MT-R Followed by Autologous Stem Cells Transplantation in Newly-diagnosed Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

April 10, 2015 updated by: Jun Zhu
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy with MT-R followed by autologous stem cells transplantation in newly-diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

It's a single center, single arm, prospective clinical trial. Patients younger than 65 years old with primary central nervous system lymphoma will received four cycles of chemotherapy with rituximab plus high-dose methotrexate and temozolomide as induction therapy, and then received consolidation therapy with autologous stem cell transplant for which the conditioning regimen is Carmustine plus thiotepa.
