a study of liposome-entrapped mitoxantrone hydrochloride injection in relapsed/refractory peripheral t-cell lymphoma and nk/t-cell lymphoma

Conditions: Relapsed or Refractory Peripheral T-cell and NK/T-cell Lymphoma

Summary: this is a single-arm, open, multi-center, phase ii study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection in relapsed or refractory peripheral t-cell and nk/t-cell lymphoma.

the dosage regimen of liposome-entrapped mitoxantrone is multi-cycle 20mg/m2 intravenous infusion. every 4 weeks is a treatment cycle, with administration on the first day of each cycle. end-of-treatment visit will be made to the subjects within 4 weeks after the end of the last administration. progression-free survival (pfs) follow-up will be conducted to the subjects in stable or improved condition after treatment and the subjects with early termination of treatment due to intolerance in week 8 after the last administration of study drug, and thereafter once every 8 weeks until pd, death, withdrawal of informed consent form (icf), starting another new treatment or end of the entire study (whichever occurs first). meanwhile, overall survival (os) follow-up will also be conducted to the subjects with pd and starting another new treatment once every 8 weeks until death, withdrawal of icf or end of the entire study (whichever occurs first).
