Who may be able to join

  • Meets one of the following risk criteria for tumor lysis syndrome (TLS):
  • A patient is at high risk for TLS if he/she presents with:

Show all 17Show fewer
  • High grade myelodysplastic syndrome (refractory anemia with excess blast, refractory anemia with excess blast in transformation, or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia) only if they have > 10% bone marrow blast and are given aggressive treatment similar to AML
  • A patient is at potential risk for TLS if he/she presents with:
  • A diagnosis of an aggressive lymphoma/leukemia based on the REAL classification of lymphoma/leukemia plus 1 or more of the following criteria:

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Single Agent Rasburicase in Treatment/Prevention of Hyperuricemia Associated With Tumor Lysis Syndrome in Adult and Pediatric Patients With Lymphoma/Leukemia/Solid Tumor Malignancies at Their First Relapse or Refractory Disease

This is an open-label, multi-center study with 2 arms. The primary objective is to assess the response to treatment with rasburicase in 2 populations of adult and pediatric patients with lymphoma/leukemia/solid tumor malignancies, those previously treated with a uricolytic agent, and those not previously treated with a uricolytic agent at their first relapse or refractory disease.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, 2 arm, open-label study;

  • Arm A: Patients previously treated with a uricolytic agent;
  • Arm B: Patients not previously treated with a uricolytic agent.

Patients receive rasburicase for 5 days and begin chemotherapy 4-24 hours after the first dose of rasburicase. Patients are followed at 14 and 35 days, at 3 and 6 months and every 6 months thereafter.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Rasburicase (SR29142) in people with Tumors and Hyperuricemia, run by Sanofi at 7 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 17 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 30 Mar 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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 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?

Positive response based on plasma uric acid levels. (time frame: up to 48 hours after last administration.). 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 30 Mar 2009.
