About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of Subtotal Nodal Irradiation Versus Doxorubicin, Vinblastine and Subtotal Nodal Irradiation for Stage I-IIA Hodgkin's Disease

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining radiation therapy with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of radiation therapy with or without doxorubicin and vinblastine in treating patients with stage I or stage II Hodgkin's disease.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Compare progression-free and overall survival of patients with clinical Stage IA/IIA Hodgkin's disease who have not undergone laparotomy and who are randomized to treatment with subtotal nodal irradiation with vs. without 3 courses of doxorubicin/vinblastine. II. Compare the long-term toxicities associated with these treatments, including cardiopulmonary toxicity, secondary malignancies, and infertility. III. Identify subgroups of patients (based on age, gender, tumor histology, number of disease sites, and presence of high neck presentation) that are particularly responsive to these treatments.

OUTLINE: Randomized study. Arm I: Radiotherapy. Subtotal nodal irradiation using megavoltage equipment (4-10 MeV). Arm II: 2-Drug Combination Chemotherapy followed by Radiotherapy. Doxorubicin, DOX, NSC-123127; Vinblastine, VBL, NSC-49842; followed by subtotal nodal irradiation as in Arm I.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: 210 patients/arm will be enrolled over about 7 years.

Nodal RTExperimentalsubtotal nodal irradiation will consist of mantle and periaortic/spleen fields treated sequentially. Total dose 3600-4000 cGy over 20 fractions.
Receives: Radiation: standard subtotal nodal irradiation
Chemotherapy + Nodal RTExperimental3 cycles (28 days each) of chemotherapy (doxorubicin 25 mg/m^2 on days 1 and 15, vinblastine 6 mg/m^2 on days 1 and 15). Four weeks after last cycle, subtotal nodal irradiation (total dose 3600-4000 cGy over 20 fractions) will be given as described for the Nodal RT arm.
Receives: Drug: doxorubicin hydrochloride; Drug: vinblastine; Radiation: standard subtotal nodal irradiation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. progression-free survival

    Measured: every 3 months while on protocol treatment, then every 6 months for 2 years, then annually thereafter

  2. overall survival

    Measured: every 3 months while on protocol treatment, then every 6 months for 2 years, then annually thereafter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing doxorubicin hydrochloride, vinblastine and standard subtotal nodal irradiation in people with Lymphoma, run by SWOG Cancer Research Network at 22 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

progression-free survival (time frame: every 3 months while on protocol treatment, then every 6 months for 2 years, then annually thereafter). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00002495, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Feb 2017.
