Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Overall Response (complete remission (CR), unconfirmed complete response (Rcu) or partial remission (PR)). Measuring Time: at 6 weeks after four doses.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Progression-free survival (PFS). Time in months from inclusion date until it objectively documented progressive disease or death. Measuring time: 1 year of follow-up or progression date or death date. Time to progression (TTP).Time in months from clinical response date until it objectively documented progressive disease or death. Measuring time: 1 year of follow-up or progression date or death date. Pharmacokinetics (Plasma concentration, maximal concentration, plasma half-life of a drug (T ½), Clearance). Measuring time: at 1st and 4th dose. Immune Response (Labeling with mAb, B-cell markers, serum immunoglobulin levels, levels of circulating immune complexes, complement hemolytic activity CH50). Measuring time: before each dose of RitxCIM, at 6 weeks after 4 doses. B cells depletion (Absolute counts of B cells in peripheral blood). Measuring time: before each dose of RitxCIM, at 6 weeks after 4 doses. Incidence of Adverse Events (AE) (type (name of AE), Duration (difference between start date and the end date of the AE), Intensity (Mild, Moderate, Severe, which threatens or incapacitates, Death), Gravity (Serious, Not serious), Attitude regarding treatment (No change, Dose modification, temporary interruption of treatment, final interruption of treatment), Outcome (Recovered, Improved, Persists, Sequelae) causality relationship (Final, Very Likely, Likely, Possible, Not related, Unknown)). Measuring time: in every administration until to complete 1 year.
