| Main Objective: 1. To investigate the efficacy and safety of a high-dose methotrexate-based induction polychemotherapy regimen combined with Rituximab and intraspinal DepoCyte followed by temozolomide maintenance treatment in newly diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma 2. To assess the long term outcome concerning neurotoxicity ;Secondary Objective: ;Primary end point(s): After completion of the induction therapy: Primary end-point: overall survival Secondary end-points: response rate systemic toxicity based on Common Toxicity Criteria neurotoxicity evaluted by MMSE and FIM After completion of all therapy: Primary end-points: overall survival neurotoxicity evaluated by MMSE and FIM Secondary end-points: time to treatment failure time to progression | — |
