PROCESS: Prospective Cohort Study With Central Nervous System Evaluation in Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is to evaluate the incidence of central nervous system (CNS) relapse or metastasis in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |

N/A |
Detailed Description
We dichotomize patients according to the risk of CNS involvement. Then, we perform CNS evaluation in patients at risk of CNS involvement. We prospectively monitor whether CNS relapse or metastasis occurs in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
