| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Non-Randomized Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official Title: | Prospective Non-randomized Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy Response Duration and Toxicity of RFC as First-line Treatment and R as Maintenance Treatment, in Patients Diagnosed of Follicular Non Hodgkin Lymphoma |
- Time to progression disease [ Time Frame: 42 months ]
- Free-disease period [ Time Frame: 54 months ]
- Overall survival [ Time Frame: 54 months ]
- Safety of RFC [ Time Frame: 54 months ]
Toxicity is detailed and tabulate following the WHO classification. The safety analysis includes the incidence of adverse events (AE),vital signs and laboratory parameters.
Impact tables are made of AE following the classification of preferred term. Also include an analysis of the intensity of AE and their relation to the combiantion of study treatment.
- Molecular monitoring of clinical response [ Time Frame: 54 months ]Study of t14:18 translocation with altered expression of BCL2.

Detailed Description:
The use of monoclonal antibodies, specifically the chimerical humanized anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (Rituximab, MabThera®) represents one of the most innovative aspects in the indolent lymphoma treatment. Preliminary data show from 40% to 50% of response with a median response duration between 6 and 11 months in patients with relapsing FL. This response rate increase when rituximab is administered as initial treatment.
Therefore, not only due to the clinical results but also to the tolerance, and based on an innovative mechanism of action and in its minimal toxicity, it seems reasonable to raise the possibility to incorporate the administration of the monoclonal antibody with chemotherapeutic agents.
The development of a new treatment scheme that includes Rituximab administration within treatment protocols that combine fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, whose results are better than the ones obtained with conventional treatments such as CHOP, should increase the molecular response rate and contribute therefore to increase the disease-free time interval (time to progression), without adding any toxicity, in addition to achieve a higher proportion of clinical responses (as global as complete responses). In order to increase the time interval to progression, a maintenance treatment will be carried out for 2 years, which has shown an evident benefit in the time to progression in preliminary studies.
