About this study

The treatment assignment is based on the presence or absence of an HLA-identical sibling donor (Genetic Randomisation, NOT formal Randomisation). Patients with suitable HLA-identical sibling donors are offered a tandem transplant approach consisting of standard autografting nonmyeloablative radiotherapy and allografting. Patients without HLA-identical siblings are treated with standard double autologous transplantation as per Institutional guidelines or enrolled in other treatment programs approved by local IRBs.This is a multi-center study. The Division of Hematology of University of Torino at the S.G.B. Hospital, Torino, Italy, is the co-ordinating Center.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Azienda Ospedaliera San Giovanni Battista at 1 site in Italy.

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 10 inclusion and 9 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jun 2008. 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 Italy. 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 combined 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.

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?

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?

Survival Outcomes. 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 NCT00415987, 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 20 Jun 2008.
