About this study
Official title: Tandem Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Primary Progressive or Recurrent Hodgkin's Disease (A BMT Study), Phase II
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy with a peripheral stem cell transplant may allow more chemotherapy to be given so that more cancer cells are killed. Tandem (two) autologous stem cell transplants may be an effective treatment for Hodgkin's lymphoma.
PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well tandem stem cell transplantation works in treating patients with progressive or recurrent Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the 2-year progression-free survival of patients with progressive or recurrent Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with tandem autologous stem cell transplantation (2 courses of high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell rescue).
- Determine the response rate in patients treated with this regimen.
- Determine the toxic effects of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
- Salvage therapy (for patients with relapsed disease after achieving a previous complete response): Patients receive at least 2 courses of salvage chemotherapy or radiotherapy. No more than 6 weeks later, patients proceed to autologous hematopoietic stem cell collection.
- Autologous hematopoietic stem cell collection: Patients undergo autologous hematopoietic stem cell collection. Patients with an inadequate number of collected stem cells are removed from the study.
- Pre-transplant salvage radiation: Patients with residual tumor greater than 5 cm after initial salvage therapy undergo involved-field radiotherapy. All patients then proceed to the first preparative regimen.
- First preparative regimen: Patients receive high-dose melphalan IV on day -1.
- First autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT): Patients undergo autologous SCT on day 0. At least 28 days later, patients proceed to second preparative regimen.
- Second preparative regimen: Patients receive 1 of the following preparative regimens:
- Total-body irradiation (TBI)-based regimen: Patients undergo TBI twice daily on days -8 to -5. Patients also receive etoposide IV over 4 hours on day -4 and cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour on day -2.
- Carmustine-based regimen: Patients receive carmustine IV over 2 hours on days -6 to -4, etoposide IV over 4 hours on day -4, and cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour on day -2.
- Second autologous SCT: Patients undergo second autologous SCT on day 0. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 6 months for 2 years and then annually for up to 7 years.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 85 patients will be accrued for this study over 2 years.

Cycle 1 consists of high-dose melphalan followed by infusion of approximately 1.5 million cluster of differentiation 34 positive (CD34+) cells. Cycle 2 consists of either TBI-based or 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU)-based high-dose therapy followed by infusion of at least 2 million CD34+ cells. Receives: Drug: carmustine; Drug: cyclophosphamide; Drug: etoposide; Drug: melphalan; Procedure: autologous-autologous tandem hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; Radiation: radiation therapy |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
2-year Progression-free Survival
Measured from date of randomization to date of first observation of progressive disease, or death due to any cause
Measured: At day 60, then every 6 months for 2 years
Secondary outcomes (3)
Response Rate
Complete Response(CR) is a complete disappearance of all disease with the exception of nodes. No new lesions. previously enlarged organs must have regressed and not be palpable. Bone marrow(BM) must be negative if positive at baseline. Normalization of markers. CR Unconfirmed (CRU) does not qualify for CR above, due to a residual nodal mass or an indeterminate BM. Partial Response(PR) is a 50% decrease in the sum of products of greatest diameters (SPD) for up to 6 identified dominant lesions, including spleenic and hepatic nodules from baseline. No new lesions and no increase in the size of liver, spleen or other nodes.
Measured: At day 60, then every 6 months for 2 years
Overall Survival
Measured from date of registration to date of death due to any cause or last contact
Measured: At day 60, then every 6 months for 2 years, then annually for a total of 7 years
Number of Patients With Grade 3 Through Grade 5 Adverse Events That Are Related to Study Drug
Adverse Events (AEs) are reported by the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0. For each patient, worst grade of each event type is reported. Grade 3 = Severe, Grade 4 = Life-threatening, Grade 5 = Fatal.
Measured: Assessed after cycle 1 high dose therapy, after cycle 2 high dose therapy, and at 1 month and 2 months after the second stem cell infusion

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing carmustine, cyclophosphamide and etoposide in people with Lymphoma, run by SWOG Cancer Research Network at 53 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 1 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 53 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 5 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?
2-year Progression-free Survival (time frame: At day 60, then every 6 months for 2 years). 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 NCT00233987, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 1 Mar 2018.
