About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of the Immunomodulatory Drug CC-5013 for Patients With AL Amyloidosis

RATIONALE: Drugs such as CC-5013 and dexamethasone may be effective in treating primary systemic amyloidosis.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying CC-5013 to see how well it works with or without dexamethasone in treating patients with primary systemic amyloidosis.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the tolerability of CC-5013 in patients with primary systemic (AL) amyloidosis.
  • Determine the objective hematologic response rate in patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine amyloid organ disease response in patients treated with this drug.

Secondary

  • Determine hematologic and amyloid organ disease response in patients who do not achieve a response to CC-5013 alone and are subsequently treated with CC-5013 and dexamethasone.
  • Determine the toxicity of CC-5013 in combination with dexamethasone in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive oral CC-5013 once daily on days 1-21. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients not achieving a hematologic response continue to receive CC-5013 as before and also receive oral dexamethasone twice daily on days 1-4, 9-12, and 17-20 of every other 28-day course for up to 6 courses of combination therapy. Patients who maintain a hematologic response after 6 courses of combination therapy may receive CC-5013 alone in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients not achieving a hematologic response after the initiation of dexamethasone are removed from the study.

Patients are followed annually.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 15-25 patients will be accrued for this study within 5-12.5 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Patients Removed From Study Treatment Due to Toxicities

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Number of Patients With Hematologic Response With Single-agent CC-5013

    Complete response = Absence of detectable monoclonal protein in serum or urine by immunofixation electrophoresis, less than 5% plasma cells on bone marrow biopsy without clonal dominance of kappa or lambda isotype, and normal serum free light chain assay.

    Partial response= For patients with detectable and quantifiable monoclonal marrow plasmacytosis= a reduction of 50% or more in plasma cells as a percentage of nucleated bone marrow cells. For patients with a detectable monoclonal peak on serum or urine protein electrophoresis= a reduction in the peak height of 50% or more.

    For patients with quantifiable urinary kappa or lambda chain concentration= a 50% reduction in daily light chain excretion in 24 hour urine.

    For patients with an elevated serum free light chain assay, a reduction of 50% or more.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Patients Who Received Both CC-5013 and Dexamethasone and Had a Hematologic Response

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing dexamethasone and lenalidomide in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Vaishali Sanchorawala 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?

The sponsor lists 34 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 20 Feb 2017. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Feb 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Patients Removed From Study Treatment Due to Toxicities (time frame: 1 year). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00091260, 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 20 Feb 2017.
