General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The objective of this study is to assess efficacy of Temsirolimus in patients with refractory and recidivated primary CNS lymphoma
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Study conduct followed International Conference on Harmonization Guidelines for Good Clinical Practice, including written informed consent and data monitoring. Baseline assessments included physical and neurologic examination, cranial magnetic resonance imaging (spinal on clinical suspicion only), and ophthalmologic and CSF examination. Safety assessments included physical examinations, adverse event monitoring, and laboratory parameter changes before each infusion. Adverse events were graded using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 3.0). Response assessment was performed after 4 weeks and every 8 weeks thereafter. Additionally, response assessment was recommended at each time point when progression was suspected. After discontinuing therapy, patients completed an end-of-treatment visit 30 days after their last temsirolimus dose. In patients with PR or CR, remission status was evaluated every 3 months.

Recruitment
|
|||||||
Recruitment details |
Between September 2009 and November 2014, 37 patients were enrolled at four German centers . | ||||||
Pre-assignment
|
|||||||
Screening details |
The vast majority of patients had intermediate- or high-risk disease according to the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center score. Patients had received a median of one prior therapy comprising HDMTX in all patients and high-dose cytarabine in 11. Two patients were pretreated with WBRT, three patients with HD-ASCT, and four patients with both. | ||||||

Temsirolimus Arm | ||||||
Arm description |
Among the first three patients who were given 25 mg temsirolimus, two had grade 3 toxicity (one patient had diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, and leukopenia with pneumonia; one patient had pneumonia). Thus, an additional three patients were treated with the same dose. In these patients, no grade 3 to 4 toxicity was observed, and there was a PR in one patient. Thus, per protocol, the study was continued with 75 mg temsirolimus once per week. | ||||||

Dosage and administration details |
In the first stage, patients were treated with temsirolimus 25 mg intravenously once per week with clemastine premedication. In case of Common Toxicity Criteria grades 3 to 4 toxicity, three additional patients were to be treated with the same dose. If no Common Toxicity Criteria grades 3 to 4 toxicity were observed, all following patients were treated with 75 mg once per week.

Patients responding rate to treatment [1] | ||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Response assessment was performed after 4 weeks and every 8 weeks thereafter. Additionally, response assessment was recommended at each time point when
progression was suspected. After discontinuing therapy, patients completed an end-of-treatment visit 30 days after their last temsirolimus dose. In patients with PR or CR, remission status was evaluated every 3 months. Survival data were collected every 3 months for up to 2 years from start of study treatment or until study closure.
CR, complete response;
uCR, unconfirmed CR;
PD, progressive disease;
PR, partial remission;
Overall response rate (ORR) of 54% (95% CI, 37% to 71%)
SD; stable disease

Notes [1] - No statistical analyses have been specified for this primary end point. It is expected there is at least one statistical analysis for each primary end point. Justification: This was a phase II a two stage design using single-agent temsirolimus in patients. The second stage of the trial was planned to enroll 25 additional patients. After termination of this study stage, the therapy was considered ineffective if fewer than four patients responded. Since there was only one arm and one stage, comparison between groups was not possible. |

Were there any global substantial amendments to the protocol? Yes | |||
Date |
Amendment |

09 Nov 2011 |
new protocol version 2.1 : adjustment of schedule and dosage, the process organization to the termination criteria |

Interruptions (globally) |
|||
Were there any global interruptions to the trial? No | |||
Limitations and caveats |
|||
Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data. | |||
limitation was the preferential inclusion of elderly patients whose initial treatment is frequently not according to the current standards used in younger patients. Generalization of our results should thus be viewed. | |||
