Study population: Patients diagnosed with DLBCL and an IPI score equal to or greater than three and consent to receive the standard R-CHOP regimen followed by ASCT. During the interim evaluation, patients achieving CR or CMR, will be followed up for up to two years after completing the R-CHOP regimen followed by ASCT. Patients achieving PR or PMR and who are willing to receive Pola-R-CHP as the following treatment regimen followed by ASCT, will also be followed up for up to two years. Patients achieving less than a PR or PMR response will be excluded from the study.

About this study

Official title: The Efficacy and Safety of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) in Frontline Therapy of Patients With High-Risk Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

The role of frontline therapy of autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is controversial. The investigators aim to conduct this prospective study to observe the efficacy and safety of ASCT as frontline therapy in DLBCL patients with high-risk disease, defined by an International Prognostic Index (IPI) score equal to or greater than three.

Read the detailed description

There is evidence to suggest that chemotherapy followed by ASCT may be more effective than standard chemotherapy alone as a frontline treatment for high-risk DLBCL patients. However, the use of ASCT as frontline therapy for DLBCL remains controversial due to concerns over the potential toxicities of the procedure, as well as questions about which patients would benefit most from this approach.

The investigators aim to conduct this prospective study to observe the efficacy and safety of ASCT as frontline therapy in DLBCL patients with high-risk disease, defined by an International Prognostic Index (IPI) score equal to or greater than 3 points.

Patients diagnosed with DLBCL and an IPI score of equal to or greater than three will be eligible for inclusion in this study, provided they consent to receive the standard R-CHOP (Rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunomycin, oncovin, and prednisone) regimen, followed by ASCT. During the interim evaluation, patients achieving complete response (CR) as determined by computed tomography (CT), or complete metabolic response (CMR) as determined by positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), will be followed up for up to two years after completing the R-CHOP regimen followed by ASCT. Patients achieving partial response (PR) as determined by CT, or partial metabolic response (PMR) as determined by PET-CT, and who are willing to receive Pola-R-CHP (Polatuzumab vedotin, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunomycin, and prednisone) as the following treatment regimen followed by ASCT with Pola-BEAM (Polatuzumab vedotin, carmustine/bendamustine, etoposide, cytarabine and melphalan) as conditioning regimen, will also be followed up for up to two years. Patients achieving less than a PR or PMR response will be excluded from the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    From the start of treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or relapse, or death from any cause, whichever occurs earlier.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participants With complete response (CR) or complete metabolic response (CMR)

    Assessed by Lugano Response Criteria

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Percentage of Participants With partial response (PR) or partial metabolic response (PMR)

    Assessed by Lugano Response Criteria

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Overall survival (OS)

    From the start of treatment until death from any cause

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, run by Peking University People's Hospital 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 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 May 2023. 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.

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 Xuelin Dou, M.D. (010-88326999 ext. 7003, dxldw@163.com), 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: 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 6 May 2023.
