Abstract

The efficacy and safety of tositumomab/iodine-131 tositumomab (TST/I-131 TST) were evaluated in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients who responded to first-line cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP). Fifteen patients (median age, 52 years) received dosimetric and therapeutic doses of TST/I-131 TST. The most common Grade 3/4 hematologic adverse events were decreased absolute neutrophil count (47%), white blood cell count (40%), platelet count (27%), and hemoglobin (20%). The complete response (CR) rate increased from 60% post-CHOP to 80% post TST / I-131 TST. With a median follow-up of 120.0 months (range, 14-130 months), median duration of response (95% confidence intervals) was 58.4 months (12.0-not reached [NR]) for patients with confirmed complete response and 58.4 months (20.9-NR) for all confirmed responders. Median progression-free survival and time to treatment failure were 63.0 months (16.1-NR). Median overall survival was not reached; 2 patients died on study. CHOP and TST/I-131 TST demonstrated clinical activity with acceptable toxicity.
