About this study

Official title: Randomized Phase III Study Comparing Conventional Chemotherapy to Low Dose Total Body Irradiation-Based Conditioning and HCT From Related and Unrelated Donors as Consolidation Therapy for Older Patients With AML in 1st Complete Remission

A study comparing conventional chemotherapy to low dose total body irradiation-based conditioning and hematopoietic cell transplantation from related and unrelated donors as consolidation therapy for older Patients with AML in first Complete Remission.

Read the detailed description

The majority of patients with acute myelogenous leukaemia (AML) enter complete remission following induction therapy, but relapse despite consolidation and maintenance therapy. In response, post-remission treatment has been progressively intensified and results improved either by high-dose post-remission therapy with autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) or by allogeneic HCT, which has the highest curative potential for patients with AML. Given the toxicity of dose intensification and of allogeneic HCT, however, only younger patients profit from this treatment approach

What participants receive

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

  • hematopoietic cell transplantationProcedure or surgery

    low dose total body irradiation-based conditioning and hematopoietic cell transplantation from related and unrelated donors

  • Non-Transplant treatment approach for consolidationDrug

    Patients will receive the treatment that would be otherwise applied at the local institution. The consolidation or maintenance therapy is according to the study group protocol.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To evaluate overall survival, relapse, Treatment Related Mortality (TRM) and complications after HCT

    Measured: 5 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing hematopoietic cell transplantation and Non-Transplant treatment approach for consolidation in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation at 48 sites in 7 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 48 sites in Germany, France, Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria and 2 more countries. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Recommendation of DMC). 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?

To evaluate Leukaemia Free Survival (LFS) after allo HCT in AML/RAEB in complete remission using matched or unrelated donors in comparison to conventional chemotherapy (time frame: 5 years). 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 14 Oct 2021.
