简要总结
This is a randomized, multi-center,phase III study to evaluate the ability of thalidomide maintenance therapy to prolong relapse-free survival in diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL).
详细描述
This is a randomized, phase III study to evaluate the ability of thalidomide maintenance therapy to prolong relapse-free survival(RFS), in diffuse large B cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Patients will be enrolled after successful standard induction therapy (CR or CRu following standard R-CHOP-like therapy with 8 infusions of rituximab plus CHOP-like chemotherapy (4-8 cycles). Patients will be followed until an event occurs as defined in the protocol. To evaluate the clinical efficacy of thalidomide maintenance therapy as compared to observation in patients with DLBCL who have achieved a complete remission after appropriate first-line therapy, measured by RFS, 226 patients with DLCBL will be recruited.

研究组 & 干预措施
Thalidomide
Thalidomide 50mg daily by mouth( increase 50mg after 2 weeks if tolerated until 200mg/day) until disease progression or intolerance due to AEs.The dose could be reduced if the patient experienced grade 2 or higher AEs. Does reductions for AEs were recommended (200 mg daily to 100 mg daily, 100 mg daily to 50 mg daily).In patients intolerant of 50mg/day, thalidomide discontinuation was allowed.
