Filter by:The aim of the trial is to evaluate the molecular characteristics and MDD/MRD of B-NHL in pediatric patients in order to identify on the one hand the very high risk group and to prescribe them more intensive treatment on the other hand to identify those patients who don't need very aggressive therapy. One more study question is to evaluate the role of PET/CT in assessment of the completeness of remission. The following primary study questions are going to be analyzed: - the effectiveness (event-free survival) in pediatric patients with very limited mature B-NHL (R1 - stage I and II R) of substituting anthracyclines and vincristine by the rituximab without compromising survival rates. - the effectiveness (event-free survival) in pediatric patients with limited mature B-NHL (R2 - stage I and II NR) of substituting anthracyclines by the rituximab without compromising survival rates. - the effectiveness (event-free survival) in pediatric patients with advanced VHR mature B-NHL (R4 - stages with unfavourable genetics of substituting standard chemotherapy by "second-line" block VICI in order to improve results Secondary study questions will address - additional parameters for immune reconstitution, lymphocyte subpopulations, immunoglobulin levels, vaccination titers and infection rates - kinetics of immune reconstitution after treatment
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of the new treatment proposed in this study. Conducting a prospective study "CNS-2015" in patients with PDLBCL CNS made it possible to achieve 2-year EFS, DFS and OS of 83%, 83% and 88%, respectively. The presence of early relapses of the disease has now led to the need to find an alternative program for patients with PDLBCL CNS. In the new "CNS-2021" protocol, lenalidomide was included in the R-MPV program in order to intensify the induction stage. In the conditioning regimen, thiotepa was replaced by carmustine, due to its significant CNS bioavailability. In order to possibly prevent early relapses, an anti-PD-1 inhibitor (nivolumab) was used as maintenance therapy.
Thi is a prospective and low-intervention clinical trial. We propose to design a panel of "core" genetic alterations by sequencing Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) DNA in patients with confirmed or suspicious Primary Central Neurvous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) with the aim to improve diagnostic sensitivity, response assessment and monitoring early CNS relapse in routine practice. Enrolled patients will receive conventional treatments according to well-established international guidelines, DNA assessments will not influence the treatment choices.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of tirabrutinib monotherapy in patients with relapsed or refractory PCNSL (Part A), and tirabrutinib in combination with one of two different high dose methotrexate based regimens (methotrexate/ temozolomide/rituximab or rituximab/methotrexate/procarbazine/ vincristine) as first line therapy in patients with newly diagnosed, treatment naïve PCNSL (Part B)
This phase I trial evaluates the feasibility of using hyperpolarized carbon C 13 pyruvate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma. This trial aims to see whether MRI using hyperpolarized carbon-13 pyruvate is safe and useful for detecting central nervous system lymphoma and evaluating response to treatment.
- After standard treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), high-dose methotrexate induction therapy, and consolidation therapy, most patients reach complete remission, but within the first 6 months, 35-60% of patients refractory to treatment or experience relapse during the first treatment. - The progression-free survival (PFS) period of relapsed patients is 2.2 months (0-29.6 months), and the survival period is reported as 3.5 months (0-29.6 months). After relapse, the majority of patients die within 2-4 months due to neurologic deterioration - Consolidation therapy after induction therapy includes whole-brain radiation therapy, high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT), and high-dose chemotherapy alone. - However, the median age of the inducing patient is 65 years, and more than half of the patients who are unable to transplant autologous hematopoietic stem cells (auto-SCT) after induction therapy account for more than half. - Therefore, we intend to conduct a study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maintenance therapy for rituximab and lenalidomide as one of the consolidation therapies for patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL).
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is an uncommon disease. Conventional treatment has consisted of either whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT) or methotrexate (MTX)-based combined modality therapy integrating chemotherapy with cranial irradiation in a sandwiched manner. No matter whether the dosage of MTX is high or conventional, combining chemotherapy with WBRT greatly improves intracranial tumor control and even survival outcomes. However, delayed treatment-related neurotoxicity and neurocognitive sequelae emerged as a significant debilitating complication in PCNSL patients, especially when effective combined chemoradiation can achieve disease control and long-term survival rates. Therefore, by delivering hyperfractionated conformal WBRT plus SIB, this prospective cohort study aims to accomplish both optimal intracranial control and minimal WBRT induced neurocognitive decline. Additionally, by administering objective multi-domain neurobehavioral/neurocognitive assessments, the change in neurocognitive functions (NCFs) before and after the course of hyperfractionated conformal WBRT will be investigated and analyzed. According to the treatment guidelines for treating newly-diagnosed PCNSL patients, combined chemoradiation in which the WBRT course is sandwiched between initial courses of MTX and the later courses of chemotherapy with Ara-C is the treatment of mainstay at our institute. Employing the technique of a conformal CT treatment planning, the WBRT course is delivered in the manner of hyperfractionation with a reduced cumulative dose of 3600 cGy in 30 fractions during 3-4 weeks, administered twice daily in 1.2 Gy - fractions with at least 6 hours between fractions. By virtue of multidisciplinary management and teamwork including neurosurgery, hematology, radiation oncology, and neuroimaging expertise, it is attempted to recruit all potentially eligible patients with newly-diagnosed PCNSL. Most importantly, a professional neuropsychologist participates in this research project to integrate neurobehavioral outcomes into the prospective study. Accordingly, a battery of neuropsychological measures is used to evaluate predetermined NCFs for the studied patients. The test battery is composed of six standardized neuropsychological tests, covering four domains sensitive to disease and treatment effects (executive function, attention, verbal memory, information processing). The primary outcome measure is the change in patients' capability of information processing indicated by the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test-Revised (PASAT-R), from the baseline before receiving the WBRT course to the follow-up after undergoing the entire courses of combined chemoradiation. This prospective cohort study aims to thoroughly examine newly diagnosed PCNSL patients by using a standard battery of neurobehavioral/neurocognitive functions. Additionally, a better intracranial disease control is expected since the WBRT course relies on a highly conformal treatment planning integrated with the individualized arrangement of simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) to escalate the focal dose irradiating the originally involved site(s). Moreover, WBRT-related neurocognitive sequelae might be significantly less likely to occur because the WBRT course is delivered in the fashion of hyperfractionation, indicating a significantly lower dose per fraction and a reduced cumulative dose. Furthermore, it is anticipated the investigators will analyze which neurobehavioral domain would predict the treatment-related neurocognitive impacts to the largest extent in newly diagnosed PCNSL patients treated with cranial RT combined with or without MTX based chemotherapy according to the multidisciplinary treatment guidelines implemented at a single institute.
This study was conducted to evaluate the 2-year progression free survival rate of elderly patients with primary CNS lymphoma followed by combination of rituximab and methotrexate followed by rituximab and cytarabine.
Consolidation treatment for Primary Central Nervous System Diffuse Large B cell Lymphoma(PCNSL)patients remains to be defined.Here we designed a tolerated treatment of HDMTX plus Temozolomide,followed by consolidation with Temozolomide in PCNSL patients.
