Am Relapsed DLBCL Patient. What Are The Other Suitable Chemotherapy Regimens?
Iam a relapsed dlbcl patient relapsed after autologous transplant done in Aug-2011. I have taken R_CHOP 6 cycles since Aug-2009,6 cycles of R_MINE after 1st relapse in Aug 2010.Now what are the other suitable Chemo regimens available for treatment .If radioimmunotherapy with Zevalin would be suitable for me. I am a humanmale aging 49 yrs.
there are many chemotherapy regimens for relapsed DLBCL like RICE, GEM OX, DHAP etc. Choice of regimen is decided by the treating doctor. Radioimmunotherapy is not done widely. it is expensive and it has got its own side effects. Since it has relapsed very soon, complete cure cannot be achieved now and whatever regimen if followed, the aim is to prolong survival and offer good quality of life
