SAN DIEGO — Paolo Caimi, MD, spoke with Healio about the latest results from the POLARIX trial presented at ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition.
The findings presented at the meeting included 5 years of follow-up data assessing the use of polatuzumab vedotin (Polivy, Genentech) with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and prednisone (Pola-R-CHP) in patients with intermediate or high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Caimi, a physician and clinical investigator at Cleveland Clinic, told Healio that the findings showed “that the progression free survival benefit with [Pola-R-CHP] persists, even though it’s a little bit smaller than what it was originally reported.”
