Non-randomized Safety Study With Bortezomib/Rituximab in Relapsed/Refractory Indolent Lymphoma — LYM-2023  

Lymphoma Clinical Trial

Official title: A Phase II Multicenter Non-randomized Study to Assess Safety, Toxicity and Clinical Activity of the Association of Bortezomib(VELCADE)With Rituximab in Relapsed/Refractory Indolent Non Follicular and Mantle-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The promising activity of Bortezomib as single agent in low grade lymphoma patients in small studies has led to a number of larger multicenter trials with Bortezomib in combination with Rituximab in mantle-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma and marginal zone lymphoma.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a open label, non randomized, phase II , multicenter, prospective trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of bortezomib and rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory rituximab naïve or sensitive indolent non-follicular and mantle cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Despite of the availability of treatment for this disease, this study is justified because no known therapies are really curative and it is necessary to look for new treatment options to improve the clinical outcome and prognosis of relapsed indolent lymphoma. This study is designed for patients not eligible for high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cells transplantation. ;
