About this study

Official title: Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Bortezomib Induced Peripheral Neuropathy of Multiple Myeloma (MM) Patients.

In the present study we are planning to study electrophysiological changes related to the dose and time of bortezomib administration in newly diagnosed patients with MM, during the first months of treatment and 6 months after ending. In addition a possible correlation between the incidence of BIPN and the subtype of myeloma and other risk factors will be investigated.

What participants receive

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

  • EMGProcedure or surgery

    Nerve conduction study will be consisted of sequential evaluation of the motor nerves: median, ulnar, peroneal and tibial; and the sensory nerves: median, ulnar, superficial peroneal and sural nerves using a standardized protocol

What is being measured

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

  1. A dose-related neurotoxic effect of bortezomib will be determined through regression analysis with the change in TNSr as the dependent variable Bortezomib doses will use as independent variables.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To accommodate the dose of bortezomib with the progression of Peripheral Neuropathy

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing EMG in people with Multiple Myeloma and Peripheral Neuropathy, run by Wolfson Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Mar 2009. 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 Israel. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Husam Ghoti, MD (972-35028778, drghoti123@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

A dose-related neurotoxic effect of bortezomib will be determined through regression analysis with the change in TNSr as the dependent variable Bortezomib doses will use as independent variables. (time frame: 3 months). 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 31 Mar 2009.
