Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The prognosis of EBV+ DLBCL is dismal. Previous study showed that high level of PD-L1 expression in EBV+ DLBCL. The investigators therefore design this phase II study to investigate the safety and efficacy of sintilimab (an anti-PD-1 antibody) in combination with R-CHOP in patients with treatment-naive EBV+ DLBCL.
