About this study

Official title: Multicenter Randomized Phase II Study of Methotrexate (MTX) and Temozolomide Versus MTX, Procarbazine, Vincristine and Cytarabine for Primary CNS Lymphoma (PCNSL) in the Elderly

The purpose of this study is to evaluate two types of chemotherapy for primary central nervous system lymphoma in the elderly (age older than 60) :

  • Methotrexate, procarbazine, vincristine and cytarabine
  • Methotrexate and temozolomide
Read the detailed description

The aim of the study is to evaluate efficacy and toxicity associated with both protocols in this population, without radiotherapy.

Patients will be randomized to receive one of the two regimens in one of the participating centers. Neuropsychological evaluation will be performed in all patients. Patients will be followed with serial MRIs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Methotrexate and temozolomide and Methotrexate , procarbazine ,vincristine ,cytarabine in people with Lymphoma, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Antonio OMURO, MD,PhD (+ 33(0) 1 42 16 41 60, antonio.omuro@psl.aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (time frame: at one year). 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 NCT00503594, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 30 Jul 2012.
