Trial summary

This is a phase I trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of clofarabine in a combination with high-dose etoposide and cyclophosphamide. This is an initial step in developing a novel myeloablative preparative regimen for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Documentation of disease. Patients must have one of the following disease types:
  • Diffuse large cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, mediastinal B-cell lymphoma, or peripheral T-cell lymphoma that is:
  • Primary refractory (achievement less than complete response)
  • Relapsed and refractory (achievement less than a partial response) to at least a single salvage therapy
  • Relapsed or primary refractory Follicular lymphoma (FL) with a high FL International Prognostic Index.
  • Large cell transformation of lymphoma from a more indolent lymphoma (e.g., follicular, marginal zone, etc.)
Show all 19Show fewer
  • Mantle cell lymphoma that is:
  • Primary Refractory (achievement less than complete response)
  • Relapsed (regardless of chemosensitivity of relapsed disease)
  • Patients who received prior autologous stem cell transplantation are not eligible.
  • Patient age 18-70 years
  • Performance status ECOG 0-1
  • Required baseline laboratory values:
  • LVEF > 45% corrected
  • DLCO > 50% of predicted value (corrected for hemoglobin)
  • Serum creatinine ≤ 2.0 mg/dl or estimated creatinine clearance of ≥60 ml/min
  • Bilirubin < 1 x upper limit of normal value.
  • AST and ALT < 1 x upper limit of normal value.
  • Signed written informed consent. Patient must be capable of understanding the investigational nature of the investigational nature, potential risks and benefits of the study, and able to provide valid informed consent

Who cannot join

  • No active infection. Patients with active infections requiring oral or intravenous antibiotics are not eligible for enrollment until resolution of infection.
  • No HIV disease. Patients with immune dysfunction are at a significantly higher risk of infection from intensive immunosuppressive therapies.
  • Non-pregnant and non-nursing. Treatment under this protocol would expose a fetus to significant risks. Women of childbearing potential should have a negative pregnancy test prior to study entry. Women and men of reproductive potential should agree to use an appropriate method of birth control throughout their participation in this study due to the teratogenic potential of the therapy utilized in this trial. Appropriate methods of birth control include oral contraceptives, implantable hormonal contraceptives (Norplant®), or double barrier method (diaphragm plus condom).

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Trial of Clofarabine in Combination With High-Dose Etoposide and Cyclophosphamide and Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With High-Risk or Refractory Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

This is a phase I trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of clofarabine in a combination with high-dose etoposide and cyclophosphamide. This is an initial step in developing a novel myeloablative preparative regimen for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). While this phase I trial will initially develop the regimen in patients with refractory disease, it is expected that it will find its best application in patients with less advanced disease.

Read the detailed description

All patients will receive the same doses of etoposide and cyclophosphamide. The dose of clofarabine will be escalated in successive cohorts of patients. Using a standard dose escalation design, successive cohorts of 3 patients will be treated with escalating doses of clofarabine (see Section 5.5 below). At the MTD (or highest dose-level if the MTD is not reached), the cohort will be expanded to 10 patients to better investigate correlative studies and give some preliminary idea of efficacy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing clofarabine in people with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Indiana University 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 19 inclusion and 3 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 11 Sep 2014. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of clofarabine in association with high-dose etoposide and cyclophosphamide followed by ASCT in patients with refractory lymphoma malignancies. (time frame: 1 yr). 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 11 Sep 2014.
