Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Clinical Trial

Official title: SPINOZA / שפינוזה. Study With Preparatory INduction Of Zevalin in Aggressive Lymphoma. A Randomized Phase 3 Study of BEAM Versus 90Yttrium Ibritumomab Tiuxetan (Zevalin) / BEAM in Patients Requiring ASCT for Relapsed DLBCL

Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and combination chemotherapy compared with combination chemotherapy alone before stem cell transplant in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has returned after a period of improvement. Radioactive substances linked to monoclonal antibodies, such as 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan, can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carmustine, etoposide phosphate, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM), work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan and BEAM before a stem cell transplant are more effective than BEAM alone in treating patients with diffuse large b-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare overall survival (OS) between the two transplant arms, with at least a two year of follow-up. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare progression-free survival (PFS), complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) proportion at day 100, time to hematopoietic recovery, incidence of infection, grade III-IV toxicities, treatment-related mortality, incidence of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and secondary acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM I: Patients receive rituximab intravenously (IV) on days -21 and -14, and 90-yttrium ibritumomab tiuxetan IV on day -14. Patients also receive BEAM comprising carmustine IV over 4 hours on day -6; cytarabine IV over 2 hours twice daily (BID) on days -5 to -2; etoposide IV over 1 hour BID or once daily (QD) on days -5 to -2; and melphalan IV on day -1. Patients then undergo peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant on day 0. ARM II: Patients receive BEAM as in Arm I and undergo PBSC transplant on day 0.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up weekly for 30 days, 100 days, 6 months, 1 year, every 3 months for 1 year, and then annually for 3 years. ;
