About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase II Multi-center Trial of Busulfan, Etoposide, and Cyclophosphamide Versus Busulfan, Etoposide, and Melphalan as Conditioning Therapy for Autologous Stem-cell Transplantation(ASCT) in Patients With Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

The investigators developed a protocol comparing busulfan/cyclophosphamide/etoposide (BuCE) and busulfan/melphalan/etoposide (BuME) regimen as a conditioning for high-dose therapy (HDT) in the patients with high risk or relapsed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).

Read the detailed description

Intravenous busulfan containing regimens as conditioning regimen have been used for both allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic and non-hematologic malignancies.

The investigators have previously studied that conditioning regimen of i.v. busulfan/melphalan/etoposide (BuME) was well tolerated and effective in patients with relapsed or high risk NHL. And busulfan/cyclophosphamide/etoposide (BuCE) conditioning regimen has been extensively utilized in ASCT for NHL.

Therefore, based on the encouraging results, the investigators will conduct a randomized phase II multicenter trial of BuCE versus BuME as conditioning therapy for ASCT in patients with NHL.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of progression free survival

    calculate from the date of ASCT until the time of disease progression, relapse, or death calculate from the date of ASCT until the time of disease progression, relapse, or death calculate from the date of ASCT until the time of disease progression, relapse, or death Calculate from the date of ASCT (autologous stem cell transplantation) until the time of disease progression, relapse, or death

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Rate of overall survival

    calculate from the date of ASCT until the time of death from any causes

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Rate of regimen related toxicity

    calculate toxicities frequency

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide and Etoposide in people with Non-hodgkin Lymphoma, run by Soonchunhyang University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 9 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 7 Jan 2019. 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 South Korea. 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 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?

Rate of progression free survival (time frame: 2 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 7 Jan 2019.
