Trial of Bendamustine And Rituximab for Patients With Previously Untreated Extranodal Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue (MALT) Lymphoma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of the study is to assess the therapeutic activity and safety of the combination of Bendamustine and Rituximab in MALT lymphomas.
Primary endpoint:
- Event-free-survival (EFS) (failure or death from any cause) for all patients.
Secondary endpoints:
-
Complete and partial remission rates for all patients
-
Response duration (time to relapse or progression) for responder patients
-
Progression-free-survival (PFS) (disease progression or death from lymphoma: for all patients
-
Overall survival for all patients
-
Acute and long-term toxicity
