Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill cancer cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Non-Myeloablative Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation for Hematologic Malignancies Using Haploidentical Donors: A Phase I Trial of Pre-Transplant Cyclophosphamide

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Bone marrow transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy or radiation therapy used to kill cancer cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of cyclophosphamide plus bone marrow transplantation in treating patients who have hematologic cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the minimum effective dose of pretransplant cyclophosphamide to induce engraftment of haploidentical allogeneic bone marrow without the use of myeloablative conditioning in patients with hematologic malignancies.
  • Determine the incidence and severity of graft versus host disease and nonhematologic toxicities with this treatment regimen in these patients.
  • Correlate the pretreatment phenotypic and functional immunologic characteristics in these patients in relation to risk of graft rejection with this treatment regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of cyclophosphamide.

Patients receive fludarabine IV over 1 hour on days -6 to -2; cyclophosphamide IV over 1 hour on days -6, -5, and 3; total body irradiation on day -1; and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation on day 0. Patients also receive tacrolimus IV or orally twice a day on days 4-50; oral mycophenolate mofetil on days 4-35; and filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously or IV starting on day 4 and continuing until blood counts recover.

Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of cyclophosphamide until the minimum effective dose necessary to induce chimerism without unacceptable toxicity in these patients is determined.

Patients are followed at 2 and 6 months, at one year, and then annually thereafter.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: At least 23 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing filgrastim, cyclophosphamide and fludarabine phosphate in people with Leukemia and Lymphoma, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins 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 10 Mar 2010. 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 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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00006042, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 10 Mar 2010.
