Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This compares the effects of nivolumab at a fixed dose of 40 mg with chemo-immunotherapy versus chemo-immunotherapy alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Treatment for PMBCL involves chemotherapy combined with an immunotherapy called rituximab. Chemotherapy drugs work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Giving nivolumab with chemo-immunotherapy may help treat patients with PMBCL.

- description
- Active Comparator: Arm A (DA-EPOCH-R) Patients receive prednisone or prednisolone on days 1-5 and rituximab IV or rituximab and hyaluronidase human SC over 5 minutes on day 1 or 5. Patients also receive etoposide phosphate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and vincristine sulfate IV over 96 hours on days 1-4 and cyclophosphamide IV over 30-60 minutes on day 5. Beginning 24-72 hours after completing cyclophosphamide, patients receive filgrastim or pegylated filgrastim SC daily until ANC is \>= 500/uL after the expected nadir. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 6 cycles (5 if the patient had 1 prior cycle of treatment) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo FDG-PET/CT on study. When СR is achieved according to PET / CT after 4 cycles of chemotherapy, 2 randomization is performed, a total of 4 or 6 chemotherapy courses
