Trial summary

This study is designed to collect longitudinal biological samples from patients after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) cared for at multiple bone marrow transplant centers to validate biomarkers of both acute and chronic GVHD as well as for use in future unspecified research.

About this study

This study is designed to collect longitudinal biological samples from patients after hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) cared for at multiple bone marrow transplant centers to validate biomarkers of both acute and chronic GVHD as well as for use in future unspecified research. The centers include Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Boston's Children's Hospital, Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Texas Children's Hospital, Children's National Medical Center, and Indiana University Simon Cancer Center.

Read the detailed description

After informed consent is signed, this study will involve 1) collection of basic HCT data and clinical data available in the medical record and 2) providing blood (and saliva in occasional cases) samples for processing, storage, DNA extraction, and analysis (including a seven biomarker protein panel as well as future unspecified research purposes).

Pediatric and adult patients will be included (all adult patients will be from the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the Johns Hopkins Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center).

Primary Objective:

  1. To confirm that ST2 alone or the seven-biomarker panel measured at initiation of GVHD therapy predict a) D180 post-therapy non-relapse mortality; b) D28 post-therapy non-response, and c) GVHD grade 1-4 onset D180 post-therapy non-relapse mortality.

Secondary Objective:

  1. To demonstrate that ST2 alone or the seven-biomarker panel measured at day 14 or day 21 post-HCT (or a combination of these time points) predicts D180 post-HCT non-relapse mortality.
  2. To demonstrate that ST2 alone or the seven-biomarker panel measured at initiation of GVHD symptoms/therapy diagnose acute GVHD as compared to other complications presenting with similar symptoms (drug rash, CMV, Clostridium enteritis).
  3. To demonstrate that ST2 alone or the seven-biomarker panel measured at initiation of GVHD symptoms/therapy diagnose the severity of acute GVHD at onset and maximum.
  4. To develop a repository of biospecimens linked to clinical data for future unspecified research.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Non Relapse Mortality (NRM) by Age and ST2 at 12 Months Post-HCT

    To measure stimulation-2 (ST2) pre-HCT by number of participants at 12 months post-HCT for non-relapse mortality according to ST2 values and age less than or equal to 10 and greater than 10 using landmark analyses.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Graft-Versus-Host Disease, run by Indiana University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Feb 2021). 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 With Non Relapse Mortality (NRM) by Age and ST2 at 12 Months Post-HCT (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02194439, 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 26 Feb 2021.
