Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: Primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of R2-miniCHOP and R-miniCHOP in patients = 80 years with not previously treated CD20+ diffuse large B-cell lymphoma as measured by the overall survival (OS)<br>;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the overall survival (OS). <br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Overall survival will be measured from the date of randomization to the date of death from any cause. Alive patients will be censored at their last contact. ;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives are :<br>- To evaluate the efficacy and the safety of R2-miniCHOP as measured by the PFS (Progression Free Survival), EFS (Event Free Survival), the DoR (duration of response), the DFS (disease free survival), response rate at the end of the treatment, the additional toxicities <br>- To evaluate the simplified scale prognostic impact (IADL, MNA, G8, CIRS-G)<br>- To assess the quality of life before and after treatment<br>
