AFR10 - Combination Therapy of Imatinib Mesylate (IM) + Alpha-2A Interferon for Chronic Phase CML Patients Resistant or Refractory to IM Used as Single Therapy for at Least One Year

A Phase 2 study testing Imatinib mesylate 600mg/day and Peg-Interféron at 90 microg/week in people with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

Trial summary

Sixty % of CML patients treated by Imatinib mesylate achieved a major cytogenetic responses (CCR) at 18 months. So, 40% of the patients must receive additional treatment. In vitro, it has been shown that IM and Interféron-alpha have synergic anti-proliferative effect on chromosome Ph+ cell lines. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Tolerance of Combination Therapy of Imatinib Mesylate (IM) +-2A Interféron for Chronic Phase CML Patients Resistant or Refractory to IM Used as Single Therapy for at Least One Year

Sixty % of CML patients treated by Imatinib mesylate achieved a major cytogenetic responses (CCR) at 18 months. So, 40% of the patients must receive additional treatment. In vitro, it has been shown that IM and Interféron-alpha have synergic anti-proliferative effect on chromosome Ph+ cell lines. By using Peg-Interféron and IM combination, we hope to increase the cytogenetic response of patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Imatinib mesylate 600mg/dayDrug

  • Peg-Interféron at 90 microg/weekDrug

What is being measured

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

  1. Study the maintenance of a complete hematologic response, the cytogenetic and molecular responses, and the overall survival of the patients population

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate the tolerance of a combination of STI571 and alpha-interferon

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Imatinib mesylate 600mg/day and Peg-Interféron at 90 microg/week in people with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

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 10 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Apr 2007. 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 France. 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?

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?

Study the maintenance of a complete hematologic response, the cytogenetic and molecular responses, and the overall survival of the patients population. 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 27 Apr 2007.
