About this study

Official title: Anti-CMV Pilot Clinical Trial: Prophylaxis of Cytomegalovirus Infection in Haploidentical Transplatation of Hematopoietic Progenitors With Adoptive Cell Inmunotherapy

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality for recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT). Recently, strategies based on immunotherapy adoptive cells (IAC) with anti-CMV Cytolitic T Lymphocytes (CMV-CTLs) has been incorporated to prevent or treat CMV after HSCT. The aim to study donor derived CMV-CTLs after haploidentical HSCT (HAPLO) as prophylaxis for CMV infection in transplant patients. CMV-CTLs will be administer at day 21 (+-7 days) post-HAPLO. CMV DNA levels with quantitative PCR will be weekly monitored.

Read the detailed description

In HAPLO, CMV infection and disease are more frequent than in other type of HSCT, this is related to delayed immune reconstitution after transplant increasing post-transplant infectious complications. Approximately 60% of patients reactivated CMV infection after HAPLO and 15%, developed CMV disease afecting organs and causing the death of the patient in 8% of CMV disease cases.

If patient and donor are eligible, it will take 1x10^9 cells from donor leukapheresis. Donor cells will be selected and procesed by CliniMACs PRODIGY and after 12h it will obtain 7mL of CMV-CTLs. It will use 6mL of CMV-CTLs to infused a dose of 1x10^5 cells/kg in our patient. The donor derived CMV-CTL cells will be transfused into the patients' intravenous line. The patients will receive the dose of CMV-CTL cells when they are sero-positive for CMV-DNA 21 (+- 7 days) days after transplant.

The CMV-DNA levels will be monitored weekly for at least 100 days after the transplant. If after the initial dose of CMV-CTL cells the patient develops a viral infection, then the patient will receive treatment with anti-CMV comercial drugs.

What participants receive

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

  • CMV CTLsBiological

    The donor derived cytomegalovirus specific T lymphocytes (CMV-CTL) will be transfused to the patients. The patients will receive CMV-CTL cells when their donors are sero-positive for CMV-DNA 21 days after transplant. The CMV-DNA levels will be monitored weekly for at least 100 days after the HAPLO. If after the initial dose of CMV-CTL cells the patient develops a viral infection, then they may be eligible to receive a CMV specific antiviral drug.

What is being measured

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

  1. 100-days incidence of CMV infection

    Viral load >200 copies in 1 sample

    Measured: From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 100 days after transplant

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. 1-year incidence of CMV specific antiviral drug use

    If viral load >200 copies in 2 samples or >1000 in 1 sample, treatment with valganciclovir will be started.

    Time from CMV-CTLs infusion until valganciclovir start and days of valganciclovir.

    Measured: From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 1 year after transplant

  2. 1-year incidence of CMV disease

    CMV disease P.Lungman criteria. CMV as primary cause of death.

    Measured: From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 1 year after transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CMV CTLs in people with CMV, run by Instituto de Investigación Marqués de Valdecilla at 1 site in Spain.

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 10 inclusion and 15 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2024. 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 Spain. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Miriam Sanchez-Escamilla, MD (+34646393234, msanchez@idival.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

100-days incidence of CMV infection (time frame: From date of CMV-CTLs infusion to 100 days after transplant). 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 28 Aug 2024.
