About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Low-Dose Radiotherapy for the Palliation of Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

Patients with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma with indication for palliative radiotherapy are treated with low-dose radiation (2 x 2 Gy) to the symptomatic sites only. The primary endpoint of the study is the response rate and Quality of Life of the patients (QoL).

Read the detailed description

Response is planned at 21-day after completion of the treatment. Response assessment is based on the standard definitions of the World Health Organization using complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease (PD) as response assessment criteria. The efficacy of the treatment consisted of a reduction greater than 50% of the maximum diameter of the radiated mass (PR + CR). QoL is evaluated using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-C30 3.0 version questionnaire. The QLQ-C30 questionnaire is self administered to the patients at baseline and at 21 days after treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Response rate

    Clinical response is defined as reduction > 50% of maximum diameter of the radiated lesion

    Measured: Clinical response up to 21 days after treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quality of life according to the EORTC QLQ-C30 questionnaire

    Measured: The QLQ-C30 questionnaire is administered at baseline and at 21 days after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Low-dose radiotherapy in people with Lymphoma, run by Centro di Riferimento Oncologico - Aviano at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2016. 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 Italy. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Carlo Furlan, MD (+390434659081, cfurlan@cro.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response rate (time frame: Clinical response up to 21 days after treatment). 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 17 Jun 2016; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
