Trial summary

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy drugs and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Use Of Peripheral Blood Stem Cells For Allogeneic Transplantation

RATIONALE: Giving chemotherapy drugs and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells. It also helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the effectiveness of donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant in treating patients with hematologic cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the efficacy and safety of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in achieving engraftment in patients with hematologic malignancy.
  • Determine the hematopoietic recovery, incidence of chemoradiotherapeutic toxicity, relapse, graft-versus-host disease, and survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: Patients receive a preparative chemoradiotherapeutic regimen and graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis prior to transplantation. Patients undergo allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on day 0.

Patients are followed every 1-2 weeks for 6 months and at 9, 12, 24, and 36 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 62 patients will be accrued for this study within 4 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Toxicity

    Number of irreversible severe (grade 3) or life-threatening or lethal (grade 4-5) organ toxicities.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Time to engraftment

    Days from infusion of stem cells to recovery of PMN > 500/ul for two consecutive determinations, transfusion independence for platelets (>20,000/ul) and RBCs (Hct > 25%). The bone marrow function is considered durable if reconstitution persists for at least 6 months.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Clinical response

    Number of participants with a partial response (residual though reduced evidence of active disease) and/or complete response (disappearance of all measurable disease, signs, symptoms, and hematologic or biochemical changes related to the disease, for >3 months).

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Survival rate

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Number of participants with Graft-versus-host disease

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Time to treatment failure and relapse

    Time from day 1 of chemoradiotherapy to transplant-related death or disease relapse.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adult Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and Childhood Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis, run by Columbia 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2014. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Poor enrollment). Results are not available in the source record.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Toxicity (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Jun 2014.
