About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase 3 Trial for Patients With AML in CR2 Comparing Total Body Irradiation (TBI) With 8Gy/Fludarabine to Conditioning With TBI 12Gy/Cyclophosphamide

For patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is one of the most potent treatment options currently available. In order to overcome the high risk of fatal treatment-related complications, reduced intensity and nonmyeloablative conditioning regimens for allogeneic HSCT are currently being explored in various hematological malignancies including AML. At least for allogeneic HSCT in AML, the optimal dose-intensity of preparative regimens for disease control at an acceptable rate of treatment-related lethal complications has not been determined. The investigators, therefore, evaluated reduced intensity myeloablative conditioning with 8 Gy TBI and fludarabine in AML patients considered ineligible for conventional conditioning in a phase 2 trial (data published in BLOOD by Stelljes et al., 2005). The results suggest that with 8 Gy TBI/fludarabine, conditioning related and unrelated donor transplants can be performed in AML patients in first or second complete remission (CR) with a remarkably low 2-year non relapse mortality (NRM) and satisfactory disease control. Based on these data a randomized phase 3 trial for patients with AML in CR≥2 is currently being conducted by the Cooperative German Transplant Study Group comparing TBI 8 Gy/fludarabine to conventionally dosed conditioning with TBI 12 Gy/cyclophosphamide.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing conditioning for allogeneic HSCT in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by University Hospital Muenster at 1 site in Germany.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 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 Germany. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 was stopped early (reason given: insufficient patient recruitement). 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?

treatment related mortality. 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 18 Dec 2012.
