Brazilian Reality in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma - BRA-DLBCL: Multicenter Retrospective Study (Real World Evidence - RWE)

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma management is a challenge in clinical setting, as the heterogeneity of conditions due to the molecular complexity of DLBCL may limit treatment response. Other major factor is that in Brazil we lack evidence of treatment response profiling regarding this molecular complexity. To know the epidemiological profile of DLBCL, together with the first-line treatment profile that has been adopted in reference centers, as well as the management of relapsing, is essentially important in generating evidence that add up to actions targeting the improvement of patient care, providing them with better treatments. The Brazilian reality of clinical presentation, management profile, employed treatments and response rate is little known. Considering the Brazilian reality of a continental country, where healthcare services in reference centers present heterogeneous realities, analyzing clinical routine data may generate important evidence (RWE) to comprise the understanding on treatments effectiveness. Generated evidence has the potential to help understanding the reality of Brazilian patients, as well as supporting new regional researches.
