Trial summary

Newly diagnosed DLCL patients will have baselne FDG-PET as part of initial staging (PET-1). Patients will then undergo 2 cycles of chemotherapy with R/CHOP. 14 to 21 days following cycle 2 of R/CHOP, patients will undergo repeat FDG-PET scan (PET-2). They will then complete therapy as planned. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Early Response Assessment in Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Using 18-fluoro-2-deoxyglycose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET)

Newly diagnosed DLCL patients will have baselne FDG-PET as part of initial staging (PET-1). Patients will then undergo 2 cycles of chemotherapy with R/CHOP. 14 to 21 days following cycle 2 of R/CHOP, patients will undergo repeat FDG-PET scan (PET-2). They will then complete therapy as planned. Following completion of therapy, standard response assessment will be performed, including CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis and FDG-PET scan (PET-3).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University 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 5 inclusion and 2 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 May 2018. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

evaluating the predictive value of a positive PET scan early in the course of standard chemotherapy (time frame: after 2 cycles of chemotherapy). 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 29 May 2018.
