Front-Line Treatment of High Grade B Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Abstract: Purpose of Review Rituximab-based chemoimmunotherapy has resulted in a marked improvement in the survival of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We reflect upon the history front-line (1L) therapy and highlight advances in management. Recent Findings Since the introduction of R-CHOP, the majority of randomized studies in the front-line treatment of DLBCL have failed to show a benefit. Such studies have involved treatment intensification, adding novel agents to the R-… Show more

“…Despite T-cell neoplasms being a heterogeneous disease group, many of our current chemotherapy approaches are rather uniformly adopted from those developed for aggressive B-cell lymphomas [ 272 , 273 , 274 , 275 , 276 ]. We have just recently begun to address certain entities more specifically.…”

“…Rituximab-based chemoimmunotherapy is the preferred first-line treatment of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and accumulating evidence demonstrated that dose attenuation does not compromise survival in the very elderly. Thus, R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisolone), especially R-CHOP-21 (every 21 days) remains a standard of care for most of these diseases, which can provide equivalent efficacy and a superior toxicity profile [ 46 ]. With the development of molecular biology, things were new.…”
