S0816 Fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT Imaging and Combination Chemotherapy With or Without Additional Chemotherapy and G-CSF in Treating Patients With Stage III or Stage IV Hodgkin Lymphoma

August 16, 2022 updated by: Southwest Oncology Group

A Phase II Trial of Response-Adapted Therapy of Stage III-IV Hodgkin Lymphoma Using Early Interim FDG-PET Imaging

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells. G-CSF may help lessen the side effects in patients receiving chemotherapy. Imaging procedures, such as fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT imaging, may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT imaging to see how well it works in assessing response to combination chemotherapy and allow doctors to plan better additional further treatment in treating patients with stage III or stage IV Hodgkin lymphoma.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To estimate the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) of HIV-negative patients with stage III-IV Hodgkin lymphoma treated with response-adapted therapy based on fludeoxyglucose F 18 (FDG)-PET imaging after 2 courses of doxorubicin hydrochloride, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD).
  • To estimate the 2-year PFS of patients who are PET-positive after treatment with 2 courses of ABVD and an escalated dose regimen comprising cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride, etoposide, vincristine sulfate, bleomycin, procarbazine hydrochloride, and prednisone (BEACOPP).

Secondary

  • To estimate the 2-year overall survival (OS) of patients treated with these regimens.
  • To estimate the response rate (i.e., complete and partial responses) in patients treated with these regimens.
  • To evaluate the toxicity of these response-adapted regimens.
  • To document the feasibility of centralized, real-time review of FDG-PET imaging for U.S. cooperative group studies.
  • To prospectively evaluate the overall response rate, complete response rate, PFS, and OS of HIV-positive patients treated with these response-adapted regimens.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

All patients undergo baseline whole-body fludeoxyglucose F 18 (FDG)-PET/CT imaging before beginning chemotherapy. Patients then receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV, bleomycin IV, vinblastine IV, and dacarbazine IV (ABVD) on days 1 and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Between days 22 and 25 of course 2, patients undergo a second FDG-PET/CT scan to assess response. Subsequent therapy is based on FDG-PET/CT scan results. Patients are stratified according to FDG-PET positivity (yes vs no). Patients who are FDG-PET-negative continue treatment with ABVD for up to 4 additional courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who are FDG-PET-positive are then further stratified according to HIV positivity (yes or no) and receive 1 of the following treatment regimens:

  • Escalated-dose BEACOPP chemotherapy: HIV-negative patients receive escalated-dose BEACOPP chemotherapy comprising doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1, etoposide IV on days 1-3, oral procarbazine hydrochloride on days 1-7, oral prednisone on days 1-14, and bleomycin IV and vincristine IV on day 8. Patients receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously on days 8-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
  • Standard-dose BEACOPP chemotherapy: HIV-positive patients receive standard dose BEACOPP chemotherapy comprising doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1, etoposide IV on days 1-3, oral procarbazine hydrochloride on days 1-7, oral prednisone on days 1-14, and bleomycin IV and vincristine IV on day 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Six to eight weeks after completion of chemotherapy, patients undergo a post-treatment FDG-PET/CT scan.

Some patients may undergo bone marrow biopsy at 1 month after the last course of chemotherapy.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically for 7 years.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of HIV-negative Patients With 2-year Progression-free Survival (PFS) Treated With 2 Initial Cycles of Adriamycin, Bleomycin, Vnblastine, and Dacarbazine (ABVD) Followed by Response-adapted Therapy Based on Interim FDG-PET Imaging.
Time Frame: 2 years
Disease progression is defined using the 2007 revised Cheson et al. criteria that is at least 50% increase in sum of the product of the diameters (SPD) of target measurable nodal lesions over the smallest sum observed, or >= 50% increase in greatest transverse diameter (GTD) of any nodal > 1 cm in shortest axis, or >= 50% increase in the SPD of other target measurable lesions over the smallest sum observed, any new bone marrow involvement, any new lesion, lymph node with long axis is > 1.5 cm or if both long and short axes are > 1 cm, PET positive if patients with no pretreatment PET scan or when PET scan was positive before therapy. Progression-free survival is measured from date of registration to date of first observation of progressive disease, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and progression-free are censored at date of last contact.
2 years
Percentage of HIV-negative Patients Who Are PET-positive After 2 Cycles of ABVD With 2-year PFS
Time Frame: 2 years
Disease progression is defined using the 2007 revised Cheson et al. criteria that is at least 50% increase in sum of the product of the diameters (SPD) of target measurable nodal lesions over the smallest sum observed, or >= 50% increase in greatest transverse diameter (GTD) of any nodal > 1 cm in shortest axis, or >= 50% increase in the SPD of other target measurable lesions over the smallest sum observed, any new bone marrow involvement, any new lesion, lymph node with long axis is > 1.5 cm or if both long and short axes are > 1 cm, PET positive if patients with no pretreatment PET scan or when PET scan was positive before therapy. Progression-free survival is measured from date of registration to date of first observation of progressive disease, or death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and progression-free are censored at date of last contact.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of HIV-negative Patients With 2-year Overall Survival (OS) Treated With 2 Initial Cycles of ABVD Followed by Response-Adapted Therapy Based on Interim FDG-PET Imaging
Time Frame: 2 years
Measured from date of registration to date of death due to any cause. Patients last known to be alive and are censored at date of last contact.
2 years
Complete and Partial Response Rates for HIV-negative Patients Treated With Response- Adapted Therapy Based on FDG-PET Imaging After 2 Cycles of ABVD
Time Frame: 7 months after registration
Complete Response (CR) is a complete disappearance of all disease with the exception of the following. If no PET scan or when the PET scan was positive before therapy, a post-treatment residual mass of any size is permitted if it is PET negative. If the PET scan was negative before therapy, all nodal masses at baseline must have regressed. No new lesions. Previously enlarged organs must have regressed and not be palpable. Bone marrow (BM) must be negative if positive at baseline. Normalization of markers. Partial Response (PR) is a 50% decrease in the sum of products of greatest diameters (SPD) for up to 6 identified dominant lesions, including spleenic and hepatic nodules from baseline. No new lesions and no increase in the size of liver, spleen or other nodes. If PET scan or when the PET scan was positive before therapy, PET should be positive in at least one previously involved site.
7 months after registration
