Key clinical point: Diagnosis to treatment interval (DTI; time in days from the diagnosis date to therapy initiation) is strongly associated with poor survival outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Major finding: Patients with a short vs long DTI had significantly shorter median overall (7.8 vs 11.8 years) and progression-free (2.5 vs 4.8 years) survival (both log-rank P < .0001). A short vs long DTI was associated with significantly poorer overall (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.57) and progression-free (aHR 1.50) survival (both P < .001).
Study details: This pooled analysis of three large datasets included 1097 patients with newly diagnosed MCL and available DTI data, of which 300 had a short (0-14 days) and 797 had a long (15-60 days) DTI.
Disclosures: One of the datasets, Molecular Epidemiology Resource, was supported by grants from the US National Cancer Institute. Some authors reported ties with various organizations.
