About this study

Official title: Master Protocol for Mantle Cell Lymphoma A Multicenter Phase II Trial Testing Everolimus (RAD001) for the Treatment of Patients With Relapsed or Therapy Resistant Mantle Cell Lymphoma

RATIONALE: Everolimus may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well everolimus works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of everolimus in patients with relapsed or therapy-resistant mantle cell lymphoma.

Secondary

  • Evaluation of the efficacy of everolimus to induce molecular remission in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Investigation of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene somatic hypermutations (Ig-V_H) in classical mantle cell lymphoma as compared to blastoid mantle cell lymphoma, in particular in regard to their frequency, mutation distribution pattern (antigen selected vs. at random), and the individually involved Ig-V_H families.
  • Evaluation of a putative impact of Ig-V_H on clinical outcome.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral everolimus once daily on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Bone marrow and peripheral blood samples are collected periodically and analyzed for molecular response by PCR. Molecular studies are also performed on DNA level formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually for 3 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of everolimus

    Measured: Until treatment ends

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluation of the efficacy of everolimus to induce molecular remission in patients treated with this regimen.

    Measured: Until treament ends

  2. Investigation of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene somatic hypermutations

    Investigation of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene somatic hypermutations (Ig-V_H) in classical mantle cell lymphoma as compared to blastoid mantle cell lymphoma, in particular in regard to their frequency, mutation distribution pattern (antigen selected vs. at random), and the individually involved Ig-V_H families.

    Measured: Until treatment ends

  3. Evaluation of a putative impact of Ig-V_H on clinical outcome.

    Measured: Until treatment ends

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing everolimus and molecular response by PCR in people with Lymphoma, run by Swiss Cancer Institute at 21 sites in 3 countries.

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 13 inclusion and 23 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 29 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in Switzerland, France, Italy. 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?

Evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of everolimus (time frame: Until treatment ends). 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 NCT00516412, 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 29 Sep 2015.
