Combination Chemotherapy, Monoclonal Antibody, and Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

primary · POSTED

A dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as any grade 3 or 4 non-hematological toxicity (other than grade 3 nausea/vomiting) or any hematological toxicity resulting in the discontinuation of temozolomide. Toxicity evaluation for this dose escalation includes all toxicities occurring prior to the start of radiation therapy. If the patient did not receive radiation therapy, then toxicity evaluation included all toxicities occurring through week 15. Any grade 5 toxicity would result in immediate suspension of accrual.

primary · POSTED

Survival time is defined as time from registration to date of death from any cause and is estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients last known to be alive are censored at the date of last contact. (Please note that this outcome measure is considered the primary endpoint for the Phase II component of the study, but that the patients from Phase I that were treated at the same dose level are included, as indicated in the treatment arm descriptions. )

Eligible patients on Temozolomide 100 mg arms who started study treatment

secondary · POSTED

Tumor response was centrally reviewed. Complete response: Disappearance of all enhancing tumor, the patient must be off steroid therapy and neurologically stable or improved; partial response: ≥ 50% decrease in enhancing tumor; progressive disease: ≥ 25% increase in a lesion, progressive or newly emergent meningeal or ocular disease. (Please note that this outcome measure is considered a secondary endpoint for the Phase II component of the study, but that the patients from Phase I that were treated at the same dose level are included, as indicated in the treatment arm descriptions. )

Eligible patients on Temozolomide 100 mg arms who started study treatment and have scans for central review

secondary · POSTED

Progression is defined as greater than 25% increase in enhancing tumor or the appearance of new lesions in the brain, eye, or the appearance of a new positive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology. The patient may be neurologically stable or worse and on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroid. Progression-free survival time is defined as time from registration to the date of progression, death, or last known follow-up (censored). Progression-free survival rates are estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. (Please note that this outcome measure is considered a secondary endpoint for the Phase II component of the study, but that the patients from Phase I that were treated at the same dose level are included, as indicated in the treatment arm descriptions. )
