You may be able to join if
- Patients aged 70-74 who are determined to be unfit or frail by the Cumulative Illness Rating Scale-Geriatric (CIRS-G) score with 5-8 comorbid conditions scored 2 or more than 1 comorbidity scored 3-4 are allowed.
- Newly diagnosed, untreated, biopsy-proven CD20 positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (including high-grade B-cell lymphoma and T-cell/histiocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma). Patients with discordant bone marrow (i.e., involved by low-grade/indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma) are eligible. Patients with transformed DLBCL from underlying low-grade disease are eligible. Patients with composite DLBCL and concurrent low-grade lymphoma are eligible. Patients with prior treatment for low-grade NHL with non-anthracycline based regimens are eligible.
- a. Short-course prednisone or equivalent steroid for symptom management is allowable for up to seven days.
- Measurable disease by positron emission tomography (PET) / computed tomography (CT) using the Lugano criteria (lymph node >1.5 cm or extranodal site >1.0 cm).
- Adequate biospecimen sample that meets current Adaptive Clonality ID Test specimen requirements for DLBCL.
- a. Note: the preferred ID specimen type is a formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) lymph node biopsy, either FFPE slides or scrolls, targeting 40 microns of material.
- Left ventricular ejection fraction ≥50% by echocardiography or multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan.
- Karnofsky Performance Score ≥50 or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scan 0-2.
- Ann Arbor Stage II bulky, III, or IV disease.
- Minimum life expectancy greater than 3 months (should be explicitly documented by the enrolling investigator).
- Negative HIV test. Individuals with a positive HIV test at screening are eligible provided that, prior to enrollment, they are stable on antiretroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks, have a CD4 count ≥200/µL, and have an undetectable viral load, and have not had a history of opportunistic infection attributable to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) within the last 12 months.
- For patients with hepatitis B virus antigen (HBsAg) or core antibody (HBcAb) seropositivity, patients must have a negative hepatitis B viral load and an appropriate prophylaxis plan must be in place during chemotherapy therapy treatment. For all patients that are hepatitis B core antibody positive, they should take entecavir prophylaxis (0.5 mg by mouth daily) until 1 year from completion of chemotherapy. Hepatitis B viral load should be checked on these patients prior to starting chemotherapy and every 3 months thereafter if initial hepatitis B viral load is negative (±1 week if chemotherapy cycle is delayed). If hepatitis B viral load is positive, hepatology or ID referral is recommended, and hepatitis B viral load should be checked monthly and every 3 months for 12 months after end of treatment.
- For patients with hepatitis C Ab positivity, a viral load must be checked and negative for enrollment.
- Negative SARS-CoV-2 antigen or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test within 7 days prior to enrollment.
- Had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine approved or authorized for emergency use by the FDA.
- Intrathecal chemotherapy for central nervous system prophylaxis can only be given at the discretion of the primary oncologist.
- a. Note: patients who received high-dose methotrexate are not eligible for the study.
- For male participants: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraceptive methods, and agree to refrain from donating sperm, as defined below:
- With a female partner of childbearing potential or pregnant female partners, male participants must remain abstinent or use a condom plus an additional contraceptive method that together result in a failure rate of <1% per year during the treatment period and for 6 months after the final dose of Mosun-Pola-SD-CHP. Male participants must refrain from donating sperm during this same period.
- The reliability of sexual abstinence should be evaluated in relation to the duration of the clinical trial and the preferred and usual lifestyle of the individual. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, or postovulation methods) and withdrawal are not adequate methods of contraception. If required per local guidelines or regulations, locally recognized adequate methods of contraception and information about the reliability of abstinence will be described in the Informed Consent Form.
- Ability to understand a written informed consent document, and the willingness to sign it.
- In the opinion of the enrolling investigator, subject must be deemed able to comply with the study intervention.

- Administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks before start of study therapy or anticipation that such a live, attenuated vaccine will be required during the study.
