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.

Variant #1

Study Evidence
Trappe et al. 2011 (PTLD-1) Phase II

This regimen is intended for B-cell PTLD. Note that this is a modification of the original PTLD-1 trial schema.

Chemotherapy, part one

4-week course

Patients underwent interim staging by CT between days 40 and 50; those achieving CR proceeded to part two; all others proceeded to R-CHOP.

Chemotherapy, part two

21-day cycle for 4 cycles

Variant #2

Study Evidence
Oertel et al. 2005 Phase II, <20 pts
Choquet et al. 2005 Phase II
González-Barca et al. 2007 Phase II

This regimen is intended for B-cell PTLD.

Chemotherapy, part one

4-week course

Variant #3

Study Evidence
González-Barca et al. 2007 Phase II

This regimen is intended for patients not achieving CR after the first 4 doses of rituximab.

Chemotherapy, part one

Patients underwent interim staging 4 to 8 weeks later; those achieving CR received no further treatment, while those achieving PR received:

Chemotherapy, part two

4-week course

Variant #4

Blaes et al. 2005 Phase II, <20 pts

Chemotherapy, part one

6-month cycle for up to 2 years
