Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Randomised Phase II Clinical Trial Using Targeted Radiotherapy Delivered by an Yttrium-90 Radio-Labelled Anti-CD66 Monoclonal Antibody With High Dose Melphalan Compared to Melphalan Alone, Prior to Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Multiple Myeloma

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. A stem cell transplant using stem cells from the patient may be able to replace blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy and radiolabeled monoclonal antibody.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well high-dose melphalan works when given with or without radiolabeled monoclonal antibody in treating patients with multiple myeloma undergoing an autologous stem cell transplant.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To determine the efficacy of high-dose melphalan (200mg/m²) in combination with targeted radiotherapy delivered by yttrium Y 90 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183, in terms of disease response (complete remission rate and change in serum free light chain level before and after treatment with yttrium Y 90 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183), in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma.

Secondary

  • To determine the toxicity profile of yttrium Y 90 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183 in the context of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • To determine the effect of targeted radiotherapy on other parameters of disease response, in terms of proportion of patients with partial remission, stable disease, and progressive disease, remission duration (time to disease progression), and overall survival.
  • To determine the effect of targeted radiotherapy on engraftment when used in combination with high-dose melphalan in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma.
  • To investigate the pharmacokinetic behavior of indium In 111 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183 (used for dosimetry).
  • To continue to develop a dosimetry model based on single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and whole body gamma camera imaging following administration of the radiolabeled anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody (in a subset of patients at the Southampton site only).
  • To assess the proportion of patients who form human anti-murine antibodies (HAMA) after treatment with targeted radiotherapy in the context of an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to disease risk group (low risk [beta-2 microglobulin and C-reactive protein < 6 or either beta-2 microglobulin or C-reactive protein ≥ 6] vs high risk [both beta-2 microglobulin and C-reactive protein ≥ 6]). Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive a dosimetry dose of indium In 111 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183 IV on day 1 and undergo gamma camera imaging and serial blood samples on days 1-5. Patients then receive a therapeutic dose of yttrium Y 90 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW250/183 IV once between days 9 and 16 and high-dose melphalan IV on day 28. Patients then undergo autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) on day 30.
  • Arm II: Patients receive high-dose melphalan IV on day 1. Patients then undergo autologous HSCT on day 3.

Patients in arm I undergo blood sample collection periodically for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies and analysis of human anti-murine antibody (HAMA) status.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing melphalan, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and yttrium Y 90 anti-CD66 monoclonal antibody BW 250/183 in people with Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm, run by University of Southampton at 3 sites in United Kingdom.

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United Kingdom. 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: Low recruitment). 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?

Remission status pre- and post-transplantation, specifically the number of patients who achieve complete remission, as measured by the European Blood and Marrow Transplantation Organization Response Criteria (time frame: end of study). 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 23 Dec 2020.
