About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Phase 2 Study Evaluating the Value of Radiotherapy in Advanced Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Patients With Extranodal Involvement and Large Tumors Who Had Complete Remission as Assessed by PET-CT After Immune-chemotherapy

This study is a prospective, single center, phase II clinical study involving 108 patients with primary and late stage Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma complicated by large masses and extranodal involvement. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of radiotherapy targeting large masses and extranodal involvement in treatment-naïve advanced DLBCL patients with large mass lesions and/or extranodal involvement after they had initially been treated with standard immunochemotherapy and received complete remission as assessed by PET-CT.

After completing the standard immunochemotherapy, subjects will be randomly divided into the radiotherapy group or the non-radiotherapy group, and the curative effects will be evaluated every three months after the end of the treatment or after their leaving the group, so as to obtain the relevant data and data of the 2-year Progression Free Survival, survival of the subjects and Treatment-related side effects.

Read the detailed description

Safety analysis:

The safety analysis is mainly based on descriptive statistical analysis, which lists and describes the incidence, severity, correlation, risk and outcome of adverse events (AE) in this trial.

Efficacy analysis:

The Kaplan-Meier method will be used to draw the overall survival curve and the progression-free survival curve, and to estimate the median survival time, median progression-free survival period and their 95% confidence intervals.

Before starting the study, patients must read and sign the current version of informed consent form approved by the Ethics Committee (EC). All research steps must be carried out within the time window specified in the research schedule.

The duration of safety data collection is from the patient signing the Informed Consent Form (ICF) to the end of the study, with all AEs recorded in the CRF.

The severity of AE will be evaluated based on the NCI CTCAE 5.0 standard. Each patient will undergo a series of planned visits and specific data will be recorded at different time points during the scheduled visits. All examinations/tests are recommended, and the exact examination/test items to be completed during the study shall be subject to clinical practice.

Investigators must be physicians who have been trained in terms of knowledge and conduct of clinical trials and work under the guidance of senior professionals; Prior to the start of the trial, the clinical ward must be inspected so as to ensure its compliance with standardized requirements and to ensure complete readiness of rescue equipment. It is recommended that professional nursing staff administer medication to the subjects and have a detailed understanding of the medication usage to ensure patient compliance; Each investigation site must strictly follow the study protocol; All participating sites should adhere to the ICH-GCP regulations and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for preservation, and all clinical trial information should be recorded, disposed of, and saved for purposes of accurate reporting, interpretation, and verification of study results; Confirm that all data records and reports are correct and complete, and save the original and essential documents related to the study.

This clinical study will be conducted in accordance with the principles established by the 18th World Federation of Medical Associations (Helsinki, 1964) and all subsequent revisions. Before enrollment, it is necessary to weigh the foreseeable risks and inconveniences that study may bring to the subjects against the potential benefits for enrolled patients. Clinical trials can only be initiated and continued when the expected benefits outweigh the risks. Prior to participating in clinical trials, each subject should provide voluntary informed consent, otherwise they cannot be screened or selected.

Being tested
6-8 cycles (21 days per cycle) of Standard R-CHOP chemotherapy, Radiotherapy beyond standard R-CHOP Chemotherapy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 6-8 cycles (21 days per cycle) of Standard R-CHOP chemotherapyDrug

    All enrolled patients will first complete a total of 6-8 cycles (21 days per cycle) of Standard R-CHOP chemotherapy (Rituximab + Cyclophosphamide + Doxorubicin + Prednisolone) and conduct evaluation about treatment effects (i.e. efficacy evaluation) once every 2 cycles, and after their completion of the 6th cycle, they will receive maintenance treatment . After the end of 6th cycle of treatment or after their leaving the group, efficacy evaluation is conducted every three months to obtain relevant data regarding the 2-year Progression-Free Survival(PFS) and survival of the subjects.

  • Radiotherapy beyond standard R-CHOP ChemotherapyRadiation

    Radiotherapy: after completion of the standard R-CHOP treatment, enrolled patients will be divided into radiotherapy group and non-radiotherapy group. In radiotherapy group, further consolidation radiotherapy targeting patients' pre-treatment large masses or extranodal affected areas will be given, with routine segmentation of 30-36Gy/15-18f.

What is being measured

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

  1. 2-Year Event Free Survival Rate

    The proportion of enrolled patients who are free of events such as death, disease progression, switch to chemotherapy, addition of other treatments, occurrence of fatal or intolerable side effects, and other events

    Measured: 2-Year

  2. 2-Year Progression-Free Survival Rate

    The percentage of people who did not have new tumor growth or cancer spread during or after treatment.

    Measured: 2-Year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. 2-Year Overall Survival

    The percentage of enrolled patients who are alive 2 years after their enrollment .

    Measured: 2-Year

  2. Adverse Events related to Radiotherapy

    The occurrence of Hematological and non-Hematological adverse event( NCI CTCAE v5.0)

    Measured: Adverse events that occur within 30 days

  3. 2-Year Local Control Rate

    The percentage of enrolled patients in radiotherapy group whose tumor volume is equal to or less than their tumor volume at start of radiotherapy

    Measured: 2-Year

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 10 inclusion and 10 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 25 May 2023. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

2-Year Event Free Survival Rate (time frame: 2-Year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 May 2023.
