Trial summary

RATIONALE: Photopheresis allows patient white blood cells to be treated with ultraviolet (UV) light and drugs outside the body to inactivate T cells. Pentostatin may suppress the immune system and reduce the chance of developing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following bone marrow transplantation. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Reduced Intensity Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation for the Treatment of Relapsed Non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Photopheresis allows patient white blood cells to be treated with ultraviolet (UV) light and drugs outside the body to inactivate T cells. Pentostatin may suppress the immune system and reduce the chance of developing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following bone marrow transplantation. Combining photopheresis with pentostatin and total-body irradiation may be effective in killing cancer cells before bone marrow transplantation.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving photophoresis together with pentostatin and total-body irradiation as a reduced-intensity regimen before allogeneic bone marrow transplantation works in treating patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's or Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the rate of stable engraftment of donor cells in patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's or Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with a reduced toxicity conditioning regimen followed by allogeneic (sibling or unrelated) bone marrow transplantation.
  • Determine the extent and duration of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the 100-day overall survival and long-term progression-free survival of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Evaluate the feasibility of collection of molecular chimerism studies at baseline, days 30, 100, 6 months and one and two years and at relapse.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

  • Conditioning regimen: Patients undergo extracorporeal photopheresis using methoxsalen and UV light on 2 consecutive days between days -7 to -4. Patients receive pentostatin intravenously (IV) continuously on days -3 to -2 and undergo total body irradiation on day -1.
  • Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation: Patients undergo infusion of allogeneic bone marrow or stem cells on day 0.
  • Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis: Patients receive oral or IV cyclosporine beginning on day -1 and continuing until 6 months after transplantation, oral mycofenolate mofetil beginning on day 100 and continuing for 1 year, and methotrexate IV on days 1 and 3.

Patients are followed at day 100, every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 2 years, and then annually for 2 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 36 patients will be accrued for this study within 1.8 years.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Extracorporeal PhotopheresisProcedure or surgery

    Also called extracorporeal photochemotherapy

    Day -7 to -4: Extracorporeal Photopheresis may be given as an outpatient therapy on two consecutive days any time between days -7 to -4. This must be performed on UVAR or XTS photopheresis machines (Therakos, Inc.) according to standard procedure as per manufacturer's guidelines.

  • PentostatinDrug

    Day -1: TBI 400 cGy total dose given in two 200cGy doses. Patients who have received TBI for a previous transplant or radiation as part of previous treatment for a lymphoid malignancy will receive only 200 cGy in 1 dose.

  • Allogeneic bone marrow transplantationProcedure or surgery

    Also called allogeneic stem cell transplantation

    Day 0: Infusion of unmanipulated allogeneic bone marrow or stem cells. Minimum cell dose of 2 x 106 CD34 cells/kg recipient and no more than 10 x 10^6 CD34/kg

    Also called Cellcept,, mycophenolic acid,, Lilly-68618,, RS-61443,

    At day 100 MMF will be introduced at a dose of 250 mg po BID and cyclosporine or tacrolimus will be tapered according to the discretion of the investigator. The dosage will be escalated to a maximum of 2 g/d at the discretion of the attending physician and will be tapered and discontinued at 12 months if there is no active cGVHD. Doses should be given on an empty stomach

  • Methotrexate (MTX)Drug

    Also called Methotrexate sodium,, MTX,, Mexate,, Mexate-AQ,

    The dose of Methotrexate is based on the corrected ideal body weight for patients with > 33% above ideal weight.

    Day +1 MTX 15 mg/m² IV push; Day +3 MTX 10 mg/m² IV push (May be omitted if patient develops mouth sores.)

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of Participants With Successful Engraftment

    Measured: Assessed daily during inpatient stay

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 100-day Overall Survival

    Proportion of patients who survived 100 days or more after enrolled on the study

    Measured: Assessed at least twice a week for the first 60 days and weekly until day 100.

  2. Progression-free Survival

    Progression-free survival was defined as time from enrollment to disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Patients who did not have progression-free survival events were censored at last date of disease assessment.

    Measured: Assessed day 100 post transplant and every 3 months during year 1, every 6 months during years 2-3, then every 12 months during years 4-5 or through diagnosis of disease progression

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Extracorporeal Photopheresis, Pentostatin and Total body irradiation (TBI) in people with Lymphoma, run by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group at 19 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?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Feb 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Proportion of Participants With Successful Engraftment (time frame: Assessed daily during inpatient stay). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 28 Jun 2023.
