Key information

About this study

Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a rare non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, around 30% patients would get relapse. Vinorelbine(Navelbine) is a third-line treatment option for Hodgkin's disease(HD) after transplantation failed, while both HD and ALCL express CD30. When ALCL recurred, vinblastine monotherapy was used and the 5-year EFS up to 30%, 5-year OS up to 60%. In China vinblastine is unavailable. Vinorelbine is very similar to vinblastine in molecular formula, and is available in China. From November 2016 to March 2017, two patients with recurrent ALCL were recruited in the Department of Hematology and Oncology, Shanghai Children's Medical Center. They received vinorelbine monotherapy and achieved clinical remission (PET CR) at 8 weeks. One patient with bone marrow recurrence showed negative ALK / NPM by PCR . Based on this, the investigators will expand the sample to further investigate the therapeutic efficiency and safety of vinorelbine in children and adolescents with ALCL.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

Children and adolescents with a clear diagnosis of recurrent / progressive ALCL at Shanghai Children's Medical Center or other centers since September 2017 include:

Diagnosed as ALCL, already received first-line treatment, but get disease progression; After receiving ALCL treatment has got CR then diagnosed relapse, need for pathological diagnosis.

Exclusion criteria

Patients with other systemic diseases, severe infections or critically illness.

Treatment and study plan

Vinorelbine

Drug

During each course, patients will be treated with vinorelbine (25mg/m2/week on weeks 1-3). After 1 course(4 weeks) of vinorelbine, response will be evaluated by simple assessment: clinical symptoms, signs, B ultrasound, chest X-ray, peripheral blood test and bone marrow smear(if needed). After 2 courses, response will be evaluatedy by simple assessment, CT and FDG-PET. The CR/CRu was defined by anatomic tumour shrinkage more than 75% after 2 courses based on CT with negative PET assessment, with negative bone marrow PCR(if needed) and without CNS involvement. Patients who achieved a CR/CRu after two courses either will proceed to stem cell transplantation (SCT) or will receive additional courses of therapy while awaiting SCT. Response was re-evaluated at the end of every 2 courses. Patients with progressive disease at any time during treatment will be removed from protocol therapy.

Primary outcomes

  1. Progression Rate

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    The progression rate will be obtained from the results of simple assessment after one course.

  2. CR/CRu Rate

    Time frame: 8 weeks

    The CR/CRu rate will be obtained from the results of simple assessment, CT and FDG-PET after two courses.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-free Survival

    Time frame: 2 years

  2. Overall Survival

    Time frame: 2 years

    Compared with historical data.

Other outcomes

  1. Safety statistics: adverse reactions during the trial through NCI CTCAE version 4.0.

    Time frame: 2 years

    The investigators will record the adverse reactions during the trial through NCI CTCAE version 4.0.
