简要总结
This phase III trial studies rituximab and yttrium Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan to see how well they work compared to rituximab alone in treating patients with untreated follicular lymphoma. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Radioactive substances linked to monoclonal antibodies can bind to cancer cells and give off radiation which may help kill cancer cells. It is not yet known whether rituximab works better with or without yttrium Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan in treating follicular lymphoma.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. Test the hypothesis that a single dose of Zevalin (yttrium Y-90 ibritumomab tiuxetan) rituximab immunotherapy (RIT) will increase the complete remission (CR) rate over that achieved with standard rituximab in patients with untreated asymptomatic follicular lymphoma (FL).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Test the hypothesis that Zevalin RIT will improve progression-free survival. II. Test the hypothesis that Zevalin RIT will improve time to next (any) therapy and time to next chemotherapy.

- •Willing to travel to a radioimmunotherapy site for Zevalin, if necessary
- •Willing to return to the enrolling institution for follow-up (during the Active Monitoring Phase of the study); Note: during the Active Monitoring Phase of a study (i.e., active treatment and observation), participants must be willing to return to the consenting institution for follow-up
- •Willing to provide blood samples at baseline for correlative research purposes and tissue for central pathology review
- •< 25% bone marrow involvement of cellular marrow with lymphoma as determined by bilateral bone marrow aspirate and biopsy; NOTE: the percent involvement should be estimated by the hematopathologist using all of the biopsy material
- •Has insurance coverage or is willing to pay for protocol therapy (rituximab x 4 or Zevalin x 1)
排除标准
- •Any of the following because this study involves an agent whose genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown:
- •Pregnant women
- •Nursing women
- •Men or women of childbearing potential who are unwilling to employ adequate contraception for at least three months after completing study treatment
- •Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens
- •Patients known to be human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive and currently receiving antiretroviral therapy
- •NOTE: These patients are excluded because it is unknown what effects prolonged B-cell depletion will have on these patient's immune system
- •Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
- •Receiving any other investigational agent that would be considered as a treatment for the lymphoma
- •Active other malignancy requiring treatment that would interfere with the assessments of response of the lymphoma to protocol treatment and would interfere with follow-up assessments through year 5

- •Abnormal renal function (serum creatinine > 2 x ULN)

结局指标
主要结局
Complete Response (CR) Rate at the 6-month Disease Assessment
时间窗: 6 months
Will be compared between the two arms. The percentage of patients in each response category (e.g., CR, partial remission, stable disease, relapse/progressive disease) will also be tabulated by arm. The proportion of patients who have a CR at 6 months will be evaluated and compared between the two treatment regimens using a two-sided alpha=0.05 continuity corrected Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test with stratification factors.
