About this study

Official title: Open-Label, One Arm Pilot Investigation of Lenalidomide Therapy for Patients With Relapsed and/or Refractory, Peripheral T-Cell Lymphomas

The purpose of this study is to:

  • assess the effectiveness of lenalidomide for the treatment of patients with relapsed and or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphomas; and,
  • assess the safety of lenalidomide.

There are reports suggesting a therapeutic benefit of thalidomide in patients with refractory and/or relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma's (NHL) which have led to the formal investigation of lenalidomide in the treatment of relapsed NHL's.

Read the detailed description

Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL's) represent a subgroup of Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas with poor prognostic features. Compared to aggressive B-cell lymphomas, PTCL's often present with more advanced disease and sustain less durable remissions following treatment with chemotherapy. With standard anthracycline-based regimens such as CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone), PTCLs achieve inferior 5-year overall survival rates of around 40% compared to aggressive B-cell lymphomas whose 5-year overall survival rates reach 50-60%. While several salvage regimens have been established for B-cell lymphomas with moderate success, the guidelines for patients with relapsed and/or refractory PTCL's are less clear. Several reports suggest that the immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs®) have clinical activity in this setting. The aim of this phase 2 study is to evaluate the activity of lenalidomide in relapsed and/or refractory PTCL's.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Lenalidomide in people with Peripheral T-cell Lymphomas and Adult T-cell Leukemia, run by University of Alabama at Birmingham 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 19 inclusion and 13 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 20 Apr 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 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Closed due to futility with only 1 patient accrued). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Response Rate to lenalidomide (CR,PR and unconfirmed complete responses (time frame: Efficacy assessments every 8 weeks with a final assessment performed at the end of Cycle 6 (wk 24).). 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 20 Apr 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
