Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Elderly Patients With Multiple Myeloma
A Phase 3 study testing Thalidomide in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by University Hospital, Lille at 1 site in France.
Trial summary
In multiple myeloma, combination chemotherapy with melphalan plus prednisone has been used since the 1960s and is regarded as the standard of care in elderly patients. We assess whether the addition of thalidomide to this combination or adapted high-dose chemotherapy, using a melphalan 100 mg/m2 -based regimen, would… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Comparison of Melphalan-Prednisone(MP),MP-THALIDOMIDE,and Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in the Treatment of Newly Diagnosed Elderly Patients With Multiple Myeloma.
In multiple myeloma, combination chemotherapy with melphalan plus prednisone has been used since the 1960s and is regarded as the standard of care in elderly patients. We assess whether the addition of thalidomide to this combination or adapted high-dose chemotherapy, using a melphalan 100 mg/m2 -based regimen, would improve survival.
Read the detailed description
Trial design This multicenter, randomized, controlled trial is conducted by the French Myeloma Intergroup(IFM) in elderly patients with previously untreated multiple myeloma. The primary objectives of the study are to compare the efficacy and safety of MP with MP-Thalidomide or with MEL100 (intermediate-dose melphalan 100 mg/m2 - based treatment). The secondary objective is to compare the efficacy of MP-Thalidomide vs MEL100.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Thalidomide in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by University Hospital, Lille at 1 site in France.
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 3 inclusion and 10 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 22 Aug 2006. 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 France. 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?
Overall survival. 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 NCT00367185, 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 22 Aug 2006.
