About this study

Official title: Dose-Reduced Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation as Induction of a Graft-Versus-Myeloma-Effect After Autologous High-Dose Chemotherapy in Patients With Multiple Myeloma Stage II/III

To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of a autologous stem cell transplantation followed by a Melphalan/ Fludarabine based dose-reduced allograft from HLA-identical and HLA-compatible unrelated donor in patients with Multiple Myeloma. In those with non complete remission DLI and/ or new agents such as Bortezomib, Thalidomid or Lenalidomide can be used to upgrade remission.

What participants receive

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

  • allogeneic hematopoietic SCTProcedure or surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and efficacy of a conditioning regimen with Fludarabine, Melphalan and ATG prior allogeneic SCT after high dose chemotheraoie and autologous SCT. Evaluation of underlying disease and donor-recipient-chimerism.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Evaluation of engraftment of leucocytes and platelets

  2. Evaluation of incidence of acute and chronic GvHD

  3. Evaluation of infectious complications

  4. Evaluation of the effects of DLI in case of no CR

  5. Evaluation of disease-free and overall survival

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing allogeneic hematopoietic SCT in people with Multiple Myeloma and Stem Cell Transplantation, run by Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf.

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 8 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 28 May 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Safety and efficacy of a conditioning regimen with Fludarabine, Melphalan and ATG prior allogeneic SCT after high dose chemotheraoie and autologous SCT. Evaluation of underlying disease and donor-recipient-chimerism.. 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 NCT00781170, 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 28 May 2009.
