About this study

Official title: A Phase II, Single-Institution, Single-Arm, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a Single Agent Dasatinib (Sprycel) in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

This is a Phase II, single institution, single-arm, open-label study of oral dasatinib monotherapy administered to subjects with relapsed or refractory aggressive DLBCL.

This study will be conducted in two phases: a Treatment Phase and a Follow-up Phase.

Research Hypothesis: Dasatinib, when administered orally at a continuous dose of 100 mg once daily, will be safe and effective in treating subjects that have failed prior therapies to diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or have relapsed disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing dasatinib in people with Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma, run by Weill Medical College of Cornell 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 31 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2018. 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 31 Aug 2018). 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?

Response Rate (time frame: 2 years). 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 31 Aug 2018.
