Trial summary

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Consolidation Therapy With Lenalidomide (Revlimid®) With or Without Rituximab Followed by Maintenance Therapy With Revlimid® After Autologous/Syngeneic Transplant for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop cancer cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. It is not yet known whether lenalidomide is more effective with or without rituximab in treating chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well lenalidomide works when given with or without rituximab in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who have undergone autologous or syngeneic stem cell transplant.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To evaluate the efficacy of consolidation therapy comprising lenalidomide with or without rituximab followed by maintenance therapy comprising lenalidomide in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or small lymphocytic lymphoma who have undergone autologous or syngeneic stem cell transplantation.

OUTLINE:

  • Consolidation phase: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 treatment groups.
  • Group I: Patients receive oral lenalidomide once daily on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Group II: Patients receive lenalidomide as in group I. Patients also receive rituximab IV once on the day before the start of lenalidomide and then once between days 25-30, 50-55, and 75-80 for a total of 4 doses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Maintenance phase: Beginning 2 months after completion of consolidation therapy, all patients receive oral lenalidomide once daily on days 1-21. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 18 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 28 days and then annually thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy of lenalidomide with or without rituximab as consolidation therapy and lenalidomide as maintenance therapy

  2. Disease-free survival at 2 years after transplant

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Toxicity during consolidation and maintenance therapy as assessed by NCI CTCAE v3.0

  2. Ability to complete planned therapy

  3. Complete hematological remission, including bone marrow IgH remission status as assessed by PCR after consolidation and maintenance therapy

  4. Time to disease progression

  5. Relapse rates

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rituximab and lenalidomide in people with Leukemia and Lymphoma, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Mar 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Efficacy of lenalidomide with or without rituximab as consolidation therapy and lenalidomide as maintenance therapy. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Mar 2015.
