reduced risk of progression, relapse, or death with 

POLIVY-R-CHP vs R-CHOP.1,*

That means more hope for the future, and more freedom from the threat of disease.

POLARIX Trial

What is the POLARIX trial?

A phase III trial to compare the efficacy and safety of polatuzumab vedotin in combination with R-CHP vs R-CHOP in 1L DLBCL1

Efficacy

Was a meaningful benefit seen for 1L DLBCL patients?

The POLIVY-R-CHP regimen demonstrated a clinically meaningful progression-free survival benefit over R-CHOP1

Safety

Were there any safety concerns?

The overall safety profile of POLIVY-R-CHP is similar to that of R-CHOP and consistent with the known risk of the individual study drugs1

“The new regimen should reduce the risk of relapse and help patients avoid intensive treatments such as stem cell transplantation and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.”14
