BR: Bendamustine, Rituximab

Regimen

Study Evidence Comparator Efficacy
Flinn et al. 2014 (BRIGHT) Phase III R-CHOP
R-CVP
Superior PFS (*)
Salar et al. 2014 (GELTAMO MALT2008-01) Phase II

Efficacy for BRIGHT is based on the 2017 update.

Chemotherapy

Note: the bendamustine infusion instructions are for the Treanda formulation, which was discontinued on 3/31/2016.

Supportive medications

  • Antiemetics, antipyretics, and antibiotics according to local standard of care
  • Prophylactic use of G-CSF allowed according ASCO guidelines (2006)

28-day cycle for up to 8 cycles, see note

Note: treatment in MALT2008-01 was response adapted; patients with CR after 3 cycles received a total of 4 cycles, whereas patients with PR after 3 cycles received a total of 6 cycles.
