Similar efficacy was seen across patient subgroups4,5

Elderly patients ( 70 years)4

  • In patients aged >70–80 years, efficacy endpoints favoured POLIVY-R-CHP vs. R-CHOP, including progression-free survival as observed in the ITT population4
  • The analysis of this elderly population confirms the risk-benefit profile of POLIVY-R-CHP that was observed in the ITT population4

High-risk patients (young patients age 60 years, high-risk aaIPI 2,3)5,*

  • In a retrospective analysis, no significant differences in efficacy were seen in high-risk patients receiving POLIVY-R-CHP or R-CHOEP at 2 years5
  • Similar efficacy was seen across patient subgroups regardless of aaIPI 2 or 3 status at 2 years5

“Our tumor board tries to get the best therapy for our patients. In certain situations, like those with stage III or IV DLBCL, we treat with POLIVY-R-CHP, and we have had great success with the therapy.”

Safety

How does the safety data for POLIVY-R-CHP compare to that of R-CHOP?

1L=first line; aaIPI=age-adjusted International Prognostic Index; DLBCL=diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; POLIVY-R-CHP=polatuzumab vedotin + cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, prednisone;
R-CHOEP, rituximab + cyclophosphamide, etoposide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone; R-CHOP=rituximab + cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone.
