Abstract
Background Primary central nervous system lymphoma(PCNSL) is an aggressive, rare form of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, characterized by the absence of systemic disease. There are limited data and no strictly defined guidelines for management of PCNSL. Objective The aim of this study was to report a 10 year experience of PCNSL treatment, to evaluate treatment outcomes and asses Progression Free and Overall Survival of these patients. Methods Study was conducted on the Haematology Clinic, Clinical center University of Sarajevo, BH, in the period from January 2012.-December 2022. Total sample of 24 patients were enrolled. All have undergone diagnostic surgery. Patients were treated with regimens based on High dose Methotrexate, with/without whole brain radiotherapy as consolidation. Treatment response was captured by imaging techniques. Patients who have relapsed were evaluated with imaging techniques and treated according to Methotrexate-based treatment protocols. Results We have captured equal gender distribution. The median age of patients was 59.5 years (range 20-79). Pathohistological analysis confirmed DLBCL diagnosis in 22 patients, T cell lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma, each in 1 patient. Chemotherapy, chemotherapy combined with WBRT and radiotherapy were given to 5, 18 and 1 patients, respectively. The overall complete response rate (CR) was 87,15%. Those receiving combined modality-treatment had higher CR than those receiving chemotherapy (94,4% versus 60%). Out of 24 patients, 11 of them relapsed. The median time to relapse was 29 months (from 1 to 105). After second line of the treatment, CR was 54,5%, while 45,45% of patients died during the treatment. 4 patients relapsed for the second time with median time to relapse of 9 months (from 2 to 77). 2 year OS rate was 67%, and the median OS rate was 45,9 months. 2 year PFS rate was 31%. Conclusion The OS and PFS rates indicate the usage of new drugs and consolidation with autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with PCNSL in order to achieve better treatment outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The optimal treatment for newly diagnosed and refractory or relapsed primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is not fully defined. We review the epidemiology, clinical presentation, and current management strategies for newly diagnosed PCNSL as well as emerging treatments for refractory and relapsed disease. RECENT FINDINGS In recent decades, the incidence of PCNSL has increased in the elderly population. With advancements in chemotherapy for PCNSL, survival has improved. However, outcomes remain inferior when compared with other forms of extranodal lymphoma. Additionally, treatments can be associated with clinically significant neurotoxicities. Despite advances in the treatment of PCNSL, current treatment regimens remain suboptimal in terms of response rates and neurotoxicity. Well-tolerated agents, especially for the elderly, are still needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a frequent, potentially lethal complication in individuals with cancer. Patients with brain tumors are at particularly high risk for VTE. Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare subtype of diffuse large B cell lymphoma, involving the craniospinal axis. The incidence of VTE in patients with PCNSL was reported as very high, occurring mostly in the early period of therapy. OBJECTIVES We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) throughout the treatment of PCNSL. PATIENTS All patients >18 years of age diagnosed and treated for PCNSL at our institution in 2005-2017 were included. RESULTS There were 44 patients; mean age at diagnosis was 61.5 years. Three patients (6.8%) had a personal history of thrombosis, 11 (25%) had a history of diabetes or smoking, and 32 (72%) had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-1 at diagnosis. During treatment with LMWH, no VTE events were recorded; 2 (4.5%) patients experienced a minor bleeding event and 1 (2.3%) a major bleeding event. CONCLUSIONS Among our 44 patients with PCNSL treated with prophylactic LMWH, no VTE events were recorded, and only 1 (asymptomatic) intracranial bleed was recorded. Within the limitations of a retrospective nonrandomized study, our findings suggest that VTE prophylaxis may be beneficial for individuals with PCNSL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The optimal regimen for use of high dose-methotrexate-based chemotherapy in primary central nervous system lymphoma is still under debate. We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the treatment outcome of a combination immunochemotherapy consisting of rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine followed by with or without whole brain radiotherapy and consolidation cytarabine, in comparison with high dose-methotrexate monotherapy followed by full dose whole brain radiotherapy. METHODS Newly diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma patients treated with either rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine or high dose-methotrexate in Kyorin University Hospital were identified, and the response rates and survival were compared. Toxicities, post-treatment transition of Mini-Mental State Examination, Karnofsky performance status score, Fazekas scale and prognostic factors were analysed in the rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine group. RESULTS Ninety-five patients treated with rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine (n = 39) or high dose-methotrexate (n = 56) were analysed. The complete response/complete response unconfirmed rate was significantly higher in the rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine group (74.4 vs. 15.4%, P < 0.001). Accordingly, both median progression-free survival and overall survival were significantly longer in the rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine group (median progression-free survival: unreached vs. 14.75 months, P < 0.001) (median overall survival: unreached vs. 63.15 months, P = 0.005). Although the rate of grade 3/4 hematologic toxicities was high both during rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine and consolidation cytarabine, the rate of grade 3/4 infections was low, and no treatment related deaths were observed. Deterioration in Karnofsky performance status or Mini-Mental State Examination was rare, except on disease recurrence. Although whole brain radiotherapy was associated with Fazekas scale deterioration, its association with Karnofsky performance status or Mini-Mental State Examination deterioration was not significant. CONCLUSIONS Rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine was apparently promising in comparison with high dose-methotrexate monotherapy with manageable toxicity in this retrospective study, and further investigation is warranted.

Abstract
Purpose of Review The treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is still under debate. One of the issues is the role of rituximab in improving the outcome. Here, we summarize the existing evidence, and comment on the literature on this topic. Recent Findings Two randomized controlled studies have been published recently, with conflicting results. Although the evidence of the benefit of rituximab is limited, it is already incorporated into many treatment regimens, both in studies and in standard clinical practice. Summary The use of rituximab in PCNSL is still a matter of debate. A positive effect on the outcome is uncertain. However, there are no clinical signs of significantly increased toxicity. The uncertain positive effect should therefore be weighed against the increased costs of the treatment.

Abstract
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), a rare variant of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is characterized by distinct biological characteristics and clinical behaviors, and patient prognosis is not satisfactory. The advent of high-dose (HD) methotrexate (HD-MTX) therapy has significantly improved PCNSL prognosis. Currently, HD-MTX-based chemotherapy regimens are recognized as first-line treatment. PCNSL is sensitive to radiotherapy, and whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) can consolidate response to chemotherapy; however, WBRT-associated delayed neurotoxicity leads to neurocognitive impairment, especially in elderly patients. Other effective approaches include rituximab, temozolomide, and autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT). In addition, new drugs against PCNSL such as those targeting the B-cell receptor signaling pathway, are undergoing clinical trials. However, optimal therapeutic approaches in PCNSL remain undefined. This review provides an overview of advances in surgical approaches, induction chemotherapy, radiotherapy, ASCT, salvage treatments, and novel therapeutic approaches in immunocompetent patients with PCNSL in the past 5 years. Additionally, therapeutic progress in elderly patients and in those with relapsed/refractory PCNSL is also summarized based on the outcomes of recent clinical studies.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the curative effect of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) combined with teniposide (Vm26) vs. HD-MTX alone in the treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), in order to provide data for assisting decisions associated with clinical treatment. Data from 56 patients with PCNSL admitted in Shanghai Huashan Hospital (Shanghai, China) from January 2009 to December 2014 were included into the present study. Clinical data, curative effects and prognosis of patients in these two groups were retrospectively analyzed using SPSS 20 statistical software. In the HD-MTX+Vm26 group, 12 patients (42.85%) achieved complete remission (CR) and 10 patients (35.71%) achieved partial remission (PR), while in the HD-MTX group 7 patients (25%) achieved CR and 11 patients (39.29%) achieved PR (P=0.158). The median progression-free survival (PFS) time was 22 months in the HD-MTX+Vm26 group and 12 months in the HD-MTX group (P=0.019). The median overall survival time was 57 months in the HD-MTX+Vm26 group, and 28 months in the HD-MTX group (P=0.013). Compared with HD-MTX alone, the combined treatment of HD-MTX+Vm26 had an improved curative effect in the treatment of PCNSL, effectively controlled tumor progression in patients, prolonged survival time and improved prognosis. Age was an independent prognostic factor in patients with PCNSL. Patients with an age of ≤60 years exhibited longer PFS compared with patients with an age of >60 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review focuses on the findings of recent randomized prospective trials evaluating new therapeutic options for primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) in first-line treatment and on the most promising novel agents. RECENT FINDINGS The current standard treatment of newly diagnosed PCNSL has long been depending on high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX)-based polychemotherapy followed by whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Recent randomized trials have provided evidence that high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a valuable alternative option to WBRT as consolidation after induction HD-MTX-based chemotherapy. For the elderly, cumulative studies confirm that chemotherapy alone as initial treatment is the best approach in this frail population in order to reduce chemoradiation neurotoxicity. If the role of rituximab needs to be further investigated, novel agents such as imids and ibrutinib have shown to be promising drugs to be incorporated in innovative combination treatment. The role of WBRT, at least at conventional dose, is declining in first-line treatment in favor of intensive consolidation chemotherapy with or without ASCT and possibly maintenance chemotherapy in the elderly. Despite their rarity, it has been shown that ambitious randomized trials in PCNSL are feasible thanks to collaborative networks.

Abstract
The purpose of this retrospective study was to compare the efficacy and toxicity of high-dose methotrexate plus temozolomide (MT regimen) and rituximab plus MT (RMT regimen) in patients with untreated primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). A total of 62 patients with untreated PCNSL were enrolled between January 2005 and December 2015, with the median age of 53.5 years (range 29-77).In this study, 32 patients received RMT as induction therapy, and 30 received MT. Objective responses were noted in 93.7% of the patients in the RMT group and in 69.0% of the patients in the MT group (P = 0.018), while complete responses were noted in 53.2% of the patients in the RMT group and 27.6% of the patients in the MT group (P < 0.001). The 2- and 5-year PFS rates were 81.3% and 53.3%, respectively, for the RMT group and 46.5% and 29.1%, respectively, for the MT group (P = 0.019). The 2- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 82.3% and 82.3%, respectively, for the RMT group and 65.7% and 50.0%, respectively, for the MT group (P = 0.015). Multivariate analyses showed that therapeutic regimen (RMT vs MT) was an independent prognostic factor for PFS and OS. Our encouraging results suggest that the RMT regimen may be a feasible and safe therapeutic approach for first-line treatment of PCNSL.
