A Study of Galiximab + Rituximab Versus Rituximab + Placebo in Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL)
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Biogen Idec, December 2008
Sponsored by: Biogen Idec
Information provided by: Biogen Idec
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00363636
  Purpose

This is a Phase III, multicenter, global, clinical study of an investigational drug called galiximab in combination with an approved drug called rituximab in subjects with follicular NHL.

The purpose of the study is to compare the clinical benefit of galiximab when given in combination with rituximab as compared with rituximab alone (given with placebo) in subjects with follicular NHL. Safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of galiximab and rituximab will also be evaluated.


Condition Intervention Phase
Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin's
Drug: Galiximab in combination with rituximab
Drug: Rituximab in combination with placebo
Phase III

MedlinePlus related topics: Lymphoma
Drug Information available for: Rituximab Immunoglobulins Globulin, Immune Galiximab
U.S. FDA Resources
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Placebo Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study
Official Title: A Phase III, Randomized, Double-Blind Study of Galiximab in Combination With Rituximab Compared With Rituximab in Combination With Placebo for the Treatment of Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory, Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Further study details as provided by Biogen Idec:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess efficacy as measured by progression free survival (PFS), and determine whether rituximab plus galiximab compared to rituximab plus placebo may extend PFS. [ Time Frame: The duration of this study is approx 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Secondary efficacy measures include: event-free survival, time to progression, duration of response, complete response rate, and overall survival. [ Time Frame: The duration of this study is approx 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Safety measures include: adverse event rates, clinical laboratory results, development of anti-galiximab and human anti-chimeric antibodies. [ Time Frame: The duration of this study is approx 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Pharmacokinetics [ Time Frame: The duration of this study is approx 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Quality of Life using both the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Lymphoma (FACT-lym) and the EQ-5D (EuroQoL) instruments [ Time Frame: The duration of this study is approx 4 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Aged >= 18 years old at the time of informed consent.
  • Histologically confirmed follicular Grade 1-3a NHL.
  • Relapsed or progressive disease after at least 1 prior chemotherapy requiring treatment.
  • Bidimensionally measurable disease with at least 1 lesion >= 2.0 cm in a single dimension.
  • Acceptable hematologic, hepatic, and renal function parameters.
  • Recovered fully from any significant toxicity associated with prior surgery, radiation treatments, chemotherapy, biological therapy, autologous bone marrow or stem cell transplant, or investigational drugs.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Follicular lymphoma Grade 3b.
  • Rituximab refractory or refractory to anti-CD20 radioimmunotherapy (no response to prior rituximab or prior rituximab-containing regimen, or a response with a TTP of less than 6 months).
  • Cancer radiotherapy, biological therapy, or chemotherapy within 3 weeks prior to Study Day 1 (6 weeks if nitrosourea or mitomycin C).
  • Prior lymphoma vaccine therapy within 12 months prior to Study Day 1.
  • Prior antibody therapy for lymphoma (including radioimmunotherapy) within 6 months prior to Study Day 1.
  • Autologous bone marrow or stem cell transplant within 6 months prior to Study Day 1.
  • Prior allogeneic transplant.
  • Transfusion-dependent subjects.
  • Another primary malignancy requiring active treatment (except hormonal therapy).
  • Serious nonmalignant disease (e.g., congestive heart failure, hydronephrosis); active uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infections; or other conditions, which would compromise protocol objectives in the opinion of the Investigator and/or the Sponsor.
  • New York Heart Association Class III or IV cardiac disease or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to Study Day 1.
