About this study

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is an aggressive malignance disease in children and adolescents. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of the modified NHL-BFM-90 protocol in Chinese children and adolescents with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL) in children and adolescents include Burkitt's lymphoma (BL), diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL). These subtypes of NHL are an aggressive group of diseases. At present, in developed countries, 80 to 90% of children with NHL are cured by intensive, risk-adapted chemotherapy.The best protocols include BFM-90, LMB-89 and FAB/LMB/96. However, in developing countries, such as those with low and moderate incomes, the limited availability of resources is an obstacle for using these complicated and intensive protocols.As such, very simple protocols, such as the CHOP protocol, were often used to treat children and adolescents with NHL, thus resulting in poor survival rates. To improve the survival rate of Chinese children and adolescents with NHL, This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of this modified NHL-BFM -90 protocol in Chinese children and adolescents with NHL.

What is being measured

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

  1. The event free survival (EFS)

    The event free survival (EFS) was defined as the time from the start of treatment to one of the following events: death from any cause, disease progression during treatment, relapse, or to the date of the last follow up if patient did not experience any event.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events

    To assess the number of adverse events from the start of treatment to one of the following events: death from any cause, disease progression during treatment, relapse, severe infection, therapy related complication and second malignancy.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Modified BFM-90 protocol in people with Childhood Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Sun Yat-sen University.

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 3 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 4 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The event free survival (EFS) (time frame: Up to 5 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 4 Jan 2013.
