Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Subcutaneous Serum Rituximab Trough Concentration (Ctrough SC) and Intravenous Serum Rituximab Trough Concentration (Ctrough IV)
At Cycle 7 (one cycle=21 days), 21 days after study treatment administration, up to 21 weeks

For this pharmacokinetics (PK) primary outcome measure the serum rituximab Ctrough for SC and IV administrations were measured at Cycle 7, 21 days after study treatment administration for Cycle 7 (pre-dose of Cycle 8). Geometric mean ratio and 90% confidence interval were estimated based on an ANCOVA model adjusted for tumor load at baseline and are reported in the statistical analysis.

Secondary Endpoints

Observed SC and IV Rituximab Area Under the Curve (AUCsc and AUCiv)
During Cycle 7 (one cycle=21 days): pre-dose, within 15 minutes of end of infusion, 24 hours post-dose, Days 3, 7, 15, 21, up to 21 weeks
Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmax) of Rituximab
At Cycles 2 and 7 (one cycle=21 days): pre-dose, within 15 minutes of end of infusion, 24 hours post-dose, Days 3, 7, 15, 21, up to 21 weeks
Time to Cmax (Tmax) of Rituximab
At Cycles 2 and 7 (one cycle=21 days): pre-dose, within 15 minutes of end of infusion, 24 hours post-dose, Days 3, 7, 15, 21, up to 21 weeks

What phase is Paracetamol in?

Paracetamol is in Phase 2 clinical development for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by regulatory authorities for this indication. One Phase 2 trial has been completed.

What clinical trials is Paracetamol in?

Paracetamol has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial, identified as NCT04660799. This trial evaluated the drug in combination with CHOP chemotherapy in 50 previously untreated participants with CD20 positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in China.

Is Paracetamol the same as Rituximab?

No, Paracetamol is not the same as Rituximab. In the clinical trial NCT04660799, Paracetamol was studied in combination with rituximab and CHOP chemotherapy. Paracetamol is a separate investigational drug being developed by Roche for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
