About this study

Official title: Plerixafor Rescue Mobilization For Autologous Stem Cell Transplant Patients With Inadequate Response to G-CSF

Plerixafor, administered at a dose of 240 ug/kg, potentiates the effect of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to increase peripheral blood progenitor cells in both healthy volunteers and cancer patients. Furthermore, in cancer patients, cells collected via apheresis using Plerixafor and G-CSF have been successfully transplanted. In December 2008, Plerixafor received approval from the Food and Drug administration for use in combination with G-CSF to aid in mobilization of progenitor cells for apheresis. The proposed study is not designed to support approval of a new indication or change in the advertising for Plerixafor. The route of administration and dosage level are identical to that which is listed on the package insert. Although Plerixafor is not approved for patients with Hodgkins Lymphoma, there is no known or theoretic increased risk of the use of this drug in this patient population.

The study hypothesis for this study is that patients with a circulating CD34+ count < 20 cells/ul after 5 days of mobilization with G-CSF alone will achieve > or equal to 2 X 10(6)CD34+ cells/kg within 3 days of apheresis after receiving Plerixafor with G-CSF.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center, Phase 2, open-label study. All patients diagnosed with non-hodgkins lymphoma, hodgkins disease or multiple myeloma and candidates for autologous transplantation are eligible to enter into the study. The only change to the standard of care is the addition of 240 ug/kg Plerixafor following 5 days of (G-CSF) mobilization.

The results of the study will provide both numeric and categorical estimates of measurements of the safety and efficacy of Plerixafor. The primary efficacy endpoint, Treatment Success, is a binary response variable categorizing whether the patient was able to mobilize at least 2 X 10(6) CD34+ cells/kg within 3 days of apheresis.

The percentage of patients achieving Treatment Success will be summarized. All AEs will be followed for 30 days after the last apheresis or until the first dose of ablative chemotherapy, whichever occurs first. All SAEs will be followed for 6 months post-transplant or until relapse. All patients who receive at least one dose of Plerixafor will be included in all summaries of AEs.

What participants receive

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

  • G-CSF plus PlerixaforDrug

    Also called Mozobil, AMD3100

    On Day 5 of G-CSF mobilization,

    1. if the patient's peripheral CD34+ cell count is < 7cells/µl then 240ug/kg Plerixafor will be given in the evening prior to receiving 10µg/kg G-CSF and undergoing apheresis the next morning for up to 3 days of apheresis or until ≥ 5x10(6) cells/kg are collected.
    2. if the patient's peripheral CD34+ cell count is 7 to 19 cells/ul (inclusive), apheresis will be done. If the apheresis yield is < 1.3x10(6) CD34+ cells/kg then 240ug/kg Plerixafor will be given in the evening prior to receiving 10 µg/kg G-CSF and undergoing apheresis the next morning. If the apheresis yield is at least double that on Day 5, Plerixafor followed the next morning by G-CSF and apheresis will be repeated for up to a total of 3 days of apheresis or until 5x10(6) cells/kg are collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Who Achieved > or Equal to 2 X 10(6)CD34+ Cells/kg Within 3 Days of Apheresis After Receiving Plerixafor With G-CSF.

    Measured: 5 days after receiving G-CSF

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Participants Experiencing a Grade III/IV Toxicity

    Safety of plerixafor as measured by Grade III/IV Toxicity

    Measured: 6 months post transplant or until relapse

  2. Number of Subjects Experiencing Graft Failure

    To investigate the hematological activity of Plerixafor as measured by Graft Failure. Graft failure is defined as failure of initial engraftment (primary graft failure) or initial engraftment, but subsequent loss of hematopoiesis (secondary graft failure).

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Days to Absolute Neutrophil Count >500

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Number of Subjects Experiencing Durability of Engraftment

    Durability of engraftment is defined as the duration and stability of hematopoiesis following autologous transplantation. Subjects who experience durable engraftment have neutrophil counts greater than 500 and platelet counts greater than 20,000 within the specified time frame.

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Platelet Engraftment

    Days to platelet count >20,000

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing G-CSF plus Plerixafor in people with Multiple Myeloma and Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, run by Duke 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 16 inclusion and 10 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 7 May 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 May 2014). 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 Participants Who Achieved > or Equal to 2 X 10(6)CD34+ Cells/kg Within 3 Days of Apheresis After Receiving Plerixafor With G-CSF. (time frame: 5 days after receiving G-CSF). 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 7 May 2014.
