Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: [Eligibility criteria for HBsAg-positive group] HBsAg-positive group is defined as untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who were histopathologically diagnosed between January 2004 and December 2014 at each institution. Inclusion criteria: 1) Histopathologically diagnosed as having DLBCL including histological transformation from indolent lymphoma 2) Confirmed to be seropositive for HBsAg at baseline 3) Confirmed to be CD20-positive lymphoma by immunohistochemistry or flowcytometry 4) Patients who received R-CHOP or R-THP-COP regimen for DLBCL as an initial chemotherapy regardless of steroid use 5) 20 years or older at diagnosis of DLBCL [Eligibility criteria for HBsAg-negative group] HBsAg-negative group is defined as untreated diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who were histopathologically diagnosed between January 2004 and December 2014 at each institution. Inclusion criteria: 1) Confirmed to be seronegative for HBsAg at baseline regardless of anti-HBc or anti-HBs 2) Histopathologically diagnosed as having DLBCL during the same period of HBsAg-positive group (diagnosed within a month of each patient in HBsAg-positive group) 3) Confirmed to be CD20-positive lymphoma by immunohistochemistry or flowcytometry 4) Patients who received R-CHOP or R-THP-COP regimen for DLBCL as an initial chemotherapy regardless of steroid use 5) 20 years or older at diagnosis of DLBCL
