What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Progressive Disease (PD) as Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC) or Death
PD was assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (iNHL) (Modified Cheson et al, 2007). PD was defined as appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 centimeters (cm) in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size; at least a 50 percent (%) increase from nadir in the sum of product diameter (SPD) of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions (example: splenic or hepatic nodules). To be considered PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of less than (<) 1.0 cm must increase by greater than or equal to (≥) 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node greater than (>) 1 cm in its short axis.
Measured: Baseline until PD or death, whichever occurred first (assessed at baseline, 14 days prior to Cycle [Cy] 4 Day 1 [1 Cy=28days], 28-42 days after Cy 6 Day 1, then every 3 months up to 2 years and every 6 months for next 2 years [up to 4.5 years overall])
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by IRC
PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of PD or death as assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for iNHL (Modified Cheson et al, 2007). PD was defined as appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 cm in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size; at least a 50% increase from nadir in the SPD of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions (e.g., splenic or hepatic nodules). To be PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of <1.0 cm must increase by ≥ 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node >1 cm in its short axis. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and 95% confidence interval (CI) for median was computed using the method of Brookmeyer and Crowley.
Measured: Baseline until PD or death, whichever occurred first (assessed at baseline, 14 days prior to Cy 4 Day 1 [1 Cy=28days], 28-42 days after Cy 6 Day 1, then every 3 months up to 2 years and every 6 months for next 2 years [up to 4.5 years overall])

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This open-label, multicenter, randomized Phase III study will investigate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacoeconomics of obinutuzumab (RO5072759, GA101) combined with bendamustine followed by continued obinutuzumab treatment (maintenance monotherapy) compared with bendamustine alone treatment in participants with rituximab-refractory indolent Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (iNHL). The end of study was defined to when safety follow-up for all patients had been completed (2 years' safety follow-up from last dose).

Primary outcome
Number of Participants With Progressive Disease (PD) as Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC) or Death
Time frame: Baseline until PD or death, whichever occurred first (assessed at baseline, 14 days prior to Cycle [Cy] 4 Day 1 [1 Cy=28days], 28-42 days after Cy 6 Day 1, then every 3 months up to 2 years and every 6 months for next 2 years [up to 4.5 years overall])
PD was assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (iNHL) (Modified Cheson et al, 2007). PD was defined as appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 centimeters (cm) in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size; at least a 50 percent (%) increase from nadir in the sum of product diameter (SPD) of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions (example: splenic or hepatic nodules). To be considered PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of less than (<) 1.0 cm must increase by greater than or equal to (≥) 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node greater than (>) 1 cm in its short axis.

Time frame: Baseline until PD or death, whichever occurred first (assessed at baseline, 14 days prior to Cy 4 Day 1 [1 Cy=28days], 28-42 days after Cy 6 Day 1, then every 3 months up to 2 years and every 6 months for next 2 years [up to 4.5 years overall])
PFS was defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of PD or death as assessed by an IRC according to the modified response criteria for iNHL (Modified Cheson et al, 2007). PD was defined as appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 cm in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size; at least a 50% increase from nadir in the SPD of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions (e.g., splenic or hepatic nodules). To be PD, a lymph node with a diameter of the short axis of <1.0 cm must increase by ≥ 50% and to a size of 1.5 multiplied by 1.5 cm or more than 1.5 cm in the long axis; at least a 50% increase in the longest diameter of any single previously identified node >1 cm in its short axis. PFS was estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and 95% confidence interval (CI) for median was computed using the method of Brookmeyer and Crowley.

A Phase 3 study testing Obinutuzumab and Bendamustine in people with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Genentech, Inc. at 121 sites in 14 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 4 inclusion and 22 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 13 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 121 sites in United States, France, Canada, Italy, Russia and 9 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Nov 2016). 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?
Number of Participants With Progressive Disease (PD) as Assessed by Independent Review Committee (IRC) or Death (time frame: Baseline until PD or death, whichever occurred first (assessed at baseline, 14 days prior to Cycle [Cy] 4 Day 1 [1 Cy=28days], 28-42 days after Cy 6 Day 1, then every 3 months up to 2 years and every 6 months for next 2 years [up to 4.5 years overall])). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT01059630, which also lists 4 linked publications.
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 13 Jan 2020.
