Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) of the monomorphic variety is typically treated as per the histologic subtype, which is usually [[Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma|diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)]]. However, some regimens specific to PTLD have been developed, primarily due to concern of excess infectious toxicities in the setting of immunosuppression, and are included here.

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) of the monomorphic variety is typically treated as per the histologic subtype, which is usually diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, some regimens specific to PTLD have been developed, primarily due to concern of excess infectious toxicities in the setting of immunosuppression, and are included here.

    • González-Barca et al. 2007, patients achieving PR: Rituximab consolidation
  • PTLD-1: Patients underwent interim staging by CT between days 40 and 50
    • PTLD-1, patients achieving CR: Rituximab consolidation
    • PTLD-1, patients not achieving CR: Salvage R-CHOP


Regimen variant #2, q6mo blocks

Study Dates of enrollment Evidence
