About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Methotrexate, Etoposide, Dexamethasone and Pegaspargase Chemotherapy (MEDA) With Autologous HSCT in the Treatment of Stage IV Natural Killer/T-Cell Lymphoma: A Multicenter, Prospective Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of methotrexate, etoposide, pegaspargase and dexamethasone (MEDA) chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Auto-HSCT) in patients with stage IV extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type.

Read the detailed description

Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL), nasal type, is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with relatively high incidence in China. L-asparaginase based chemotherapy improved overall response and prolonged the long-term survival for patients with stage IV. But the optimal treatment schedule has not been established. This study is designed with four cycles MEDA chemotherapy, followed by Auto-HSCT for stage IV patients with newly onset, relapsed or refractory diseases. The efficacy and safety of this protocol in the treatment of will be measured.

What participants receive

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

  • MEDADrug

    Also called Methotrexate, Etoposide,Dexamethasone,Pegaspargase

    Methotrexate, 3.0g/m2/d iv, day 1

    Etoposide, 100mg/m2 iv, day 2 to day 4

    Dexamethasone, 40mg/d iv, day 1 to day 4

    Pegaspargase, 2500IU/m2/d im, day 4

    The MEDA chemotherapy will be repeated every 3 weeks.

  • Auto-HSCTProcedure or surgery

    Auto-HSCT will be performed with patients who responded to the initial MEDA chemotherapy with standard BEAM conditioning regimen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete response rate

    The complete response rate will be assessed on day 28 of the 4th course of MEDA chemotherapy.

    Measured: Day 28 of the 4th course of MEDA chemotherapy

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Progression free survival

    Progression free survival is the time from entry onto the treatment until lymphoma progression or death of any reason.

    Measured: 2-year

  2. Overall response rate

    The overall response rate will be assessed on day 28 of the 4th course of MEDA chemotherapy.

    Measured: Day 28 of the 4th course of MEDA chemotherapy

  3. Treatment-Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Treatment-Related Adverse Events will be assessed and graded by NCI CTCAE v4.0.

    Measured: Day 1 of each course of chemotherapy and then every 3 months for 2 years

  4. Overall survival

    Overall survival is defiend as the time from entry onto the treatment until death of any reason

    Measured: 2-year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing MEDA and Auto-HSCT in people with Extranodal NK-T-Cell Lymphoma, Nasal Type, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine at 7 sites 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 5 inclusion and 11 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 27 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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.

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?

Complete response rate (time frame: Day 28 of the 4th course of MEDA chemotherapy). 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 27 Apr 2020.
