What is being measured

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

  1. The Overall Response Rate [Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)] Determined on the Basis of Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma

    CR: Disappearance of all evidence of disease. PR: Regression of measurable disease and no new sites.

    For the criteria for CR, See Outcome measure 2 description.

    The criteria for PR is as below.

    Nodal Masses:

    more than 50% decrease in sum of the product of the perpendicular diameters (SPD) of up to 6 largest dominant masses; no increase in size of other nodes

    1. FDG-avid or PET positive prior to therapy; one or more PET positive at previously involved site
    2. Variably FDG-avid or PET negative; regression on CT

    Spleen, Liver:

    more than 50% decrease in SPD of nodules (for single nodule in greatest transverse diameter); no increase in size of liver or spleen

    Bone Marrow:

    Irrelevant if positive prior to therapy; cell type should be specified

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. The Complete Response (CR) Rate Determined on the Basis of Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma

    The criteria for CR is as below

    Nodal Masses:

    1. fluorodeoxy glucose (FDG)-avid or positron emission tomography (PET) positive prior to therapy; mass of any size permitted if PET negative
    2. Variably FDG-avid or PET negative; regression to normal size on computed tomography (CT)

    Spleen, Liver:

    Not palpable, nodules disappeared

    Bone Marrow:

    Infiltrate cleared on repeat biopsy; if indeterminate by morphology, immunohistochemistry should be negative

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS = day of the first PFS event - day of start of study treatment + 1

    The definitions of PFS event are as below.

    1. PD according to overall response on the basis of Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma PD: Any new lesion or increase by ≥50% of previously involved sites from nadir. Nodal masses; Appearance of a new lesion(s) >1.5 cm in any axis, ≥50% increase in SPD of more than one node, or ≥50% increase in longest diameter of a previously identified node >1 cm in short axis. Lesions PET positive if FDG-avid lymphoma or PET positive prior to therapy. Spleen, Liver; ≥50% increase from nadir in the SPD of any previous lesions. Bone marrow; New or recurrent involvement
    2. Disease progression during treatment period
    3. Disease progression during follow up period
    4. Start of treatment of new lesion
    5. Occurrence of other multiple malignant tumors
    6. Death

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  3. Number of Subjects With Adverse Event

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  4. Number of Adverse Events

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  5. Number of Subjects With Abnormality (Grade ≥3) in Laboratory Test Values

    grade 1 : mild grade 2 : moderate grade 3 : severe grade 4 : life threatening or disabling grade 5 : death related to adverse event

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  6. Number of Subjects With Grade ≥3 Physical Examination Finding

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  7. Concomitant Medication Usage

    Measured: up to 30 weeks

  8. The Maximum Concentration (Cmax) of Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Japan

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

  9. The Maximum Drug Concentration Time (Tmax) of Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Japan

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

  11. The Half-life Period (t1/2) of Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Japan

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

  13. The Maximum Drug Concentration Time (Tmax) of Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Korea

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

  14. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) for Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Korea

    Measured: Prior to and 30 min after start of administration, and 0, 30, 60, 120 min after completion of administration on Day 2 of the 1st cycle

  15. The Half-life Period (t1/2) of Unchanged SyB L-0501 in Korea

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SyB L-0501 and Rituximab in people with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Lymphoma, Large Cell, run by SymBio Pharmaceuticals at 25 sites in 2 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 9 inclusion and 18 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 4 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 sites in Japan, South Korea. 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 4 Jul 2013). 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?

The Overall Response Rate [Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR)] Determined on the Basis of Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma (time frame: up to 30 weeks). 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 4 Jul 2013.
