About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Trial of Decitabine and Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Stem Cells Transplantation for Treatment of Relapse Post Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation

RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be an effective treatment for leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myelogenous leukemia that has relapsed following bone marrow transplantation.

PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of decitabine and peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or chronic myelogenous leukemia that has relapsed after bone marrow transplantation.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of decitabine in patients with relapse post allogenic bone marrow transplant. II. Determine the toxicity of decitabine combined with filgrastim (G-CSF) primed allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells in patients who relapsed within 1 year after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. III. Determine the effectiveness in reinducing remission in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive decitabine IV for 6 hours every 12 hr for 5 days. Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) are administered 5 days after last dose of decitabine. Donors receive filgrastim subcutaneously (SQ) daily every 12 hours starting 2-4 days prior to first PBSC collection. If insufficient number of cells are collected, bone marrow can be harvested for supplementation. Donor cells should be collected prior to decitabine infusion. Patients receive filgrastim SQ administered daily starting 1 day after PBSC infusion until blood counts recover. For GVHD prophylaxis, patients receive cyclosporine IV daily on day -2, then orally once dose is tolerable. Dose of decitabine is escalated in cohorts of 3-6 patients. If dose limiting toxicity occurs in 2 of 6 patients at a given dose level, then that dose is declared the maximum tolerated dose. Patients are followed weekly. If none of the first 5 patients survive in remission for more than 100 days, the study will be terminated.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: At least 15 patients will be accrued for this study over 2 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Filgrastim, Cyclosporine and Decitabine in people with Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) Decitabine (time frame: Weekly for 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2012.
