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 18 to 66 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Participants may be eligible if they are between the ages of 18 to 66 years and are undergoing unrelated blood stem cell transplantation for the first time for the treatment of their hematological malignancy. Additional eligibility criteria will be gathered and evaluated by the transplant physician to determine if an individual is eligible to take part.

About this study

Official title: A Phase III Randomized, Multicenter Trial Comparing G-CSF Mobilized Peripheral Blood Stem Cell With Marrow Transplantation From HLA Compatible Unrelated Donors.

This study will compare the outcomes of study participants who have had peripheral blood stem cell transplantation or with those who have had bone marrow transplantation from an unrelated donor for the treatment of serious hematological malignancies.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized, open-label, multicenter, prospective, comparative trial of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilized peripheral blood stem cells verses marrow from unrelated donors for transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies. The study will be comparing two-year survival probabilities between process has many steps after a matched donor is found. The donor also needs to give permission to join this study. Participants will be randomized to either peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) or bone marrow. The kind of transplant the participant receives is random. Neither the participant nor the doctor may choose the type of transplant.

Participants will receive vaccinations for diphtheria, tetanus, hepatitis B and pneumococcus. Blood samples will be drawn as part of a participant's normal care. Blood samples will also be collected to see if infection fighting cells are working. These samples will be collected at 12 weeks, one year and then yearly until three years post transplant. Information will be collected from the participant's medical history. Participants will also have phone interviews conducted and questions will be asked about their physical and emotional health. Participants taking part in this study may be followed for up to 5 years.

What participants receive

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

  • Blood stem cell versus bone marrow transplantProcedure or surgery

    1. Cyclophosphamide and Total Body Irradiation (CY-TBI)-based regimens that include at least 120 mg/kg cyclophosphamide and at least 1200 cGy of fractionated TBI.
    2. Busulfan and cyclophosphamide (BU-CY)-based regimens that include at least 14 mg/kg busulfan orally or 11.2 mg/kg busulfan intravenously (14 x 0.8 correction factor) or a targeted busulfan dosing strategy aimed at a serum concentration greater than 600 ng/mL at steady state and at least 120 mg/kg cyclophosphamide.
    3. Fludarabine and melphalan (Flu-Mel)-based regimens that include a fludarabine dose of least 120 mg per m2 and a melphalan dose of at least 140 mg per m2.
    4. Fludarabine, busulfan, and ATG (Flu-Bu-ATG)-based regimens that include a fludarabine dose of at least 120 mg/m2, at least 8 mg/kg busulfan orally or 250 mg/m2 busulfan intravenously, and at least 40 mg/kg equine ATG or 4 mg/kg rabbit ATG. Institutional standards should be followed for targeting plasma levels.

What is being measured

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

  1. Two-year survival

    The primary objective is to compare two-year survival probabilities between patients in the two study arms using an intent-to-treat analysis

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Two-year survival

    Transplanted patients randomized to the two study arms will be compared for the following endpoints: survival, incidences of neutrophil and platelet engraftment, graft failure, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), chronic GVHD, time off all immunosuppressive therapy, relapse, infections, adverse events, immune reconstitution, and quality of life. Donors in each arm of the study will be compared for time to return to baseline toxicity score, CBC and WBC differential values after donation and quality of life.

    Measured: 2 Years

  2. Neutrophil Engraftment > 500/mcl

    Measured: 2 Years

  3. Primary graft failure

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Platelet engraftment > 20,000 and 50,000/mcl transfusion independent

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Acute GVHD of grades II-IV and III-IV

    Measured: 2 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Blood stem cell versus bone marrow transplant in people with Blood Stem Cell Transplant, run by Mayo Clinic 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?

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 3 Jun 2010. 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 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 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?

Two-year survival (time frame: 2 years). 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 3 Jun 2010.
