Overview
The predominant therapy for splenic marginal zone lymphoma is surgery. Adjunctive radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and biological therapy may be required. The optimal therapy for splenic marginal zone lymphoma depends on the clinical presentation.
Medical Therapy
- The optimal therapy for splenic marginal zone lymphoma depends on the clinical presentation.
- Treatment options for the condition are as under
Watchful waiting
- It is a slow growing tumor so patients may not need treatment right away unless symptomatic. Asymptomatic patients may be observed every 3-6 months.[1]
Immunotherapy
- In the pre-rituximab era splenectomy was considered to be the treatment of choice for splenic marginal zone lymphoma and still is performed for its treatment but rituximab is reported to be more beneficial in old age patients with co-morbid conditions.[2]
- Rituximab was reported to be a better option than splenectomy in terms of complete remission and overall survival of the patient.[3][4]
Chemotherapy
- chemotherapeutic drugs such as cyclophosphamide, clorambucil have been used in the past for the treatment of splenic marginal zone lymphoma but the results were not favourable.[5].
- Purine analogues such as fludarabine, pentostatin, have also been used. They are superior than alkylating agents in terms of efficacy but not better than rituximab and in addition to that they have their side efeects as well.[6]
Immunochemotherapy
- several chemotherapy regimens have been used in combination with rituxmab for the treatment of splenic marginal zone lymphoma showing high response rates and prolonged duration of response than chemotherapy alone.[7][2]
- But addition of chemotherapy doesn't seem to improve the efficacy of rituximab.[8]
| Therapy | Description |
|---|---|
| Watchful waiting | People may not need treatment right away unless they have symptoms |
| Splenectomy | Often respond very well when their spleen is removed with surgery |
| Radiation Therapy | When a splenectomy is not an option, external beam radiation therapy to the spleen |
| Chemotherapy | Doesn’t respond well to chemotherapy
|
| Biological therapy | Rituximab may be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy |
