- Requires treatment with proton pump inhibitors (e.g., omeprazole, esomeprazole, lansoprazole, dexlansoprazole, rabeprazole, or pantoprazole). Patients receiving proton pump inhibitors who switch to short-acting H2-receptor antagonists or antacids are eligible for enrolment into this study.
Estudio de fase 3, aleatorizado, doble ciego y controlado con placebo, que evalúa la eficacia y seguridad de acalabrutinib más rituximab, ciclofosfamida, doxorrubicina, vincristina y prednisona (R-CHOP) frente a placebo más R-CHOP en sujetos ≤65 años de edad con linfoma difuso de células B grandes de centro no germinal no tratado previamente.
