Trial summary

Based on success in other diseases, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC) has developed a transplant procedure for Fanconi anemia (FA), which does not completely destroy the patient's remaining bone marrow. It should also be less harmful (toxic). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Low-Dose Total Body Irradiation and Fludarabine Followed By Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplantation for Patients With Fanconi Anemia - A Multicenter Trial

Based on success in other diseases, the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC) has developed a transplant procedure for Fanconi anemia (FA), which does not completely destroy the patient's remaining bone marrow. It should also be less harmful (toxic). Researchers wish to test whether this approach can overcome the graft failure often seen when bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells from an unrelated donor are used. Researchers also will look at whether the procedure is less toxic than a conventional bone marrow transplant (BMT).

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine whether donor chimerism can be achieved in patients with Fanconi anemia receiving marrow or peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) grafts from unrelated donors following low dose total body irradiation (TBI), fludarabine (fludarabine phosphate), mycophenolate mofetil, and cyclosporine.

II. To determine the lowest dose of TBI necessary to achieve donor chimerism in at least 80% of patients.

III. To determine the incidence of severe regimen-related toxicity.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the survival of Fanconi anemia patients transplanted with unrelated donor marrow or PBSC grafts after conditioning with a non-myeloablative regimen.

II. To determine the incidence and severity of graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) incurred with unrelated bone marrow or PBSC grafts transplant patients with Fanconi anemia.

III. To determine if mixed chimerism results in amelioration of symptoms associated with bone marrow failure in patients with Fanconi anemia.

OUTLINE:

NON-MYELOABLATIVE CONDITIONING REGIMEN: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days -4 to -2, cyclosporine IV every 8-12 hours on days -3 to 0, and undergo low-dose TBI on day 0.

TRANSPLANTATION: Patients undergo allogeneic bone marrow or PBSC transplantation on day 0.

IMMUNOSUPPRESSION: Patients receive cyclosporine orally (PO) or IV every 8-12 hours on days 1-100 with taper to day 177, and mycophenolate mofetil PO or IV every 8 hours on days 0-40 with taper to day 96.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 6 months and annually thereafter.

What is being measured

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

  1. Engraftment, defined as donor chimerism (mixed or complete)

    Mixed chimerism is defined as presence of 5-95%, complete chimerism as > 95% donor derived cells in the peripheral blood. Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Day 28

  2. Engraftment, defined as donor chimerism (mixed or complete)

    Mixed chimerism is defined as presence of 5-95%, complete chimerism as > 95% donor derived cells in the peripheral blood. Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Day 56

  3. Engraftment, defined as donor chimerism (mixed or complete)

    Mixed chimerism is defined as presence of 5-95%, complete chimerism as > 95% donor derived cells in the peripheral blood. Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Day 84

  4. Engraftment, defined as donor chimerism (mixed or complete)

    Mixed chimerism is defined as presence of 5-95%, complete chimerism as > 95% donor derived cells in the peripheral blood. Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Day 180

  5. Regimen toxicity assessed using the Bearman scale

    Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Up to day 100

  6. Acute GvHD defined using the Seattle criteria

    For the evaluation of GvHD, time of onset, severity, and treatment will be recorded. Patient data will be summarized using standard statistical methods.

    Measured: Day 84

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing fludarabine phosphate, cyclosporine and total-body irradiation in people with Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Remission and Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia With 11q23 (MLL) Abnormalities, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 5 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 10 inclusion and 8 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 20 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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?

Engraftment, defined as donor chimerism (mixed or complete) (time frame: Day 28). The study lists 6 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 20 Feb 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
