Concurrent chemoradiation

Chemotherapy:

Methotrexate 40 mg/m2 weekly X 5 Radiotherapy Technique: IMRT Total dose: 50 Gy Per Fraction: 2 Gy

 Radiation: Radiotherapy alone
Radiotherapy alone Technique: IMRT Total Dose: 50 Gy Per fraction: 2 Gy
Drug: Concurrent chemoradiation

Concurrent chemoradiation

Chemotherapy:

Methotrexate 40 mg/m2 weekly X 5 Radiotherapy Technique: IMRT Total dose: 50 Gy Per Fraction: 2 Gy

Other Name: MTX

Detailed Description:

Radiotherapy alone is commonly used in NK/T-cell lymphoma without adverse risk including lymph node involvement, local invasion, B symptoms and high LDH level. Recently, methotrexate was prove to be a radiosensitizer in NK/T-cell lymphoma cells. Therefore, the investigators aim to verify the superiority and safety of weekly methotrexate in combination with radiotherapy in a randomized phase II study.
