NCT01805037 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Brentuximab Vedotin + Rituximab as Frontline Therapy for Pts w/ CD30+ and/or EBV+ Lymphomas
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.

Linked outcomes
To identify the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D)/maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of brentuximab vedotin in combination with rituximab. The dose limiting toxicity monitoring period for brentuximab vedotin and rituximab is first 21 days (during induction).The RP2D/MTD will be defined as the highest dose of brentuximab vedotin that causes dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in \<2 of 6 patients. The Phase I portion of the study follows a 3+3 design. Brentuximab has two dose levels: Level 1 (starting dose) 1.2 mg/kg IV, and Level -1 (de-escalation dose): 0.8 mg/kg IV. Toxicity will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4.03.
Dose limiting toxicities (DLT) will be monitored for Phase 1 patients for the first 21 days of Induction (the DLT monitoring period) to evaluate safety. In general, a non-hematologic DLT is defined as any Grade ≥ 3 toxicity, and a hematologic DLT is defined as any Grade ≥ 4 toxicity, both by CTCAE v4.03 criteria.
Overall response will be defined as the detection of Partial Response (PR) or Complete Response (CR) by CT or PET/CT, and/or resolution of marrow-only involvement. Response will be assessed according to the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma (Cheson, et al). CR is defined as a complete disappearance of all detectable clinical evidence of disease and disease-related symptoms, if present before therapy. A post-treatment residual mass of any size is permitted as long as it is PET negative. If a pretreatment PET scan was negative, all lymph nodes and nodal masses must have regressed on CT to normal size. A PR is defined as At least a 50% decrease in sum of the product of the diameters of up to six of the largest dominant nodes or nodal masses. No increase should be observed in the size of other nodes, liver, or spleen.
Toxicity, both frequency and severity, will continue to be measured by monitoring the occurrence of adverse events. Adverse events will be defined as those included in CTCAE v 4.03. AEs that were determined to be at least possibly related to study drug and graded 3, 4, 5 are included here. Grade 1 (mild): the event causes discomfort without disruption of normal daily activities. Grade 2 (moderate): the event causes discomfort that affects normal daily activities. Grade 3 (severe): the event makes the patient unable to perform normal daily activities or significantly affects his/her clinical status. Grade 4 (Life-threatening): the patient was at risk of death at the time of the event. Grade 5 (fatal): the event caused death.
Study treatment efficacy will be evaluated using PET or CT scan images to determine Progression Free Survival (PFS). PFS is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of progression. Response criteria will be those specified by Cheson, et al as the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma. Progressive Disease (PD) is defined as the appearance of any new lesion more than 1.5 cm in any axis during or at the end of therapy, even if other lesions are decreasing in size, or at least a 50% increase from nadir in the diameter of any previously involved nodes, or in a single involved node, or the size of other lesions. All patients who have had at least one dose of study treatment will be evaluable for PFS with censoring of patients who are lost to follow-up. PFS will be reported as percentage of participants without progression.
Overall survival (OS) will be measured from treatment initiation until death from any cause for up to 1 year post-treatment discontinuation. Overall survival is defined as the duration of time from start of treatment to time of death. All patients who have had at least one dose of study treatment will be evaluable for OS. OS will be reported as percentage of participants alive at 2 years post treatment discontinuation, with censoring of patients who are lost to follow-up.
