0 mg ALIQOPA and 12 patients received 0.8 mg/kg equivalent ALIQOPA administered as a 1-hour intravenous infusion on Days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day treatment cycle on an intermittent schedule (three weeks on and one week off). Treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumor response was assessed according to the International Working Group response criteria for malignant lymphoma. Efficacy based on overall response rate (ORR) was assessed by an Independent Review Committee. Efficacy results from CHRONOS-1 are summarized in Table 5.

Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Patient Information).
• Infections – Advise patients that ALIQOPA can cause serious infections that may be fatal. Advise patients to immediately report symptoms of infection [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)]. • Hyperglycemia – Advise patients that an infusion-related increase in blood glucose may occur, and to notify their healthcare provider of any symptoms such as pronounced hunger, excessive thirst, headaches, or frequently urinating. Blood glucose levels should be well controlled prior to infusion [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )]. • Hypertension – Advise patients that an infusion-related increase in blood pressure m
