About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of Lenalidomide Plus Rituximab in Patients With Previously Untreated Mantle Cell Lymphoma

This is a phase II, multicenter study to determine the efficacy and safety of first-line lenalidomide plus rituximab therapy in patients with mantle cell lymphoma who have received no prior systemic therapy.

Read the detailed description

Induction Phase (week 1 - 48):

  • Lenalidomide will be given at 20 mg/day for days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle for 12 cycles. If no excess toxicity is observed the dose will be increased to 25 mg/day.
  • Rituximab will be administered at 375 mg/m2 per dose for a total of 9 doses. The first 4 doses will be administered weekly starting on day 1 of lenalidomide (e.g. days 1, 8, 15 and 22). Subsequent rituximab doses will be administered for one dose each at weeks 12, 20, 28, 36 and 44.

Maintenance Phase (week 49 - progression of disease):

  • Lenalidomide will be given at 15 mg/day for days 1-21 of a 28-day cycle.
  • Rituximab at 375 mg/m2 per dose will be administered for one dose every 8 weeks, starting at week 52.

Response Assessment

  • Year 1-2: Conventional restaging CT scan (or MRI) with IV contrast every 3 months from cycle 1 day 1 of the study.
  • Year 3 onwards: Conventional restaging CT scan (or MRI) with IV contrast every 6 months until progression.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response Rate

    The primary endpoint of overall response rate will be estimated and a 95% confidence interval will be estimated via binomial proportions.

    Measured: 30 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Participants With Progression-free Survival

    Secondary endpoints of progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and time to the next treatment will be assessed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.PFS will be defined as the time from the first treatment day until objective or symptomatic progression or death. The outcome measure is the number of participants who achieved PFS.

    Measured: 10 years

  2. Number of Participants With Overall Survival

    Secondary endpoints of progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and time to next treatment will be assessed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Overall survival will be defined as the time from first treatment day until death.

    The outcome measures is the number of participants who achieved OS.

    Measured: 10 years

  3. Time to Next Treatment

    Median amount of time (in months) from start of study treatment to next treatment

    Measured: 10 years

  4. Safety as Measured by Number of Subjects Who Experience an Adverse Event While on Study Treatment

    Measured: 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing lenalidomide and rituximab in people with Mantle Cell Lymphoma, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell University at 4 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 20 inclusion and 11 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 16 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 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 7 Apr 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: 30 months). 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 NCT01472562, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 16 Jul 2024.
