A Randomized Phase II Trial of Brentuximab Vedotin (SGN35 NSC# 749710) or Crizotinib (NSC#749005 Commercially Labeled) in Combination With Chemotherapy for Newly Diagnosed Patients With Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL)

Brief description of study.

This partially randomized phase II trial studies how well brentuximab vedotin or crizotinib and combination chemotherapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II-IV anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

Detailed description of study

The purpose of this study is to determine the tolerability of brentuximab vedotin given in combination with standard chemotherapy (anaplastic large cell lymphoma [ALCL]99) and to determine the tolerability of crizotinib given in combination with chemotherapy (ALCL99); and to estimate the event free survival (EFS) of Arm brentuximab vedotin (BV) and Arm crizotinib (CZ) and contrast these to historical control data.

Participants will not be paid for their participation.

This study investigates how well different treatments work for patients with a type of cancer called anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). ALCL is a cancer that affects the lymph nodes and is characterized by certain markers on the cancer cells, like CD30 and ALK. The study is testing two treatment arms: one uses an investigational medication combined with standard chemotherapy, and the other uses a different investigational medication with chemotherapy. The goal is to see how well these treatments work and how patients tolerate them.

Participants in the study will receive either the investigational medication brentuximab vedotin or crizotinib, each combined with chemotherapy. The study will monitor how patients respond to these treatments and any side effects they experience. Brentuximab vedotin and crizotinib are investigational medications, which means they are not yet approved for general use. The study will compare the results to past data to see if these new combinations improve patient outcomes.

  • Who can participate: This study is for patients newly diagnosed with ALCL, a type of lymphoma, who have stage II, III, or IV disease that is CD30 and ALK positive, with a life expectancy of at least 8 weeks.
  • Study details: Participants will be assigned to one of two treatment arms and will receive either brentuximab vedotin or crizotinib along with chemotherapy. Brentuximab vedotin and crizotinib are investigational medications, meaning they are not yet approved for general use. Participants will not receive any payment for their involvement in the study.
