This analysis aims to evaluate the demographic and treatment differences in primary effusion lymphoma between academic and community cancer programs.
Retrospective analysis of patients diagnosed with primary effusion lymphoma from the National Cancer Database (2004-2022)
Comparison of demographic, clinical, and survival data between patients treated at academic and community cancer programs
Use of Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models to analyze overall survival.
Of 563 patients identified, 314 were treated at academic cancer programs and 140 at community cancer programs.
Median survival was 0.73 years for academic cancer programs and 0.62 years for community cancer programs.
No significant association was found between treatment facility type and overall survival.
