Participants received lenalidomide 15 mg capsules on days 1 to 14 of each 21 day treatment cycle followed by R-CHOP: rituximab 375 mg/m^2 by intravenous (IV) administration on Day 1, doxorubicin 50 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1, vincristine 1.4 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 (maximum dose of 2.0 mg total), cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 and oral or IV prednisone/prednisolone 100 mg on Day 1 to Day 5 of each 21 day treatment cycle for 6 cycles. Treatment continued until completed, unless unacceptable toxicity, treatment change, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent, whichever occurred first. An additional two doses (1 dose per 21-day cycle) of single agent rituximab after the 6 cycles of treatment were completed if considered standard of care per local practice. | Participants received identically matching placebo capsules on days 1 to 14 of each 21 day treatment cycle followed by R-CHOP: rituximab 375 mg/m^2 by intravenous (IV) administration on Day 1, doxorubicin 50 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1, vincristine 1.4 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 (maximum dose of 2.0 mg total), cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m^2 IV on Day 1 and oral or IV prednisone/prednisolone 100 mg on Day 1 to Day 5 of each 21 day treatment cycle for 6 to 8 cycles. Treatment continued until 6-8 cycles were completed, unless unacceptable toxicity, treatment change, disease progression, or withdrawal of consent, occurred first. An additional two doses (1 dose per 21-day cycle) of single agent rituximab after the 6 cycles of treatment were completed if considered standard of care per local practice. |

Measure Description: Body surface area is the calculated surface of a human body. BSA is often considered a more accurate measure of metabolic mass than body weight, since it's less affected by irregular amounts of fat tissue.

Measure Description: The ECOG performance status is used to describe a patient's level of functioning in terms of their ability to care for themselves, daily activity, and physical ability (walking, working, etc.). The scale ranges from 0 to 5: 0 = Fully active, no restrictions; 1 = Restricted activity but ambulatory, able to carry out work of a light nature; 2 = Ambulatory and capable of all self-care but unable to carry out work activities; 3 = Limited self-care, confined to bed or chair more than 50% of waking hours; 4 = Completely disabled, no self-care, confined to bed or chair; 5 = Dead

Measure Description: Creatinine is a waste product from the normal breakdown of muscle tissue. As creatinine is produced, it's filtered through the kidneys and excreted in urine. Doctors measure the blood creatinine level as a test of kidney function.
[2]
Measure Analysis Population Description: One creatinine clearance value is missing.

Measure Description:
The IPI score is a clinical tool developed to aid in predicting the prognosis of patients with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, including DLBCL. One point is assigned for each of the following risk factors: Age greater than 60 years, Stage III or IV disease, elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), ECOG performance status of 2, 3, or 4, more than 1 extranodal site. The sum of the points allotted correlates with the following risk groups: Low risk (0-1 points) Low-intermediate risk (2 points) High-intermediate risk (3 points) High risk (4-5 points) |

II: involvement of 2 or more lymph node regions on the same side of the diaphragm. III: involvement of lymph node regions on both sides of the diaphragm. IV: disseminated involvement of 1 or more extra-lymphatic sites with or without associated lymph node involvement.
