About this study

Official title: Immunoablative Protocol for Allogeneic Related and Unrelated Hematopoietic Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplant (HPBSC)

The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effectiveness of transplantation of high doses of peripheral blood stem cells (stem cells are special cells found in the blood and bone marrow that produce new blood cells) after treatment with non-myeloablative chemotherapy (not toxic to the bone marrow). In addition, this study will assess the side effects of the transplant.

Read the detailed description

The standard treatment in many disorders of the bone marrow is high dose chemotherapy and whole-body radiation treatment followed by the stem cell transplant. This type of transplant not only suppresses or kills off the immune system, but is very toxic to the bone marrow. This study uses a chemotherapy regimen that will suppress the patient's immune system; however, it is non-myeloablative (not toxic to the bone marrow). It does not use whole-body radiation treatment. This approach can minimize the short- and long-term effects of transplantation. Other studies have shown that using chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplantation without whole-body radiation can produce similar results as treatment with whole-body radiation.

Patients will be given chemotherapy with Fludarabine and Busulfan prior to the stem cell transplant. This treatment not only destroys diseased cells, but it also kills normal bone marrow cells. Following this experimental treatment, the patient will be given the stem cells through a central venous catheter (tube inserted in a vein). When the healthy stem cells are given to the patient, they will replace the destroyed bone marrow cells and produce new blood cells. The Allogeneic (not one's own) stem cells used in this experimental transplant will be obtained from a related matched donor or from an unrelated matched donor located through the National Marrow Donor Program.

What participants receive

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

  • Immunoablative Hematopoietic PBSC TransplantProcedure or surgery

    Immunoablative conditioning chemotherapy regimen, followed by transplantation of peripheral blood stem cells on Day 0 of the conditioning regimen.

  • Busulfan pharmacokineticsProcedure or surgery

    Pharmacokinetics of once-a-day dosing of intravenous busulfan as a 3-hour infusion

  • Central Nervous System (CNS) prophylaxis radiationRadiation

    • Patients diagnosed with ALL over 1 year of age and without prior CNS disease will receive CNS prophylaxis radiation to the whole brain prior to transplant.
    • Patients diagnosed with ALL with prior CNS disease over the age of 1 year will be treated with prophylaxis radiation to the whole brain and spine prior to transplant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Immunoablative Hematopoietic PBSC Transplant, Busulfan pharmacokinetics and Central Nervous System (CNS) prophylaxis radiation in people with Tumors and Malignant Melanoma, run by Ann & Robert H Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago 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 25 inclusion and 5 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 30 Aug 2019. 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.

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?

Evaluate the morbidity and mortality of matched related and unrelated hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) transplantation at Children's Memorial Hospital using high dose CD34+ HPCs after a reduced intensity conditioning regimen. (time frame: To study end). 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?
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 30 Aug 2019.
