Abstract

AbstractChemotherapy with R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, Adriamycin, vincristine, prednisolone) is the standard of care for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma as the first-line therapy. The recent approval of polatuzumab as the first-line therapy after demonstration of its efficacy in the Polatuzumab Vedotin in Previously Untreated Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (POLARIX) trial is the first significant change in this treatment regimen over two decades. This concise appraisal of trial evidence and clinical context highlights the limited potential for a clinically significant benefit with the addition of polatuzumab to the first-line therapy for this common hematologic malignancy.
