About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Revlimid in Combination With Rituximab as Initial Treatment for Patients With Indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL)

This phase II trial studies how well lenalidomide works in combination with rituximab in treating participants with stage III-IV non-Hodgkin lymphoma that is growing slowly. Lenalidomide is designed to change the body's immune system. It may also interfere with the development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth, which may prevent the growth of cancer cells. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving lenalidomide and rituximab may work better in participants with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the overall response rate of lenalidomide in combination with rituximab in previously untreated indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the toxicity of lenalidomide in combination with rituximab in previously untreated indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

OUTLINE: Participants are assigned to 1 of 2 drug schedules.

SCHEDULE A: Participants receive lenalidomide orally (PO) on days 1-21 and rituximab intravenously (IV) over 4-8 hours on day 1 of courses 1-12. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

SCHEDULE B: Participants receive lenalidomide PO on days 2-22 and rituximab IV over 4-8 hours on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of course 1 and on day 1 of all subsequent courses. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up every 6 months.

Being tested
Lenalidomide, Rituximab

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Best Overall Disease Response

    Will be monitored simultaneously for each of the subgroups separately using the Bayesian approach of Thall, Simon, Estey. Summary statistics will be provided for continuous variables. Frequency tables will be used to summarize categorical variables. Logistic regression will be will be utilized to assess the effect of patient prognostic factors on the response rate.

    Measured: At the end of 3 courses (84 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lenalidomide and Rituximab in people with Ann Arbor Stage III Grade 1 Follicular Lymphoma and Ann Arbor Stage III Grade 2 Follicular Lymphoma, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site 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 12 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 20 Oct 2021. 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 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 29 Sep 2021). 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 Participants With Best Overall Disease Response (time frame: At the end of 3 courses (84 days)). 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 NCT00695786, 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 20 Oct 2021.
