About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Study of CD45 Antibodies and Alemtuzumab Conditioning Regimen for Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation of Patients With Hematological Diseases

Participants in this study have a hematologic malignancy (a disorder in the bone marrow that affects the body's ability to create blood) that might benefit from receiving an allogeneic stem cell transplant (meaning the cells come from a donor) from a family member or nearly identical matched donor. The donor may either be a matched sibling, a mismatched family member, or an unrelated person.

Usually these patients are given high doses of chemotherapy before receiving a stem cell transplant to keep their immune system from rejecting the donor stem cells and to kill any diseased cells that remain in the body. However, this group of patients have a high risk of developing possibly life-threatening treatment-related side effects such as infections, damage to vital organs such as lungs, liver, kidney and heart, as well as graft versus host disease (GVHD).

Instead of the high dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy usually given before a transplant, this research study uses a new pre-transplant combination of three drugs, Fludarabine, Anti-CD45 and CAMPATH-1H with low dose radiotherapy. Fludarabine is a chemotherapy drug while Anti-CD45 and CAMPATH-1H are antibodies against certain types of blood cells, including those which are causing this disease. CAMPATH-1H is particularly important because it stays active in the body for a long time after it is given, which means it may work longer to prevent GVHD symptoms. Anti-CD45 may help in eradicating residual malignant cells. All these agents also help in preventing rejection of donor stem cells. This study is designed to give a less intense chemotherapy and radiotherapy, so that the life-threatening toxicities of conventional high dose chemotherapy and radiotherapy regimen can be reduced, while maintaining the ability to cure cancer.

Read the detailed description

CAMPATH-1H will be given as a daily IV infusion for three days. Fludarabine will be given as a daily IV infusion for four days. Anti-CD45 will be given as a daily IV infusion for 4 days. Patients will then receive radiotherapy (also known as Total Body Irradiation or TBI) for one day. A summary of the treatment follows:

  • Day - 8: CAMPATH-1H and Fludarabine
  • Day - 7: CAMPATH-1H and Fludarabine
  • Day - 6: CAMPATH-1H and Fludarabine
  • Day - 5: Anti-CD45 and Fludarabine
  • Day - 4: Anti-CD45
  • Day - 3: Anti-CD45
  • Day - 2: Anti-CD45
  • Day - 1: TBI
  • Day 0: Stem Cell Infusion (transplant)

To help prevent the body from developing GVHD, patients will also receive the drug FK506, starting two days before the transplant and continuing for at least one month.

Both the CAMPATH-1H and the Anti-CD45 can cause allergic reactions so patients will be given drugs to help prevent those reactions before receiving daily doses.

To see how CAMPATH-1H works in patients with hematologic malignancies, some patients will be asked to participate in pharmacokinetic studies. For this, approximately 13 blood samples will be taken from the central line scheduled before each infusion on Day -8 to Day -6, daily thereafter until Day 0, and then approximately once per week on days 7, 14, 21 and 28 post transplant. No more than 5 teaspoonfuls total will be drawn.

To see how Anti-CD45 works in patients with hematologic malignancies some patients will be asked to participate in pharmacokinetic studies. Approximately 22 blood samples will be taken from the central line scheduled before, during and after each infusion and after the end of the last infusion of Anti-CD45. No more than 10 teaspoonfuls total will be drawn over the course of the four anti-CD45 infusions.

  • CAMPATH-1HDrug

    Also called anti-CD52, alemtuzumab

    Day -8 through Day -6 Dosed per Institutional SOP

  • FK506Drug

    Also called tacrolimus

    Day -2 through Day 30 dose adjusted to maintain level between 5-15 ng/ml.

  • FludarabineDrug

    Day-8 through Day-5 30 mg/m2

  • Total Body IrradiationRadiation

    Day-1 single dose 450 cGy

  • Stem cell infusionProcedure or surgery

    Patients will receive peripheral blood stem cells from a HLA matched or one antigen mismatched related or unrelated donor (target CD34+ cell count >2 x 106/kg). When peripheral stem cells are unavailable or insufficient, bone marrow (target mononuclear cell count >2 x 108/kg) will be substituted.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess safety and feasibility of monoclonal abs directed to CD45 and CD52 antigens, Fludarabine and low dose TBI, as a non-myeloablative preparatory regimen for allo HSCT. This will be determined by 100d Non-relapse mortality and 100d Graft rejection

    Measured: 100 days post transplant

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To obtain a preliminary estimate of the efficacy of this therapy as defined by: Complete remission at day 100 and One-year disease free survival.

    Measured: 100 days and 1 year post transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ANTI-CD45, CAMPATH-1H and FK506 in people with Hematologic Malignancy, run by Baylor College of Medicine at 2 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?

The sponsor lists 24 inclusion and 7 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jun 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 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?

Assess safety and feasibility of monoclonal abs directed to CD45 and CD52 antigens, Fludarabine and low dose TBI, as a non-myeloablative preparatory regimen for allo HSCT. This will be determined by 100d Non-relapse mortality and 100d Graft rejection (time frame: 100 days post transplant). 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 Jun 2012.
