Lancet Oncol 2006, 7:379-391. Large international study confirming that in patients below the age of 60 years with DLBCL, the addition of rituximab to CHOP and other more intensified regimens significantly improves disease-free and overall survival, providing the best results ever reported for this group of patients. This study also shows that intensifying chemotherapy while using rituximab produces no benefit.
