Summary

This study tested a combination of chemotherapy (CHOP), a targeted antibody (rituximab), and a radioactive antibody (Y90 ibritumomab tiuxetan) in 30 adults aged 65-80 with newly diagnosed large B-cell lymphoma. The goal was to see if this approach could improve event-free survival. Participants received the treatment in two phases: initial chemo-immunotherapy followed by a consolidation step with the radioactive antibody.
