|---|---|
| Secondary Objective: To confirm previous preliminary findings that the matabolism of cyclophosphamide differs between those patients with recurrent disease and those who remain disease free after treatment. To identify those patients who will benefit from standard therapy prior to or during early treatment as distinct from those patients who are identified as being at high risk of recurrence. To obtain pharmacokinetic/pharmacogenetic information which could be used in future studies to optimise the treatment of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. ;Main Objective: To test the hypothesis that inital response of B-cell non-Hodkin's lymphoma is determined by metabolic and pharmacogenetic factors relating to cyclophosphamide.;Primary end point(s): To identify those patients who will benefit from standard therapy prior to or during early treatment. Those patients who are identified as being at risk of recurrence may be offered treatment modification or alternative therapy in future studies. | — |
