Relapse in patients with limited-stage ocular adnexal lymphoma treated by chemoimmunotherapy: Extended follow-up of a phase 2 study.

Although the response rate was remarkable for chemoimmunotherapy, the risk of late relapse was considerable. Based on our findings, clinical trials for limited-stage OAML patients should have a long-term observation period. To minimize radiation toxicity and reduce the risk of delayed relapse (local relapse and distant relapse), a future study with sequential or combination treatment of local low-dose radiation and systemic chemoimmunotherapy can be considered.
