NCT ID: NCT00398112

Last Updated: 2014-05-14

Results Overview

National Cancer Institute working group criteria (NCIWG) was used to assess response.\> * CR: no lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly or constitutional symptoms; normal complete blood count; confirmed by bone marrow (BM) aspirate \& biopsy\> * PR: 50% decrease in peripheral blood lymphocytes, lymphadenopathy, liver/spleen size, presence/absence of constitutional symptoms; plus ≥1 of the following: ≥1500/μL polymorphonuclear leukocytes, \>100000/μL platelets, \>11.0 g/dL hemoglobin or 50% improvement for these parameters without transfusions

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Duration of study (up to 2 years)

Survival time was defined as the time from registration to death due to any cause. The distribution of survival time was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Survival Time
20.6 Months
Interval 8.0 to
The upper limit of 95% confidence interval of median survival time has not been attained because of the insufficient number of participants with events.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Duration of study (up to 2 years)

Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as the time from registration to progression or death due to any cause. The distribution of PFS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.

Interval 1.8 to 4.6

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Duration on study (up 2 years)

Population: No participants had a confirmed response, there for this analysis cannot be completed.

Duration of response was calculated from the documentation (date) of first response (CR or PR) until the date of progression or last follow-up in the subset of patients who responded. The median duration of response with 95%CI was estimated using the Kaplan Meier method
