About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Velcade and Temsirolimus for Relapsed or Refractory B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

The investigators want to find out if the drugs Velcade and temsirolimus given together are effective in treating cancer. Velcade and temsirolimus are each FDA approved individually for certain types of cancer (Velcade for multiple myeloma and mantle cell lymphoma, and temsirolimus for renal cell carcinoma) but are not currently approved in combination for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The investigators are trying to find out if giving these 2 drugs together will improve the period of time that the patient's cancer is stopped or slowed from growing and causing symptoms.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response Rate

    The primary objective of this study is to determine whether Velcade in combination with temsirolimus provides benefit to subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma as assessed by overall response rate (ORR) to therapy. ORR is the sum of patients with a Complete Response and Partial Response to therapy. Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete REsponse (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  2. Progression Free Survival

    The primary objective of this study is to determine whether Velcade in combination with temsirolimus provides benefit to subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma as assessed by progression-free survival (PFS).

    Measured: Up to 60 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Safety of This Regimen

    Safety of the regimen will be measured by frequency and severity of adverse events.

    Measured: Up to 36 months

  2. Complete Response Rate

    The complete response rate (CR) to therapy as defined by International Lymphoma Response Criteria.

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  3. Tolerability of the Regimen

    Tolerability of the regimen is measured by the number of subjects able to complete the therapy as planned.

    Measured: Up to 36 months

  4. Duration of Response

    Duration of Response is how long a response to therapy is held before a subject has progressive disease.

    Measured: Up to 60 months

  5. Overall Survival

    Length of time from enrollment until death.

    Measured: Up to 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Velcade and Temsirolimus in people with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison at 18 sites 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 28 inclusion and 0 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 13 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites 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 Aug 2017). 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?

Overall Response Rate (time frame: Up to 60 months). 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 13 Dec 2019.
