Trial Outcomes & Findings for Cyclosporine in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Angioimmunoblastic T-Cell Lymphoma (NCT NCT00070291)

NCT ID: NCT00070291

Last Updated: 2023-06-29

Results Overview

Response was assessed based upon the criteria from the International Workshop to Standardize Criteria for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Response included complete response and partial response. Complete response was defined as complete disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease and disappearance of all disease related B-symptoms if present prior to therapy, as well as normalization of those biochemical abnormalities definitely attributed to NHL. All lymph nodes and nodal masses must have regressed to normal size. Partial response was defined as a decrease of \> 50% in the SPD (sum of the products of the diameters) of the six largest (or less) dominant nodes or nodal masses, no increase in the size of the liver or the spleen, and no new sites of disease.

Measure
Cyclosporine
Cyclosporine doses will be based on actual body weight unless actual body weight is \> 15 kg higher than the ideal body weight. Cyclosporine dose will be adjusted to maintain a trough whole blood level of 250-450 ng/mL during the high dose period (weeks 1 -6) and 150-250 ng/mL during the maintenance period (weeks 7-36) in the absence of renal toxicity. High dose cyclosporine weeks 1-6, then maintenance dose cyclosporine weeks 7-36. If CR, PR, or SD at week 36 evaluation, treatment is complete. If progression occurs during weeks 7-36, patients will re-register to Step 2 at time of PD and begin high dose therapy (weeks 1-6), followed by maintenance therapy (weeks 7-36). At second progression patients will end protocol treatment.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Assessed at weeks 6, 12, 24 and 36 from onset of treatment, and then at 1 year, 18 months, 2 years and 3 years from registration during follow-up.
