On Monday 3 December 2018, Oral Session 626 took place at the 60th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, San Diego, CA. During that session, results from the phase II HOVON 130 trial (Abstract #786) were presented by Martine Chamuleau from the University Medical Center, Amsterdam, NL.
In this prospective phase II trial (HOVON 130) the combination of lenalidomide and R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone), was assessed for efficacy and safety in patients with large B-cell lymphoma (except Burkitt lymphoma) with MYC rearrangements. R-CHOP alone leads to poor response rates and outcomes in these patients. The primary endpoint of the study was end of treatment complete metabolic response rate (CMR), as detected by positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT). The secondary endpoint of the trial was the predictive value of PET/CT for patient outcomes.
