About this study

Official title: A Multicentre, Adaptive, Randomised, Multidomain, Platform Trial for Dose Optimization in the Treatment of Adult Patients With Haematological Diseases (BLOOD-dose): Core Protocol

BLOOD-dose is a multicentre, adaptive, randomized, multidomain platform trial designed to optimize treatment dosing strategies in adult patients with haematological diseases.

The BLOOD-dose core protocol outlines the overall clinical trial design that applies to all included interventions, while domain-specific appendices (DSA) detail the unique characteristics of each domain and specify domain-specific interventions.

New domains will be incorporated over time to address distinct dose-optimization research questions across different haematological conditions and interventions.

Read the detailed description

Background:

Approved dosing regimens in haematology are largely derived from clinical trials conducted in relatively homogeneous patient populations, which may not reflect the diversity encountered in routine clinical practice. Many new anticancer and haematological treatments are developed using early phase trial designs that define dose selection primarily based on dose-limiting toxicity, often aiming to establish a maximum tolerated dose. While this approach supports regulatory approval, it may not identify the optimal biological or clinically effective dose for long-term treatment. This uncertainty may contribute to overtreatment, increased toxicity, impaired quality of life, and unnecessary healthcare costs. Furthermore, established long-term or life-long treatment regimens represent important opportunities for dose optimization, especially as therapeutic strategies and patient needs evolve over time.

Platform trials provide an efficient framework to evaluate multiple interventions within a single disease area under a unified master protocol. In domain-based platform trials, interventions are grouped into predefined domains, enabling efficient comparisons, rapid progress, and the addition of new research domains over time.

Objectives:

The BLOOD-dose platform trial aims to determine the optimal treatment intensity for patients with haematological diseases. Due to disease heterogeneity, objectives, endpoints, and estimands will vary across domains.

Outcomes:

Given the heterogeneity of haematological diseases, objectives, endpoints, and estimands will differ across domains. A core outcome set (COS) comprising 6 core outcome measurements has been established through a Delphi consensus process. Each domain is expected to include at least one core outcome measure as its primary endpoint, with all other core outcomes included as secondary endpoints.

Design:

BLOOD-dose is an investigator-initiated, multicentre, adaptive, randomized, multidomain platform trial.

Domains and interventions:

Interventions across different haematological diseases will be defined in domain-specific appendices that will be amended over time.

Eligibility:

In addition to meeting the core protocol eligibility criteria, participants must also meet the domain-specific eligibility criteria for at least one domain.

    Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events. AEs of interest will be specified in the DSA.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Hospital Admission

    Rate of hospitalisation per 100-participant-patient years. The end of follow-up period will be defined in the DSA.

    Measured: From Time of randomization to end of follow-up, assessed up to 2 years.

  5. Cost of intervention

    Exposure to trial medicinal products.

    Measured: From first dose to last recorded date of dosing OR From randomization to last recorded date of dosing or end of study, whichever occurs first, assessed up to 2 years.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Denmark. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Anne Louise Tølbøll Sørensen, Ass. Prof. (+45 35451864, anne.louise.toelboell.soerensen@regionh.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall survival (time frame: OS is defined as the time from randomization until the time of death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years.). 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 NCT07474961, 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 16 Mar 2026.
