About this study

Official title: Optimization of the First-line Therapy of T-cell Lymphomas

There is no data comparing the effectiveness of the 4 most relevant first-line therapy programs for peripheral T-cell lymphomas (CHOEP, CHOP, CHEP-BV, CHP-BV) in a single study.

For the first time, the effectiveness and toxicity of various first-line PTCL therapy programs in patients with T-cell lymphoma will be analyzed in the conditions of a single medical center of the N.N.Petrov National Research Medical Center of Oncology and optimal therapeutic tactics will be determined, taking into account significant prognostic factors based on effectiveness and toxicity a specific chemotherapy regimen.

Read the detailed description

A non-randomized retrospective cohort study with prospective inclusion is planned.

Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of PTCL (who meet the inclusion criteria) who were treated at the same center of the NN Petrov National Medical Cancer Research Center from 2013 to 2024, depending on the first-line therapy regimen, will be included in the retrospective part of the study and divided into 2 groups: Group 1: CHOEP regimen Group 2: CHOP regimen

The prospective part of this study is planned to include patients (who meet the inclusion criteria) who are hospitalized at the NN Petrov National Medical Cancer Research Center for treatment from January 2024 to January 2027. Patients will be divided into 2 groups depending on the chemotherapy regimen:

Group 3: chemoimmunotherapy according to the CHP-BV regimen Group 4: chemoimmunotherapy according to the CHEP-BV regimen Based on the data from the medical documentation of patients, the main statistical indicators of the effectiveness of first-line treatment regimens will be calculated using objective methods for assessing the antitumor effect (PET CT, CT), the toxicity of each of the regimens will be assessed, as well as possible prognostic factors for all patient groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. complete response rate

    • Primary endpoints: the complete response rate - The count of participants with CR per IRF following the completion of study treatment (at end of treatment or at the first assessment after the last dose of study treatment and prior to long-term follow-up) according to the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma.

    Measured: Up to 8 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs)

    Any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigational participant administered a medicinal product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    Measured: Up to 8 months

  2. Progression-free Survival

    The time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of progressive disease (PD), death due to any cause, or receipt of subsequent anticancer chemotherapy to treat residual or progressive disease whichever occurred first.

    Measured: up to 1 year

  3. Overall Survival (OS)

    The time from randomization to death due to any cause.

    Measured: up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Doxorubicin, Vincristine and Etoposide in people with Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma, run by N.N. Petrov National Medical Research Center of Oncology.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

complete response rate (time frame: Up to 8 months). 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 2 Dec 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
