General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
This single arm study assessed the efficacy and safety of rituximab in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, followed by rituximab maintenance therapy, as first line treatment of participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Investigators ensured that this study was conducted in full compliance with the principles of the last version of the Declaration of Helsinki and with the law and regulations of the country where the research was conducted, whichever provided greater protection to the study participants. The study fully complied with the principles stated in the “Good Clinical Practice Standards” of the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Tripartite Guideline (January 1997) and with all local regulations on clinical trials (Directive 2001/20/EC of the European Union and RD 223/2004).
