About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Study of Reduced Toxicity Myeloablative Conditioning Regimen for Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a rare X-linked congenital immune-deficiency syndrome and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has become a curative modality. But the transplant with the conventional conditioning resulted in high incidence of treatment related toxicities and non-myeloablative conditioning resulted in high incidence of engraftment failure. Recently, fludarabine based reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning regimen was developed for adult myeloid malignancies with promising result of good engraftment and low treatment related toxicities. To increase the engraftment potential without serious complication, reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning regimen composed of fludarabine, busulfan, and thymoglobulin is designed for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome.

Read the detailed description

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an rare X-linked congenital immune-deficiency syndrome characterized by the triad of recurrent infection, eczema and thrombocytopenia with small size of platelet (Puck JM, 2006). Clinical studies revealed high rate of autoimmune disorder and malignancy in WAS (Ochs HD, 2006). The identification of the molecular defect in 1994 (Derry JM, 1994) has broadened the clinical spectrum of the syndrome to include chronic or intermittent X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT), a relatively mild form of WAS and X-lined neutropenia caused by an arrest of myelopoiesis (Ochs HD, 2006).

The incidence of WAS in Korea was very low and only 6 patients diagnosed between 2001 and 2005 (Kim JG, 2006).

Conventional treatments for WAS such as prophylactic antibiotics and immune globin for infection and platelet transfusion for bleeding were not so successful (Thrasher AJ, 2000). Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from an HLA-matched related donor is an effective treatment (Filipovich AH, 2001) and patients without appropriate related donor could receive alternative stem cell source such as matched unrelated donor or cord blood. But the transplant with the alternative donor needed more intensive conditioning to overcome the hematologic and immunologic barrier with increased treatment related toxicity. Further progress depends in particular on the development of alternative preparative conditioning regimens which allow stable engraftment of donor precursor cells with minimal systemic toxic side effects (Friedrich W, 2004).

Recently, we reported successful unrelated bone marrow transplantation in a boy with WAS with reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning regimen to increase the engraftment potential without serious complication (Kang, 2008), and extended to multicenter phase I/II pilot study with this reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning regimen in the HSCT for WAS.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Fludarabine, Busulfan, Thymoglobulin in people with Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome, run by The Korean Society of Pediatric Hematology Oncology at 1 site in South Korea.

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 11 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Jul 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 South Korea. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 evaluate the engraftment potential of fludarabine, busulfan plus thymoglobulin conditioning regimen for HSCT in WAS. (time frame: Feb. 2007 to Jan. 2012). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 14 Jul 2014.
