About this study

Official title: Phase II Feasibility Study of T-Cell Depletion in Allogeneic Unrelated Bone Marrow Transplantation (MUD ALLO BMT) Followed by Delayed T-Cell Infusions

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer and abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Removing the T cells from the donor cells before transplant may stop this from happening. Giving an infusion of the donor's T cells (donor lymphocyte infusion) after the transplant may help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect).

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying T-cell depletion in donor stem cell transplant followed by delayed T cell infusions in treating patients with hematologic cancer or other disease.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine if T-cell depletion of a peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) graft followed by delayed add-backs of defined doses of donor lymphocytes decreases the rate of graft-versus-host disease and its complications in matched unrelated donor (MUD) allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation in patients with hematologic cancers or other diseases.
  • Determine whether targeted T-cell dosages in the PBPC graft can be achieved in these patients by positive CD34+ selection using the Baxter Inc. Isolex 300i v. 2.5.
  • Determine the effects of T-cell depletion on the rate of engraftment in these patients.
  • Develop a matched unrelated donor (MUD) allogeneic transplantation regimen that will decrease overall treatment-related mortality in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a non-randomized study.

  • Myeloablative preparative regimen: Patients receive cyclophosphamide IV once daily on days -5 and -4 followed by total body irradiation twice daily on days -3, -2, and -1. Patients also receive tacrolimus on day -1 administered by continuous IV infusion over 24 hours.
  • Peripheral blood progenitor cell graft transplantation: Patients receive T-cell depleted, peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPC) by IV infusion on day 0. Beginning 1 day after completion of the PBPC infusion, patients receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously once daily until blood counts recover.
  • Post transplantation T cell add-backs: Patients receive defined doses of donor T cells by IV infusion on days 45 and 100, in the absence of active graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) requiring steroids*.

NOTE: *A T cell add-back may be given in the presence of GVHD, if the investigator considers the risk from relapse or overwhelming viral infection to outweigh the risk of exacerbating GVHD.

Patients will be followed periodically for relapse and survival.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • peripheral blood lymphocyte therapyProcedure or surgery

    Also called T-cell depletion

    T-cell depletion will be accomplished using CD34 selection with the Baxter Isolex 300i v. 2.5 device. The desirable T-cell dose will be >0.5 x 105 but <1.0 x 105 CD3+ cells per kg. The targeted CD34 cell dose will be >2 x 106 cells/kg.

T-Cell Depletion TransplantExperimentalOur protocol is designed to attempt to improve the current results of matched unrelated donor (MUD) allo bone marrow transplant (BMT) and will be a major step towards the introduction and refinement of graft engineering. Our approach will address in a rational fashion all major technical and clinical aspects of MUD allo BMT. Peripheral blood lymphocyte therapy; cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, peripheral blood stem cell transplantation; total-body irradiation; 'allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation'

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment-related Mortality (TRM)

    The complication rate in matched unrelated donor (MUD) allogeneic bone marrow transplant (allo BMT) is known to be high. Graft failure and severe graft versus host disease (GvHD) are the most significant contributors to treatment related mortality (TRM). This treatment regimen will be considered unacceptable if the number of patients that experience TRM is 55% or greater, and effective if TRM is 33% or less.

    Measured: 180 days after transplant

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. The Rate of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD)

    Measured: D+100 from transplant

  2. Number of Participants With Duration of Absolute Neutropenia

    Measured: D+100 from transplant

  3. Number of Participants Able to Receive T-cell Add Backs

    Patients receive defined doses of donor T cells by IV infusion on days 45 and 100, in absence of active graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) requiring steroids.

    Measured: through D+100

  4. Number of Participants With Relapse-free Survival

    number of patients that were still alive and relapse free

    Measured: after 7 years of follow up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing peripheral blood lymphocyte therapy, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in people with Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders and Leukemia, run by The Cleveland Clinic at 1 site 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 33 inclusion and 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 May 2017. 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 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 May 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Treatment-related Mortality (TRM) (time frame: 180 days after transplant). 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 May 2017.
