Core Tip |
Therapeutic intensity has been progressively reduced in patients with limited-stage diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the stomach, with a consequent improvement in tolerability and quality of life, and with unimpaired survival figures. In particular, patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-positive lymphoma and favourable prognostic factors can be managed with antibiotics alone, with excellent disease control and cure rates, keeping chemo-radiotherapy for unresponsive patients. Future studies should be focused on the establishment of reliable variables able to distinguish the best candidates for exclusive treatment with H. pylori eradication from those who need for conventional therapy. |
