Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Histologically confirmed, Ann Arbor stage II, III, or IV Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) according to the Revised European American Lymphoma(REAL)/World Health Organization (WHO) classification .
  • Central pathology review confirming the DLBCL diagnosis and Cluster of differentiation 20 (CD20) positivity, and no evidence of DLBCL in bone marrow
  • First-line treatment of DLBCL must have been 6 or 8 cycles of standard CHOP chemotherapy in combination with rituximab .

Applicability of the neck CT means that the patient had involvement of the neck region by palpation / physical examination at first diagnosis (pre-CHOP-R).
  • Central radiographic review of the CT scans from before and after first-line treatment with CHOP-R fulfilling the radiological requirements for CR/CRu
  • Patients 60 years of age or older at time of randomization
  • WHO performance status (PS) of 0 to 2 within 1 week of randomization
  • Absolute neutrophil count greater than or equal to 1.5 x 10\^9/L within 1 week of randomization
  • Hemoglobin greater than or equal to 10 g/dL within 1 week of randomization
  • Platelets greater than or equal to 150 x 10\^9/L within 1 week of randomization

  • Written informed consent obtained according to local guidelines

Exclusion

  • Presence of any other malignancy or history of prior malignancy except non-melanoma skin tumors or stage 0 (in situ) cervical carcinoma
  • Prior radioimmunotherapy, radiation therapy, or any other NHL therapy except first-line CHOP-R
  • Presence of gastric, central nervous system or testicular lymphoma at first diagnosis
  • Histological transformation of low-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)
  • Known seropositivity for hepatitis C virus or hepatitis B surface antigen
  • Known history of Human Immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
  • Abnormal liver function: total bilirubin \> 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or Alanine Aminotransferase \> 2.5 x ULN within 1 week of randomization
  • Abnormal renal function: serum creatinine \> 2.0 x ULN within 1 week of randomization
  • Nonrecovery from the toxic effects of CHOP-R therapy
  • Known hypersensitivity to murine or chimeric antibodies or proteins
  • Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) or Granulocyte Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) therapy within two weeks (or four weeks if pegylated) prior to screening laboratory sampling
  • Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical disease (e.g., uncontrolled diabetes,congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction within 6 months of study, unstable and uncontrolled hypertension, chronic renal disease, or active uncontrolled infection) which could compromise participation in the study
  • Male and female patients of child-bearing potential unwilling to practice effective contraception during the study and unwilling or unable to continue contraception for 12 months after their last dose of study treatment
  • Female patients who are pregnant or are currently breastfeeding
  • Treatment with investigational drugs less than 4 weeks before the planned Day 1 or nonrecovery from the toxic effects of such therapy
  • Surgery less than 4 weeks before the planned Day 1 or nonrecovery from the side effects of such surgery
  • Concurrent systemic corticosteroid use for any reason except as premedication in case of known or suspected allergies to contrast media or as premedication for potential side effects of rituximab treatment
  • Unwillingness or inability to comply with the protocol
