Trial Title: Study Combining Zevalin With High-Dose Chemotherapy Prior to Autologous StemCell Transplant in Patients With Relapsed, Refractory, or Transformed Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

NCT ID: NCT00438581

Condition: Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Conditions: Official terms:
Lymphoma
Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin
Antibodies, Monoclonal

Conditions: Keywords:
Zevalin
Autologous one Marrow Transplant
Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

Study type: Interventional

Study phase: Phase 2

Overall status: Unknown status

Study design:

Allocation: Non-Randomized

Intervention model: Single Group Assignment

Primary purpose: Treatment

Masking: None (Open Label)

Intervention:

Intervention type: Drug
Intervention name: Yttrium 90 Ibritumomab Tiuxetan ( Zevalin )

Summary: This aim of this study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of combining a single course of Yttrium 90 Ibritumomab Tiuxetan, a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody ( Zevalin ), with high-dose BEAM chemotherapy and autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation in patients with relapsed, refractory, or transformed Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Detailed description: Relapse rates after chemotherapy for relapsed, refractory or transformed Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL)remain very high. NHL is a radiosensitive tumor. We hypothesize that targeted radioimmunotherapy combined with high-dose chemotherapy may increase response and survival rates in a safe and reliable manner.
