About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Study of Comparing Radiotherapy Alone With Concurrent Chemoradiation in Patients With Low Risk NK/T-cell Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to prove the superiority of concurrent chemoradiation compared with radiotherapy alone in patients with low risk NK/T-cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Radiotherapy alone is commonly used in NK/T-cell lymphoma without adverse risk including lymph node involvement, local invasion, B symptoms and high LDH level. Recently, methotrexate was prove to be a radiosensitizer in NK/T-cell lymphoma cells. Therefore, the investigators aim to verify the superiority and safety of weekly methotrexate in combination with radiotherapy in a randomized phase II study.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Radiotherapy alone and Concurrent chemoradiation in people with Extranodal NK/T-cell Lymphoma, Nasal Type, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

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 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2013. 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 China. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: unexpected high grade of mucositis observed). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

3-year Progression-free survival (time frame: 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 5 Mar 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
