Brief Summary  
Prospective, non-interventional study with primary data collection. This study will evaluate the safety of polatuzumab vedotin in the treatment of transplant ineligible patients with R/R DLBCL in the real-world setting of common clinical practice in India. This study will include patients that have received at least one dose of polatuzumab vedotin
according to currently approved indication in transplant ineligible R/R DLBCL in India. Patients will be treated, followed, and monitored by their physicians according to local clinical practice. There are no specific visits planned by protocol. However, baseline (first dose of study treatment) and follow up data will be gathered from the medical records at the moment of inclusion in this study up to 8 weeks after completing the treatment or receiving last dose. Data will be collected prospectively and/or retrospectively from the medical records. Patients included in the study are expected to be followed up 8 weeks after receiving last dose (observational period) unless death, lost to follow-up or withdrawal of consent, whichever occurs first.
