About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Chemoimmunotherapy With the Monoclonal Antibody Campath-1H (Alemtuzumab) Given in Combination With 2-weekly CHOP Versus 2-weekly CHOP Alone and Consolidated by Autologous Stem Cell Transplant, in Young Patients With Previously Untreated Systemic Peripheral T-cell Lymphomas

The purpose of this study is to determine efficacy and safety of the monoclonal antibody MabCampath® (alemtuzumab) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of T-cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

First International phase III T-cell lymphoma study Indication:Newly diagnosed non-cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphoma Study objectives:Determination of the efficacy and safety of the monoclonal antibody MabCampath® (alemtuzumab) combined with two-weekly CHOP supported by G-CSF Primary Endpoint: Event-Free-Survival (EFS) Study Design: International open-label, multicentre, randomized Phase III Study

Study Medication: Patients are randomized to six cycles of two-weekly CHOP plus G-CSF with or without alemtuzumab given subcutaneously 30 mg day 1 in combination with chemotherapy cycles 1-4. Patients in CR, CRu and PR after the 6 cycles of CHOP14 combined or not with alemtuzumab will receive a consolidation with high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation.

Patient Population: Patients > 18 yrs with newly diagnosed non-cutaneous, non-leukemic PTCL, except alk-protein positive and negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma Planned Sample Size: 308 young patients (18-60 yrs) registered and randomized Total Number of Centers: This study will be proposed to main European and Australian Study Groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Event-free Survival

    Measured: The EFS is defined by the time between day of randomization until an event occurs, up to 96 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall survival

    Measured: From the time of randomisation to date of last follow-up or death, up to 96 months

  2. Overall response rate

    Measured: from date of randomization to date of primary response assessment, up to 96 months

  3. Overall response rate related to the CD52 expression

    Measured: From date of randomization to date of primary response assessment, up to 96 months

  4. Tumor control or time-to-progression

    Measured: time of randomization to last follow-up or time of disease progression, up to 96 months

  5. Safety measured as number of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: from randomization to closure of study, up to 96 months

  6. Feasibility of successful stem cell harvest i.e. >/=2E6 CD34 positive cells

    Measured: from start of priming regimen to time of assessment of stem cell harvest, up to 96 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing CHOP14 chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, vincristin, prednison) plus G-CSF, combined with alemtuzumab and CHOP14 chemotherapy (see specification under Arm B) plus G-CSF in people with Lymphoma, T-Cell, Peripheral, run by Aarhus University Hospital at 59 sites in 11 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 21 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 1 Mar 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 59 sites in Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Czechia, Finland and 6 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Event-free Survival (time frame: The EFS is defined by the time between day of randomization until an event occurs, up to 96 months). 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 1 Mar 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
