Key clinical point: The risk for a second primary malignancy (SPM) was higher in patients with indolent B‐cell lymphoma (iBCL) treated with bendamustine/rituximab (BR) vs rituximab monotherapy and rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (RCHOP) or rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone (RCVP) or rituximab, pirarubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisolone (RTHPCOP).
Major finding: The cumulative incidence of SPM was significantly higher among patients receiving BR vs rituximab monotherapy (P < .01) or RCHOP/RCVP/RTHPCOP (P < .0001). The 5‐year cumulative incidence rates with BR, rituximab monotherapy, and RCHOP/RCVP/RTHPCOP were 18.1%, 12.5%, and 12.9%, respectively.
Study details: This retrospective observational study included 5234 adult patients with iBCL who received rituximab monotherapy (n = 780), RCHOP/RCVP/RTHPCOP (n = 2298), or BR (n = 2156).
