Dose-Reduced Consolidation Radiation Therapy in Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

Phase II Study of Dose-Reduced Consolidation Radiation Therapy in Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This phase II study will evaluate whether a reduction in radiation dose and field size will maintain a high rate of local control while minimizing the risk of acute and late toxicity . Hypothesis: The radiation dose and treatment volume can be safely reduced from 30 Gy to 20 Gy while maintaining high rates of local control in patients who had a negative PET-CT scan following rituximab - containing chemotherapy.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Any absolute contraindications to irradiation

Other

  • Primary central nervous system lymphoma, primary cutaneous DLBCL, leg type. T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma, primary mediastinal (thymic) large B-cell lymphoma, or other distinct non-Hodgkin lymphomas arising from large B-cells included in the WHO classification

Who the study is looking for

  • Histologic documentation of stage I-IV diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL NOS), as defined by the 2016 WHO classification. This would include all entities within this category including germinal center B-cell and non-germinal center B-cell subtypes and those with a double expressor phenotype. Also eligible are stage I-IV high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements and high-grade B-cell lymphoma, NOS
  • Completion of at least 3 cycles of rituximab-containing, anthracycline-based combination chemotherapy
  • Negative post-chemotherapy PET-CT scan or negative interim PET-CT scan performed within 2 weeks of the final cycle of chemoimmunotherapy. This is defined as a score of 1-3 on the PET Five Point (Deauville) Scale using the Modified Lugano Response Criteria for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
  • Absolute neutrophil count greater than 1000 and platelet count greater than 40,000
  • Negative pregnancy test in women of child-bearing potential
  • Signed study specific informed consent

Age in the registry: 18 years to 80 years · Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
