7511 Background: Although patients (pts) with MCL have a high response rate to standard chemotherapy, they continue to relapse with no plateau in long term disease-free survival. The use of dose intense induction therapy such as HyperCVAD (M-C) ±Rituximab(R) and high-dose therapy and stem cell may improve these results. In this analysis the outcomes of pts receiving a standard anthracycline induction therapy or HyperCVAD(M-C)(±R) then followed by a stem cell transplant in first complete (CR1) or partial remission (PR1) were compared. Methods: Between 6/91 and 11/05, 124 pts with MCL received high-dose chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. Of these pts, 80 received an autologous stem cell transplant in CR1 (N = 47) or PR1 (N = 33). A standard anthracycline based CHOP-like (±R) induction therapy was given to 48 pts compared with 32 pts who received HyperCVAD(M-C)(±R) prior to transplant. Results: The median age of pts was 56 years (range 33–70). The male:female ratio was 33:57. Bone marrow involvement prior to conditioning was present in 52% of pts. An elevated lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) was present in 58% of pts. 65% of patients received one prior chemotherapy before coming to stem cell transplant. The median follow up of pts is 38 months (range 3–143). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) are outlined in table 1 . Characteristics associated with an improved OS by multivariate analysis included receiving HyperCVAD induction (p = 0.04), transplant in CR1 (p = 0.009), ≤ 3 prior chemotherapy regimens (p = 0.02) and no B symptoms at transplant (p = 0.05). Conclusions: To improve the long term disease free survival for pts with MCL, Hyper-CVAD(M-C)(±R) induction should be given to eligible patients with autolgous stem cell transplantation in CR1.
