ACVBP Followed by ASCT in Patients With BCL-2 Positive Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]

Purpose The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of ASCT as consolidation in case of bcl-2 overexpression in non previously treated patients aged 60 years or less with low-intermediate risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who responded to ACVBP regimen. Our goal is to obtain a 15% increase of event-free survival at 2 years.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma according to the WHO classification (anti
CD20 labeling)

- Aged 18 to 60 years

- Non previously treated

- With one and only one of the following adverse characteristics: ECOG performance
status 2 or more, or Ann Arbor stage III or IV, or elevated LDH level

- Negative HIV, HBV and HCV serologies (except vaccination)

- With a minimum life expectancy of 3 months

- Having previously signed a written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:
