January 3, 2017 updated by: Jun Zhu, Peking University

Efficacy and Safety of Erythropoietin in the Treatment of Anemia in Patients With Lymphoma After Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

This is an randomized trial to evaluate the potential benefit of erythropoietin in the treatment of anemia in patients with lymphoma after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Erythropoietin will be administered subcutaneously (s.c.) at the dose of 10 000 IU, three times a week. If necessary,oral ferrous succinate vitamins B12 and folic acid will be administered.
Other Names:
  • Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agent
Active Comparator: iron supplementation
If necessary，oral ferrous succinate, vitamins B12 and folic acid will be administered.
Drug: iron supplementation
If necessary, oral ferrous succinate, vitamins B12 and folic acid will be administered.
Other Names:
  • ferrous succinate
