Study Summary

This trial is studying the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given with R-ICE to see how well it works in treating patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that has returned and is now refractory to treatment.

Who is the study for?
Adults with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma can join this trial. They must have measurable disease, be willing to take daily aspirin for blood clot prevention (or an alternative if allergic), and women of childbearing age need negative pregnancy tests and agree to use contraception. Participants should not have had more than one prior anti-lymphoma therapy and must be able to follow the study's requirements.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the combination of lenalidomide with R-ICE chemotherapy (rituximab, ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide) in patients whose lymphoma has returned or didn't respond to initial treatment. It aims to find the safest dose of lenalidomide that works best when used with R-ICE.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at infusion sites, liver issues reflected by increased enzymes AST/ALT levels, fatigue, risk of infections due to low white blood cell counts (neutropenia), bleeding risks from low platelets count (thrombocytopenia), and potential heart problems.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (R2-ICE)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions
Patients receive lenalidomide PO daily on days 1-14, rituximab IV on day 1, ifosfamide IV over 24 hours on day 2, carboplatin IV over 1-2 hours on day 2, and etoposide IV over 1 hour on days 1-3. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CMR, PMR, or NMR may receive 2 more cycles per physician discretion. After completion of 2 cycles of R2ICE treatment, patients achieving objective status of CMR, PMR or NMR may proceed to SCT during the event monitoring phase.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are there a plethora of locations conducting the investigation in this municipality?

"Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, New hampshire; Hackensack University Medical Center in Hackensack, New jersey; and Mayo Clinic in Florida located in Jacksonville are just a few of the sites where this trial is recruiting patients. Altogether there are 15 locations where enrollment is taking place."

Answered by AI

What diseases can be managed with Lenalidomide?

"Lenalidomide is a popular drug for managing lymphoma, as well as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and Merkel cell carcinoma."

Answered by AI

Are there other studies that have observed the efficacy of Lenalidomide?

"The initial research of Lenalidomide was conducted in 1993 at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, 9000 Rockville Pike. As for now, there have been 3408 clinical trials completed and a further 1993 still recruiting with many located in Lebanon, New hampshire."

Answered by AI

What results are investigators hoping to determine from this clinical experiment?

"This 21-day clinical trial seeks to measure the overall response rate (Phase II) and secondary outcomes, such as incidence of adverse events, percentage of patients proceeding to stem cell transplant and overall survival. Adverse event frequency tables will be examined for patterns or correlations with study treatment while exact binomial 95% confidence intervals will be calculated for true success proportions in terms of transplants. Lastly, Kaplan-Meier estimates will also be used when determining overall survival metrics."

Answered by AI

How many participants can this clinical trial accommodate?

"This trial is not currently recruiting and has been last updated on March 9th 2022. Other studies related to lymphoma, large b-cell diffuse or Lenalidomide are available with a total of 2687 and 1993 active trials respectively."

Answered by AI

Are there any openings available for enrollment in this clinical trial?

"According to clinicaltrials.gov, this trial is not accepting new candidates at the moment. It was first posted on May 20th 2016 and last edited on March 9th 2022; however, there are a plethora of other medical trials actively recruiting patients right now with 4680 opportunities currently open."
