carmustine and Leukemia, Lymphoid

carmustine has been researched along with Leukemia, Lymphoid in 44 studies

Carmustine: A cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent. It is used in the treatment of brain tumors and various other malignant neoplasms. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p462) This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen according to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carmustine : A member of the class of N-nitrosoureas that is 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a nitroso group.

Leukemia, Lymphoid: Leukemia associated with HYPERPLASIA of the lymphoid tissues and increased numbers of circulating malignant LYMPHOCYTES and lymphoblasts.

A Phase 2a Study of the Addition of Temozolomide to a Standard Conditioning Regimen for Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed and Refractory Central Nervous System (CNS) Lymphoma[NCT01235793]Phase 211 participants (Actual)Interventional2010-10-14Terminated (stopped due to The clinical trial was terminated due to poor enrollment)
[information is prepared from clinicaltrials.gov, extracted Sep-2024]

Trial Outcomes

Safest Dose of Temozolomide for the DRBEAT Regimen

Safety will be assessed using a dose escalation design for temozolomide's use to determine the target dose and also to evaluate any and all acute treatment related toxicities. During the course of patient follow up and therapy, toxicities will be evaluated, particularly as the investigators will be determining the target dose of temozolomide. One of the major criteria for dose limiting toxicity for the study will be any Grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity from a list of commonly expected toxicities associated with autologous transplantation and temozolomide. (NCT01235793)
Timeframe: One Year

One-year Progression-free Survival and Overall Survival

"Efficacy of the DRBEAT Regimen will be assessed by analysis of~one-year progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time interval from maximal response from therapy to tumor regrowth, progression*, or death, (*Progression is defined as meeting the response criteria listed in Table 4: Response Criteria for Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma according to Abrey LE, Batchelor TT, Ferreri AJM et al.)~and~Overall survival, defined as the time interval between the date of transplant and the date of death from any cause."
