Popis: 8029 Background: Interval reduction from 3 (CHOP-21) to 2 wks (CHOP-14) and the addition of R to CHOP-21 (R-CHOP-21) improved outcome in elderly pts with DLBCL to a similar extent compared to CHOP-21. Methods: In the RICOVER-60 trial, elderly pts.(61-80 yrs) were randomized to receive 6 or 8 cy CHOP-14 with or without 8 cy R. RX was planned to sites of initial bulk and/or extranodal inv. The primary endpoint was EFS, secondary endpoints were PFS and OS. Results:Between 07/2000 and 06/2005, 1,222 pts with CD20+ DLBCL were recruited and are evaluable (med age 68 yrs; IPI=1: 30%, IPI=2: 28%, IPI=3: 26%, IPI=4,5: 16%). There was no difference between the 4 arms with respect to long-term tox and 2nd neoplasms. As by intention to treat, the 7-yr EFS rate was 33% after 6xCHOP-14 (n=307), 40% after 8xCHOP-14 (n=305), 50% after 6xR-CHOP-14 (n=306), and 52% after 8xR-CHOP-14 (n=306). After a median obs time of 82 mo, the estimated 7-yr OS rates were 50% for 6xCHOP-14, 52% for 8xCHOP-14, 62% for 6xR-CHOP-14, and 60%...
