About this study

Official title: Multicenter Phase II Study of Non-Myeloablative Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation Using Matched Unrelated Donor for Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor will have for patients with kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body (metastasized).

Read the detailed description

Standard treatment for kidney cancer that has spread to other parts of the body may include immunotherapy (a therapy that uses the body's natural immune system to fight cancer) and cytokines (proteins found in the body). If these treatments are not successful at controlling the cancer then chemotherapy or thalidomide are used. Chemotherapy and thalidomide will not cure kidney cancer but they may control the disease in some patients.

In some patients, transplants are now proposed for study. Stem cells (from bone marrow or the bloodstream) are normally used to treat cancers of the blood, not kidney cancer. Since researchers are still learning about using stem cell transplants for kidney cancer, the study is considered a research study. Patients participating in this study will receive smaller doses of chemotherapy drugs to prepare them for the transplant than patients who have a standard transplant. This type of transplant is called a "reduced intensity" transplant. A reduced intensity transplant uses the cell-killing activity of the transplanted donor stem cells to attack the recipient's cancer cells. This is called graft-versus-tumor-effect (GVT). Previous studies have shown that GVT may be greater if the donor is not related to the recipient.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the best rate of tumor response of complete response (CR) + complete unconfirmed response (CRU) + partial response (PR) within 6 months after matched unrelated donor (MUD) nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST)

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall survival after MUD NST

    Measured: Two years

  2. Rate of complete donor myeloid and lymphoid chimerism after MUD NST

    Measured: One year

  3. Incidence and severity of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after MUD NST

    Measured: Two years

  4. Incidence of treatment-related mortality (TRM)

    Measured: 100 Days

  5. Assess cytotoxic T-lymphocyte reactivity

    Measured: One year

  6. Assess antibody activity against potential tumor antigenic peptides in graft-versus-renal cell carcinoma (RCC) effect

    Measured: Six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing NST using MUD for metastatic renal cell carcinoma in people with Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research at 5 sites 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 5 inclusion and 3 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Unable to meet subject enrollment goal.). 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?

Determine the best rate of tumor response of complete response (CR) + complete unconfirmed response (CRU) + partial response (PR) within 6 months after matched unrelated donor (MUD) nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST) (time frame: 6 months). 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 26 Jul 2016.
