About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of Leucovorin in Patients Receiving High Dose Methotrexate, With or Without Voraxaze Treatment

Being tested
glucarpidase, high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin, high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin
Keywords
high dose methotrexate, Voraxaze, leucovorin, delayed elimination, methotrexate toxicity, rescue, renal insufficiency
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • glucarpidase, high-dose methotrexate, leucovorinDrug

    Also called Voraxaze, carboxypeptidase G2, high dose methotrexate, leucovorin

    single intravenous dose

  • high-dose methotrexate, leucovorinDrug

    Also called HDMTX, LV

    standard of care, leucovorin every 6 hours

Study groups in NCT00634504
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
AExperimentalHigh-dose methotrexate, leucovorin, and Voraxaze
Receives: Drug: glucarpidase, high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin
BActive comparatorHigh-dose methotrexate and leucovorin without Voraxaze (glucarpidase)
Receives: Drug: high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Leucovorin

    Geometric mean (6S)-leucovorin area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve from time 0 to the 3-hour time point.

    Measured: 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours post-LV administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing glucarpidase, high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin and high-dose methotrexate, leucovorin in people with Osteosarcoma and Leukemia, run by BTG International Inc. at 25 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 25 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 3 Jul 2014). 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?

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Leucovorin (time frame: 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours post-LV administration). 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 6 Jun 2022.
