Summary

About 60% of patients with DLBCL can be cured with a chemotherapy program. It is called RCHOP-21 (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone). It is given once every 3 weeks, for 18 weeks. Each three weeks is a cycle. Some factors predict that you may not be cured with R-CHOP-21. The most common ones are:

* Stage - how much DLBCL, PMBL, or FL3B you have
* LDH - a blood chemistry marker; and
* Whether you can do your normal daily activities. (performance status) We think that the best way to cure more patients with poor risk factors is to add new treatment to R-CHOP. You will get different chemotherapy after 4 cycles. This type of treatment is called risk-adapted therapy.

Conditions

  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Interventions

DRUG

Etoposide, carboplatin, ifosfamide

Patients in consolidation A will receive three drugs in a regimen called ICE. You will have 3 cycles. Each new cycle begins 2 to 3 weeks after the last one.

DRUG

Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, Carboplatin

It consists of four drugs in a regimen called augmented RICE (augRICE). It is given every 3 weeks for 2 cycles.

DRUG

Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, Carboplatin, Stem Cell Collection, Mitoxantrone, Cyclophosphamide and etoposide, Carmustine

It consists of four drugs in a regimen called augRICE. It is given every 3 weeks for 2 cycles. After the rituximab on day 3, you will then be admitted to the hospital for 2 to 3 nights. Part 2: Stem Cell Collection, Part 3: High dose chemoradiotherapy and stem cell transplant. Your doctor may want you to get radiation therapy. If so, it will start 2 weeks before the highdose chemotherapy. This regimen is called CBV-N chemotherapy. It is given by vein in the hospital.
