Summary

This study tested a chemotherapy drug called thiotepa, given via spinal injection, to prevent lymphoma from spreading to the brain or spinal cord in people with high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). 31 participants received the treatment and were followed for 2 years to see how many developed central nervous system (CNS) relapse. The goal was to find a safer and effective way to protect the brain without harsh side effects.
