Zevalin-BEAM/BEAC With Autologous Stem Cell Support as Consolidation in First Line Treatment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma

May 3, 2012 updated by: Oslo University Hospital

High-dose Therapy With Autologous Stem Cell Support in First Line Treatment of Mantle Cell Lymphoma- 90Y-Ibritumomab Tiuxetan in Combination With BEAM or BEAC to Improve Outcome for Patients Not in CR After Induction Treatment

The purpose of the study is to determine if outcome for patients with mantle cell lymphoma is improved by adding radioimmunotherapy to high-dose regimen before auto-transplant in patients who are not in CR after induction therapy.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Mantle cell lymphoma is considered to have the worst outcome of all non-Hodgkins lymphomas. Since 1997, the Nordic Lymphoma Group has conducted phase II studies in order to improve the results for this lymphoma subtype. The first study included high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell support in the first line of treatment. The results showed the importance of a high quality response to pre-transplant induction treatment, and that CHOP-based regimen alone did not achieve this. Thus, the second trial was designed to improve remissions by including Rituximab and high-dose Ara-C. Results now show that a high rate of molecular remission in the bone marrow was achieved, and the 3-year FFS was improved in comparison to the first study (80% vs 24%). Furthermore, patient who had a molecular relapse (t(11;14) or IgV-gene) were treated with 4 doses of Rituximab and many converted back to be PCR negative.

The present and thus third phase II study aims to improve the high-dose regimen by adding Zevalin radioimmunotherapy in patients who are not in CR prior to transplant. Data from the last trial show that patients not in CR at this point have a worse outcome (3 year FFS of 63%, vs 85% for CR patients). Monitoring for molecular relapse in the bone marrow will be done, and patients who become PCR positive will be treated with Rituximab in order to evaluate the value of this strategy.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  1. Age 18 - 65 years.
  2. Histologically confirmed (according to the WHO classification) mantle cell lymphoma stage II-IV at time point of diagnosis. The diagnosis has to be confirmed by phenotypic expression of CD5, CD20 and cyclin-D1 and most cases will have t(11;14) translocation.
  3. No previous treatment for lymphoma except radiotherapy or one cycle of any regimen and except patients treated in the previous phase II study who can be transferred to NLG-MCL-III before evaluation at week 15.
  4. WHO performance status of 0 - 3.
  5. Life expectancy of more than 3 months.
  6. Written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Severe cardiac disease: cardiac function grade 3-4 (Appendix 1).
  2. Impaired liver, renal or other organ function not caused by lymphoma, which will interfere with the treatment.
  3. Pregnancy/lactation
  4. Men or woman of reproductive potential not agreeing to use acceptable method of birth control during treatment and for six moths after completion of treatment.
  5. Known HIV positivity
  6. Any other prior malignancy than non-melanoma skin cancer or stage 0 (in situ) cervical carcinoma.
  7. Known seropositivity for HCV, HbsAg or other active infection uncontrolled by treatment.
  8. Psychiatric illness or condition which could interfere with their ability to understand the requirements of the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
