| Phase II | Treatment | Closed | 18 to 59 | SWOG-S0349 S0349, NCT00080847 |
Objectives - Compare the 1-year progression-free survival probability rate in patients with low- or low-intermediate-risk advanced diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone with or without oblimersen.
- Compare the response (complete, unconfirmed complete, and partial) in patients treated with these regimens.
- Compare the toxicity of these regimens in these patients.
- Compare the 1-year progression-free survival and response rate in a subset of patients overexpressing bcl-2 protein treated with these regimens.

Expected Enrollment A total of 160 patients (80 per treatment arm) (arm I closed to accrual as of 9/21/04) will be accrued for this study within 2 years. Outcomes Primary Outcome(s)Progression-free survival at 1 year
Secondary Outcome(s)Overall survival Response
Outline This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (0 vs 1). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. (Arm I closed to accrual as of 9/21/04.) - Arm I (closed to accrual as of 9/21/04): Patients receive rituximab IV over 6 hours, cyclophosphamide IV over 15-45 minutes, doxorubicin IV over 5-20 minutes, and vincristine IV over 5-15 minutes on day 1 and oral prednisone on days 1-5.
- Arm II: Patients receive oblimersen IV continuously on days 1-7; rituximab IV over 6 hours, cyclophosphamide IV over 15-45 minutes, doxorubicin IV over 5-20 minutes, and vincristine IV over 5-15 minutes on day 5; and oral prednisone on days 5-10.
In both arms, treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year, every 6 months for 1 year, and then annually for up to 5 years.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
