About this study

Official title: A Two-Arm, Non-Randomized, Multicenter, Phase 2 Study of VELCADE (Bortezomib) in Combination With Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, and Prednisone With or Without Doxorubicin Followed by Rituximab Maintenance in Patients With Relapsed Follicular Lymphoma.

This is a phase 2, two-arm, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter study evaluating the safety and efficacy of 2 VELCADE-containing regimens. Patients will be treated with either a combination of VELCADE, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and prednisone (VELCADE-R-CAP) or a combination of VELCADE, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone (VELCADE-R-CP) based on investigator preference. Following completion of the treatment period, patients will receive maintenance therapy with rituximab up to a maximum of 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Complete Response (CR)

    Disappearance of all evidence of disease assessed by computed tomography (CT) and PET (position-emission tomography) according to the revised International Working Group (IWG) Criteria.

    Measured: 30 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants With Overall Response (OR)

    OR = Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)according to the revised International Working Group (IWG) Criteria.

    CR is the disappearance of all evidence of disease assessed by CT and PET. PR is the regression of measurable disease and no new sites assessed by CT and PET.

    Measured: 30 weeks

  2. Percentage of Participants With Progression-free Survival (PFS) at 1 Year

    PFS was defined as the time from the first dose to the date of progressive disease (PD)/relapse or death, whichever comes first. For a participant who had not progressed/relapsed or died, PFS was censored at the last response assessment that was stable disease (failure to attain complete response/partial response or PD or better).

    Measured: Assessed at at the end of Cycle 2, at end of treatment visit, and every 12± 1 weeks for the first year (4 visits) until PD

  3. Duration of Response

    Time (in months) from the first documentation of a response (CR or partial response [PR]) to the date of first documentation of progressive disease or relapse from complete response.

    CR is defined as disappearance of all evidence of disease assessed by CT or PET; PR is defined as regression of measurable disease and no new sites assessed by CT or PET according to the revised International Working Group (IWG) Criteria.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Number of Patients Who Experienced at Least One Serious Adverse Event

    Measured: From completion of informed consent through 30 days after the last dose of study drug

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rituximab, cyclophosphamide and doxorubicin in people with Relapsed Follicular Lymphoma, run by Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 43 sites in 2 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 6 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 29 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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 Apr 2013). 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 Patients With Complete Response (CR) (time frame: 30 weeks). 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 NCT00715208, 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 29 Apr 2013.
