==Regimen #1, dose-adjusted EPOCH (DA-EPOCH), Wilson, et al. 2002==
 
*[[Etoposide (Vepesid)]] 50 mg/m2/day (total dose of 200 mg/m2) IV continuous infusion on days 1-4

*[[Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)]] 750 mg/m2 IV over 15 minutes on day 5
 
 
 
Supportive medications:
 
*[[Filgrastim (Neupogen)]] 5 mcg/kg SQ daily, starting on day 6 and continuing until ANC >5,000/uL past nadir
 
*PCP prophylaxis with any one of the following:
 
**[[Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim DS)]] 160/800 mg PO BID 3 days per week
 
**[[Atovaquone (Mepron)]] 1500 mg PO daily
 
**Pentamidine (Nebupent) 300 mg nebulized every 28 days
 
 
 
'''21-day cycles x 6-8 cycles'''
 
 
 
Dose-adjustments for EPOCH protocol:
 
*Start cycle 1 as described above.
 
*Obtain CBCs twice per week for nadir measurements.
 
*If nadir ANC >500, increase etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*If nadir ANC <500 on 1 or 2 measurements, use same doses as last cycle.
 
*If nadir ANC <500 on at least 3 measurements, decrease etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*And/or if nadir platelet count <25 on at least 1 measurement, decrease etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*'''Dose adjustments below the cycle 1 starting dose only applies to cyclophosphamide.'''  The lowest etoposide and doxorubicin would be dosed at is the original cycle 1 dose.
 
*Can start new cycle every 21 days if ANC >1,000 and platelets >100.  If counts are below those levels, check daily CBC and continue growth factor support until counts are adequate and next cycle can start.

==Regimen==
 
*[[Rituximab (Rituxan)]] 375 mg/m2 IV once per cycle or day 1 before the start of EPOCH (depending on reference)
 
*[[Etoposide (Vepesid)]] 50 mg/m2/day (total dose of 200 mg/m2) IV continuous infusion on days 1-4
 
*[[Prednisone (Sterapred)]] 60 mg/m2 PO BID on days 1-5
 
*[[Vincristine (Oncovin)]] 0.4 mg/m2/day (total dose of 1.6 mg/m2) IV continuous infusion on days 1-4
 
*[[Doxorubicin (Adriamycin)]] 10 mg/m2/day (total dose of 40 mg/m2) IV continuous infusion on days 1-4
 
*[[Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)]] 750 mg/m2 IV over 15 minutes on day 5
 
 
 
'''21-day cycles x 6-8 cycles'''
 
 
 
Supportive medications:
 
*[[Filgrastim (Neupogen)]] 5 mcg/kg SQ daily, starting on day 6 and continuing until ANC >5,000/uL past nadir
 
*PCP prophylaxis with any one of the following:
 
**[[Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim DS)]] 160/800 mg PO BID 3 days per week
 
***Alternative used only in García-Suárez, et al. 2007: cotrimoxazole 480 mg PO BID 3 days per week
 
**[[Atovaquone (Mepron)]] 1500 mg PO daily
 
**Pentamidine (Nebupent) 300 mg nebulized every 28 days
 
*Only in García-Suárez, et al. 2007: [[Darbepoetin alfa (Aranesp)]] 2.25 ug/kg SC when hemoglobin concentration was ≤100 g/l.
 
 
 
Dose-adjustments for EPOCH protocol:
 
*Start cycle 1 as described above.
 
*Obtain CBCs twice per week for nadir measurements.
 
*If nadir ANC >500, increase etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*If nadir ANC <500 on 1 or 2 measurements, use same doses as last cycle.
 
*If nadir ANC <500 on at least 3 measurements, decrease etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*And/or if nadir platelet count <25 on at least 1 measurement, decrease etoposide, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide by 20% compared to previous cycle.
 
*'''Dose adjustments below the cycle 1 starting dose only applies to cyclophosphamide.'''  The lowest etoposide and doxorubicin would be dosed at is the original cycle 1 dose.
 
*Can start new cycle every 21 days if ANC >1,000 and platelets >100.  If counts are below those levels, check daily CBC and continue growth factor support until counts are adequate and next cycle can start.
 
 
 
'''21-day cycles x 6-8 cycles'''
 
 
 
Supportive medications:
 
*EITHER [[Filgrastim (Neupogen)]] 5 mcg/kg SQ daily, starting 24 hours after EPOCH is completed and continuing until "neutrophil recovery"--no absolute count specified
 
*OR [[Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta)]] 6 mg SC x1 24 hours after EPOCH is completed
 
*[[Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim DS)]] 160/800 mg PO 3x per week (e.g. Monday, Wednesday, Friday)
 
*Fluconazole (Diflucan) 100 mg PO daily
 
*Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) 500 mg PO BID, starting on day 8 and to continue to at least day 15 or postnadir ANC of at least 1000
 
**Other fluoroquinolone can be used at discretion of physician
