About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Stem Cell Mobilization and Harvesting From the Peripheral Blood Using Filgrastim

To determine the safety of stem cell harvesting after administration of filgrastim ( G-CSF ) to mobilize bone marrow stem cells into the peripheral blood in patients at various stages of HIV-1 infection as well as in HIV-negative volunteers. To determine the surface phenotypic and functional characteristics as well as the viral load in the stem cells obtained following this procedure.

Read the detailed description

Patients and volunteers receive seven daily subcutaneous injections of G-CSF. On days 5 and 6 of drug administration, patients have peripheral blood mononuclear cells harvested by leukapheresis. HIV-positive patients are stratified into three cohorts based on CD4 count and presence of symptoms. If no increase in number of harvested stem cells and no grade 4 bone pain toxicity occur in two of the first three patients in a cohort, then the last three patients in that cohort will receive a dose escalation. Patients are followed for 24 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Filgrastim in people with HIV Infections, run by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at 2 sites in United States.

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 14 inclusion and 22 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 4 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00001071, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 4 Nov 2021.
