About this study

Phase 2 single-institution trial of early systemic central nervous system prophylaxis in high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective phase 2 clinical trial of systemic central nervous system prophylaxis among patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma at high risk of central nervous system recurrence. The main objective is to evaluate safety and efficacy of early institution of intensive central nervous system prophylaxis in a high-risk group to minimize the risk of a devastating central nervous system recurrence. Patients receive standard primary immunochemotherapy with an addition of planned central nervous system prophylaxis courses on or around day 15 of cycles 2, 4, and 6. Growth factor support and Pneumocystis jirovecii prophylaxis is required. The primary endpoint of this pilot study is protocol-defined toxicity, whereas efficacy (cumulative incidence of central nervous system recurrence) will be a secondary endpoint.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Methotrexate and Cytarabine in people with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, run by Brown University at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 3 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 2020.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 1 site in United States. 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Proportion with clinically significant toxicity (time frame: 1 year). 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 13 Apr 2020.
