V.2. PBSC donors

V.2.1. Inclusion criteria

  • Related to the recipient (sibling, parent or child) or unrelated;
  • Male or female;
  • Weight > 15 Kg (because of leukapheresis);
  • Fulfills generally accepted criteria for allogeneic PBSC donation;
  • Informed consent given by donor or his/her guardian if of minor age, as per donor center standard procedures.

V.2.2. Exclusion criteria

  • Any condition not fulfilling inclusion criteria;
  • HIV positive;
  • Unable to undergo leukapheresis because of poor vein access or other reasons.

V.2.3. HLA matching

Related or unrelated donors who have 1-2 HLA mismatches, as either :

  • One antigenic mismatch at HLA-A or -B or -C or -DRB1 or -DQB1
  • One allelic mismatch at HLA-A or -B or -C or -DRB1 or -DQB1
  • Two allelic mismatches at HLA-A or -B or -C or -DRB1 or -DQB1
  • One antigenic mismatch + 1 allelic mismatch at HLA-A or -B or -C or -DRB1 or -DQB1.
  • One antigenic mismatch at -DQB1 and one other antigenic mismatch at HLA-A or -B or -C or -DRB1

V.3. Cord blood unit

Banked cord blood units will be used if they fulfill the following criteria:

  • No more than 2/6 HLA mismatches (antigenic mismatch at HLA-A or HLA-B or allelic mismatch at HLA-DRB1)
  • > 2.5 x 107 TNC/kg
  • Standard validation by FACT/Netcord criteria.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Mesenchymal stem cell infusion in people with Hematological Malignancies, run by University of Liege at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 2 Sep 2011. 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 Belgium. 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 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?

Day-100 incidence of non-relapse mortality (time frame: 100 days). 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 NCT00504803, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Sep 2011.
