Study type: Interventional

Study phase: Phase 3

Overall status: Not yet recruiting

Study design:

Allocation: Randomized

Intervention model: Parallel Assignment

Intervention model description: A non-repetitive stratified block randomization method is used, with the treatment assignment codes for participants (randomization table) being generated by a blinded statistician in a 1:1 ratio. The randomization table is then uploaded to the central randomization system for configuration. Once a participant's eligibility is confirmed, the researcher logs into the central randomization system, enters the participant's information, and obtains the participant's random number and drug code. The researcher administers the corresponding study treatment based on the drug code. Participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the experimental group (rituximab 500 mg/m²) or the control group (rituximab 375 mg/m²).

Primary purpose: Treatment

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Rituximab
Description: Patients will be randomized to receive either rituximab 500 mg/m2 or rituximab 375 mg/m2 for six cycles of R-CHOP (21 days per cycle), followed by two maintenance cycles of rituximab (21 days per cycle).
Arm group label: High-dose Rituximab Group
Arm group label: Standard-dose Rituximab Group

Summary: Comparison of MODIFIED progression-free survival (Modified-PFS) in high-dose rituximab (500mg/m²) plus CHOP versus standard-dose rituximab plus CHOP in previously untreated (TN) stage III-IV male DLBCL patients

Detailed description: This study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled Phase III clinical trial that primarily evaluates the modified progression-free survival (MODIFIED-PFS) in previously untreated male DLBCL patients treated with high-dose rituximab (500mg/m²) combined with the CHOP regimen compared to standard-dose rituximab combined with the CHOP regimen. After signing the informed consent and before randomization, all participants must provide sufficient tumor tissue biopsy samples for confirmation of DLBCL via central laboratory tests such as HE staining and IHC. Eligible participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either the experimental group (rituximab 500 mg/m2) or the control group (rituximab 375 mg/m2) and will receive 6 cycles of R-CHOP treatment (21 days per cycle), followed by 2 additional cycles of maintenance therapy with rituximab (21 days per cycle).

Criteria for eligibility:
Criteria:
Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. age <75y, male patients 2. According to the 2017 Revised WHO Classification criteria for lymphoma, the subject was diagnosed with DLBCL 3. According to Ann Arbor staging, patients were classified as stage III-IV patients 4. No previous anti-tumor systemic therapy or local radiation therapy for DLBCL 5. Expected survival ≥6 months 6. Have sufficient coagulation function and liver and kidney function 7. Haver sufficient bone marrow function 8. All patients should take medically approved contraceptive measures within 12 months after rituximab administration (specific circumstances should follow the listed drug label) 9. Subjects were enrolled voluntarily, signed informed consent, and followed the experimental treatment protocol and visit plan Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. Subjects assessed by the investigator to be intolerant to the R-CHOP regimen and/or any drug therapy; 2. Any previous anti-lymphoma systemic therapy or local radiation therapy 3. Consider patients with lymphoma involving the central nervous system (CNS) or diagnosed with primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL); The diagnosis was primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBL) 4. Previously received organ transplantation or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation 5. Had received major surgery or major trauma within 4 weeks before the first medication (or before randomization), and had participated in clinical trials of non-anti-tumor drugs or medical devices within 4 weeks 6. Have had malignant tumors other than the indications targeted in this study in the past three years 7. Participants with any serious and/or uncontrolled systemic disease who are determined by the investigator to be unsuitable for participation in the study 8. Major cardiovascular disease occurred within 6 months before the first medication (or before randomization) 9. Any conditions that affect the patient's ingestion of the drug, as well as conditions that seriously affect the absorption or pharmacokinetic parameters of the drug in the trial, including difficult to control nausea and vomiting, short bowel syndrome, etc. 10. Subjects who received live or attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to initial administration (or prior to randomization) or planned to receive live vaccine during the study period or 4 weeks after the end of study treatment 11. A hemorrhagic disease (such as von Willebrand disease or hemophilia A, hemophilia B, etc.) or according to the judgment of the investigator has a clear bleeding tendency 12. have a serious peripheral nervous system or central nervous system disease. 13. Warfarin or other vitamin K antagonists are required during the study 14. There is an autoimmune disease that cannot be controlled or requires treatment within 4 weeks prior to the first dose (or prior to randomization) 15. Doxorubicin has been used in the past ≥150 mg/m2 16. The investigator believes that the subjects have other conditions that are not suitable for participation in this experiment.
