Study summary

This is a prospective, dose-escalation clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GVM±R in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL).

Read the detailed description

This is a single-arm, single-center, dose-escalation clinical study to explore the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of liposomal mitoxantrone hydrochloride when combined with gemcitabine, vinorelbine and/or rituximab (GVM ± R) in patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Liposomal mitoxantrone hydrochloride will be given on day 1 at four different doses (16 mg/m2, 18 mg/m2, 20 mg/m2,22 mg/m2) and be combined with gemcitabine, vinorelbine and/or rituximab (rituximab only in CD20+ lymphoma). The dose limited toxicity (DLT) will be evaluated after the first cycle of therapy. A maximum of 6 cycles of therapy are planned.

  2. Hypersensitivity to any study drug or its components;
  3. Uncontrolled systemic diseases (such as active infection, uncontrolled hypertension, diabetes, etc.)
  4. Heart function and disease meet one of the following conditions:

    1. Long QTc syndrome or QTc interval > 480 ms;

    3. Serious and uncontrolled arrhythmias requiring drug treatment;
    4. New York Heart Association grade ≥ III;
    5. Cardiac ejection fraction (LVEF)# 50%;
    6. A history of myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, severe unstable ventricular arrhythmia or any other arrhythmia requiring treatment, a history of clinically serious pericardial disease, or ECG evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities within 6 months before recruitment.
