chlorambucil and Enlarged Liver

chlorambucil has been researched along with Enlarged Liver in 8 studies

Chlorambucil: A nitrogen mustard alkylating agent used as antineoplastic for chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, and others. Although it is less toxic than most other nitrogen mustards, it has been listed as a known carcinogen in the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (Merck Index, 11th ed)
chlorambucil : A monocarboxylic acid that is butanoic acid substituted at position 4 by a 4-[bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phenyl group. A chemotherapy drug that can be used in combination with the antibody obinutuzumab for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

"A method of clinical staging of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has been proposed which is based on the concept that CLL is a disease of progressive accumulation of nonfunctioning lymphocytes: stage O, bone marrow and blood lymphocytosis only; stage 1, lymphocytosis with enlarged nodes; stage II, lymphocytosis with enlarged spleen or liver or both; stage III, lymphocytosis with anemia; and stage IV:lymphocytosis with thrombocytopenia."1.25Clinical staging of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Trial Outcomes

Number of Participants With Adverse Events

Here is the number of participants with adverse events. For the detailed list of adverse events see the adverse event module. (NCT00001586)
Timeframe: 13 years, 10.5 months

InterventionParticipants (Number)
Intermediate-high Risk B-Cell Pts18

Change in Gene Expression Post Chemo

Changes in lymphocyte gene expression was measured by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) microarray analysis of circulating leukemic cells after completion of study treatment. A change in expression is defined as a >50% increase in circulating leukemic cells or a 30% decrease in circulating leukemic cells. (NCT00001586)
Timeframe: 6 hours post treatment, and 24 hours post treatment

InterventionPercent change in cells (Number)
6 hours post treatment (e.g. ># cells)24 hours post treatment (e.g. > # cells)
Intermediate-high Risk B-Cell Pts3050

Complete Response

Analysis of the Primary Endpoint: The complete responses will be estimated by the number of patients with CR divided by the total number of evaluable patients. (NCT01723839)
Timeframe: 28 day cycle, up to 4 cycles

InterventionPercentage of Participants (Number)
FCR With Lenalidomide45

Overall Response Rate

Analysis of the other Secondary Endpoints: The overall response rate will be estimated by the number of patients with complete and partial responses divided by the total number of evaluable patients. (NCT01723839)
Timeframe: 28 day cycle, up to 6 cycles

InterventionPercentage of Participants (Number)
FCR With Lenalidomide95
