BR

BR: Bendamustine, Rituximab

CALGB 59909

Regimen

Treatments 1-2, R-M-CHOP

Interval between treatment 1 & 2 based on count recovery. Median days between treatment 1 & 2 was 23 days, with a range of 16-41 days observed.

Supportive medications:

  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) 5 mcg/kg SC daily starting on day 4, to continue until ANC >10000 once or >5000 twice
  • Levofloxacin (Levaquin) 500 mg PO daily, starting on day 6, to continue until ANC ≥1500
  • Fluconazole (Diflucan) 200 mg PO daily, starting on day 6, to continue until ANC ≥1500

Patients with ≤15% involvement by disease in bone marrow biopsy after treatment 2 proceed to treatment 3. If bone marrow biopsy after treatment 2 has >15% involvement by disease, repeat treatment 2 (identified as "treatment 2.5"). Patients with >15% bone marrow involvement by disease after treatment 2.5 were removed from protocol.

Treatment 3, "EAR"

EAR: Etoposide, Ara-C, Rituximab
Treatment 3 begins 4 weeks after treatment 2, if ANC ≥1000, platelets ≥100,000/uL, Cr <2 mg/dL, total bilirubin <2x upper limit of normal, and AST <3x upper limit of normal.

Supportive medications:

  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) 10 mcg/kg SC daily starting on day 14, to continue until peripheral blood stem cell collection is complete
  • Levofloxacin (Levaquin) 500 mg PO daily, starting on day 7, to continue until ANC ≥500
  • Fluconazole (Diflucan) 200 mg PO daily, starting on day 6, to continue until ANC ≥500
  • Acyclovir (Zovirax) 200 mg PO TID, starting on day 6, to continue until 1 year after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT)
  • Note: Text specified that Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim DS) prophylaxis started during treatment 3 (see dose/schedule in treatment 4)--although table 1 did not list it--to continue until 3 months after ASCT.

Treatment 4, "CBV"

CBV: Cyclophosphamide, BiCNU, VP-16

Supportive medications:

  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) 5 mcg/kg SC daily starting on day +4, to continue until ANC >5000 once or >1500 twice
  • Levofloxacin (Levaquin) 500 mg PO daily, starting on day +2, to continue until ANC ≥500
  • Fluconazole (Diflucan) 200 mg PO daily, starting on day +1, to continue until ANC ≥500
  • Acyclovir (Zovirax) 200 mg PO TID, starting on day -2, to continue until 1 year after ASCT
  • Trimethoprim/Sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim DS) 160/800 mg PO BID on Saturday and Sunday, to continue until 3 months after ASCT

Treatment 5, Rituximab

Additional considerations

If cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) contained disease with CSF WBC ≤5 cells/uL:

  • Methotrexate (MTX) 12 mg intrathecal x 10 total doses during treatments 1-3; not given concurrently with intrathecal methotrexate or cytarabine

If CSF contained >5 cells/uL:

  • In addition to intrathecal chemotherapy above, patient also received 2 Gy x 12 fractions (total dose 24 Gy) cranial radiation

If any patient appeared to be experiencing carmustine-induced pneumonitis:

R-Hyper-CVAD/R-MTX-Ara-C

CVAD: Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Adriamycin, Dexamethasone

Regimen

Part A (cycles 1, 3, 5, 7):

  • Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) 300 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours Q12H on days 2-4 (6 total doses)
  • Mesna (Mesnex) 600 mg/m2/day IV continuous infusion on days 2-4, starting 1 hour before cytoxan and completed 12 hours after the last dose of cytoxan
  • Vincristine (Oncovin) 1.4 mg/m2 (maximum dose of 2 mg per cycle) IV piggyback on day 5, 12 hours after the last dose of cyclophosphamide, and on day 12
  • Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) 16.6-16.7 (note: reference had slightly different dosages in the text vs. table 1) mg/m2/day IV continuous infusion over 72 hours on days 5-7
  • Dexamethasone (Decadron) 40 mg PO/IV on days 2-5, 12-15
  • Rituximab (Rituxan) 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1
    • Patients with peripheral blood involvement could have the cycle 1 dose of rituximab delayed or omitted by clinician discretion

21-day cycles, alternating every 21 days with Part B, for a total of 4 cycles of Part A and 4 cycles of Part B

Part B (cycles 2, 4, 6, 8):

  • Methotrexate (MTX) 200 mg/m2 IV over 2 hours, then 800 mg/m2 IV over 22 hours on day 2
    • Patients with a Cr >1.5 mg/dL received a 50% reduced dose of methotrexate
  • Cytarabine (Cytosar) 3000 mg/m2 (1000 mg/m2 for patients >60 years old or with Cr >1.5) IV over 2 hours Q12H on days 3 & 4 (4 total doses)
  • Folinic acid (Leucovorin) 50 mg PO x1 12 hours after methotrexate is complete, then 15 mg PO Q6H x 8 doses. If serum methotrexate level at 24 hours is >1 umol/L or at 48 hours is >0.1 umol/L, dose of folinic acid is increased to 100 mg IV Q3H.
  • Rituximab (Rituxan) 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1
  • Urine alkalinized to pH of 6.8 or more prior to the start of methotrexate and kept within that range until methotrexate is cleared
  • Prednisolone 1% ophthalmic solution 2 drops in each eye 4 times per day on days 3-9was started on the day of the start of cytarabine infusion and was continued for 7 days to prevent chemical conjunctivitis.

Protocol originally started rituximab during cycle 4, but the protocol was amended to start it on cycle 2.
Cycle 1 uses maxi-CHOP, cycle 2 uses HiDAC, cycle 3 uses maxi-CHOP, etc.

  • Rituximab (Rituxan) 375 mg/m2 IV on day 1 of cycles 2-5, and 375 mg/m2 IV on days 1 & 9 of cycle 6

HiDAC/HDAC, high-dose Cytarabine (Cytosar)

21-day cycles, alternating with maxi-CHOP, for a total of 3 cycles of maxi-CHOP and 3 cycles of high-dose cytarabine

Supportive medications:

  • Filgrastim (Neupogen) given during cycle 6 as part of stem cell mobilization, with at least 2 million CD34+ cells/kg harvested

High-dose chemotherapy with BEAM or BEAC started 1-2 weeks after completion of cycle 6, followed by stem cell transplant. If transplant was delayed, an additional 1-2 cycles of chemotherapy with maxi-CHOP or HiDAC could be given.
