Chronic Lymphoid LeukemiaPhase 3D-HEMNCT01518959
The Effect of 25-OH-Vitamin-D3 Substitution in Patients With Malignant and Immune-hematologic Diseases
A Phase 3 study testing Cholecalciferol and oleum neutralicum in people with Chronic Lymphoid Leukemia, run by Semmelweis University at 1 site in Hungary.
Trial summary
Recent data have shown that the inadequate vitamin D status plays a role in the manifestation of the haematologic tumors and serum vitamin D level has a prognostic role also as it determines the tumor mortality. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Phase III, Controlled, Double-blind, Randomized Study of 25-OH-Vitamin-D3 Substitution in Patients With Malignant and Immune-hematologic Diseases
Recent data have shown that the inadequate vitamin D status plays a role in the manifestation of the haematologic tumors and serum vitamin D level has a prognostic role also as it determines the tumor mortality. But data have not proved a causal relationship between the inadequate vitamin D status and the unfavourable outcomes so far. It is also still unknown, whether the normalization of vitamin D status in patient with vitamin D inadequacy is able to improve the prognosis and survival.
In this study the investigators examine the role of the adequate vitamin D substitution in the improvement of the outcomes of haematologic disorders.

- Chronic Lymphoid Leukemia

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.

But data have not proved a causal relationship between the inadequate vitamin D status and the unfavourable outcomes so far. It is also still unknown, whether the normalization of vitamin D status in patient with vitamin D inadequacy is able to improve the prognosis and survival.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Cholecalciferol and oleum neutralicum in people with Chronic Lymphoid Leukemia, run by Semmelweis University at 1 site in Hungary.
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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2020. 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 Hungary. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Insufficient recruitment rate; technical issues with sample storage). 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.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall survival (time frame: up to 5 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 16 Jul 2020.
