Efficacy and Safety Study of CC-5013 Monotherapy in Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes
A Phase 2 study testing CC-5013 in people with Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by Celgene Corporation at 119 sites in 15 countries.
Trial summary
This study is a multi-center, single-arm, open-label study of oral CC-5013 monotherapy administered at a dose of 10 mg daily on Days 1-21 every 28 days (28-day cycles) to red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-dependent subjects with low- or intermediate-1-risk MDS who do not have a del (5q31-33) cytogenetic abnormality.

About this study
Official title: A Multicenter, Single-Arm, Open-Label Study of the Efficacy and Safety of CC-5013 Monotherapy in Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes
This study is a multi-center, single-arm, open-label study of oral CC-5013 monotherapy administered at a dose of 10 mg daily on Days 1-21 every 28 days (28-day cycles) to red blood cell (RBC) transfusion-dependent subjects with low- or intermediate-1-risk MDS who do not have a del (5q31-33) cytogenetic abnormality. Screening procedures will take place within 28 days of first day of study drug treatment. Subjects will receive study drug (CC-5013) in 28-day cycles for up to 6 cycles, or until bone marrow disease progression or progression/relapse following erythroid hematologic improvement (Appendix I) is documented. Study visits will occur every cycle (every 28 days) and laboratory monitoring to assess hematological parameters will occur every 14 days. Safety and efficacy assessments to be performed during the study are outlined in the Schedule of Study Assessments.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing CC-5013 in people with Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by Celgene Corporation at 119 sites in 15 countries.
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 9 inclusion and 17 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 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 119 sites in United States, France, United Kingdom, Australia, Italy and 10 more countries. 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.
What does the primary outcome measure?
RBC Transfusion Independence. 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 NCT00064974, 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 4 Apr 2013.
