Do you routinely add eight extra rituximab doses to six cycles of R-CHOP in elderly patients with DLBCL treated with miniR-CHOP as done in SMARTE-R-CHOP-14 trial ?
Answer from: Medical Oncologist at Academic Institution
I rarely give R-mini-CHOP and even when starting with that regimen I will attempt to escalate as tolerated to standard dosing in elderly patients and as such don’t see much benefit in extra rituximab.
