About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Open-Label, Single-Arm, Pilot Study of Safety and Efficacy of CC-4047 (Pomalidomide) in Patients With Advanced Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease Developing After Allogeneic Hematological Stem Cell Transplantation

This study will test the safety and effectiveness CC-4047 (pomalidomide) in patients with advanced, steroid refractory graft-versus-host disease.

Read the detailed description

Chronic Graft vs. Host Disease is a major complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation developing in 30 - 70% of patients. It is a multisystem alloimmune and autoimmune disorder with a negative impact on quality of life and functional status, increased need for extended immunosuppression and is the leading cause of late transplant related mortality.

CC-4047 is a novel immune modulatory drug that is a thalidomide analog with a 4,000 fold greater inhibition of TNF-α production related to thalidomide. Several features of CC-4047 suggest that this drug may be useful in treating chronic GVHD including in vitro suppression of TNF-α production, increasing Th1 and stimulation of IL-12 and sIL-Rα.

This study is an open-label, single-arm, pilot study of efficacy and safety of CC-4047 in patients with advanced chronic GvHD who failed to achieve a response with high-dose corticosteroids or second line systemic immunosuppressive therapy.

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

    Also called Pomalidomide

Study groups in NCT00770757
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CC-4047 ArmExperimentalCC-4047 2 mg orally every day for 1 course (12 weeks or 84 days). Every 28 days of treatment are considered as 1 cycle and every 3 cycles are are considered as 1 course of treatment. A total of 4 courses of treatment are planned (12 months).
Receives: Drug: CC-4047

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response (Complete Response + Partial Response + Other)

    • CR is defined as complete resolution in all of signs and symptoms at all affected organs and tissues
    • PR is defined as improvement in greater than or equal to 1 organ/tissue with no progression in any other affected organ/tissue
    • Improvement in chronic GvHD symptoms less than what meets the definition of a PR is defined as other
    • Progressive disease is defined as failure of therapy to control chronic GvHD despite increasing the dose of primary therapy or adding second line treatments
    • No response is defined as no change in disease.

    Measured: 1 year after last dose of CC-4047

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety as Measured by the Most Common Adverse Effects and Reasons for Dose Reductions or Study-discontinuation

    -Toxicities will be graded according to the NCI CTCAE v3.0.

    Measured: 30 days after last dose of CC-4047 or until resolution of event

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CC-4047 in people with Graft vs Host Disease, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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 0 inclusion and 21 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 25 Feb 2016. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 Feb 2016). 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?

Overall Response (Complete Response + Partial Response + Other) (time frame: 1 year after last dose of CC-4047). 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 25 Feb 2016.
