CHOEP + High Dose Therapy + Auto SCT for T-Cell Lymphoma

Registration Number
NCT01746173
Lead Sponsor
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Brief Summary

The current standard of care for the frontline treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) is induction chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). However, many patients are unable to get to ASCT or relapse after ASCT, with a poor prognosis. Recently, a novel ASCT conditioning regimen of gemcitabine, busulfan and melphalan (Gem...

Detailed Description

Objectives:

Primary

* To estimate the proportion of patients alive and progression-free at 24 months after beginning induction therapy

Secondary

* To estimate the response rate (complete remission (CR) and partial remission (PR)) after CHOEP x 6 and after Gem/Bu/Mel ASCT

CHOEP + High Dose Therapy + Auto SCTCyclophosphamidePatients received 6 cycles of induction chemotherapy: Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Etoposide and Prednisone (CHOEP) (5 if previously received 1 cycle of CHOP). CHOP was given at standard doses, with a dose of etoposide of 100 mg/m2 intravenously (IV) or 200 mg/m2 orally added on days 1-3 of each cycle. Patients who did not achieve a partial (PR) or complete (CR) remission at restaging after either 3 or 6 cycles were taken off study. Responders after 6 cycles had stem cell (SC) mobilization using filgrastim and plerixafor (if necessary) within 4 weeks of the end of induction. SC mobilization, harvesting, and reinfusion were performed per standard institutional protocol. A minimum collection of 2x106 CD34+ cells/kg was required to proceed to autologous stem cell transplant. Conditioning was comprised of gemcitabine 2700 mg/m2 on days -8 and -3, IV busulfan 105 mg/m2 days -8 to -5, and melphalan 60 mg/m2 given daily on days -3 and -2 (per MD Andersen protocol).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
24-month Progression-Free Survival RateDisease was re-staged at cycles 3 and 6 during induction, at day 100 post-ASCT, and in long-term follow-up at months 12, 18, 24 and 36. All patients were evaluable up to month 24.

24-month progression-free survival rate is defined as the proportion of patients remaining alive and progression-free at 24 months from start of induction therapy. Disease progression was assessed using a combination of CT scans and PET scans. Progression was categorized according to standard lymphoma response criteria, specifically the Revised Response Crit...

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Induction ResponseDisease was re-staged at cycles 3 and 6 during induction. Median duration of induction therapy in this study cohort was 6 cycles/18 weeks (range 2-6 cycles).

Induction response is the defined as the proportion of patients who achieve complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR) during 6 cycles of induction therapy. Response was assessed was using a combination of CT scans and PET scans. Partial and complete response were categorized according to standard lymphoma response criteria, specifically the Revised R...
