Trial summary

About 60% of patients with DLBCL can be cured with a chemotherapy program. It is called RCHOP-21 (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone). It is given once every 3 weeks, for 18 weeks. Each three weeks is a cycle. Some factors predict that you may not be cured with R-CHOP-21. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Risk-Adapted Therapy for Patients With Untreated Age-Adjusted International Prognostic Index Low-Intermediate Risk, High-Intermediate Risk, or High Risk Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma

About 60% of patients with DLBCL can be cured with a chemotherapy program. It is called RCHOP-21 (Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Prednisone). It is given once every 3 weeks, for 18 weeks. Each three weeks is a cycle. Some factors predict that you may not be cured with R-CHOP-21. The most common ones are:

  • Stage - how much DLBCL, PMBL, or FL3B you have
  • LDH - a blood chemistry marker; and
  • Whether you can do your normal daily activities. (performance status) We think that the best way to cure more patients with poor risk factors is to add new treatment to R-CHOP. You will get different chemotherapy after 4 cycles. This type of treatment is called risk-adapted therapy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Etoposide, carboplatin, ifosfamideDrug

    Patients in consolidation A will receive three drugs in a regimen called ICE. You will have 3 cycles. Each new cycle begins 2 to 3 weeks after the last one.

  • Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, CarboplatinDrug

    It consists of four drugs in a regimen called augmented RICE (augRICE). It is given every 3 weeks for 2 cycles.

  • Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, Carboplatin, Stem Cell Collection, Mitoxantrone, Cyclophosphamide and etoposide, CarmustineDrug

    It consists of four drugs in a regimen called augRICE. It is given every 3 weeks for 2 cycles. After the rituximab on day 3, you will then be admitted to the hospital for 2 to 3 nights.

    Part 2: Stem Cell Collection, Part 3: High dose chemoradiotherapy and stem cell transplant. Your doctor may want you to get radiation therapy. If so, it will start 2 weeks before the highdose chemotherapy. This regimen is called CBV-N chemotherapy. It is given by vein in the hospital.

Consolidation CExperimentalInduction: RR-CHOP-14 Chemotherapy for Three Cycles Each cycle lasts approximately 14 days. A total of 3 cycles of RR-CHOP-14 will be given. One cycle of CHOP will follow. Consolidation C: Patients with biopsy proven disease after induction therapy. Patients whose bone marrow remain positive at interim restaging will have the option of getting an allogeneic[m3] stem cell transplant, in lieu of an ASCT, if they have an acceptable HLA match donor. The allogeneic[m4] stem cell transplant regimen will be decided by the MSK Bone Marrow Transplant Service.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Survival at 1 Year

    Overall survival from the start of induction therapy conditional on attaining either a negative FDG-PET or a negative biopsy at the interim evaluation.

  2. Proliferation Marker [18F] Fluorothymidine (FLT) is Significantly Predictive of Progression Free Survival/PFS Via a Log Rank Test.

    Obtain preliminary data on potential clinical usefulness of the proliferation marker [18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) in pts with diffuse large cell lymphoma, using combined (FDG-PET/CT). 18F-FLT uptake by visual analysis (stratified as grades 1-3 vs grades 4-5)

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 10 years

  3. Proliferation Marker [18F] Fluorothymidine (FLT) Significantly Predictive of Overall Survival/OS Via a Log Rank Test.

    Obtain preliminary data on potential clinical usefulness of the proliferation marker [18F] fluorothymidine (FLT) in pts with diffuse large cell lymphoma, using combined (FDG-PET/CT). 18F-FLT uptake by visual analysis (stratified as grades 1-3 vs grades 4-5)

    Measured: Through the completion of study, up to 10 years

  4. To Determine the Role of CT Volumetric Analysis Compared to Standard Unidimensional CT in This Patient Population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Etoposide, carboplatin, ifosfamide, Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, Carboplatin and Rituximab, Ifosfamide, Etoposide, Carboplatin, Stem Cell Collection, Mitoxantrone, Cyclophosphamide and etoposide, Carmustine in people with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering 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 19 inclusion and 6 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 21 Jun 2022. 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 21 Jun 2022). 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?

2-year PFS From the Start of Induction Therapy Conditional (time frame: 2 years). 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 NCT00712582, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 21 Jun 2022.
