Trial summary

We now propose to investigate the combination of CHOP-Rituxan plus PEG-Filgrastim (PEG-filgrastim) and GM-CSF. PEG-Filgrastim would be given in order to allow us to administer the chemotherapy courses every 2 weeks with the practical advantage of requiring only one dose of PEG-filgrastim instead of daily doses of… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Protocol CCAM 05-02 " Phase I-II Study of Dose Dense of PEG Filgrastim and GM-CSF as Support for Dose Desnse CHOP-R Front Line Therapy for Aggressive Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma"

We now propose to investigate the combination of CHOP-Rituxan plus PEG-Filgrastim (PEG-filgrastim) and GM-CSF. PEG-Filgrastim would be given in order to allow us to administer the chemotherapy courses every 2 weeks with the practical advantage of requiring only one dose of PEG-filgrastim instead of daily doses of G-CSF.

Read the detailed description

1.1 Primary Objective:

  1. To identify the ideal dose of the combination of CHOP-R with PEG-Filgrastim (Neulasta) using first a fixed dose of Neulasta and an escalating dose of GM-CSF (Leukine) up to 250 mcg. When that dose is reached, if possible, the dose of Neulasta will be increased stepwise. CHOP-R will be delivered every 14 days at a fixed standard dose with dose adjustments of PEG-Filgrastim and GM-CSF upwards and downwards according to nadir or zenith blood counts. 1.2 Secondary Objective:
  2. To generate preliminary pilot data as to the effectiveness of the regimen in inducing very early remissions as measured by the CT-PET scan technique.
Being tested
Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine and Prednisone

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine and PrednisoneDrug

    Also called Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan), Doxorubicin (Adryamicin), Vincristine (Oncovin), Prednisone

    Rituximab will be administered on day 1 of courses 1-6 at 375 mg/m2 concurrently with CHOP-R.All patients will receive antiemetics priorchemotherapy.Courses will be repeated every 14 days.If blood counts don't allow re-treatment on day 14 the counts will be repeated at least twice per week until recovery allows re-treatment.The aim is to achieve a dose that will be as close as possible to 250 mcg and that will result in grade 0 or grade 1A or 1B toxicity at the most. The dose of PEG-Filgrastim will initially be fixed at 3 mg until dose level +3 is reached (which includes 250 mcg Leukine) at which time the dose of Neulasta will be escalated if necessary. All patients will receive Neulasta as a subcutaneous injection on the day 3.

What is being measured

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine and Prednisone in people with Lymphoma and Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Fernando Cabanillas at 1 site in Puerto Rico.

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 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 7 Feb 2012. 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 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 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?

Phase I-II Study of Dose Dense of PEG-Filgrastim and GM-CSF combined with CHOP-R (time frame: up to 3 years). 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 7 Feb 2012.
