Patients and Methods
relapsed/refractory lymphoma
SECONDARY
We conducted a secondary analysis of the CCTG LY.12 RCT that evaluated 2-3 cycles of gemcitabine, dexamethasone, and cisplatin (GDP) vs. dexamethasone, cytarabine, and cisplatin (DHAP) in 619 patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma prior to stem cell transplant. Primary analyses reported similar response rates and survival. We calculated patient-level “contact days” by analyzing trial forms. The study period was from assignment to progression or transplant. Days without healthcare contact were considered “home days’’. We compared measures of contact days across arms.
