About this study

Official title: Radiotherapy Combined With GDP (Gemcitabine, Cisplatin, Dexamethasone) Chemotherapy in Stage I/II Extranodal Natural Killer/T-cell Lymphoma Patients With Unfavorable Prognostic Factors: an Open-label, Single-arm, Phase II Clinical Trial

This study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy combined with GDP (gemcitabine, cisplatin, dexamethasone) chemotherapy in stage I/II extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma patients with unfavorable prognostic factors.

Read the detailed description

Radiotherapy has been recognized as the definitive treatment of choice for stages I and II extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma. The progression-free survival rate and overall survival rate of radiotherapy plus anthracycline-containing chemotherapy were comparable to that of radiotherapy alone. Our previous studies demonstrated the high responsiveness and safety of GDP (gemcitabine, cisplatin, dexamethasone) regimen in patients with extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma. Therefore, we design this study to evaluate the safety and benefit of radiotherapy plus GDP regimen in extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma.

Being tested
Intensity-modulated radiation therapy, GDP chemotherapy
Medical subject headings
Lymphoma, Extranodal NK-T-Cell

What participants receive

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

  • Intensity-modulated radiation therapyRadiation

    total dose: 50 to 56 grays per fraction: 2 grays

  • GDP chemotherapyDrug

    gemcitabine (1000mg/m2 intravenously over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8), cisplatin (25mg/m2 intravenously over 60 minutes on days 1-3), and dexamethasone (20mg/d orally on days 1-4 and days 11-14), which was administered every 21 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intensity-modulated radiation therapy and GDP chemotherapy in people with Stage I/II Extranodal NK/T-cell Lymphoma, run by Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences 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 11 inclusion and 8 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 16 Aug 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 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 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?

2-year progression-free survival (time frame: 2 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02276248, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Aug 2017.
