"Sandwich" Chemotherapy With Radiotherapy in Newly Diagnosed, Stage IE to IIE, ENKTL

Treatment Refusal Clinical Trial

Official title: Phase 2 Trial of "Sandwich" Pegaspargase-CHOP Chemotherapy With Radiotherapy in Newly Diagnosed, Stage IE to IIE, Nasal Type, Extranodal Natural Killer/T-cell Lymphoma

Status Terminated

Clinical Trial Summary

A phase 2 study was conducted of "sandwich" protocols, with earlier RT after an initial 2 of P-CHOP (Pegaspargase, cyclophosphamide,vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone ), followed by further two "consolidation" cycles,to explore the appropriate mode of combined modality therapy (CMT) in early stage ENKTL.

Clinical Trial Description

The extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) shows high local or systemic failure rates when radiotherapy (RT) is taken as the primary treatment, suggesting a role for chemotherapy (CT) added to RT for this disease. However, the appropriate mode of combined modality therapy (CMT) has not been fully defined.We conducted a prospective phase II study of "Sandwich" Pegaspargase, cyclophosphamide,vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone (P-CHOP) regimen in combination with radiotherapy.The "sandwich" protocols, refer to earlier RT after an initial 2 cycles of P-CHOP followed by further two "consolidation" cycles. ;
