Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Groups and Cohorts Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Event-free survival [ Time Frame: one year ]
    Event-free survival is measured from the time from treatment initiation to any treatment failure including disease progression, or discontinuation of treatment for any reason (eg, disease progression, toxicity, patient preference, initiation of new treatment without documented progression, or death)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. complete response rate [ Time Frame: 1-year ]
    treatment response will be evaluated according to the Revised criteria for malignant lymphoma (Journal of Clinical Oncology 25:579-586)

  2. overall survival [ Time Frame: 1-year ]
    Overall survival is defined as the time from treatment initiation until death as a result of any cause

  3. Grade 4 hematologic toxicities [ Time Frame: one year ]
    toxicities will be graded according to Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) V.4.0. Hematologic toxicities planned to evaluated were; anemia (by hemoglobin), absolute neutrophil count, and platelet count
