About this study

Official title: Prospective, Non Interventional Study to Evaluate the Safety Profile of First- Line Rituximab Maintenance Therapy in Patients With Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

This prospective observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of first-line rituximab maintenance therapy in participants with follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Participants initiated on rituximab maintenance therapy according to the standard of care and in line with the current summary of product characteristics will be followed for a maximum of 3 years or until disease progression occurs.

Being tested
Rituximab
Medical subject headings
Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events

    Measured: Baseline up to approximately 3 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Progression-Free Survival, as Assessed by Criteria for Evaluation of Response in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression or death (assessed at baseline and every 8 weeks during 2-year maintenance period and thereafter every 3 months during 1-year follow up period until disease progression or death [up to approximately 3 years])

  2. Time to Progression, as Assessed by Criteria for Evaluation of Response in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression or death (assessed at baseline and every 8 weeks during 2-year maintenance period and thereafter every 3 months during 1-year follow up period until disease progression or death [up to approximately 3 years])

  3. Time to Next Anti-Lymphoma Treatment (TTNLT)

    Measured: Baseline up to institution of a new regimen (chemotherapy, radiotherapy or immunotherapy) (up to approximately 3 years)

  4. Time to Next Chemotherapy Treatment (TTNCT)

    Measured: Baseline up to institution of a chemotherapy regimen or cytotoxic agent or radio-immunotherapy (up to approximately 3 years)

  5. Overall Survival

    Measured: Baseline up to death (up to approximately 3 years)

  6. Event-Free Survival, as Assessed by Criteria for Evaluation of Response in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression or death (assessed at baseline and every 8 weeks during 2-year maintenance period and thereafter every 3 months during 1-year follow up period until disease progression or death [up to approximately 3 years])

  7. Percentage of Participants with Overall Response of Complete (CR/CRu) or Partial Response, as Assessed by Criteria for Evaluation of Response in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

    Measured: Baseline up to disease progression or death (assessed at baseline and every 8 weeks thereafter until disease progression or death [till the end of rituximab maintenance therapy, up to 2 years])

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 1 site in North Macedonia.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 29 Dec 2017. 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 North Macedonia. 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.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (time frame: Baseline up to approximately 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 29 Dec 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
