Trial summary

This is a single institution, phase I dose escalation study of weekly romiplostim post umbilical cord blood transplantation in patients who fail to achieve platelet engraftment by day +30. Engraftment is defined as a platelet count ≥ 20 x 109/L on 3 consecutive measurements without transfusion for 7 days. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Safety of Romiplostim (Nplate®) in Patients Who Have Failed to Achieve Platelet Engraftment Following Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant

This is a single institution, phase I dose escalation study of weekly romiplostim post umbilical cord blood transplantation in patients who fail to achieve platelet engraftment by day +30. Engraftment is defined as a platelet count ≥ 20 x 109/L on 3 consecutive measurements without transfusion for 7 days. Romiplostim is administered at the assigned dose as 6 weekly injections beginning by day +42 post transplant. Up to 4 dose levels (4, 6, 8, and 10 mcg/kg/dose) will be evaluated with the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of romiplostim determined by using the Continual Reassessment Method (CRM). The goal of this CRM will be to identify 1 of the 4 dose levels which corresponds to the desired maximum toxicity rate of 20% or less.

What participants receive

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

  • RomiplostimDrug

    Also called Nplate

    Romiplostim at the assigned dose will be administered subcutaneously (SQ) once a week for 6 weeks. The dose will be assigned at the time of subject registration. This is a dose escalation to determine the maximum tolerated dose. The doses include 4 mcg/kg/dose, 6 mcg/kg/dose, 8 mcg/kg/dose, and 10 mcg/kg/dose.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Romiplostim treatmentExperimentalRomiplostim at the assigned dose will be administered subcutaneously (SQ) once a week for 6 weeks (i.e. 6 doses) unless platelet count exceeds 100 x 10^9/L and at least 4 doses of therapy were given.After the initial dose, subsequent doses will be administered within a window of +/- 3 days.
Receives: Drug: Romiplostim

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose of romiplostim

    Measured by number of patients who have failed to achieve platelet engraftment by day +28 after a myeloablative or nonmyeloablative umbilical cord blood transplant (UCBT)

    Measured: Day +28 blood transplant (UCBT)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Platelet recovery

    Average speed of platelet recovery in patients who have failed to achieve platelet engraftment.

    Measured: Day +28

  2. Thrombocytopenia

    Incidence of clinically significant bleeding episodes and number of platelet transfusions.

    Measured: Day +28

  3. Bone marrow fibrosis

    Incidence of bone marrow fibrosis.

    Measured: Day 100 post transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Romiplostim in people with Hematologic Malignancies, run by Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota 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 11 inclusion and 5 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 8 Jun 2021. 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 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.

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?

Maximum tolerated dose of romiplostim (time frame: Day +28 blood transplant (UCBT)). 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 8 Jun 2021.
