Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study of MabThera/Rituxan (Rituximab) in Patients With Relapsed Centroblastic Centrocytic Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NCT NCT01998893)

NCT ID: NCT01998893

Last Updated: 2014-12-03

Results Overview

Percentage of participants with a CR, PR at the end of the first cycle of treatment (Week 4). CR was defined as the complete disappearance of all objective disease findings, including enlarged lymph nodes, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly for at least 4 weeks, and a normalization of blood counts with granulocytes \>1.500/ microliter (µL), hemoglobin (Hb) \>12 grams per deciliter (g/dL), and platelets \>100,000/µL. PR was defined as a less than (\<) 50% regression of all measurable and evaluable lymphoma manifestations (sum of the products of the 2 largest diameters vertical to each other) for at least 4 weeks without the appearance of new manifestations, and normalization of blood counts.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Treatment start until progression of disease or last available follow-up. The median length of follow-up was 6.6 months (range: 0-97.8 months)

Population: ITT population

Percentage of participants with a CR, PR at the end of the first cycle of treatment (Week 4). CR was defined as the complete disappearance of all objective disease findings, including enlarged lymph nodes, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly for at least 4 weeks, and a normalization of blood counts with granulocytes \>1.500/ microliter (µL), hemoglobin (Hb) \>12 grams per deciliter (g/dL), and platelets \>100,000/µL. PR was defined as a less than (\<) 50% regression of all measurable and evaluable lymphoma manifestations (sum of the products of the 2 largest diameters vertical to each other) for at least 4 weeks without the appearance of new manifestations, and normalization of blood counts.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Treatment start until progression of disease or last available follow-up. The median length of follow-up was 6.6 months (range: 0-97.8 months)

Population: ITT population

Clinical response was defined as the best response after the first 4 weeks of treatment cycle by the following categories: CR, PR, minor response (MR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease (PD). CR was defined as the complete disappearance of all objective disease findings, including enlarged lymph nodes, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly for at least 4 weeks, and a normalization of blood counts with granulocytes \>1,500/μL, Hb \>12 g/dL, and platelets \>100,000/μL. PR was defined as \<50% regression of all measurable and evaluable lymphoma manifestations (sum of the products of the 2 largest diameters vertical to each other) for at least 4 weeks without the appearance of new manifestations, and normalization of blood counts. MR was defined as tumor regression ≥25% and \<50%. SD was defined as tumor regression \<25%, no new manifestations, and progression ≤25%. PD was defined as no new lymphoma associated symptoms or an increase in the size of manifestations by more than 25%.
