Clinical Study of Chemoradiation Followed by VIPD in Nasal Natural Killer (NK)/T-cell Lymphoma
Summary
Nasal NK/T-cell lymphoma is a peculiar clinico-pathologic subtype of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Although most patients present with stage I/II, only 30-60% of the patients remain disease-free. The efficacy of the conventional anthracycline-based chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone [CHOPP]) has been unsatisfactory.
The optimal treatment of localized NK/T-cell lymphoma has not been defined yet. The optimal dose, sequence, and multi-modality treatment with involved field radiotherapy still need to be refined. This trial is to evaluate the efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin followed by VIPD (etoposide, ifosfamide, cisplatin, dexamethasone) in localized NK/T-cell lymphoma patients.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Cisplatin
An inorganic and water-soluble platinum complex. After undergoing hydrolysis, it reacts with DNA to produce both intra and interstrand crosslinks. These crosslinks appear to impair replication and transcription of DNA. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin correlates with cellular arrest in the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
Lymphoma, Aids-related
B-cell lymphoid tumors that occur in association with AIDS. Patients often present with an advanced stage of disease and highly malignant subtypes including BURKITT LYMPHOMA; IMMUNOBLASTIC LARGE-CELL LYMPHOMA; PRIMARY EFFUSION LYMPHOMA; and DIFFUSE, LARGE B-CELL, LYMPHOMA. The tumors are often disseminated in unusual extranodal sites and chromosomal abnormalities are frequently present. It is likely that polyclonal B-cell lymphoproliferation in AIDS is a complex result of EBV infection, HIV antigenic stimulation, and T-cell-dependent HIV activation.
Lymphoma, Large-cell, Immunoblastic
Malignant lymphoma characterized by the presence of immunoblasts with uniformly round-to-oval nuclei, one or more prominent nucleoli, and abundant cytoplasm. This class may be subdivided into plasmacytoid and clear-cell types based on cytoplasmic characteristics. A third category, pleomorphous, may be analogous to some of the peripheral T-cell lymphomas (LYMPHOMA, T-CELL, PERIPHERAL) recorded in both the United States and Japan.
Immunoproliferative Small Intestinal Disease
A condition that is caused by HYPERPLASIA of LYMPHOCYTES in the small intestine (INTESTINE, SMALL) and the mesenteric LYMPH NODES. These lymphocytes produce an anomalous alpha heavy chain protein. Generally, these IPSID patients have either concurrent LYMPHOMA or develop lymphoma within a few years. The disease was first described in the Mediterranean region and is characterized by malabsorption; WEIGHT LOSS; DIARRHEA; and STEATORRHEA.
Human T-lymphotropic Virus 1
A strain of PRIMATE T-LYMPHOTROPIC VIRUS 1 isolated from mature T4 cells in patients with T-lymphoproliferation malignancies. It causes adult T-cell leukemia (LEUKEMIA-LYMPHOMA, T-CELL, ACUTE, HTLV-I-ASSOCIATED), T-cell lymphoma (LYMPHOMA, T-CELL), and is involved in mycosis fungoides, SEZARY SYNDROME and tropical spastic paraparesis (PARAPARESIS, TROPICAL SPASTIC).
