About this study

Official title: Descriptive Study of the Efficacy of Treatments for Blastic Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN): a Retrospective Study of Patients Diagnosed in France From 2000 to 2013

Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare disease characterized by an aggressive clinical behavior and a poor prognosis. It predominantly affects elderly males with an average age of 67 years at diagnosis and the affected organs are usually the skin, bone marrow, lymph nodes and the central nervous system. Patients with BPDCN have poor outcomes with median overall survival (OS) ranging in the largest series of patients from 8 to 12 months.

Patient care must be defined in this pathology. Despite 40%-90% complete remission (CR) rates after initial chemotherapy, relapses are almost inevitable.

The investigators have developed a national network to collect clinical and biological data of French patients diagnosed with BPDCN.

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, date of end of data collection

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. description of clinical profiles of patients

    presence of cutaneous lesions

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  2. description of biological profiles of patients

    immunophenotyping profile

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  3. complete remission rate

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  4. mean duration of the first remission

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  5. survival without events

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  6. non-responders rate

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  7. time interval between two treatments

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

  8. mortality without relapse

    Measured: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, end of data collection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm and Hematological Malignancies, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 9 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

description of the efficacy of treatments for BPDCN (time frame: from the diagnosis to death or until June 2013, date of end of data collection). 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 9 Aug 2016.
