About this study

Official title: Assessment of the Effect of a Co-treatment With GnRH Analogs on the Ovarian Reserve in Adolescents and Young Women Treated With Alkylating Agents for Cancer

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a temporary ovarian suppression obtained by administration of a gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist during alkylating agents containing chemotherapy on ovarian reserve assessed by Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) serum levels in adolescents and young women with cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a French, Prospective, Multicentre, Open, Randomised study To determine the efficacy of a temporary ovarian suppression obtained by administration of a Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone agonist (GnRHa) on maintaining ovarian reserve, patients will be randomized, half of them receiving Triptorelin extended release (LP) 3 mg intramuscularly every 28±3 days, starting at the inclusion visit and at least 72 days before chemotherapy with alkylating agents until 1 month after end of chemotherapy (mean duration: 12 months).

The primary objective of the study is to determine the effect of a temporary ovarian suppression achieved through administration of a gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (triptorelin LP 3 mg) during alkylating agents containing chemotherapy on ovarian reserve assessed by AMH serum levels in adolescents and young women with cancer.

Number of centres 19 Research period

  • Recruitment duration 2 years
  • The duration of participation of each patient is: 3 years
  • The duration of the treatment period is: 1 year
  • The duration of the follow-up period is: 2 years
  • Total duration: 5 years

Statistical analysis:

  1. Sample size and design One Hundred and sixty (160) patients will be included in this study in order to ensure at least 128 patients who will complete the study. This number of patients should allow us to identify with a power of 80 % a difference of 5 pmol/L in AMH serum levels between the two groups, when accepting a risk alpha of 0.05.
  2. Analysis populations The main analysis will be an intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis, which will be performed on all the randomized patients with a value of the main criterion of judgment (AMH level at M24). A per-protocol (PP) analysis will also be performed, as a secondary analysis, excluding patients with major protocol deviation defined a priori.
  3. Primary criteria The value of AMH level at month 24will be compared between the two treatment groups using a test t of Student if AMH values are normally distributed and a non-parametric Wilcoxon test if not.

What participants receive

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

  • Triptorelin (GnRHa) + ChemotherapyDrug

    Also called GnRH Agonist injections

    During her chemotherapy, the patient in the experimental arm will have regular injections of Triptorelin (DECAPEPTYL LP 3 mg, IPSEN) in order to preserve her fertility

What is being measured

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

  1. Variation in AMH serum levels between both groups

    Centralised hormonal dosages

    Measured: at 24 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of patients with AMH serum levels < 5th percentile in each group

    Measured: at 24 months

  2. Intra-patient variation in AMH serum levels between groups

    Centralised hormonal dosages and study of potential factors associated with the efficacy of GnRHa co-treatment in preventing ovarian reserve loss (if there is one)

    Measured: up to 36 months

  3. Antral Follicular Count (AFC) on ultrasound between the 2 groups

    centralised blind evaluation by an independent reader on compact disc (CD) registration of AFC

    Measured: at month 24

  4. Delay of resumption of menses between the 2 groups

    Comparison of delay of resumption of menses between the 2 groups

    Measured: up to the end of the follow up (an average of 3 years)

  5. Levels of markers of ovarian reserve: AMH, Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), Estradiol between groups

    Centralised hormon dosage

    Measured: at months 12, 24 and 36

  6. Pregnancy rate in the 2 groups

    Measured: up to the end of the follow up (an average of 3 years)

  7. Adverse events related to Triptorelin co-treatment

    Measured: up to the end of the follow up (an average of 3 years)

  8. Relative change in Bone Mass Density (BMD) of the lumbar spine, left femoral neck and whole body in the 2 groups

    centralised blind evaluation by an independent reader on CD registration of BMD assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry

    Measured: at the baseline and at month 12 and month 36

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Triptorelin (GnRHa) + Chemotherapy in people with Cancer and Toxicity Due to Chemotherapy, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2019. 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 France. 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 combined 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.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Variation in AMH serum levels between both groups (time frame: at 24 months). 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 17 Dec 2019.
