About this study

Official title: Phase II Trial on Efficacy of mTOR Inhibitor RAD001 as Maintenance Therapy for Patients Above 60 Years in Mantle Cell Lymphoma After First and Second Line Chemotherapy

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 older patients with mantle cell lymphoma who received previous first-line or second-line chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the progression-free survival of older patients with mantle cell lymphoma receiving everolimus and who were previously treated with first- or second-line chemotherapy.

Secondary

  • Determine the toxicity and feasibility of treatment with this drug.
  • Determine the efficacy of this drug in these patients.
  • Compare the duration of remission after first- vs second-line chemotherapy.
  • Determine the rate of objective remission.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oral everolimus once daily in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed periodically for 3 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing everolimus in people with Lymphoma, run by Technical University of Munich at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2012. 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 Germany. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack of participations (8 of 25)). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Progression-free survival. 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 17 Dec 2012.
