Study Overview

Brief Summary

Objective:

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of R-mabHDI in patients with late stage, widespread stage and recurrent Lymphocytic Predominant Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

The hypothesis is that the combination of R-mabHDI with the standard ABVD therapy in patients with late stage (Stage III and Stage IV) and recurrent stage Lymphocytic Predominant Hodgkin's Lymphoma will have a favorable outcome on the response and progress free survival. The study is also aimed at evaluating the safety of R-mabHDI .

The aim of the study is to test this hypothesis by evaluating the clinical outcome in 1200 patients receiving combination of R-mabHDI once a week for 8 weeks and ABVD therapy every other week for 12 treatments.

Detailed Description

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of R-mabHDI in Patients with late stage, widespread stage and recurrent Lymphocytic Predominant Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

The hypothesis is that the combination of R-mabHDI with the standard ABVD therapy in patients with late stage (Stage III and Stage IV) and recurrent stage Lymphocytic Predominant Hodgkin's Lymphoma will have a favorable outcome on the response and progress free survival. The study is also aimed at evaluating the safety of R-mabHDI .

A total of 1200 subjects will be recruited to the study from various centers. Enrollment period will last for up to one and half year and treatment period is for six months. Treatment will be considered a failure if the tumor size and signs of LPHD does not decrease after 3 months.

Subjects having late stage HD, widespread HD or recurrent HD fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be recruited in this study. Females who are nursing babies or are pregnant will be excluded from the study.

All subjects will receive the drugs according to the randomization process. The eligible subjects will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 "treatment" groups after screening. No matter which group the subjects are assigned to, the doses of the drugs will be the standard doses that are currently used to treat lymphoma.
