About this study

Official title: A Phase I Single-arm, Open-label Prospective Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Peripheral Blood Derived Autologous Multi-lineage Potential Cells (AMPC) in Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AMPCAL Study)

A private trial for evaluating the overall response rate contributed by AMPC in AML in refractory or relapsed AML

Read the detailed description

After inclusion and exclusion criteria has been determined and approved, written informed consent will be obtained from the candidate. All medical history relevant to the diagnosis of AML will be collected.

Screening period:

The screening period could extend from 0 to 7 days depending on the completion of screening laboratory results as below.

On day -5 (up to day -1), the patient will undergo a screening test for the following test items:

  • BUN, creatinine, electrolyte, liver function test (LFT)
  • Full blood count (FBC), including blood smear
  • Hepatitis B/C
  • Human T lymphocytic virus type I and II (HTLV-I/II)
  • HIV1/2
  • Syphilis serology
  • Mycoplasma serology For Hepatitis B/C,HTLV-I/II, HIV1/2, Syphilis serology, and Mycoplasma serology, these tests obtained up to 3 months prior to day -5 can be allowed for using as screening result.
  • Chest X-ray
  • Bone marrow study including aspiration with wright's stain, biopsy, flow cytometry, and chromosome study (Any molecular testing for AML is optional.).

Bone marrow biopsy can be omitted if the prior study performed within 14 days before day-5 and the available materials (core biopsy and slides) and result can be obtained for pathological review. In this case, only bone marrow aspiration for Wright's stain, flow cytometry, and chromosome study will be performed.

Bone marrow biopsy will be repeated if the previous result has been performed more than 14 days prior to day -5 and/or FBC at day -5 reveals peripheral blast count higher than 10% of total white blood cells.

For chromosome study (cytogenetics), the previous result before the recent line of chemotherapy prior to enrollment can be used for the screening data.

On day 0, peripheral blood will then be collected, ranging from 250mL to 400mL depending on candidate fitness. The blood is collected into a sterile blood bag and sealed. Subsequent processes will be conducted in the blood bag within a closed-system to minimize contamination risks. FBC will be collected in order to determine the disease status. After that, the investigator will consider to prescribe blood transfusion for the candidate.

On day 0 to day 3, the collected blood will be sent to the laboratory for stem cell culture, and a sample of the collected blood will be sent to a third-party laboratory for contamination testing of the following parameters:

  • Bacterial endotoxin
  • Total viable aerobic count
  • Total viable count
  • Microbial growth
  • Mycoplasma real-time PCR test

On day 4, the biotest results will be released and the safety profiles of the AMPC product must be completed and passed before the cultured stem cells may be released for treatment

On day 5, candidates will receive an infusion of the cultured stem cells. Prior to the infusion, FBC and blood chemistry (BUN, Cr, electrolyte, LFT) will be collected and the treating doctor will first conduct an allergy skin test to determine suitability for reinfusion. The cultured stem cells are then reinfused intravenously into the candidate in a process that could take up to 2 hours

The candidate participation will take place on day 0 to day 1 or 2 (if blood transfusion is required) and day 5 (period adjusted for blood transfusion if required) for peripheral blood collection and stem cell reinfusion respectively; with 12 month follow up after treatment;

  • 3 days post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test and blood smear, BUN, Cr, electrolyte, LFT
  • 10 days post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test and blood smear, BUN, Cr, electrolyte, LFT
  • 1 month (+/-7 days) post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test and blood smear, BUN, Cr, electrolyte, LFT, bone marrow study
  • 3 month (+/-7 days) post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test and blood smear, BUN, Cr, electrolyte, LFT, bone marrow study
  • 6 month (+/-7 days) post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test with bone marrow study
  • 12 month (+/-7 days) post-treatment follow-up: full blood count test with bone marrow study

What participants receive

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

  • Autologous Multi-lineage Potential Cells (AMPC)Biological

    Multi-lineage potential cells which were induced to de-differentiate from somatic leukocytes from peripheral blood. Cells are autologous with respect to the patient, and are prepared in a suspension and administered via intravenous infusion.

    An estimated average of 1 x 10^8 (0.5 to 5.0 x 10^8) cells/per suspension(275 to 450mL) will be infused into the patient via intravenous infusion on day 5. Cell counts depend on yield of initial leukocyte harvest on day 0.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall response rate (ORR) of AMPC in refractory/relapsed AML at 12 months

    Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as whether the patient achieves complete remission (CR) or complete remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi)

    CR Requirements:

    • Bone marrow aspiration shows less than 5% of abnormal blasts as determined by evidence from flow cytometry or immunohistochemistry
    • Bone marrow biopsy shows no clusters of blast cell
    • Normal values for absolute neutrophil count in peripheral blood exceeds 1,000/microL
    • Platelet count in peripheral blood exceeds 100,000/microL
    • Absence of extramedullary AML

    CRi Requirements:

    • All parameters of CR except platelet recovery or neutrophil recovery
    • Incomplete recovery-platelet count is less than 100,000/microL or neutrophil count less than 1,000/microL in peripheral blood

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Safety profile and treatment-related adverse events (AE) upto 12-month follow up period

    AE is defined as any unintended or undesirable experience that occur during the course of the clinical investigation regardless of whether they are considered to be drug-related.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. ORR of AMPC in refractory/relapsed AML at 3 and 6 months

    Measured: 3 and 6 months

  3. Overall survival (OS) rate at 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Time-to-next treatment (TTNT), defined as the time from the start of AMPC therapy to the start date of a subsequent line of therapy.

    Measured: 12 months

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Supachai Ekwattanakit, Ph.D, M.D. (+66-86393-3452, supachai.ekw@mahidol.ac.th), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall response rate (ORR) of AMPC in refractory/relapsed AML at 12 months (time frame: 12 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?
