymphoma: A Population-Based Study in France
Abstract Abstract 5222 Introduction: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive and rare B-cell lymphoma entity representing around 5–8% of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas in adults. To our knowledge no data is available on the epidemiology of MCL in France. We aimed to describe incidence, survival and main clinical characteristics of MCL in a French population. Methods: Patients diagnosed with MCL were identified in three administrative areas covered by an haematological malignancies registry: the Côte d'Or (from 1988 to 2008), the Basse-Normandie (from 1997 to 2006) and the Gironde (from 2002 to 2006). Main clinical features and management characteristics were collected. World age-standardised …
Geographical Disparities in Multiple Myeloma Survival in Three French Regions
Abstract Introduction: Within the past decade, new therapeutic agents for Multiple Myeloma (MM) have improved survival of patients included in clinical trials. The aim of this study was to measure and compare characteristics and survival of patients with MM in different French regions in the general population. Methods: All incident cases with MM (ICD-O-3 codes, 9732/3 and) between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2009 in the French population-based Hematological Malignancies registries (Calvados, Côte d'Or and Gironde) were included. The end point of follow-up was January 1, 2015. Specific clinical information was recorded from clinical charts. Incidence rates were calculated using estimat…
