  Purpose

About 60% of patients with DLBCL can be cured with a chemotherapy program. It is called RCHOP-21. It is given once every 3 weeks, for 18 weeks. Each three weeks is a cycle. Some factors predict that you may not be cured with R-CHOP-21. The most common ones are:

  • Stage - how much DLBCL you have
  • LDH - a blood chemistry marker; and
  • Whether you can do your normal daily activities. (performance status) We think that the best way to cure patients who have these factors is to change the treatment. You will get different chemotherapy after 4 cycles. This type of treatment is called risk-adapted therapy.

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To determine the 2-year PFS and overall survival from the start of induction therapy conditional on attaining either a negative FDG-PET or a negative biopsy at the interim evaluation. [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Obtain preliminary data on biodistribution, dosimetry and potential clinical usefulness of the proliferation marker [18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) in pts with diffuse large cell lymphoma, using combined (FDG-PET/CT). [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To determine the role of CT volumetric analysis compared to standard unidimensional CT in this patient population. [ Time Frame: conclusion of the study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 90
Study Start Date: July 2008

Arms Assigned Interventions
1: Experimental
The treatment has three parts. Part 1: Induction Part 2: Repeat Tests Part 3: Consolidation Treatment
Drug: rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Etoposide, Ifosfamide, Carboplatin
Induction: RR-CHOP-14 Chemotherapy for Three Cycles All induction treatment visits have a +/- 2 day window (excluding the restaging scans). Each cycle lasts approximately 14 days. A total of 3 cycles of RR-CHOP-14 will be given. One cycle of CHOP will follow. Consolidation A: Patients whose disease is FDG-PET negative (any residual lesion seen on companion CT with FDG uptake < blood pool activity in large vessels in the same field of view) or patients whose FDG-PET scan is positive but repeat biopsy is negative and whose initial Ki-67 expression is < 80% will receive 3 cycles of standard dose ICE Chemotherapy. Each cycle of ICE lasts 14 days. Consolidation B: Patients whose disease is FDG-PET negative or patients whose FDG-PET scan is positive but repeat biopsy is negative and whose initial Ki-67 expression is ≥80% will receive 2 cycles of augmented RICE Chemotherapy (as per MSKCC protocol 03-075). Consolidation C: Patients with biopsy proven disease after induction therapy

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years to 70 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologic diagnosis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma, PMLBL, or follicular lymphoma grade 3B confirmed by the department of hematopathology at MSKCC: Patients with discordant bone marrow involvement (i.e. involvement by small cleaved cells or small lymphocytic lymphoma) are eligible.
  • Tumors express CD20 as determined by immunohistochemistry.

    • Ki-67 evaluation of tumor tissue
  • Patients must have stage III, or IV disease. Patients with IIX, disease must have at least one other age-adjusted IPI risk factor.

    • KPS ≤ 70
    • LDH > upper limit of normal
  • All patients must have FDG-PET avid (minimum SUV) measurable disease
  • Patients must have normal baseline cardiac function based upon echocardiogram or gated blood pool scan (MUGA) with an ejection fraction ≥ 50%
  • Patients must have a serum creatinine of ≤ 1.5 mg/dl; if creatinine >1.5 mg/dl creatinine clearance must be >60 ml/minute.
  • Patients must have ANC>1000/mcl and Platelets>50,000/mcl.
  • Patients must have a bilirubin level of < 2.0 mg/dl in the absence of a history of Gilbert's disease (or pattern consistent with Gilbert's)
  • Patients must be Hepatitis B surface antigen and Hepatitis BE antigen negative and Hepatitis C negative.
  • All patients of childbearing age must be using an acceptable form of birth control.
  • Women who are pre-menopausal must have a negative pregnancy test
  • Age between 18 and 70
  • Patients must be HIV negative. This test may be pending in a patient without risk factors, as determined by the patient's physician.
  • If patients have a history of malignancy other than cutaneous basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, they must be disease-free for ≥ 5 years at the time of enrollment.
  • Patients or their guardians must be capable of providing informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any lymphoma subtype other than DLBCL, PMLBL, follicular lymphoma grade 3B
  • Patients with either parenchymal brain or lepto-meningeal involvement.
  • No more than 14 days of prednisone therapy
  • Known pregnancy or breast-feeding
  • Medical illness unrelated to NHL which in the opinion of the attending physician and principal investigator will preclude administration of chemotherapy safely. This includes patients with uncontrolled infection, chronic renal insufficiency, myocardial infarction within the past 6 months, unstable angina, cardiac arrhythmias other than chronic atrial fibrillation and chronic active or persistent hepatitis.
  • History of any malignancy for which the disease-free interval is <5 years, excluding curatively treated cutaneous basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma and carcinoma in-situ of the cervix.
