About this study

Official title: The Study of Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin Contrast Epirubicin for the Initial Treatment of Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

270 untreated patients, age between 18 and 65 years , with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (B-DLCL) were treated with a pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PL-doxorubicin) modified CHOP-rituximab regimen. PL-doxorubicin 35-40 mg/m(2)and epirubicin 70mg/m(2) were given in combination with standard dosage of prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, rituximab (according to CHOP-R regimen) every 21 days for six courses.

Read the detailed description

PL-doxorubicin 35-40 mg/m(2) and epirubicin 70mg/m(2) were given on day 1 in combination with standard dosage of prednisone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide (according to CHOP regimen) every 21days for six courses. The choice to adopt the dosage of 30 mg/m2(instead of 50 mg/m2 of conventionaldoxorubicin) was based on pharmacokinetic data and on the results of previous studies in lymphoma.Rituximab 375 mg/m2 was given on day 0 in subsequent courses of therapy. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was given in the presence of grade 4 neutropenia or febrile neutropenia until hematological recovery. Treatment was stopped if lymphoma progressed, the patient refused further participation,or if there was any other intercurrent clinical condition or adverse event.

Being tested
PL-doxorubicin and epirubicin

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PL-doxorubicin and epirubicin in people with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, run by Hebei Medical University Fourth Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
