About this study
Official title: Phase II Pilot Evaluation of Infusional 8 Cl-cAMP in the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of tocladesine in treating patients who have recurrent or refractory multiple myeloma.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the safety of 8-chloro-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (8-chloro-cAMP) in patients with recurrent or refractory multiple myeloma. II. Evaluate the efficacy of this regimen in these patients. III. Determine the pharmacokinetics of this regimen in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients receive 8-chloro-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (8-chloro-cAMP) over 120 hours every 2 weeks for up to 4 courses. Beginning with course 5, patients with stable or responsive disease receive 8-chloro-cAMP over 120 hours every 3 weeks until disease progression. Patients are followed every 3 months until death.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 29 patients will be accrued for this study within 12-18 months.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing tocladesine in people with Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, run by Northwestern University at 1 site 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?
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 30 May 2012. 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 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.
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?
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?
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 30 May 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
