NCT ID:
NCT00992134
Brief Summary:
The objective of the study is to demonstrate the safety, tolerability, and activity of Rituximab-Bendamustine-Cytarabine(R-BAC) regimen in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) aged 65 years or more, as well as in younger patients who are not eligible for intensive regimens including/not including autologous transplantation.
Detailed Description:
Since Bendamustine has recently shown promising safety and efficacy in combination with monoclonal antibodies in the treatment of patients with MCL, the goal of this study is to investigate the possible therapeutic benefit of combining Ara-C with Bendamustine and Rituximab (R-BAC). All three agents exhibit individual and unique mechanisms of action in MCL, and a synergistic or additive effect might be expected when these agents are used in combination, as suggested by the pre-clinical studies.
