What participants receive

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

  • FusilevDrug

    Also called Fusilev - (Levoleucovorin)

    Fusilev will be administered by IV push (3-5 minutes) at a dose of 5 mg/m2. Fusilev administration, QID or BID will start 24 ± 3 hours after Folotyn administration depending on the dose cohort.

  • FolotynDrug

    Also called Folotyn - (Pralatrexate)

    A cycle of Folotyn treatment is 7 weeks, 6 weeks of treatment followed by 1 week of rest.

What is being measured

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

  1. Optimal dose and schedule of Fusilev to prevent or reduce mucositis

    The patient will be seen in the clinic for an oral mucositis assessment at baseline. During the 6 weeks of Folotyn treatment, oral mucositis assessment will be performed weekly prior to each Folotyn dose and again on Day 4 (prior to the Fusilev dose when applicable) by a qualified health care professional. Patients will complete an Oral Mucositis Daily Questionnaire (OMQD) starting at Day 1 of Week 1 and ending at the End of Treatment Visit.

    Measured: Up to 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Impact of Fusilev on Folotyn related Oral Mucositis

    To determine the impact of Fusilev on the number of Folotyn-related dose modifications secondary to oral mucositis To determine the impact of Fusilev on the frequency of Folotyn-related oral mucositis To determine the impact of Fusilev on the number of Folotyn doses delivered

    Measured: 7 weeks

  2. Relationship between Fusilev use and oral mucositis

    To determine the relationship between Fusilev use and oral mucositis as a function of the pretreatment homocysteine (HCY) and methylmalonic acid (MMA) levels

    Measured: 7 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Fusilev and Folotyn in people with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Acrotech Biopharma Inc..

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 9 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2020. 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 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.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Optimal dose and schedule of Fusilev to prevent or reduce mucositis (time frame: Up to 8 weeks). 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 23 Jan 2020.
