Japanese multicenter phase II and pharmacokinetic study of rituximab in relapsed or refractory patients with aggressive B-cell lymphoma
Open accessAbstract
Background To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of rituximab monotherapy in Japanese patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell lymphoma.Patients and methods Sixty-eight patients were treated with rituximab at 375 mg/m(2) by eight consecutive weekly infusions. Pretreatment variables affecting overall response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS) and the relationship between pharmacokinetic parameters and efficacy were analyzed.Results The ORRs of 68 enrolled patients and 57 eligible patients were 35% [95% confidence interval (CI) 24% to 48%] and 37% (95% CI 25% to 51%), respectively. Median PFS of 53 evaluable patients was 52 days, whereas time to progression of 21 eligible responders was 245 days. Mild to moderate infusion-related toxicities were observed frequently at the first infusion, but all of them were reversible. Elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and refractoriness to prior chemotherapy were unfavorable factors affecting ORR and PFS (P <0.01). Serum trough levels of rituximab and area under the concentration-time curve for responders were higher than for non-responders (P <0.05).Conclusions Eight consecutive weekly infusions of rituximab have significant anti-lymphoma activity for relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell lymphoma. Several pretreatment variables and serum rituximab levels are useful for predicting its efficacy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
