  • 2.Central pathology review confirming the DLBCL diagnosis and CD20 positivity, and no evidence of DLBCL in bone marrow
  • 3.First-line treatment of DLBCL must have been 6 or 8 cycles of standard CHOP chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m2, doxorubicin 50 mg/m2, vincristine 1.4 mg/m2 up to a maximum of 2 mg on day 1, and at least 40 mg/m2/day prednisone on Days 1 to 5 every three weeks) in combination with rituximab (375 mg/m2)

CT scans of the chest, abdomen, pelvis, and neck if applicable must have been performed within 6 weeks after the last dose of the last course of CHOP R
  • 5.Central radiographic review of the CT scans (chest, abdomen, pelvis, and neck if applicable) from before and after first-line treatment with CHOP-R fulfilling the radiological requirements for CR/CRu
  • 6.Patients 60-years-of-age or older at time of randomization
  • 7.WHO performance status (PS) of 0 to 2 within 1 week of randomization
  • 8.Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1.5 x 10^9/L within 1 week of randomization
  • 9.Hemoglobin (Hgb) >= 10 g/dL within 1 week of randomization
  • 10.Platelets >= 150 x 10^9/L within 1 week of randomization
  • 11.Life expectancy of 3 months or longer
  • 12.Written informed consent obtained according to local guidelines
  • Are the trial subjects under 18? no
  • Number of subjects for this age range:
  • F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes
  • F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range
  • F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes
  • F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion Criteria

  • 1.Presence of any other malignancy or history of prior malignancy except non-melanoma skin tumors or stage 0 (in situ) cervical carcinoma
  • 2.Prior radioimmunotherapy, radiation therapy, or any other NHL therapy except first-line CHOP-R
  • 3.Presence of gastric, central nervous system (CNS), or testicular lymphoma at first diagnosis
  • 4.Histological transformation of low-grade NHL
  • 5.Known seropositivity for hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg)
  • 6.Known history of HIV infection
  • 7.Abnormal liver function: total bilirubin > 1.5 x ULN or ALT > 2.5 x ULN within 1 week of randomization
  • 8.Abnormal renal function: serum creatinine > 2.0 x ULN within 1 week of randomization
  • 9.Nonrecovery from the toxic effects of CHOP-R therapy
  • 10.Known hypersensitivity to murine or chimeric antibodies or proteins
  • 11.G-CSF or GM-CSF therapy within two weeks (or four weeks if pegylated) prior to screening laboratory sampling
  • 12.Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical disease (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of study, unstable and uncontrolled hypertension, chronic renal disease, or active uncontrolled infection) which could compromise participation in the study
  • 13.Male and female patients of child-bearing potential unwilling to practice effective contraception during the study and unwilling or unable to continue contraception for 12 months after their last dose of study treatment
  • 14.Female patients who are pregnant or are currently breastfeeding
  • 15.Treatment with investigational drugs less than 4 weeks before the planned Day 1 or nonrecovery from the toxic effects of such therapy
  • 16.Surgery less than 4 weeks before the planned Day 1 or nonrecovery from the side effects of such surgery
  • 17.Concurrent corticosteroid use for any reason except as premedication in case of known or suspected allergies to contrast media or as premedication for potential side effects of rituximab treatment
  • 18.Unwillingness or inability to comply with the protocol
