Results of a Phase II Study of Pixantrone in Combination with Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients with Relapsed Aggressive Non-…

2006

Abstract Background: Pixantrone is a novel aza-anthracenedione with less cardiotoxicity and superior activity compared to doxorubicin and mitoxantrone in murine leukemia and lymphoma tumor models. Pixantrone as single agent therapy led to major responses in patients (pts) with multiply relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCL). In a phase I dose-ranging study of pixantrone (80 to 180 mg/m2) replacing doxorubicin (CPOP) in a CHOP-like regimen, the optimal dose (RD) from that study was found to be 150 mg/m2. Methods: In this international, multi-center, phase II study the primary objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of the CPOP…

Preliminary Phase II Study Results of BBR2778 in Combination with Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients with Relapsed Aggressive …

2004

Abstract Background: Pixantrone (BBR 2778) is a novel aza-anthracenedione with superior activity compared to doxorubicin and mitoxantrone in various tumor models including hematological malignancies. Pixantrone single agent therapy led to major responses in patients (pts) with aggressive lymphoma including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCL). The safety of a CHOP-like regimen with pixantrone replacing doxorubicin (CPOP) was assessed in a dose-ranging study indicating a recommended dose of 150 mg/m² for pixantrone. Method: In this phase II study the primary objective was to assess the efficacy of the CPOP regimen (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m² d1, pixantrone 150mg/m² d1, vincristine 1.4mg/m² d…
