About this study

Official title: Nordic Society of Paediatric Haematology and Oncology Treatment Protocol for Children (1.0 - 17.9 Years of Age) and Young Adults (18-45 Years of Age) With ALL. Efficacy of Individualised 6MP Dosing During Consolidation Therapy

The purpose of this study is to increase the fraction of patients, who become MRD-negative during consolidation for the non-HR ALL group through individualized intensification of the 6MP-dosage days 30-85.

Read the detailed description

20% of children with ALL still fails to be cured. The ALL-2008 protocol is a treatment and research protocol that aims to improve the overall outcome of Nordic children and adolescents with ALL in comparison with the ALL-2000 protocol and previous NOPHO protocols.

The specific and primary objectives of the randomised study is:

To increase the fraction of patients, who become MRD-negative during consolidation for the non-HR ALL group through individualised intensification of the 6MP-dosage days 30-85. We will additionally measure EFS and toxicity as secondary end points of effect.

What participants receive

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

  • 6MPindividualizedDrug

    Also called PuriNethol, Puri-Nethol (6-mercaptopurine)

    Oral 6-mercaptopurine with a starting dose of 25 mg/m2 and upward adjusted in steps of 25 mg/m2 (i.e. 50 or 75 mg/m2) if unacceptable bone-marrox toxicity is not encountered

  • 6MPfixedDrug

    Also called PuriNethol, Puri-Nethol (6-mercaptopurine)

    Oral 6-mercaptopurine at a fixed dose of 25 mg/m2 treatment days 30-85

What is being measured

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

  1. Fraction of patients that become MRD-negative at treatment days 85 and/or 92 (end-of-consolidation) and event-free survival. MRD is measured either by Flow-cytometry (for PreB-ALL patients) or PCR for clonal generearrangements(for T-ALL patients)

    Measured: 6 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Toxicity of treatment, degree of myelo-, hepato- and renal toxicity; and development of asparaginase antibodies.

    Measured: 6 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 6MPindividualized and 6MPfixed in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet at 6 sites in 5 countries.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Fraction of patients that become MRD-negative at treatment days 85 and/or 92 (end-of-consolidation) and event-free survival. MRD is measured either by Flow-cytometry (for PreB-ALL patients) or PCR for clonal generearrangements(for T-ALL patients) (time frame: 6 years). 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 21 Apr 2017.
