Prevention of Cyclophosphamide, Hydroxydaunorubicin (Adriamycin), Oncovin (Vincristine), Prednisone/Prednisolone (CHOP)-Induced Chronic Cardiotoxicity
Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the protective effect of Valsartan on chronic cardiotoxicity induced by CHOP.
Description
Doxorubicin has been one of the most important key drugs in treatment for malignancies. However, its use is limited by dose-dependent cumulative cardiotoxicity. This multi-centers trial was designed to investigate the preventive effect of Valsartan, the angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker (ARB) on chronic cardiotoxicity due to doxorubicin based chemotherapy. Patients with untreated non-Hodgkin's lymphoma who are scheduled to receive at least 6 courses of the standard CHOP (-R) will be randomized by the minimization methods to the treatment group with Valsartan (80mg once daily by oral during entire 6 courses of CHOP) or control group. Cardiac function will be evaluated in detail before and after 3 and 6 courses of CHOP (-R).

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Composite Lymphoma
Two or more distinct types of malignant lymphoid tumors occurring within a single organ or tissue at the same time. It may contain different types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells or both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells.
Lymphoma, Mantle-cell
A form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma having a usually diffuse pattern with both small and medium lymphocytes and small cleaved cells. It accounts for about 5% of adult non-Hodgkin lymphomas in the United States and Europe. The majority of mantle-cell lymphomas are associated with a t(11;14) translocation resulting in overexpression of the CYCLIN D1 gene (GENES, BCL-1).
Lymphoma, Non-hodgkin
Any of a group of malignant tumors of lymphoid tissue that differ from HODGKIN DISEASE, being more heterogeneous with respect to malignant cell lineage, clinical course, prognosis, and therapy. The only common feature among these tumors is the absence of giant REED-STERNBERG CELLS, a characteristic of Hodgkin's disease.
Lymphomatoid Papulosis
Clinically benign, histologically malignant, recurrent cutaneous T-cell lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by an infiltration of large atypical cells surrounded by inflammatory cells. The atypical cells resemble REED-STERNBERG CELLS of HODGKIN DISEASE or the malignant cells of CUTANEOUS T-CELL LYMPHOMA. In some cases, lymphomatoid papulosis progresses to lymphomatous conditions including MYCOSIS FUNGOIDES; HODGKIN DISEASE; CUTANEOUS T-CELL LYMPHOMA; or ANAPLASTIC LARGE-CELL LYMPHOMA.
Lymphoma, Large-cell, Anaplastic
A systemic, large-cell, non-Hodgkin, malignant lymphoma characterized by cells with pleomorphic appearance and expressing the CD30 ANTIGEN. These so-called "hallmark" cells have lobulated and indented nuclei. This lymphoma is often mistaken for metastatic carcinoma and MALIGNANT HISTIOCYTOSIS.
