  1. In histologic type, T cell lineage includes anaplastic large cell lymphoma, angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma, peripheral T cell lymphoma, and NK/T cell lymphoma. Except of follicular lymphoma as an indolent type of NHL, all other histologic subclasses represent aggressive type.
  2. Performance status was determined according to the criteria, ECOG score.
  3. IPI: international prognostic index
  4. CHOP regimen includes cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone. R-CHOP is a combination regimen of CHOP with the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, rituximab.
