 Hello!
 We're happy that you've chosen to use HemOnc.org, and hope that you will return often. From now until January 31, we are conducting a survey to learn more about our users and how we can make the site better and more useful.
 Please help us by filling it out!
 Link: http://j.mp/2BlBaoQ


Use of this site is subject to you reading and agreeing with the terms set forth in the disclaimer. If this is your first time visiting, we suggest you read the tutorial.

The purpose of this page is to provide references to regimens that are obsolete, outdated, or of historical interest only. As a general rule, this includes the inferior arm(s) of a randomized study, unless said regimens continue to be recommended by trustworthy sources such as the NCCN Guidelines. Is there a regimen missing from this list? Please go to the main follicular lymphoma regimen page to find other regimens.

30 regimens on this page
38 variants on this page


Note: Some of these regimens are not specific to follicular lymphoma because they were published before the modern classification schema was finalized. That said, most indolent lymphomas are follicular lymphoma and unless otherwise specified these should be assumed to be germane to follicular lymphoma.
