About this study

Official title: Cinobufacini Tablets Combined With R-CHOP Protocol (Rituximab + Vindesine + Cyclophosphamide + Epirubicin + Prednisone)/CHOP in Treatment of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma: A Phase II Randomized, Controlled and Multi-center Study

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), as the most common subtype non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), has great heterogeneity in clinical manifestations, histological morphology and prognosis. R-CHOP Protocol (Rituximab + Vindesine + Cyclophosphamide + Epirubicin + Prednisone) is the gold therapeutic criteria for patients with NHL, and it is also used as the first-line treatment for patients with DLBCL. After treatment, 50%~60%of patients with DLBCL receive complete remission (CR), 30%~40% recurrent and 10% will never be cured due to initial and secondary drug tolerance. This study aimed to explore whether Cinobufacini Tablets had synergistic effect in the treatment of DLBCL, and whether its action was in close association with the positive expression of Na+/K+-ATPase α3, and to observe the rates of adverse reactions induced by Cinobufacini Tablets during treatment.

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), as the most common subtype non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), accounts for 30%~40% of adults with NHL, and has great heterogeneity in clinical manifestations, histological morphology and prognosis. R-CHOP Protocol (Rituximab + Vindesine + Cyclophosphamide + Epirubicin + Prednisone) is the gold therapeutic criteria for patients with NHL, and it is also used as the first-line treatment for patients with DLBCL. After treatment, 50%~60%of patients with DLBCL receive complete remission (CR), 30%~40% recurrent and 10% will never be cured due to initial and secondary drug tolerance. The study of Tao Wu et al in domestic showed that cinobufacini combined with CHOP protocol had excellent efficacy in the treatment of NHL, with response rate reaching up to 91.7%, and the adverse reactions were mild and tolerable, whereas the response rate of single CHOP was only 62.5%. In the clinical practice of our studies, it was also found that some patients with recurrent DLBCL NHL also had shrunken or disappeared tumors and a survival time of more than 2 years after single administration of cinobufacini tablets for 3~6 months following the withdrawal of chemotherapy. This study aimed to explore whether Cinobufacini Tablets had synergistic effect in the treatment of DLBCL, and whether its action was in close association with the positive expression of Na+/K+-ATPase α3, and to observe the rates of adverse reactions induced by Cinobufacini Tablets during treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    3-year Progression-free survival (PFS) defined as the ratio of study subjects who had disease progression or died within 3 years from the start of randomization.

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall response rate (ORR)

    Overall response rate (ORR) that defined as the total ratio of study subjects with complete response, complete response unconfirmed and partial response after treatment. ORR=(CR+ CRu+ PR)cases/total cases×100%.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. overall survival rate (OS)

    3-year overall survival rate (OS) that defined as the ratio of study subjects who survived 3 years after randomization

    Measured: 3 years

  3. Safety and Tolerability

    Incidence of Treatment-Emergent adverse events

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Relationship between synergistic effect of Cinobufacini Tablets and expression of Na+/K+-ATPase α3

    Relationship between synergistic effect of Cinobufacini Tablets and expression of Na+/K+-ATPase α3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing vindesine, cyclophosphamide and Epirubicin in people with Diffuse, Large B-Cell, Lymphoma, run by Xinjiang Medical 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 18 inclusion and 17 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 Jul 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 combined 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.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Shun-E Yang, Professor (13669926688, yangshune@medmail.com.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: 3 years). 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 Jul 2017.
