What this trial tests
Phase 2 trial testing Rituximab in Lymphoma in 67 participants. Completed in 11 August 2017.
Adults 16 to 60, any sex, with Lymphoma. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.
Results — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov
Per-arm endpoint measurements with 95% confidence intervals where reported. Source: trial results section.
Response Rate R-HCVAD vs. R-CHOPPrimary· 3 years
Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

Progression Free Survival (Rate)Secondary· 3 years post-therapy
Progression free survival (PFS) for three years following therapy with Rituxan-HCVAD alternating with Rituximab with high -dose methotrexate/ara-C and standard R-CHOP in patients with newly diagnosed B-cell aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphomas younger than 60 years old and with adjusted IPI 2 or higher adverse prognostic features.

Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov
Time frame: From the initiation of the regimen until the end of chemotherapy, an average of 3 years.
Reporting threshold: 0%.
Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.
The overall goal of this clinical research study was to find out which of two different chemotherapy drug combinations, R-CHOP and R-HCVAD, is more effective in treating B-cell lymphoma.
At this point, all participants will now be assigned to the R-HCVAD arm of the study. Researchers will study the safety and effectiveness of this drug combination.
