Abstract

The FM (fludarabine [Fludara], mitoxantrone [Novantrone]) combination is an effective strategy in follicular lymphoma. From October 1999, patients from 12 Italian centers were randomized for a comparative study of FM vs CHOP (cyclophosphamide [Cytoxan, Neosar], doxorubicin HCl, vincristine [Oncovin], prednisone) chemotherapy with the addition of rituximab (Rituxan) in selected cases.
