Clinical Trial Summary

1. To observe and compare the overall response rate (ORR) of baseline BEACOPP and ABVD regimens for patients with advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma.

2. To evaluate the safety of Natulan® in Chinese patients with advanced Hodgkin's lymphoma

Description:

This is a confirmatory open-label, randomized, controlled, multicenter study. Recruited subjects are to be randomized to treatment group and controlled group, with ratio of 1:1. Treatment group will accept baseline BEACOPP regimen, while controlled group will accept ABVD regimen.

The study design consisted of a screening phase of 1 week, a treatment phase of 24 or 32 weeks, and a post treatment follow-up of at least 2 years.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• The subject is of age 18~65, both male and female;

• Newly pathologically diagnosed with classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (lymphocyte depletion type, lymphocyte rich type, nodular sclerosing type, and mixed cellularity type), who had not accepted previous treatment;

• Had stage IIB, III or IV disease, as assessed by the Ann Arbor classification;

• ECOG=2, life expectancy =3 month;

• A negative serum pregnancy test required for sexually active women of childbearing potential;

• The subject voluntarily gives written informed consent to participate in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Hematopoietic function:

• Leukocyte <3,500/mm3(3.5×109/L)

• Neutrophils <1,500/mm3(1.5×109/L)

• Platelets <100,000/mm3(100×109/L)

• History of severe lung disease;

• AST or ALT>2.5×ULN,total bilirubin=1.5×ULN,serum creatinine>1.5×ULN (for subject with liver metastases: AST or ALT>5xULN, total bilirubin = 3xULN);

• Uncontrolled, systemic, active infection;

• Positive serology to HIV;

• HBsAg positive subjects can still be enrolled in the study, but researchers should follow "The consensus on the Treatment of Lymphoma with Hepatitis B Infections" to observe closely and/or provide prophylactic anti-HBV therapy (as per investigator's decision);

• The subject is receiving an investigational drug, or has participated in an investigational study within 30 days prior to screening;

• The subject is pregnant or lactating; or subjects of childbearing potential (both women and man subjects) do not want to take effective contraceptive measures during study period or within 3 months after study completes;

• Investigators believe subjects not suitable to participate in the study for other reasons.
