Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether patients who are likely to fail R-CHOP, as predicted by a mid-treatment PET scan, can have an improved outcome if switched to a standard salvage regimen R-ICE (rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide).

Patients who have a negative PET scan after 4 cycles of R-CHOP have an excellent prognosis (\>85% chance of cure) and should complete treatment with 6 cycles of standard R-CHOP. Patients who have a positive PET scan after 4 cycles of R-CHOP have a very poor prognosis (\~10% chance of cure) and may have an improved outcome if switched to a non-cross resistant chemotherapy combination R-ICE.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a phase II trial investigating tailoring first-line therapy for advanced stage diffuse large B-cell NHL (DLBCL) based on a mid-treatment 18F-FDG- positron-emission tomography (PET) scan result. More than half of all patients with DLBCL can be cured with 6-8 cycles of standard R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone). Patients who are not cured with R-CHOP have a very poor prognosis. This study will assess whether patients who are likely to fail R-CHOP, as predicted by a mid-treatment PET scan, can have an improved outcome if switched to a standard salvage regimen R-ICE (rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide).

Objectives:

* To assess the efficacy of tailoring first-line therapy based on a mid- treatment PET scan result for patients with advanced stage DLBCL.
* To assess the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with advanced stage DLBCL who have a negative mid-treatment PET scan and receive standard therapy with six cycles of CHOP-R and patients with a positive mid-treatment PET scan who receive four cycles of CHOP-R followed by four cycles of R-ICE chemotherapy.
* To assess the overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced stage DLBCL who have a negative mid-treatment PET scan and receive standard therapy with six cycles of CHOP-R and patients with a positive mid-treatment PET scan who receive four cycles of CHOP-R followed by four cycles of R-ICE chemotherapy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

R-CHOP (Negative Mid-Treatment PET Scan)

All participants will receive 4 cycles of standard dose R-CHOP chemotherapy administered at 3-weekly intervals. Non-progressing participants will undergo a mid-treatment PET scan along with routine restaging investigations after 4 cycles of R-CHOP. Patients with a negative mid-treatment PET scan (no evidence of abnormal 18F-FDG uptake) will complete therapy with two additional cycles of R-CHOP for a total of 6 cycles of chemotherapy. Patients with a mid-treatment PET scan interpreted to be "indeterminate" or "equivocal" will be recorded as such, but should be considered negative for the purpose of treatment planning and should not prompt a change in therapy.

Patients with a positive post-treatment PET scan corresponding to persistent abnormalities on CT scan will be considered for radiation therapy to PET positive sites.
