Clinical Trial Summary

Patients will receive a standard 5 mCi dosimetric dose of fission-derived Iodine I 131 Tositumomab. Pharmacokinetic data for the primary endpoint analysis will be derived from testing done on blood samples drawn at 12 timepoints over the first 7 days following administration of the dosimetric dose. Whole body gamma camera images will be obtained on six days following the dosimetric dose. Organ and tumor dosimetry data will be generated from gamma camera counts of specific organs and tumor. All scans will be examined by an independent review panel to evaluate biodistribution of the radionuclide.

Using the dosimetric data from three of the six imaging time points and the patient's weight, a patient-specific activity (mCi) of Iodine-131 will be calculated to deliver the desired total body dose of radiation (75 cGy). Patients will receive an infusion of unlabeled Tositumomab (450 mg) immediately followed by an infusion of the patient specific dose of tellurium-derived Iodine I 131 Tositumomab (35 mg) to deliver a total body dose (TBD) of 75 cGy. Patients will be followed closely obtaining safety information during the post-treatment period, and for response and safety at 3,6,and 12 months during the first year, annually thereafter up to five years, and annually for additional safety and outcomes information up to 10 years.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Area Under the Curve (AUC) at 0 to 120, 0 to 168, and 0 to Infinity Hours	Area under the concentration-time curve for 131I-tositumomab from time 0 to 120, 0 to 168, and time 0 to infinity hours (extrapolated), after the end of the dosimetric dose infusion. Unit: %ID.h/mL, where %ID/mL is the percentage of the injected dose per milliliter blood. AUC measures how much drug is in the system over time after infusion.	0-120, 0-168, and 0-infinity hours from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Primary	Maximum Concentration (Cmax) Values	Cmax is the maximum observed 131I-tositumomab concentration from time zero (end of the dosimetric dose infusion) to 7 days after the end of the infusion. Unit: %ID/mL, where %ID/mL is the percentage of the injected dose per milliliter blood. Cmax is the highest drug concentration in the blood after infusion.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Primary	Terminal Phase Half-life (t½)	The terminal phase half-life of 131 I tositumomab in hours. Half-life measures how long it takes for the concentration of drug in the blood to decrease by half.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Primary	Clearance (CL) Values	Clearance of 131I-tositumomab after intravenous administration. The clearance of a drug measures the rate at which the drug is removed from the body after the dose.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose given only once on Day 0	No
Primary	Volume of Distribution at Steady State (Vss)	Volume of distribution at steady state of 131I-tositumomab. Volume of distribution measures how much the drug spreads through the body after the dose.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose given only once on Day 0	No
Secondary	Area Under the Curve (AUC) at 0 to 120 Hours	Area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to 120 hours after the end of the dosimetric dose infusion. Unit: %ID.h/mL, where %ID/mL is the percentage of the injected dose per milliliter blood. AUC measures how much drug is in the system over time after infusion.	0-120 hours from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Area Under the Curve (AUC) at 0 to 168 Hours	Ratio and 90% confidence interval for AUC(0-168) after dosimetric dose of fission-derived 131I-tositumomab to historical data from tellurium-derived 131I-tositumomab. AUC measures how much drug is in the blood over time after the dose.	0-168 h from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Area Under the Curve (AUC) at 0 to Infinity (Extrapolated)	Ratio and 90% CI for AUC (0 to infinity) after dosimetric dose of fission-derived 131I-tositumomab to historical data from tellurium derived 131I-tositumomab. AUC measures how much drug is in the blood over time after the dose is given.	0 to infinity h from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Maximum Concentration (Cmax) Values	Maximum observed concentration from time zero (end of the dosimetric dose infusion) to 7 days after the end of the infusion. Unit: %ID/mL, where %ID/mL is the percentage of the injected dose per milliliter blood. Cmax is the highest drug concentration in the blood after the dose.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Mean Residence Times From Day 0 to Day 7	Whole body images from anterior and posterior gamma camera scans were collected to assess dosimetry. Assessment of organ dosimetry required gamma camera scans from at least 4 time points. Nuclear medicine reviewers conducted a visual examination of the gamma camera scans and calculated the total body residence times. Residence time is calculated from the rate of total body clearance of iodine I-131 radioactivity during the dosimetric dose. Residence time is a measure of how long the drug resides in the body.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Mean Absorbed Dose in the Source Organs and the Target Organs	The radiation absorbed dose to source organs were determined with Organ Level Internal Dose Assessment/Exponential Modeling (OLINDA/EXM) software using residence times directly determined by an independent reviewer for kidneys, liver, lungs, spleen, urinary bladder, and total body; the radiation absorbed dose for the remaining target organs was based on a mathematical model used to calculate source organ radiation dose estimates using the same OLINDA/EXM software. OLINDA/EXM is a registered proprietary computer program.	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose	No
Secondary	Number of Participants With Expected Distribution of Radioactivity in the Circulatory System Compared With Uptake by Other Organs.	Expected biodistribution (images): most radioactivity (RA) in blood pool, with uptake in normal liver and spleen less than the heart. Later time points, RA in blood pool decrease and uptake in normal liver and spleen decrease. Images may show uptake by the thyroid gland, kidneys, urinary bladder, and lungs. Altered biodistribution: Blood pool not visualized or diffuse, intense uptake in the liver and/or spleen, or uptake suggestive of urinary obstruction, diffuse lung uptake greater than the blood pool	0 to 7 days from dosimetric dose (given only once on Day 0)	No
Secondary	Percentage of Participants Evaluable for Confirmed Response With Complete Response (CR), CR Unconfirmed (CRu), Partial Response (PR), Stable Disease (SD), and Progressive Disease (PD)	Evaluation based on the Int'l Workshop to Standardize Response Criteria for non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL). CR, complete disappearance of all detectable clinical/radiographic evidence of disease, disappearance of all disease-related symptoms if present before therapy, and normalization of biochemical abnormalities definitely assignable to NHL. CRu, complete response unconfirmed, included complete disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease, disappearance of all disease-related symptoms if present before therapy, and normalization of those biochemical abnormalities definitely assignable to NHL. PR, >=50% decrease in sum of perpendicular diameters (SPD) of all measurable lesions determined at baseline. SD, less than a PR but not progressive disease (>=50% increase from nadir in SPD for all measurable disease or the appearance of any new lesion that was >=1.4 cm x 1.4 cm by radiographic evaluation or >=1.0 cm by palpation per physical examination).	From Baseline up to 99 Months	No
Secondary	Duration of Response	Duration of response is defined as the time from first documented response (CR, CRu, or PR) until disease progression.	Week 7 to Week 260 post treatment	No
Secondary	Progression-free Survival	Progression-free survival, or time to progression, is defined as the time from the dosimetric dose to the first documented disease progression (PD) or death. PD is defined as a >= 50% increase from nadir in the SPPD for all measurable disease.	Week 7 to Week 260 post treatment	No
Secondary	Overall Survival	Time to death is defined as the time from the dosimetric dose to the date of death.	Week 7 to Week 260 post treatment	No
