MYC-rearranged (MYC-R) lymphomas other than Burkitt lymphoma (BL) are very aggressive, with poor prognosis when treated with standard regimens. We aimed to study the characteristics and outcome of a series of MYC-R lymphomas comparing the treatment results between R-CHOP based and a specific intensive regimen for BL (BURKIMAB).Retrospective study of patients diagnosed with MYC-R. Translocations of MYC, BCL2 and BCL6 were evaluated by fluorescent in situ hybridization. Patients were treated with either, R-CHOP based immunochemotherapy or the Burkitt type regimen, BURKIMAB.Thirty-four MYC-R lymphoma cases were studied: 21 treated with R-CHOP and 13 treated with BURKIMAB. There were no differences in CR rate; 45% (9/20) for R-CHOP and 42% (5/12) for BURKIMAB (P=.99). Although overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) of BURKIMAB-treated patients were better than those of R-CHOP-treated (3y-OS: 46 vs. 24%; 3y-PFS: 46 vs. 10%), the differences were not statistically significant.MYC-R lymphomas show poor outcomes even when treated with intensive immunochemotherapy for BL.
