Key clinical point: Among patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who do not complete the recommended six cycles of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (R-CHOP) combination chemotherapy, those who do vs do not achieve primary response or complete ≥3 chemotherapy cycles have better survival.

Major finding: The 5-year overall survival rate was significantly higher in patients who did vs did not complete ≥3 cycles of R-CHOP (58.5% vs 24.2%; P < .001) and in those who did vs did not achieve complete or partial response after R-CHOP (56.9% vs 14.1%; P < .001).

Study details: Findings are from a single-center real-world retrospective study including 165 patients with DLBCL who did not receive the planned 6 cycles of R-CHOP.

Disclosures: No information on the source of funding was provided. SS Yoon declared serving as an advisor for and receiving research grants from various organizations.
