The prognosis of advanced-stage diffuse large-cell lymphoma (DLCL) has improved with the use of the third-generation regimens such as methotrexate with leucovorin, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, and bleomycin (MACOP-B). However, different results have been reported. Therefore, we started a cooperative study to confirm the efficacy of MACOP-B. An analysis of prognostic factors was also performed to identify poor-prognosis patients.
