CHO(E)P, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin (etoposide), and prednisone; NLG-MCL2/MCL3 protocol Nordic lymphoma group: mantle cell lymphoma 2 and 3 protocol containing dose-intensified cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and prednisone in combination with rituximab alternating high-dose cytarabine.
12 out of 16 patients received rituximab in the CHOP/cytarabine group; 23 out of 38 in the CHOP/CHOEP/COP group; 1 out of 4 in the fludarabine/cyclophosphamide group, and all patients in the bendamustine group.
Either R-bendamustine alternating with R-cytarabine, or unspecified chemotherapy; detailed frequencies not shown in subgroups due to cell count <4.
