R-DA-EDOCH Versus R-CEOP90, w/o Upfront Auto-HSCT in Young Patients With Intermediate/High-risk DLBCL

• Status: Unknown status
• Trial end date: 2021-02-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Patients initially are randomized into 4 arms:

Arm I: R-DA-EPOCH; Arm II: R-DA-EPOCH + auto-SCT; Arm III: R-CEOP90; Arm IV: R-CEOP90 + auto-SCT.

Patients who achieved complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR) after 6 cycles of R-DA-EPOCH or R-CEOP 90, continue to have 2 more cycles for consolidation in each arm (Arm I and Arm III), or undergo stem cell harvest and auto-HSCT following standard institutional protocols. (Arm II and Arm IV).

The overall purpose of the study is to determine if R-CEOP90 followed by auto-HSCT has similar efficacy compared to that with R-DA-EPOCH.
