About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Flavopiridol (HMR 1275; NSC 649890) in Patients With Untreated or Relapsed Mantle Cell Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of flavopiridol in treating patients who have previously untreated or relapsed mantle cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Assess the efficacy of flavopiridol in terms of response rate in patients with previously untreated or relapsed mantle cell lymphoma.
  • Assess the toxicity of this regimen in this patient population.
  • Determine the time to progression and, if responses are observed, response duration in these patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive flavopiridol IV over 1 hour daily for 3 days. Treatment continues every 3 weeks in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Patients with a complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses after documented CR. Patients with a partial response receive 2 additional courses after documented maximal tumor shrinkage. Patients with stable disease receive a maximum of 4 courses.

Patients are followed at 4 weeks and then every 3 months until relapse or death.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 14-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 18-24 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing alvocidib in people with Lymphoma, run by NCIC Clinical Trials Group at 4 sites in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 9 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Canada. 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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00005074, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Apr 2020.
