Trial summary

RATIONALE: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF, and cyclophosphamide helps stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Autologous Marrow Transplantation for Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia Using Stem Cells Obtained After In Vivo Cyclophosphamide/G-CSF Priming

RATIONALE: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF, and cyclophosphamide helps stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well cyclophosphamide plus filgrastim followed by stem cell transplant works in treating patients with chronic phase or accelerated phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Assess the clinical outcomes, survival, and morbidity of patients with chronic or accelerated phase chronic myelogenous leukemia when treated with cyclophosphamide and filgrastim (G-CSF) followed by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.
  • Determine whether priming with cyclophosphamide and filgrastim (G-CSF) increases the fraction of benign Philadelphia chromosome negative hematopoietic progenitors in peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) and reduces the incidence of persistent or recurrent leukemia after autologous transplantation with mobilized PBSC in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive priming therapy consisting of cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on day 1 and filgrastim (G-CSF) daily subcutaneously (SQ) starting on day 5 and continuing until completion of leukapheresis. Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) are collected between days 14-21.

Patients then receive preparative therapy for transplant consisting of cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days -7 and -6 and total body irradiation twice a day on days -4 through -1. Patients receive the PBSC transplantation on day 0. Patients also receive G-CSF IV starting on day 0 and continuing until blood counts recover. Patients then receive interferon alfa SQ daily in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.

Patients are followed at 3 weeks; then at 3, 6, 9, 12, and 18 months; and then annually for 5 years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Time to hemopoietic recovery after transplantation

  2. Detection of the Philadelphia chromosome or the BCR/ABL gene abnormality in post-transplantation marrow samples

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Time to initial hospital discharge

  2. Peritransplantation toxicity

  3. Quality of life at various time points

  4. Cause of death

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing cyclophosphamide, filgrastim and recombinant interferon alfa in people with Leukemia, run by Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota 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?

The sponsor lists 22 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2017. 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 phase mean?

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 was stopped early (reason given: Study terminated as principal investigator \[PI\] left the university.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Time to hemopoietic recovery after transplantation. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 29 Nov 2017.
