Trial summary

Some patients with multiple myeloma or lymphoma will need treatment with high dose chemotherapy to treat their condition. This potent treatment will kill many of the blood-forming cells in the bone marrow. The patient will therefore need these blood-forming cells replaced after the chemotherapy treatment.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Comparative, Patient-blinded Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of G-CSF Alone Versus AMD3100 (240 µg/kg) Added to a G-CSF Mobilization Regimen in Adult Patients With Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL), Hodgkins Disease (HD) or Multiple Myeloma (MM) Who Have Previously Failed Stem Cell Collections or Collection Attempts

Some patients with multiple myeloma or lymphoma will need treatment with high dose chemotherapy to treat their condition. This potent treatment will kill many of the blood-forming cells in the bone marrow. The patient will therefore need these blood-forming cells replaced after the chemotherapy treatment. This is done by collecting some of teh patients own blood-forming stem cells before chemotherapy, storing them and then infusing them into the patient after chemotherapy (in the same way as a blood transfusion is given). The stem cells will then make their way unto the bone marrow and re-populate it. Having stem cells collected and returned later is called an "Autologous Transplant".

In most patients these blood-forming stem cells (which normally live in the bone marrow) are "mobilized" into the blood stream where they are then collected by a process called apheresis (a bit like donating blood). This process of mobilization is not always successful. In this study patients who did not collect enough stem cells in a previous cell collection attempt to have an autologous stem cell transplant will participate. Patients will be mobilized with G-CSF (current standard treatment to mobilize stem cells) and the effect of adding AMD3100 to G-CSF will be studied by comparing outcomes in patients who get G-CDF with placebo (non-active substance which looks like AMD3100) to patients who get G-CSF with AMD3100.

AMD3100 is a member of a new class of medications called "chemokine inhibitors". The drug triggers the movement of stem cells out of the bone marrow into the blood stream. In previous studies with healthy volunteers and cancer patients, when AMD3100 and G-CSF were used in combination, a greater number of stem cells were mobilized into the blood stream than by using g-CSF alone.

The purposes of this study are to measure how many stem cells can be collected, the number of days to collect those cells and the safety of a mobilization regimen of AMD3100 with G-CSF compared to G-CSF with placebo. If enough cells are collected to have a transplant, the study will also evaluate how well the cells grow when transplanted.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, comparative, patient-blinded study. Patients with NHL, HD or MM who would benefit from an autologous stem cell transplant, who failed previous collections or collection attempts with a mobilization regimen of chemotherapy with or wihoutG-CSF, and who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria are eligible to receive AMD3100(240µg/kg) or placebo (both given as an evening dose).

Patients will undergo mobilization with G-CSF (10µg/kg) for 4 consecutive days. On Day 4, AMD3100 (240µg/kg) or placebo will be administered in the evening prior to the first apheresis and each subsequent evening prior to apheresis thereafter, such that there is a 10 to 11 hour interval between dosing and the initiation of apheresis. Patients will continue to receive G-CSF on each day of apheresis. G-CSF will be administered in the morning and approximately 1 hour prior to apheresis. Patients will undergo a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 7 aphereses until a minimum of 2x10^6 CD34+ cells/kg or greater than or equal to 5x10^6 CD34+cells/kg are collected. More cells may be collected, if done within the 7 aphereses. Patients who are to receive a tandem transplant will undergo a minimum of 2 and maximum of 7 aphereses until a minimum of 4x10^6 CD34+ cells/kg are collected. Aphereses should be performed on consecutive days (including weekend days)

The patient will have a peripheral blood (PB) sample collected to measure the number of CD34+ cell in PB at baseline prior to administration of G-CSF, prior to each administration of AMD3100 or placebo and at the initiation of apheresis. In addition, a sample will be obtained from each apheresis product to measure the number of CD34+ cells collected in the apheresis product.

Patients who fail to collect greater than or equal to 0.8x10^6 CD34+ cells/kg in 7 aphereses will be offered a rescue arm giving AMD3100 plus G-CSF.

Patients will undergo their ablative chemotherapy before transplantation. Patients will then be transplanted. The success of the transplantation will be evaluated. Graft durability will be evaluated to 12 months post-transplant. In the event that a sufficient number of cells for transplantation are not obtained from the collections, cells may be retained, pooled, and transplanted at a later date at the Investigator's discretion.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Plerixafor (AMD3100) and Can be any registered nonpegylated form of G-CSF in people with Lymphoma and Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma, run by Genzyme, a Sanofi Company at 5 sites in Germany.

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 15 inclusion and 12 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 11 Feb 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Germany. 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?

To determine if patients reach a target of ≥ 2x10^6 CD34+ cells/kg within 2 days of apheresis in Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL), Hodgkin's Disease (HD) or Multiple Myeloma (MM) patients who are proven poor mobilizer. (time frame: after last apheresis). 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 11 Feb 2014.
