Trial summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Treatment of B-Cell NHL Relapsing After Transplant With a Rituxan Vinorelbine Combination

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining monoclonal antibody therapy with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of the monoclonal antibody rituximab plus chemotherapy with vinorelbine in treating patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that has relapsed following autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the tolerability and toxicity of rituximab combined with vinorelbine in patients with relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma following autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
  • Assess the response rate and duration of response to this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive rituximab IV weekly on weeks 1-4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 and vinorelbine IV on weeks 2-4, 6-8, and 10-12. Patients who achieve partial response may continue on vinorelbine from week 14 until disease progression.

Patients are followed until disease progression.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 18-25 patients will be accrued for this study.

What participants receive

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

  • rituximabBiological

    Also called Rituxan

    Week 1-4: Rituxan is given at 375 mg/m2 weekly x4. Week 5-8: Rituxan given every 2 weeks. Week 9-12: Schedule same as week 5-8.

  • vinorelbine ditartrateDrug

    Also called Vinorelbine

    Week 1-4: Vinorelbine (25mg/m2) given 1 week after the first rituxan dose and immediately after the second rituxan dose.

    Week 5-8: Vinorelbine given weekly x3, with one week off. Week 9-12: Schedule same as week 5-8. Week 13 and following: If subject doesn't have disease progression, they may continue on Vinorelbine until progression or until clinically indicated.

    To define the tolerability and toxicity of a combination regimen of rituxan combined with vinorelbine for the treatment of B-cell NHL, relapsing after autologous stem cell transplantation.

    Measured: 13 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Response rate

    To preliminarily assess the response rates to such a regimen; to assess duration of response.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing rituximab and vinorelbine ditartrate in people with Lymphoma, run by Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center 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 4 inclusion and 6 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 3 Aug 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 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?

Tolerability and toxicity (time frame: 13 weeks). 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 3 Aug 2020.
