Conditions

Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma

Brief summary

It is a single arm, multicenter, phase 2 study to explore the efficacy and safety study of R2-MTX chemotherapy(Lenalidomide, Rituximab and Methotrexate)as first-line regimens in the treatment of newly diagnosed primary central nervous system lymphoma. Objective response rate is the primary endpoint.

Detailed description

This is a single arm, multicenter, phase 2 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab, methotrexate and lenalidomide as first-line regimens in the treatment of newly primary central nervous system lymphoma. A total of 40 patients plan to participate in this study to receive a total 6 cycles of induction chemotherapy followed by 4 cycles of maintenance chemotherapy. Follow-ups should be taken up to the first 3 years. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR) and secondary endpoint includes Progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and adverse events.

Interventions

DRUGRituximab

375mg/m2 intravenous infusion d1, every 3 weeks for 1 cycle, 6 cycles will be prescribed for induction therapy. 375mg/m2 intravenous infusion d1, every 8 weeks for 1 cycle, 4 cycles will be prescribed for maintenance therapy.

DRUGLenalidomide

25mg orally d1-10 every 3 weeks for 1 cycle, 6 cycles will be prescribed for induction therapy. 25mg orally d1-14,d29-42 every 8 weeks for 1 cycle, 4 cycles will be prescribed for maintenance therapy.

DRUGMethotrexate

3.5g/m2 intravenous infusion for 4 hours in d1, every 21 days for 1 cycle, 6 cycles will be prescribed.

Measurable disease was defined as at least ≥1.0cm in short-diameter by MRI. 7. Life expectancy of ≥ 3 months (in the opinion of the investigator). 8. Participants must be able to understand and be willing to sign a written informed consent document. 9. Women of reproductive potential must agree to use highly effective methods of birth control during the period of therapy and for 6 months after the last dose of the study drug. Men who are sexually active must agree to use highly effective contraception during the period of therapy and for 6 months after the last dose. 10. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative plasma pregnancy test upon study entry. 11. Adequate renal function: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) or estimated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 50 mL/min;Serum creatinine ≤ 2 times the upper limit of normal. 12. Adequate liver functions: Transaminase (AST/ALT) \< 3 X upper normal value & Bilirubin \< 2 X upper normal value. 13. Adequate hematological function: hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/μL and platelet count ≥ 75,000/μL.

Exclusion criteria

1. Patient with systemic, non-CNS lymphoma metastatic to the CNS. 2. Patient is concurrently using other approved or investigational antineoplastic agents. 3.

Patient is known to have an uncontrolled active systemic infection. 8. Patient has a life-threatening illness, medical condition, or organ system dysfunction that, in the opinion of the investigator, could compromise the subject's safety or put the study outcomes at undue risk. 9.
