High-Dose Chlorambucil and Dexamethasone for Relapsed Non-Hodgkinʼs Lymphomas

Abstract
Twenty patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma were treated with high-dose chlorambucil (14 mg/m2 every 6 hours for 6 doses) and dexamethasone (40 mg/day for 5 days). There was a 45% response rate with 17% complete responses. The median duration of complete response was 7 months. The regimen was well tolerated and had minimal toxicity.
