About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of the Efficacy of the HCVIDDOXIL Regimen in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Peripheral T Cell Lymphoma

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if treatment with two types of chemotherapy combinations can help to control peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

All of the drugs used in this study are commonly used in the treatment of cancer. However, using these drugs in combination is investigational.

During treatment, you will be given two different cycles of chemotherapy, which will be alternated every 21 days.

For Cycle 1, cyclophosphamide will be given by vein two times a day on Days 1,2, and 3. Each dose will take around 3 hours to give. Mesna will be given by vein nonstop over Days 1 through 3. Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin will be given by vein over 1 hour on Day 2. Vincristine will be given by vein on Days 4 and 11. Dexamethasone will be given by mouth on Days 1 through 4 and 11 through 14. Other drugs will be given before, during, and after chemotherapy to help decrease the risk of developing side effects. These drugs may be given by mouth or by injection.

For Cycle 2, methotrexate will be given by vein over 2 hours on Day 1 and over 22 hours on day 1. Cytarabine will be given by vein twice a day on Days 2 and 3. Each dose will take about 2 hours to give. Other drugs will be given before, during, and after treatment to help decrease the risk of developing side effects. These drugs may be given by mouth or by injection.

To help increase the blood counts and help decrease the risk of developing infections, your doctor may decide that treatment with filgrastim is necessary. Filgrastim may be given as once-a-day injections under the skin starting 24 hours after the end of Day 4 vincristine (Cycle 1) and starting 24 hours after the end of Cytarabine (Cycle 2). Your blood counts will be monitored and filgrastim is stopped when the levels become normal.

Cycles 1 and 2 will be alternated every 21 days. Both Cycles 1 and 2 can be given on an outpatient basis if your physician authorizes it. However, if your serum creatinine (blood test) reaches a certain level, Cycle 2 should be given on an inpatient basis.

Depending on how the disease responds, treatment may be stopped after 2,4, or 6 cycles. However, treatment may continue for up to 8 cycles.

During treatment, you will have around 2-3 tablespoons of blood collected at least once a week for routine tests.

After every 2 cycles, tumors will be measured using x-rays or other scans (CT, MRI, etc.) and bone marrow samples will be taken. Heart scans or heart function tests may also be needed if you doctor feels it is necessary.

If the disease gets worse or you experience any intolerable side effects, you will be taken off the study and your doctor will discuss other treatment options with you.

After the last cycle of chemotherapy, you will have follow-up exams scheduled. During these exams, you will have a chest x-ray and CT scans of the chest, abdomen (stomach) and pelvis (waist area), and PET scan. You will have blood collected (2-3 tablespoons) for routine tests. If your doctor feels it is necessary, you may also have a sample of bone marrow collected. You may choose to have long-term follow-up exams at M. D. Anderson or with your local physician.

This is an investigational study. All of the study drugs are approved by the FDA for cancer treatment and are commercially available. However, the use of the drugs in combination is experimental. Up to 55 participants will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at M. D. Anderson.

What is being measured

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

  1. 3 Year Progression-Free Survival Rate

    Percentage of participants out of total treated alive with disease progression 3 years following registration. Progression-free survival (PFS) was measured from the date of study registration to the date of documented disease progression or death of any cause.

    Measured: From registration to disease progression or death, up to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cyclophosphamide, Mesna and Vincristine in people with Lymphoma, run by M.D. Anderson 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 6 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 23 Sep 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Sep 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

3 Year Progression-Free Survival Rate (time frame: From registration to disease progression or death, up to 3 years). 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 NCT00290433, 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 23 Sep 2020.
