Trial summary

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate how effective ONTAK is in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL) and determine whether the presence of a type of protein called CD25 on the cancer cells makes a difference in how the body responds to the treatment.

About this study

Official title: Open Label Study of ONTAK® (Denileukin Diftitox, DAB389IL-2) to Estimate Response in Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma (CTCL) According to CD25 Status

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate how effective ONTAK is in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL) and determine whether the presence of a type of protein called CD25 on the cancer cells makes a difference in how the body responds to the treatment.

The hypothesis is that there is no difference in response rate for patients whose tumor cells are CD25 positive or negative.

What participants receive

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

  • ONTAK (denileukin difitox, DAB389IL-2)Drug

What is being measured

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

  1. To estimate response rates (CR + CCR + PR) according to CD25 status (CD25 positive and negative) after 4 cycles of ONTAK.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Physician's Global Assessment (PGA)

  2. Time to Event Variables - Time to response, remission, treatment failure

  3. Response based on the CD25 status

  4. Response based on patient demographics: stage of disease, age, sex, performance status, total dose

  5. Number of cycles completed

  6. 6. Assess safety and tolerability of ONTAK

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ONTAK (denileukin difitox, DAB389IL-2) in people with Lymphoma, T-Cell, Cutaneous, run by Eisai Inc. at 9 sites 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 9 inclusion and 9 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 5 Mar 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

To estimate response rates (CR + CCR + PR) according to CD25 status (CD25 positive and negative) after 4 cycles of ONTAK.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00211198, 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 5 Mar 2008.
