R-CVP for the Treatment of Non-conjunctival Ocular Adnexal MALT Lymphoma (OAML)

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Lymphoma
Interventions
Drug: rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisolone
Registration Number
NCT01427114
Lead Sponsor
Konkuk University Medical Center
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine how efficient the combination of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisolone (R-CVP) is in the treatment of stage I or II non-conjunctival ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma (OAML).

Detailed Description

The treatment of stage I or II OAML is mainly composed of radiotherapy because chemotherapy including cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisolone (CVP) did not show the acceptable response rate compared with radiotherapy. However, radiotherapy for this disease can cause many complications of eyes. This clinical trial was designed to examine the efficacy of R-CVP combination therapy as a first-line treatment for stage I or II non-conjunctival OAML aiming to avoid radiation hazard and increase the efficacy of CVP chemotherapy.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Performance status: ECOG 0-2

  • Adequate hematological function: hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL,, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/μL, and platelet count ≥100,000/μL, unless abnormalities are due to bone marrow involvement by the lymphoma

  • Active uncontrolled infection (HIV, hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, active Tuberculosis, active bacterial, or active fungal infection)

  • Any other malignancies within the past 5 years except for curatively treated non-melanoma skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri

  • Known hypersensitivity to any of the study drugs or its ingredients (i.e., hypersensitivity to Polysorbate 20, CHO cell products, or recombinant human antibodies)

  • Concomitant administration of any other experimental drug under investigation or concomitant chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or immunotherapy
