About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of Bortezomib Plus CHOP Every 2 Weeks in Patients With Advanced Stage Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphomas

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is a most prevalent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Recently the clinical results have been improved with new drugs and new modalities such as cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP) every 2 weeks. Bortezomib is well known to be effective for multiple myeloma and has been being tried for other malignancies including lymphoma. The investigators will incorporate Bortezomib to CHOP every 2 weeks to further improve the clinical efficacy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Intended number of patients: 63 patients in total

  • Phase I: 9 patients for 3 levels
  • Phase II: 50 patients plus 3 patient from Phase I at MTD level
  • Plus 4 patients: considering 5% follow-up loss rate

Study design and methodology:

For phase I, 9 patients; 3 levels of bortezomib (1.0, 1.3 and 1.6 mg/m2), 3 patients at each dose level.

If escalation of bortezomib beyond 1.0 mg/m2 is not possible, the trial will be stopped.

For phase II, 53 patients (3 from phase I at MTD level); Reject when complete response rate equal or less than 12/19 or 37/53 by Simon two-stage optimal phase II design.

Treatments:

  • Bortezomib:

For phase I, 3 dose levels (1.0, 1.3 or 1.6 mg/m2), days 1 and 4, every 2 weeks.

For phase II, suggested dose of Bortezomib through phase I, days 1 and 4, every 2 weeks.

  • CHOP2: cyclophosphamide 750mg/ m2 day 1, vincristine 1.4 mg/ m2 (max. 2 mg) day 1, doxorubicin 50 mg/ m2 day 1, prednisolone 100 mg days 1-5, every 2 weeks.
  • G-CSF: Lenograstim 5 microgram/kg subcutaneously days 4-13 every 2 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Bortezomib, Cyclophosphamide and Doxorubicin in people with Lymphoma, Large-Cell, Diffuse and Lymphoma, B-Cell, run by Asan Medical Center at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 14 Mar 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?

Number of Patients Who Achieved Complete Response (time frame: 14 weeks). 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 15 Mar 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
