About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Reduced Intensity Conditioning in Pediatric Patients <21 Years of Age With Non-Malignant Disorders Undergoing Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation

The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of attaining acceptable rates of donor cell engraftment (>25% donor chimerism at 180 days) following reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in pediatric patients < 21 years receiving cord blood transplantation for non-malignant disorders.

Read the detailed description

Myeloablative doses of chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy are employed with the primary purpose of eradicating malignant cells. Additionally, these regimens exert varying degree of immunosuppression/immunoablation that aids in reducing the likelihood of rejection by host hematopoietic cells. However, myeloablative /immunoablative regimens have also been associated with significant regimen related toxicity (RRT) and regimen related mortality (RRM) that may cause death in up to 20% of patients and significantly higher rate of severe organ dysfunction or failure. While most of these RRT occur typically in the first 100 days [ e.g. VOD (veno occlusive disease), pulmonary or intracranial hemorrhage, multiorgan failure (MOF)], there are significant long term toxicities of TBI and/or chemotherapy including growth impairment, gonadal dysfunction/failure, hypothyroidism, cataracts, neurocognitive impairment, and second malignancies.

The primary objective is to determine the feasibility of attaining acceptable rates of donor cell engraftment (>25% donor chimerism at 180 days) following reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in pediatric patients < 21 years receiving cord blood transplantation for non-malignant disorders.

The secondary objectives are:

  • To describe the pace of neutrophil and platelet recovery
  • To evaluate the pace of immune reconstitution.
  • To determine the treatment related mortality, overall survival and disease free survival by days 100 and 180 post-transplant
  • To describe incidence of acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) (II - IV) and chronic extensive GVHD
  • To describe the incidence of grade 3-4 organ toxicity
  • To evaluate long-term complications, such as sterility, endocrinopathy, and growth failure
  • To evaluate the incidence of late graft failures at 2 years post-transplant

What is being measured

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

  1. Determine the Feasibility of Attaining Acceptable Rates of Donor Cell Engraftment (>25% Donor Cells at 180 Days) Following RIC Regimens in Children < 21 Years Receiving UCBT for Non-malignant Disorders.

    Determine the feasibility of attaining acceptable rates of donor cell engraftment (>25% donor cells at 180 days) following reduced intensity conditioning regimens in children < 21 years receiving cord blood transplant for non-malignant disorders.

    Measured: 180 days post transplant

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. To Describe the Pace of Neutrophil Recovery

    Neutrophil recovery was defined as the first day of an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) more than 500/uL for 3 consecutive days not secondary to granulocyte infusions

    Measured: 42 days post transplant

  2. To Evaluate the Pace of Immune Reconstitution.

    Immune reconstitution after RIC in UCBT was described. CD4 count is a standard measure of immune reconstitution and is described here. Additional data is available upon request.

    Measured: 1 year post transplant

  3. To Determine the Overall Survival at day180 Post-transplant

    To determine the overall survival at day180 post-transplant: determined by Kaplan Meier survival analysis

    Measured: 180 days

  4. To Describe Incidence of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) (II - IV)

    To describe incidence of acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) (II - IV) : measured by cumulative incidence analysis

    Measured: 100 days post transplant

  5. To Describe the Incidence of Grade 3-4 Organ Toxicity

    Measured: 2 years post transplant

  6. To Evaluate Long-term Complications, Such as Sterility, Endocrinopathy, and Growth Failure

    Measured: at least 2 years post transplant

  7. To Evaluate the Incidence of Late Graft Failures at 2 Years Post-transplant

    Measured: 2 years post transplant

  8. To Describe the Pace of Platelet Recovery

    Platelet engraftment was defined as the first day of platelet counts more than 50,000/uL for 7 consecutive days without transfusions

    Measured: 180 days post transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Unrelated Umbilical Cord Blood Transplant and Reduced Intensity Conditioning in people with Non Malignant Disorders and Immunodeficiencies, run by Duke University at 1 site 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 10 inclusion and 11 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 13 Aug 2014. 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 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 13 Aug 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?

Determine the Feasibility of Attaining Acceptable Rates of Donor Cell Engraftment (>25% Donor Cells at 180 Days) Following RIC Regimens in Children < 21 Years Receiving UCBT for Non-malignant Disorders. (time frame: 180 days post transplant). 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 NCT00744692, 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 13 Aug 2014.
