Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Clinical stage I without large tumour mass or clinical stage IIA with fewer than three affected areas (stage-IIB patients are considered suitable, regardless of the number of affected areas) 2. CNS infiltration 3. Transformed lymphoma, although with no previous treatment, as well as other histological subtypes such as mantle cell lymphoma, peripheral T-cell lymphoma and its variants and post-transplant lymphoproliferative syndrome 4. Clinically significant secondary cardiovascular disease 5. Signs of any severe, acute or chronic and active infection 6.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: ?To assess reduced of subclinical cardiotoxicity, determined by differences in LVEF, which involves the incorporation of non-pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (Myocet®) when replacing conventional doxorubicin in the standard R-CHOP regimen (R-COMP) to treat newly diagnosed elderly patients with non-localised DLBCL/follicular lymohoma grade IIIb;Secondary Objective: ? To assess event-free survival, progresion free survival and overall survival at 2 and 5 years after the end of the study treatment in both treatment arms. ? To determine the overall response rate and complete remissions in patients treated with R-CHOP and R-COMP. ? To assess clinical cardiovascular events according to the CTC criteria (version 4.0) of the NCI in both patient groups. ? To determine non-cardiac toxicity according to the CTC criteria (version 4.0) of the NCI in both patient groups. ? To determine and compare the values of troponin, NT-proBNP and LVEF, and establish their correlation with clinical and subclinical cardiotoxicity in both treatment arms.;Primary end point(s): ? Subclinical cardiac toxicity determined by the percentage of patients experiencing a decrease in LEVF determined by echocardiography with final LEVF <55% 30 days after the end of the study treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 30 days after the end of the study treatment | — |

| Secondary end point(s): ? Event free survial, progression free survival and overall survival at 2 and 5 years after the end of the study treatment. ? Overall response rates and complete responses evaluated by the International Harmonization Project for response criteria in lymphoma. ? Rate of cardiac/cardiovascular toxicity according to the CTC criteria (version 4.0) of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) during the treatment and during 5 years after the end of the study treatment. ? No cardiotoxicity according to the CTC criteria (version 4.0) of the NCI during the tratment and during 24 months after the end of the study treatment. ? Cardiotoxicity determined by elevated values of troponin and NT-proBNP and decreased values of LEVF determined during the treatment and during 12 months after the end of the study treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: During the study treatment, at the end of the study tretament and12 months, 24 months and 5 years after the end of the studyr treatment | — |
