The response rate, change of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), time to progression (TTP) and toxicity were observed.RESULTS The R-CHOP regimen can achieve a higher response rate, decrease serum LDH to a larger extent and obtain longer TTP than a conventional secondary regimen. The main adverse effects were similar to conventional chemotherapy.CONCLUSION The R-CHOP regimen is one of the most effective secondary therapies for DLBCL.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
