The predominant therapy for extranodal NK-T-cell lymphoma is radiation therapy. Adjudicative chemotherapy and stem cell transplant may be required.
| Stage | Involvement | Common involvement place | Preferred therapy method | Radiation dosage | Chemotherapy regimen | Alternative therapy | Over 69 /severe organ damage/low lymphocyte |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| I(E) | Single extranodal involvement | upper aerodigestive tract | Combined modality therapy‡ | 50 Gy RT | DeVIC∞ | 40 Gy RT + weekly Cisplatin | - |
| II(E) | Stage I(E) +One or more of † involvements | upper aerodigestive tract | Combined modality therapy | 50 Gy RT | DeVIC | 40 Gy RT + weekly Cisplatin | - |
| III(E)• | Stage I (E) + Cervical lymph node involvement + infra diaphragmatic lymph node / Involvement of spleen | Systemic /
