About this study

Official title: Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in High Risk Patients With Fanconi Anemia MT2002-02

RATIONALE: A bone marrow or umbilical cord blood transplant may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by chemotherapy. Giving combination chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant may make the transplant more likely to work. This may be an effective treatment for patients with high risk Fanconi's anemia.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well combination chemotherapy works in treating high risk patients who are undergoing a donor stem cell transplant for Fanconi's anemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine whether the incidence of neutrophil engraftment is acceptable in high-risk patients with Fanconi's anemia treated with busulfan, cyclophosphamide, fludarabine, and antithymocyte globulin followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Secondary

  • Determine the tolerability of mycophenolate mofetil in these patients.
  • Determine the incidence of acute and chronic graft-vs-host disease in patients treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the incidence of major infections in patients with a history of major infections treated with this regimen.
  • Determine the incidence of relapse in patients with refractory anemia with excess blasts, refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation, or acute myeloid leukemia treated with this regimen
  • Determine the probability of 1-year survival of patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to donor/recipient HLA type (identical vs other).

  • Cytoreductive combination chemotherapy: Patients receive busulfan intravenously (IV) over 2 hours twice daily on days -7 and -6 and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours and fludarabine IV over 30 minutes once daily on days -5 to -2.
  • Graft failure prophylaxis: Patients receive methylprednisolone IV twice daily on days -5 to 30 and anti-thymocyte globulin IV over 4-6 hours twice daily on days -5 to -1.
  • Graft-vs-host disease prophylaxis: Patients receive cyclosporine IV over 2 hours twice daily on days -3 to 100 (if patient has a matched sibling donor) or days -3 to 180 (if patient has another donor type). Patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil orally or IV twice daily on days -3 to 45.
  • Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT): Patients undergo allogeneic HSCT (using bone marrow or umbilical cord blood) on day 0. Patients receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously beginning on day 1 and continuing until blood counts recover.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for 3 years.

What is being measured

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

    Measured: 1 year

  4. Number of Participants Experiencing Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease

    Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease is a severe short-term complication created by infusion of donor cells into a foreign host.

    Measured: Day 42

  5. Number of Participants Experiencing Relapse

    Patients with leukemia will have this done by BM biopsy and additional special studies such as cytogenetics or flow cytometry as appropriate.

    Measured: 1 Year

  6. Number of Participants Experiencing Overall Survival

    Overall Survival - Number of patients alive at 1 year post transplant

    Measured: 1 Year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing anti-thymocyte globulin, filgrastim and busulfan in people with Fanconi Anemia, 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 9 inclusion and 11 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 2 Dec 2021. 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 23 Mar 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?

Number of Participants Experiencing Graft Failure (time frame: Day 30). 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 2 Dec 2021.
