Trial Information

Phase II Study of an Association of L-asparaginase-Methotrexate-Dexamethasone for Relapsing and/or Refractory Nasal and Nasal-type NK-T-cell Lymphoma


Primary Objective:

- Determine the overall and complete response rate

Secondary Objectives:

- To evaluate survival without progression

- To evaluate total survival.

- To evaluate the tolerance and the side effects of the treatment.

- To evaluate the duration and the mode of hospitalization of the patients treated by
this therapeutic association.

- To constitute a bank of biological samples - serum, tumoral, ADN, ARN to allow
prognostic studies implying virus EBV, p53, CD94, C-kit and asparagine synthetase gene
in order to better understand the mechanisms of the cancerogenesis of this variety of
cytotoxic LNH and to identify the predictive factors of response to the asparaginase.

Sampling:

For each patient included in the protocol, the following sampling will be carried out with
the diagnosis:

- Biopsy,

- Medullary biopsy

- Medullary aspiration

- blood: 3 tubes of 7 ml on EDTA and 3 tubs of 7 ml with heparin

Treatment:

All the patients included will receive three cures separated by 3 weeks (J1, J22, J43):

- J1: Methotrexate 3 gr/m2

- J2, J4, J6 and J8: Kidrolase® 6000 u/m2

- J1 with J4: Dexamethasone 40 mg (20 mg if age > 70 years)
