About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects (good and bad) of the medication basiliximab in combination with cyclosporine with cyclosporine alone for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease.

This research is being done because there is no completely safe and effective prevention for graft-versus-host disease. It is known that cyclosporine helps with GVHD but we would like to know if the addition of basiliximab will decrease the incidence and/or severity of GVHD after a transplant known as nonmyeloablative ("mini" transplant).

What participants receive

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

  • CyclophosphamideDrug

    60mg/kg/day for two consecutive days (-7,-6).

  • FludarabineDrug

    25mg/m2/day for 5 consecutive days

  • CyclosporineDrug

    3mg/kg/day will be given by continuous intravenous infusion beginning on Day -1.

  • Mycophenolate mofetilDrug

    1000 mg will be administered through day +60 and then discontinued if there is no GVHD.

  • BasiliximabDrug

    20mg , will be given by intravenous infusion (without an in-line filter) over at least 15 minutes beginning 3 days after engraftment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients With Acute Grade II-IV GVHD

    Number of patients with Grade II-IV GVHD according to NMDP/CIBMTR GVHD severity scale. This scale measures the degree of GVHD involvement in the patient's skin (inflammatory skin disease), liver (bilirubin levels) and intestinal tract (amount of diarrhea) as well as the level of decline in a patient's activity and physical abilities.

    Measured: until 30 days after stem cell transplant

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of Patients Engrafting at Day +30 by Short Tandem Repeat (STR) on Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC's).

    Measured: until 30 days after stem cell transplant

  2. Number of Days for Absolute Neutrophil Count to Recover

    Average number of day per patient for absolute neutrophil count to recover(> 500/mm3 for 3 consecutive days).

    Measured: From Day -1 (day before stem cell infusion) to Day+20 (20 days after stem cell infusion)

  3. Time to Resolution of Cytopenias: Platelet Transfusion Independence

    Average number of days per patient for resolution of cytopenias.

    Measured: From Day -1 (day before stem cell infusion) to Day +20 (20 days after stem cell infusion)

  4. Patients Who Experience Serious Transplant Related Toxicities as Evaluated by Bone Marrow Transplant-adjusted NCI Common Toxicity Criteria.

    Number of patients who died due to transplant related toxicities

    Measured: up to 2 years after stem cell transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cyclophosphamide, Fludarabine and Cyclosporine in people with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia and Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by Indiana University 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 6 Oct 2014. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Mar 2012). 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?

Number of Patients With Acute Grade II-IV GVHD (time frame: until 30 days after stem cell 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 6 Oct 2014.
