A Multicenter Open-label Randomized Study of BCD-020 (Rituximab, CJSC BIOCAD, Russia) Efficacy and Safety in Comparison With MabThera (F. Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Switzerland) in Monotherapy of CD20-positive Indolent Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Abstract
This international multi-center, randomized, controlled, open-label study investigated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, efficacy and safety of BCD-020 (INN: rituximab, CJSC Biocad) versus MabThera® (INN: rituximab, F. Hoffmann La Roche, Ltd.) both administered as a monotherapy of patients with indolent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Patients were randomized to receive 375 mg/m² BCD-020 as intravenous infusion once a week for 4 weeks or MabThera® at the same regimen.
Conditions: Follicular Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma, Splenic Marginal Zone Lymphoma.
Primary outcome: Overall response rate; CD20-positive cells count.
Enrollment: 174 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 174 participants or records.
