About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Flavopiridol (NSC 649890) Administered as a 72-Hour Continuous Infusion Every 2 Weeks in Patients With Previously Treated Intermediate and High Grade Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Including Mantle Cell Lymphoma

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of flavopiridol in treating patients with recurrent intermediate-grade or high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or mantle cell lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the objective response rate to flavopiridol by patients with previously treated intermediate and high grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

II. Determine the toxicity of flavopiridol administered as a continuous infusion every 2 weeks in these patients.

III. Study the pharmacokinetics of flavopiridol in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open label, multi-institutional study.

Patients receive treatment on an outpatient basis. Flavopiridol is administered as a continuous infusion over 72 hours every 2 weeks. Patients receive a minimum of 4 cycles of therapy unless unacceptable toxicity or disease progression occurs. Patients are followed until death.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing alvocidib in people with Lymphoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 10 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 5 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Feb 2013.
