Trial summary

A phase 2 study was conducted of "sandwich" protocols, with earlier RT after an initial 2 of P-CHOP (Pegaspargase, cyclophosphamide,vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone ), followed by further two "consolidation" cycles,to explore the appropriate mode of combined modality therapy (CMT) in early stage ENKTL.

About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Trial of "Sandwich" Pegaspargase-CHOP Chemotherapy With Radiotherapy in Newly Diagnosed, Stage IE to IIE, Nasal Type, Extranodal Natural Killer/T-cell Lymphoma

A phase 2 study was conducted of "sandwich" protocols, with earlier RT after an initial 2 of P-CHOP (Pegaspargase, cyclophosphamide,vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone ), followed by further two "consolidation" cycles,to explore the appropriate mode of combined modality therapy (CMT) in early stage ENKTL.

Read the detailed description

The extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) shows high local or systemic failure rates when radiotherapy (RT) is taken as the primary treatment, suggesting a role for chemotherapy (CT) added to RT for this disease. However, the appropriate mode of combined modality therapy (CMT) has not been fully defined.We conducted a prospective phase II study of "Sandwich" Pegaspargase, cyclophosphamide,vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone (P-CHOP) regimen in combination with radiotherapy.The "sandwich" protocols, refer to earlier RT after an initial 2 cycles of P-CHOP followed by further two "consolidation" cycles.

What participants receive

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

  • P-CHOPDrug

    Also called CTX, VCR, ADM , DXM, Pegaspargase

    Two cycles of P-CHOP:cyclophosphamide, 750 mg/m2 day 1; vincristine,(maximal dose 2 mg),adriamycin , 50 mg/m2 day 1; dexamethasone,10mg days 1-8; Pegaspargase, 2500IU/m2 day 1 are given before radiotherapy

  • RadiotherapyRadiation

    Also called radiotherapy after induction chemotherapy

    Radiotherapy was scheduled after 2 cycles of P-CHOPregimen. Involved field radiotherapy(IFRT) is delivered using 6-Million electron Volts linear accelerator using 3-dimensional conformable treatment planning. The IFRT dose was 56 grays (Gy) in 28 fractions.

  • P-CHOPDrug

    Also called CTX, VCR, ADM , DXM, Pegaspargase

    Two "consolidation" cycles of P-CHOP are given after radiotherapy

What is being measured

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

  1. complete remission rate

    The criteria for the efficacy evaluation (complete remission) of the regimen is according to the following article.

    Cheson BD, Horning SJ, Coiffier B, et al. Report of an international workshop to standardize response criteria for non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. NCI Sponsored International Working Group. J Clin Oncol. 1999;17:1244

    Measured: every 4 weeks,up to completion of treatment(approximately 6 months)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. progression free survival

    time from the date of enrollment to date of disease progression, or death of any cause, or date of lost follow-up, whichever comes first

    Measured: up to end of follow-up-phase (approximately 3 years)

  2. overall survival

    time from the date of enrollment to date of death from any cause, or date of lost follow-up, whichever comes first.

    Measured: up to end of follow-up-phase (approximately 3 years)

  3. Hematological and non-hematological safety as a measure of adverse events according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE)

    including hematological safety and non-hematological safety. All the adverse events will be classified according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE)

    Measured: up to end of follow-up-phase (approximately 3 years)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing P-CHOP and Radiotherapy in people with Treatment Refusal, run by Sun Yat-sen University 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 7 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 May 2018. 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 was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

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?

complete remission rate (time frame: every 4 weeks,up to completion of treatment(approximately 6 months)). 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 9 May 2018.
