Dose-Reduced Consolidation Radiation Therapy in Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma
Sponsor: Duke University
Summary
This phase II study will evaluate whether a reduction in radiation dose and field size will maintain a high rate of local control while minimizing the risk of acute and late toxicity . Hypothesis: The radiation dose and treatment volume can be safely reduced from 30 Gy to 20 Gy while maintaining high rates of local control in patients who had a negative PET-CT scan following rituximab - containing chemotherapy.

Radiation Therapy
This phase II study will evaluate whether a reduction in the RT dose, concomitant with a decrease in the RT field size, in patients that achieve complete response and have a negative post-chemotherapy PET scan following 3 to 6 cycles of rituximab containing chemotherapy, will be associated with a low risk of in-field failure. The goal of this approach is to maintain excellent control rates while minimizing the risk of acute and late toxicity.
