A Phase 2 interventional study of filgrastim and rituximab in Lymphoma, sponsored by SWOG Cancer Research Network. Completed. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 69 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2012-11-01.
Sponsored by SWOG Cancer Research Network · Phase 2, Interventional, and Treatment
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies such as rituximab can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining rituximab with chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II pilot study to study the effectiveness of combining chemotherapy with rituximab in treating patients who have newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma.
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: This is a pilot, multicenter study.
Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Patients are followed within 30 days, every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years. Patients with disease progression are followed annually for up to 5 years from study entry.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 50 patients will be accrued for this study within 25 months.
5,578 studies on the registry are indexed under Lymphoma; 825 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 56 is above the median of 40 across 4,508 interventional studies indexed under Lymphoma.

Methotrexate/Ara-C (cycles 2,4,6,8): rituximab 375 mg/m\^2 on day 1, methotrexate 1000 mg/m\^2 over days 2-3, Ara-C 12 g/m\^2 over days 3-4, leucovorin 170 mg over days 3-5, and G-CSF 5 ug/kg on days 5-21.

Progression-free Survival
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) rate at 1 year. PFS measured from date of registration to date of first observation of progressive disease or death due to any cause. Progressive disease is a 50% increase in the sum of products of greatest diameters (SPD) of target measurable lesions over the smallest sum observed if a complete response (confirmed, or unconfirmed) was not previously achieved; appearance of a new lesion/site; unequivocal progression of non-measurable disease; or death due to disease without prior documentation of progression.
Time frame: assessed after cycle 4, after completion of treatment, then every 3 months until 1 year after registration
Response
Complete (CR), complete unconfirmed (CRU) and partial responses (PR). CR is complete disappearance of all measurable and non-measurable disease with the exception of nodes; no new lesions; previously enlarged organs must have regressed in size; and if bone marrow positive at baseline, it must be negative. CRU is complete disappearance of all measurable and non-measurable disease; regressed, non-palpable organs; and one or more exceptions not qualifying for CR (see protocol section 10). PR applies to patients with at least one measurable lesion who do not qualify for CR or CRU. PR is a 50% decrease in sum of products of greatest diameters (SPD) for up to six identified dominant lesions identified at baseline; no new lesions; no increase in the size of liver, spleen or other nodes; and splenic and hepatic nodules must have regressed in size by at least 50% in SPD.
Time frame: assessed after cycle 4 and after completion of treatment (168 days)
Overall Survival
Overall Survival rate at 1 year. Time to death is from date of registration to date of death due to any cause.
Time frame: assessed after cycle 4, after completion of treatment, then every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months thereafter until 5 years
