EFS, is defined as the time from randomization to the earliest occurrence of death due to any cause, disease progression/relapse, initiation of any non-protocol specified subsequent new lymphoma therapy for the treatment of residual disease or Biopsy-proven residual disease at the Month 6 disease assessment or later, regardless of whether subsequent new lymphoma therapy is initiated or not.
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to disease progression or death due to any cause.
EFS:Time from randomization to disease progression (PD), best response of stable disease (SD) up to Day 150, start of new anti-lymphoma therapy including stem cell transplant, or death from any cause. PD=Score 4 (uptake moderately \> liver) or 5 (uptake markedly \> liver and/or new lesions) with increased uptake from baseline; New fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid foci consistent with lymphoma rather than another etiology or in bone marrow; Individual node/lesion abnormal with longest diameter \> 1.5 cm, ≥ 50% increase from nadir; Splenic length increase \> 50% of prior increase beyond baseline or ≥ 2 cm increase if no prior splenomegaly; New/recurrent splenomegaly, progression of non-measurable lesions, new lesion, or new/recurrent bone marrow involvement. KM estimates was used for analysis.
CR rate is defined as the incidence of a CR per the IWG Lugano Classification as determined by study investigators. CR rate: percentage of participants with CR \[complete metabolic response (CMR); complete radiological response (CRR)\]. CMR: positron emission tomography (PET) 5-point scale (5-PS) scores of 1 (no uptake above background), 2 (uptake ≤ mediastinum), 3 (uptake \> mediastinum but ≤ liver) with/without a residual mass); no new lesions; and no evidence of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid disease in bone marrow (BM). CRR: target nodes/nodal masses regressed to ≤ 1.5 cm in longest transverse diameter of lesion (LDi); no extralymphatic sites of disease; absent non-measured lesion (NMLs); organ enlargement regress to normal; no new sites; and bone marrow normal by morphology. 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated by Clopper-Pearson method.
CR Rate is the percentage of participants with CR (complete metabolic response (CMR); complete radiological response (CRR)). CMR: positron emission tomography (PET) 5-point scale (5-PS) scores of 1 (no uptake above background), 2 (uptake ≤ mediastinum), 3 (uptake \> mediastinum but ≤ liver) with/without a residual mass); no new lesions; and no evidence of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid disease in bone marrow (BM).

PR: a ≥ 50% decrease in sum of the product of the diameters (SPD) of up to 6 of the largest dominant nodes or nodal masses; no increase in size of nodes, liver or spleen and no new sites of disease; multiple splenic and hepatic nodules (if present) must regress by ≥ 50% in the SPD; \> 50% decrease in the greatest transverse diameter for single nodules. 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated by Clopper-Pearson method.
