Trial summary

The effect of haematopoietic growth factors on neutrophil recovery after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is well recognized. Recent laboratory studies demonstrated that these cytokines may also modify T-cell and dendritic cell function, but whether the effect is strong enough to alter the risk of… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Randomized Trial of Filgrastim Versus Placebo Following Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation

The effect of haematopoietic growth factors on neutrophil recovery after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is well recognized. Recent laboratory studies demonstrated that these cytokines may also modify T-cell and dendritic cell function, but whether the effect is strong enough to alter the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is unclear.

The aim of this randomised study is to determine the effect of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor [G-CSF] (Neupogen; filgrastim) on the risk of acute GvHD after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing filgrastim in people with Graft vs Host Disease, run by Centre National de Greffe de Moelle Osseuse at 1 site in Tunisia.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2007. 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 Tunisia. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tarek Ben Othman, MD (98901456 ext. 00216, benothman-t@mailcity.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

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 6 Nov 2007.
