Registered outcomes5

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryEvent-free-survival (EFS)5 yearsPercentage of patients without events (failure of treatment or Death from any cause) after 5 years from trial registration
SecondaryComplete and Partial Remission Rate - Percentage of Patients With Complete and Partial Response at the End of TreatmentEnd of treatment (after 24 weeks of therapy)
Response criteria were defined according to the NCI standardized response criteria for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Complete response. Disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease, disappearance of all disease-related symptoms, if present before therapy, and normalization of those biochemical abnormalities definitely assignable to NHL. Regression of all lymph nodes and nodal masses to normal (≤ 1.5 cm in their greatest transverse diameter for nodes \> 1.5 cm before therapy and to ≤ 1 cm for nodes that were 1.1-1.5 cm. Regression by more than 75% in the sum of the products of the greatest diameters). Partial response. Decrease by at least 50% in SPD of the six largest measurable lesions. It is not necessary for all lesions to have regressed to qualify for partial response, but no lesion should have progressed and no new lesion should appear. For primary gastric sites, response was based on GELA histologic grading system.
SecondaryResponse Duration (Time to Relapse or Progression) - Percentage of Patients in Continuous Remission at Five Years From Trial Registration5 years
Response criteria were defined according to the NCI standardized response criteria for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Complete response (CR). Disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiographic evidence of disease, disappearance of all disease-related symptoms, if present before therapy, and normalization of those biochemical abnormalities definitely assignable to NHL. Regression of all lymph nodes and nodal masses to normal (≤ 1.5 cm in their greatest transverse diameter for nodes \> 1.5 cm before therapy and to ≤ 1 cm for nodes that were 1.1-1.5 cm. Regression by more than 75% in the sum of the products of the greatest diameters).
