Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of prophylactic entecavir in HBsAg Positive lymphoma patients treated with rituximab-based immunochemotherapy.
Detailed description
HBsAg Positive lymphoma patients are treated with entecavir when they receive rituximab-based immunochemotherapy. Entecavir 0.5mg daily is administrated from day 1 of immunochemotherapy and/or chemotherapy to 12 months after completing immunochemotherapy and/or chemotherapy.
Interventions
Entecavir 0.5mg daily from day 1 of immunochemotherapy and/or chemotherapy to 12 months after completing immunochemotherapy and/or chemotherapy. In patients with low load of hepatitis B virus DNA(≤2000 IU/ml), rituximab will be administrated at the beginning of entecavir prophylaxis. And in patients with high load of hepatitis B virus DNA(\>2000 IU/ml), rituximab will be administrated when hepatitis B virus DNA decreased to the level of 2000 IU/ml after entecavir prophylaxis.
