About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Multicenter, Single-Arm, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Lenalidomide (Revlimid ®) in Combination With Dexamethasone in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide (Revlimid ®) in combination with dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) can be divided into two general prognostic groups: the indolent lymphomas and the aggressive lymphomas. Indolent lymphomas have a relatively good prognosis, with median survival time as long as 10 years, but they are not usually curable in advanced stages. Aggressive NHL constitutes about half of all cases of NHL in North America and Western Europe. Of the aggressive lymphomas, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type, accounting for up to 30 percent of newly diagnosed cases. The aggressive type of NHL has a shorter natural history; approximately 50-60% of these subjects can be cured with combination chemotherapy regimens. Even with recent advances, many patients with advanced stage DLBCL are not cured with conventional therapy. This leaves a subset of subjects who will eventually relapse or who are refractory to treatment.

Due to the variation in the clinical behavior of the different types of aggressive NHL, it is important to test lenalidomide in DLBCL. Other studies are addressing the activity of lenalidomide in the other types of aggressive lymphomas, as well as in indolent NHL. It is important to test lenalidomide in combination therapy. This study is focused on treating subjects with relapsed or refractory DLBCL using oral lenalidomide in combination with oral dexamethasone.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tumor Response Rate

    Number of participants demonstrating complete or partial tumor response (Cheson B, Horning S, Coiffier B, Shipp M, Fisher R, Connors J, et al, Report of an international workshop to standardize response criteria for non-Hodgkins' lymphoma. J Clin Oncol.1999;17:1244-53).

    Study terminated prematurely. Analysis not conducted.

    Measured: One Year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Tumor Control Rate

    Number of participants demonstrating complete tumor response, partial tumor response, or stable disease.

    Study terminated prematurely. Analysis not conducted.

    Measured: One Year

  2. Duration of Response

    Time from first demonstration of at least a partial response to the first documentation of disease progression, including death due to non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

    Study terminated prematurely. Analysis not conducted.

    Measured: One year

  3. Time to Progression

    Time from the start of study drug therapy to the first documentation of disease progression.

    Study terminated prematurely. Analysis not conducted.

    Measured: One year

  4. Progression-free Survival

    Time from the start of study drug therapy to the first observation of disease progression or death due to any cause.

    Study terminated prematurely. Analysis not conducted.

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CC-5013 (lenalidomide) and dexamethasone in people with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, run by Celgene Corporation at 24 sites in 3 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 2 Sep 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in United States, Australia, Canada. 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 13 Aug 2009). 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?

Tumor Response Rate (time frame: One Year). 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 2 Sep 2009.
