Table 2.

Outcomes associated with R-CVP vs. R-CHOP.

ParameterPhase III CVPClinical Trial Phase II CHOPPhase III CHOP
Abbrviations: R-CVP, Rituximab + Cyclophosphamide + Vincristine + Prednisone; R-CHOP, Rituximab + Cyclophosphamide + Doxorubicin + Vincristine + Prednisone; ORR, overall response rate; CR, complete response; TTP, time-to-progression 
* Not reached at median follow-up of 20 months (i.e., 80% of R-CHOP patients still in remission) 
** Discrepancy between CR rates noted from phase II vs. phase III R-CHOP trials are addressed later in this article and are likely secondary to differences in baseline prognostic factors and patient entry criteria
