Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and the safety profile and toxicity of a combination of Velcade™ (bortezomib) with a standard chemotherapy regimen (ACVBP [doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vindesine, bleomycin, and prednisone]) in the treatment of previously untreated patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).

Full description

This is a multicentric, open-label, non-randomized, non-competitive clinical study, evaluating the efficacy and safety of V-ACVBP chemotherapy in previously untreated patients aged from 18 to 65 years with peripheral T-lymphoma.

It is anticipated that 60 subjects will be enrolled over two years (from June 2005 to May 2007).

The duration of the treatment period is approximately 28 weeks and patients are followed until death.

The total duration of the study is expected to be 5 years (from June 2005 to May 2010).

Inclusion criteria

Previously untreated non-cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphoma, including human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) related T-cell lymphoma, and natural killer (NK)-cell lymphoma.
Ages 18 to 65 years.

Poor renal function (creatinin > 150 µmol/l within 14 days before enrollment), poor liver function (total bilirubin > 30 µmol/l, transaminases > 2.5 upper normal limit [UNL] within 14 days before enrollment), unless these abnormalities are related to the lymphoma.
Poor bone marrow reserve as defined by neutrophils < 1.5 G/l or platelets < 100 G/l within 14 days before enrollment, unless these abnormalities are related to the lymphoma.
