Brief Summary: Nasalnasal type NK-T-cell lymphoma is a rare and severe type of non-Hodgkins lymphoma NHL more frequent in Asia than in western countries When localised radiotherapy seems to be the best treatment When radiotherapy cannot be used because of dissemination or relapse chemotherapy protocols used for other types of NHL give poor results and survival is poor Recently papers from China and Japan reported the efficacy of a drug l-asparaginase usually used to treat acute lymphoblastic leukemia In vitro a selective apoptosis of NK-cell tumours by l-asparaginase was shown on tumour cell lines and samples

The investigators propose a phase II protocol for patients with refractory or relapsing nasalnasal type NK-T-cell lymphoma using a regimen combining l-asparaginase methotrexate and dexamethasone Biological studies will be conducted trying to find factors which could predict responses to this chemotherapy

Since january 2009 the study concerns all patients with nasalnasal type NK-T-cell lymphoma who have not received asparaginase before
Detailed Description: Primary Objective

Determine the overall and complete response rate

Secondary Objectives

To evaluate survival without progression
To evaluate total survival
To evaluate the tolerance and the side effects of the treatment
To evaluate the duration and the mode of hospitalization of the patients treated by this therapeutic association
To constitute a bank of biological samples - serum tumoral ADN ARN to allow prognostic studies implying virus EBV p53 CD94 C-kit and asparagine synthetase gene in order to better understand the mechanisms of the cancerogenesis of this variety of cytotoxic LNH and to identify the predictive factors of response to the asparaginase

Sampling

For each patient included in the protocol the following sampling will be carried out with the diagnosis

Biopsy
Medullary biopsy
Medullary aspiration
blood 3 tubes of 7 ml on EDTA and 3 tubs of 7 ml with heparin

Treatment

All the patients included will receive three cures separated by 3 weeks J1 J22 J43

J1 Methotrexate 3 grm2
J2 J4 J6 and J8 Kidrolase 6000 um2
J1 with J4 Dexamethasone 40 mg 20 mg if age 70 years
