Trial summary

RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells are rejected by the body's normal tissues. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Photochemically Treated Donor T-Cell Supplements in HLA Haplotype Mismatched Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

RATIONALE: Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill tumor cells. Sometimes the transplanted cells are rejected by the body's normal tissues. Transplanting donated cells that have been treated with psoralen may prevent this from happening.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and psoralen-treated donor cells in treating patients who are undergoing peripheral stem cell transplantation for hematologic cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of T-cells photochemically treated with psoralen and ultraviolet A given with peripheral stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies or bone marrow failure myelodysplastic syndrome. II. Assess the toxicity of this treatment in these patients. III. Evaluate this regimen in terms of prevention of graft versus host disease and control of malignancy in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation, multicenter study of T-cells photochemically treated with psoralen and ultraviolet A. Patients receive thiotepa IV over 2 hours on day 1, cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days 2 and 3, and whole body radiotherapy on days 5-8. Patients undergo preserved stem cell or bone marrow allogeneic transplant plus psoralen treated T-cell allogeneic transplant on day 9. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of photochemically treated T-cells until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 2 of 3 patients experience dose limiting toxicities. Patients are followed for 100 days.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 37 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Cyclophosphamide, Psoralen and Thiotepa in people with Leukemia and Lymphoma, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 3 sites 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 26 Oct 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 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.

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) of T-cells photochemically treated with psoralen and ultraviolet A (time frame: 100 days). 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 26 Oct 2018.
