Bevacizumab and Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma or Natural Killer Cell Neoplasms

Phase 2

Conditions

Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00217425
Lead Sponsor
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group
Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving bevacizumab together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving bevacizumab together with several chemotherapy drugs (combination chemotherapy) works in treating patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma or natural killer cell neoplasms.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

* Determine the 12-month progression-free survival of patients with peripheral T-cell or natural killer cell neoplasms treated with bevacizumab and combination chemotherapy comprising cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (A-CHOP).

Secondary

* Determine the overall response rate (complete remission \[CR, unconfirmed CR, or functional CR\] and partial remission) in these patients after courses 3, 6, and 8 of this treatment regimen.

* Determine the overall survival of patients treated with this regimen.

* Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive 6-8 cycles of A-CHOP followed by 8 cycles of maintenance bevacizumab (MA), as outlined below. Bevacizumab 15 mg/kg is administered on day 1 over 90 min (first cycle), 60 min (second cycle) and 30 min for the subsequent cycles. CHOP (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m 2 ; doxorubicin 50 mg/m 2 ; vincristine 1.4 mg/m2 \[max. 2 mg\]; prednisone 100 mg daily on days 1-5) is administered on day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Radiographic response is assessed after cycles 3, 6 and 8 of ACHOP and after cycle 8 of MA. Patients receive six cycles of ACHOP if they achieve a complete response (CR) after three cycles, eight cycles if they achieve a partial response (PR) after three cycles. Non-responders are removed from the study. ACHOP responders receive maintenance bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every 21 days for eight cycles.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for up to 5 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 43 patients will be accrued for this study within 22 months.
