Trial summary

Peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a rare hematologic disease. Five-year overall survival (OS) of PTCL patients (pts) ranges between 20 and 30%. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-STC) may have a curative role for these pts but its toxicity is high when myeloablative conditioning is used. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Intensive Chemo-immunotherapy as First-line Treatment in Adult Patients With Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL)

Peripheral T cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a rare hematologic disease. Five-year overall survival (OS) of PTCL patients (pts) ranges between 20 and 30%. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-STC) may have a curative role for these pts but its toxicity is high when myeloablative conditioning is used. Reduced intensity conditionings (RIC) can decrease transplant related toxicity and mortality. The investigators have recently proved feasibility and potential efficacy of a RIC regimen in relapsed PTCL patients.

We want to investigate whether it is possible to improve the outcome of alk negative PTCL pts, stage II-IV at diagnosis, by intensifying the therapeutic approach.

The intensification will be obtained by combining intensive chemotherapy, alemtuzumab (anti-CD52 humanised antibody) and auto- or allo-SCT in pts aged between 18 and 60 years (Clinical Study A) or adding alemtuzumab to standard chemotherapy (CHOP) in pts aged between 61 and 70 years(Clinical Study B).

Read the detailed description

Inclusion criteria Clin A

  • Age ≥18 < or =60 years (patients older than 60 years are excluded because of the intensive chemotherapy and transplant procedures)
  • Histologically proven diagnosis of PTCL, including the following categories: PTCL-U (peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified), AILD-T (angioimmunoblastic-like T-cell lymphoma), ALKneg ALCL (ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma),intestinal T - NHL
  • Advanced stage disease (stage II-IV) or stage I and aaIPI score ≥ 2
  • Written informed consent

Inclusion criteria Clin B

  • Age >60 and ≤75 years (patients older than 75 years are excluded because of the intensive chemo-immunotherapy program)
  • Histological proven diagnosis of PTCL, including the following categories: PTCL-U (peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified), AILD-T (angioimmunoblastic-like T-cell lymphoma), ALKneg ALCL (ALK-negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma), intestinal T - NHL
  • Advanced-stage disease (stage II-IV) or stage I and aaIPI score ≥ 2
  • Informed written consent

In clinical study A (Clin A) we are planning to evaluate the efficacy and the feasibility of an intensified chemo-immunotherapy program including auto-SCT or RIC allo-SCT in advanced stage PTCL pts ≥ 18 and < or = 60 years.

In clinical study B (Clin B) we intend to verify the efficacy and the feasibility of a combined immuno-chemotherapy approach in a subset of elderly pts aged > 60 and < or = 75 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy

    number of clinical responses

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. evaluation of OS (overall survival)

    OS time is calculated from patients enrollment to death for all causes; censored cases are pts alive at the date of last follow-up assessment.

    Measured: 4 years

  2. DFS (Disease Free Survival)

    DFS time is the interval between CR achievement and the first disease relapse or death regardless of the cause.Definition of disease response/progression will be performed according to the criteria published by Juweid et al.(J Clin Oncol. 2005; 23: 4652-61)

    Measured: 4 years

  3. TRM (Treatment Related Mortality)

    TRM will be analysed by computing the corresponding crude cumulative incidence curve, considering disease-related death as competing event.

    Measured: 4 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Clin A. CHOP-CAMPATH (Chemo-immunotherapy) + SCT and Clin B (CHOP- CAMPATH) Chemo-immunotherapy in people with Lymphoma, T-Cell, Peripheral, run by Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milano at 17 sites in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 13 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 6 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in Italy. 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 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?

Efficacy (time frame: one year). 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 Sep 2012.
