Outcomes After Reduced-Dose Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy for Gastric Mucosa- Associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT) Lymphoma

We evaluated the outcome of patients with gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (gMALT) lymphoma treated with intensity modulated radiation therapy and involved site targeting. The 2-year freedom from local treatment failure rate was 100% and 2-year overall survival was 97%. There was no difference in outcome among patients treated with standard RT doses of 30-36 Gy compared to those who received reduced RT doses of 24 Gy.
