About this study

Official title: A Phase 3 Study of Velcade (Bortezomib) Dexamethasone (VD) Versus Velcade (Bortezomib) Thalidomide Dexamethasone (VTD) as an Induction Treatment Prior to Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma

Primary objective:

  • Compare the complete remission (CR) rates (i.e., the true CR, with negative immunofixation) achieved with either four courses of VD or four courses of VTD.

Secondary objectives:

  • Compare the following parameters following 4 cycles of VD or VTD induction treatment:
  • CR rate+ very good partial remission (VGPR) rate
  • Overall remission rate (CR + VGPR + partial remission (PR) rate)
  • K/l light chain ratio in patients in CR.
  • Safety (quality of the sampled stem cells, extrahaematological and haematological toxicity: specially neurological toxicity, length of hospitalization).
  • Compare the CR rate and the CR + VGPR rates after post-induction autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Velcade-Dexamethasone and Velcade-Thalidomide-Dexamethasone in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Intergroupe Francophone du Myelome at 56 sites in 2 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 6 inclusion and 20 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 1 Jun 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 56 sites in France, Belgium. 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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00910897, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Jun 2009; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
