Trial summary

This trial studies the side effects of radiation therapy used alone, and if it can achieve a high cure rate in the treatment of patients with MALT lymphoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. This treatment may improve the patient's lymphoma. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with newly diagnosed stage 1 and 2 MALT lymphoma are eligible for this study
  • Patients with Helicobacter (H.) pylori positive gastric MALT lymphoma are recommended to have treatments with antibiotics prior to enrollment to this protocol
  • Patients who failed other treatment modalities (e.g. chemotherapy, antibiotics therapy etc) are also eligible as far as they never had stage 3 or 4 disease during the course of the disease or disease progression to the opposite side of the diaphragm (as the time course of the response to antibiotic therapy can be very variable among patients, sometimes requiring more than one year for complete response, failure to antibiotic therapy can be very variable among patients, sometimes requiring more than one year for complete response, failure to antibiotic treatment will be defined as no response or progression of the disease documented by endoscopy and biopsy)
  • Patients who have had stage 4 diseases due to bilateral parotid gland or ocular/ocular adnexal involvement or due to multiple sites within Waldeyer's ring will still be eligible

Who cannot join

  • Patients who had previous radiation dose to the site of the current primary disease which would lead to violation of known radiation tolerance limit of that particular site if treated again
  • Patients with MALT lymphoma of the skin whose lesions are separated by more than 5 cm will be ineligible
  • Previous or concurrent malignancy in any form would not be an exclusion criterion. However, patients who receive chemotherapy for concurrent malignancy will be excluded from statistical analysis
  • Low blood cell counts would not be exclusion criteria as far as the patient is willing to accept supportive measures such as transfusions, filgrastim and epoetin

About this study

Official title: Radiation Therapy Alone for Stage 1 and 2 MALT (Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue) Lymphoma

This trial studies the side effects of radiation therapy used alone, and if it can achieve a high cure rate in the treatment of patients with MALT lymphoma. Radiation therapy uses high energy sources to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. This treatment may improve the patient's lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. To determine the efficacy and toxicity of radiation therapy alone in treating stage 1 and 2 MALT lymphoma for newly diagnosed patients and for the patients who failed other treatment modalities.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo radiation therapy once daily (QD) 5 times weekly over 3.5-5 weeks.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 6-8 weeks, and then every 3-4 months for year 1, every 4-6 months for year 2, every 6 months for years 3 and 4, and once yearly thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Relapse-free Survival (RFS)

    RFS was defined as the time in months from the date of study entry until the last follow-up or death, with all deaths censored. Kaplan-Meier curves were estimated for the survival distributions.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 10 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Median Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization to progression or death. Kaplan-Meier curves were estimated for the survival distributions.

    Measured: 17.5 years

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS) at 10 Years

    PFS events is the time in months and defined as any lymphoma relapse ( lymphoma that comes back after successful treatment and a period of remission) or death from any cause. Kaplan-Meier curves were estimated for the survival distributions.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 10 years

  3. 10 Year Overall Survival (OS)

    Overall Survival is the time in months from start of study treatment to date of death due to any cause. Overall survival rates are estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method.

    Measured: Through study completion, up to 10 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Radiation Therapy in people with Ann Arbor Stage I Extranodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma of Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue and Ann Arbor Stage II Extranodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma of Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 2 Mar 2022. 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 2 Mar 2022). 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?

Relapse-free Survival (RFS) (time frame: Through study completion, up to 10 years). 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 NCT04465162, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Mar 2022.
