Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with adrenoleukodystrophy, metachromatic leukodystrophy, globoid cell leukodystrophy, Gaucher's disease, Fucosidosis, Wolman disease, Niemann-Pick disease and Batten disease (CLN3) who have a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical or haplotype mismatched (at 1-3 antigens) related marrow, or umbilical cord blood donor.

About this study

Official title: Treatment of Lysosomal and Peroxisomal Inborn Errors of Metabolism by Bone Marrow Transplantation

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and engraftment of donor hematopoietic cells using this conditioning regimen in patients undergoing a hematopoietic (blood forming) cell transplant for an inherited metabolic storage disease.

Read the detailed description

Prior to transplantation, subjects will receive Busulfan intravenously (IV) via the Hickman line four times daily for 4 days, Cyclophosphamide intravenously via the Hickman line once a day for 4 days, and Anti-Thymocyte Globulin (ATG) intravenously (IV) via the Hickman line twice daily for three days before the transplant. These three drugs are being given to subjects to help the new marrow "take" and grow.

On the day of transplantation, the donor's hematopoietic cells will be transfused via central venous catheter.

After hematopoietic cell transplant, subjects will then receive two drugs, cyclosporin and either methylprednisolone or Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF). Cyclosporin and methylprednisolone or MMF are given to help prevent the complication of graft-versus-host disease and to decrease the chance that the new donor cells will be rejected.

What participants receive

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

  • Stem Cell TransplantProcedure or surgery

    Also called Bone marrow transplant

    The purpose of hematopoietic cell transplantation is to introduce hematopoietic cells from a normal donor that contains an enzyme able to get rid of the substances that have accumulated in the body of patients with storage diseases. Hematopoietic cells can come from bone marrow, peripheral blood (i.e., the blood circulating in our body's blood vessels) or umbilical cord blood (i.e., blood taken from the umbilical cord after a baby is born and umbilical cord is cut).

  • Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide, Antithymocyte GlobulinDrug

    Also called Busulfex, Cytoxan, ATG

    Subjects will receive BUSULFAN intravenously (IV)- patients < or= 12 kg 1.1 mg/kd/dose IV every 6 hours for 16 doses; patients > 12kg 0.8 mg/kg/dose IV every 6 hours for 16 doses - via the Hickman line four times daily for 4 days, CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE intravenously (50 mg/kg/day IV over 2 hours) via the Hickman line once a day for 4 days, and ANTI-THYMOCYTE GLOBULIN IV (15 mg/kg/day over 2 hours) via the Hickman line twice daily for three days before the transplant. These three drugs are being given to help the new marrow "take" and grow. METHYLPREDNISOLONE will be given as a pre-medication for the ATG.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival

    Number of patients alive at designated timepoints after transplant.

    Measured: 100 Days, 1 Year and 3 Years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Donor Engraftment

    Number of patients with full donor chimerism (state in bone marrow transplantation in which bone marrow and host cells exist compatibly without signs of graft-versus-host rejection disease) by Day 100 post-transplant of at least 90%.

    Measured: Day 100

  2. Number of Patients With Grade II-IV Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    Number of patients who exhibited acute graft-versus-host disease by Day 100 post transplant. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant in which the newly transplanted material attacks the transplant recipient's body. Grade I=mild, Grade II=moderate, Grade III=severe, Grade IV=life threatening.

    Measured: Day 100

  3. Number of Patients With Grade III-IV Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    Number of patients who exhibited acute graft-versus-host disease by Day 100 post transplant. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant in which the newly transplanted material attacks the transplant recipient's body. Grade I=mild, Grade II=moderate, Grade III=severe, Grade IV=life threatening.

    Measured: Day 100

  4. Number of Patients With Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    Number of patients who exhibited chronic graft-versus-host disease by 1 Year post transplant. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a complication that can occur after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant in which the newly transplanted material attacks the transplant recipient's body. Chronic GVHD is an extension of this syndrome.

    Measured: 1 Year Post Transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Stem Cell Transplant and Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide, Antithymocyte Globulin in people with Adrenoleukodystrophy and Metachromatic Leukodystrophy, run by Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota 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 14 inclusion and 7 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 28 Dec 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 combined 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jun 2011). 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?

Overall Survival (time frame: 100 Days, 1 Year and 3 Years). 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 NCT00176904, 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 28 Dec 2017.
