About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of Relapse/Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma

For continuous variables, mean, median, minimum, and maximum will be used for the descriptive purpose. For categorical variables, frequency and percentage will be used for descriptive statistics. The variables of OS will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Differences between groups will be calculated using the log-rank test for univariate analysis. Cox's proportional hazards model will be employed to test independent prognostic factors. All calculations will be performed using the Statistical Package of Social Sciences software, version 17.0 (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The level of statistical significance will be set at 0.05 for all tests.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single arm, prospective, multiple-center phase Ib/II study.

In phase Ib, a maximum of 18 patients will be enrolled in the dose-finding period to determine the RP2D, dependent on the toxicity of the study drugs. The response rates of salvage chemotherapy regimen in R/R DLBCL were reported to be within the range of 35-65%.3 Assuming that the response rate of traditional salvage therapy has an overall response rate of 35% (H0=0.35) and that our experimental regimen would increase it to 50% (H1=0.50), the estimated sample size according to the Simon's two-stage minimal design will be 49 in the second phase.1 Briefly, among the 31 patients recruited during the first stage, the response should be seen in at least 10 of the cases, the lowest threshold for the trial to be moved into the second stage of the phase II part. Furthermore, for the RPR regimen to be deemed effective, a response must be demonstrated in at least 21 of the whole 49 patients enrolled in the phase II period. This would achieve a power of 80%, with a two-sided type I error rate of 10%. An additional 7 patients will be recruited, for an estimated dropout rate of 10%.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Rituximab Paclitaxel Ruxolitinib in people with Refractory Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, run by National Health Research Institutes, Taiwan.

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 11 inclusion and 8 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Chih-Cheng Chen, M.D. Ph.D. (886-5-3621000 ext. 2852, ccchen1968@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Primary Outcome Measure (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 23 Apr 2021.
