Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the reliability of the Deauville score (DS) in therapy response assessment and to define the prognostic value of the metabolic response of end of induction (EOI) [(18)F]FDG PET (PET) in follicular lymphoma patients. METHODS: Adult patients with untreated grade 1-3a FL/ stage II-IV enrolled in the multicentre, prospective, phase III FOLL12 trial (NCT02063685) were randomized to receive standard immunochemotherapy followed by rituximab maintenance (standard arm) versus standard immunochemotherapy followed by response-adapted post-induction management (experimental arm). Baseline and EOI PET were mandatory for the study. All PET scans were centralized on the WIDEN® platform and classified according to DS in a blind independent central review. DS1-3 was considered negative (CMR), whereas DS4-5 was considered positive (not CMR). The primary endpoint was PFS. The main secondary endpoint was overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Overall, 807 follicular lymphoma patients-52% women, 89% stage III-IV disease, 40% with a high-risk FLIPI-2 score (3-5)-were enrolled in the study; 729 (90.4%) baseline and EOI PET were available for the analysis. EOI PET was positive (DS4-5) in 88/729 (12.1%) cases. Overall inter-reviewer agreement on PET pos/neg result was 0.92, while agreement on positive and negative cases was 0.77 and 0.94, respectively. The median follow-up was 69 months; 247 events were registered in the 5-yr follow-up, with a 5-yr PFS of 67% (95%CI: 63%-70%). The 5-yr PFS rate for PET neg (DS1-3) and PET pos (DS4-5) patients was 71% (95%CI: 67%-75%) and 36% (95%CI: 25%-46%), respectively, with HR 3.49 (95%CI: 2.57-4.72). Five-year PFS was worse as DS increased, with 74% (70%-78%), 58% (48%-67%; HR 1.71; p?=?0.001)] and 36% (25%-46%; HR 3.88; p?
