Brief Summary

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

Most participants with a relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that receive an autologous transplant are likely to suffer a relapse because standard myeloablative preparative regimens are unable to produce a cure. The majority of these participants do not have a stem cell donor available, are too frail to undergo an allogeneic transplant, or refuse an allograft. Historically these participants with high risk non-Hodgkin's lymphoma have had a very poor outcome.

To take advantage of the low transplant related mortality associated with an autologous transplantation, the investigators propose modifying the preparative regimen to make it more effective without increasing toxicity. By increasing the dose of radiation while administering the protective growth factor palifermin (Kepivance), the investigators hope to decrease the risk of relapse without increasing transplant related mortality.

Three prospective randomized trials have studied different radiation schemes as a part of the TBI and cytoxan preparative regimen prior to allogeneic transplantation for patients with AML or CML. As a group these trials showed that higher doses of TBI in these older studies decreased the risk of relapse at the expense of VOD, GVHD, and CMV. Three retrospective studies have also postulated that higher dose radiation led to less risk of relapse.

Detailed Description

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

This is a non-randomized, open-label phase I trial in participants with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The preparative regimen will be as follows:

Day -10 (prior to transplant) Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores Day -9 Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores Day -8 Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores Day -7 Total Body Irradiation twice a day Day -6 Total Body Irradiation twice a day Day -5 Total Body Irradiation twice a day Day -4 Total Body Irradiation twice a day Day -3 Cytoxan chemotherapy infusion Day -2 Cytoxan chemotherapy infusion Day -1 Day of rest Day 0 Stem cell infusion (bone marrow transplant), Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores and G-CSF given daily until stem cells take hold (engraftment) occurs.

Day +1 Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores Day +2 Palifermin treatment to prevent mouth sores

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

Dose-Escalated Total Body Irradiation (TBI) of 4 levels. Palifermin (Kepivance) is being supplied by the sponsor and is FDA approved to decrease the incidence and duration of severe oral mucositis in participants with hematologic malignancies who receive high doses of chemotherapy and radiation therapy followed by stem cell rescue.

Study Groups

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

Dose Level 1

The participants will receive Palifermin on Day -10, -9 and -8. Total Body Irradiation 1.64 Gy per Fraction for a total of 8 Fractions. The total amount would be 13.12 Gy. The participants will receive total body irradiation twice a day for four days (Day -7, -6, -5, and Day -4). Over the following two days, the participants will receive cyclophosphamide (Day -3 and -2). The participants will receive stem cell infusion on Day 0 and G-CSF given daily until engraftment occurs. Participants will receive Palifermin on Day 0, +1 and +2.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Total body irradiation

Intervention Type RADIATION

When radiation is given in a way to cover the whole body, it is called total body irradiation.

Dose Level 2

The participants will receive Palifermin on Day -10, -9 and -8. Total Body Irradiation 1.76 Gy per Fraction for a total of 8 Fractions. The total amount would be 14.08 Gy. The participants will receive total body irradiation twice a day for four days (Day -7, -6, -5, and Day -4). Over the following two days, the participants will receive cyclophosphamide (Day -3 and -2). The participants will receive stem cell infusion on Day 0 and G-CSF given daily until engraftment occurs. Participants will receive Palifermin on Day 0, +1 and +2.

The participants will receive total body irradiation twice a day for four days (Day -7, -6, -5, and Day -4). Over the following two days, the participants will receive cyclophosphamide (Day -3 and -2). The participants will receive stem cell infusion on Day 0 and G-CSF given daily until engraftment occurs. Participants will receive Palifermin on Day 0, +1 and +2.

The participants will receive total body irradiation twice a day for four days (Day -7, -6, -5, and Day -4). Over the following two days, the participants will receive cyclophosphamide (Day -3 and -2). The participants will receive stem cell infusion on Day 0 and G-CSF given daily until engraftment occurs. Participants will receive Palifermin on Day 0, +1 and +2.
