About this study

Official title: AML2003 - Randomized Comparison Between Standard-Therapy and Intensified Therapy for Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients <= 60 Years. A Prospective, Randomized, Multi-center Therapy-Optimizing-Study.

AML2003 is a prospective randomized trial, to investigate the value of early allogeneic stem cell transplantation in aplasia after induction therapy for high risk patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Read the detailed description

AML2003 is a prospective randomized trial, to investigate the value of early allogeneic stem cell transplantation in aplasia after induction therapy for high risk patients with acute myeloid leukemia. A rapid analysis of risk-factors (cytogenetics, FLT3 status, clearance of blasts after first induction) and the donor situation is of utmost importance. For this "fast search" diagnostic, which is accomplished in all enclosed patients, significant resources are provided, to take the load off the participating centers. Furthermore, the relevance of autologous transplantation and the benefit of additional substances within the postremission therapy such as m-AMSA or mitoxantrone will be investigated. There is an up-front randomisation in four therapy arms with two cross-classifying factors of two stages (intensified vs. standard therapy and Ara C vs. Ara C+ mitoxantrone + m-AMSA). Thus, the intergroup treatment schedule of the German Competence Network is integrated into the AML2003 study as a central element and 25% of the patients are treated accordingly. In the intensified therapy arms a risk-adapted and priority-based therapy is implemented, including early allogeneic and consolidating autologous stem cell transplantation, respectively. In addition to the clinical questions , a detailed concomitant research program was initiated for the AML2003 study, to get a better view of the heterogeneity of AML and to open new ways for "custom-made" therapies.

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 4 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 24 Dec 2009. 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 Germany. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

overall survival. 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00180102, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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 24 Dec 2009.
