Nowadays there is no randomized trials for comparison the effectiveness and tolerability of different conditioning regimens.
Bendamustine is a unique chemotherapeutic agent that combines alkylating action of nitrogen mustard and the activity of purine antimetabolite. Bendamustine has shown its effectiveness for the treatment of patients with chronic lymphoproliferative diseases such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia and several indolent lymphomas. The literature also presents evidence of the effectiveness bendamustine in patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma who received multiple lines of prior chemotherapy, including high dose chemotherapy and transplantation of peripheral hematopoietic stem cells. There are also data of using bendamustine as a part of conditioning regimen.
In this context, it was planned a study for evaluation the safety and effectiveness of the BeEAC (bendamustine, etoposide, cytarabine, cyclophosphamide) conditioning regimen prior to autologous transplantation of peripheral hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of relapsed/refractory malignant lymphomas.
3,018 studies on the registry are indexed under Lymphoma; 434 are open to participants now.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
Stem cell (bone marrow) transplants. Allogeneic uses cells from a donor; autologous uses your own cells, collected earlier and given back.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
On an ECG, the QT interval is the time the heart’s lower chambers take to activate electrically and recover in each beat. QTc is that time adjusted for heart rate (QTcF by Fridericia’s formula, QTcB by Bazett’s). Some medicines lengthen it, and a long QTc can raise the risk of a dangerous heart rhythm.
The study may name a correction formula and a limit in milliseconds, often around 450–480.
A recording of the heart’s electrical activity, taken with stickers on the chest, arms and legs. It takes a few minutes and does not hurt.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Malignant Lymphoma Subjects With Indications to Autologous Hematopoietic Stem-cell Transplantation using BeEAC (Bendamustine, Cytarabine, Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide) conditioning regimen
Drug: Bendamustine
BeEAC conditioning regimen: bendamustine 200 mg/м2 D-6 - D-5; cytarabine 400 mg/м2 D-4 - D-1; etoposide 400 mg/м2 D-4 - D-1; cyclophosphamide 140 mg/м2 totally, divided in 4 days (D-4 - D-1)
Also known as: Cytarabine, Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
The primary safety analysis will be based on subjects who experienced toxicities as defined by CTCAE criteria. Safety will be assessed by quantifying the toxicities and grades experienced by subjects who have received BeEAC including serious adverse events (SAEs). Adverse experiences will be graded and recorded throughout the study and during the follow-up period according to NCI CTCAE 4.03. Toxicities will be characterized in terms regarding seriousness, causality, toxicity grading and action taking with regard to trial treatment (Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events).
Time frame: From admission till discharge from the hospital (approximately 30 days)
