About this study

Official title: Ensayo Fase II de Trasplante autólogo de Sangre periférica en Pacientes Con Mieloma múltiple Tras Acondicionamiento Con Busulfan Intravenoso y Melfalan

Analyze the results of ASCT using intravenous Busulfan and Melphalan as conditioning regimen for patients with Multiple Myeloma.

Read the detailed description

Primary Efficacy and safety of the procedure in terms of number of remissions, survival, event-free survival, relapse risk, and early transplant-related mortality (up to day +100).

Secondary Graft kinetics (time to neutrophil and platelet recovery after ASCT) 2.Analyze the presence of transplant-related complications (infections, sinusoidal occlusive syndrome and others) 3.Analyze prognostic factors for engraftment, remission rate, relapse risk, disease-free and overall survival after ASCT

What participants receive

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

  • Intravenous busulfan and melphalanDrug

    BU is administered intravenously at a dose of 3.2 mg/kg over three hours once a day on days -5 to -3 (total dose 9.6 mg/kg), followed by MEL at a dose of 140 mg/m2 on day -2. After one day of rest, progenitor cells are infused on day 0.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the safety profile and determine the overall response rate after ASCT with this conditioning regimen.

    Measured: Within the first three months after transplant

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluate the complete response (CR) rate, the duration of the response, time to progression, event-free and overall survival

    Measured: Up to 5 years after transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intravenous busulfan and melphalan in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by Fundacion Para La Investigacion Hospital La Fe at 6 sites in Spain.

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 5 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Javier de la Rubia, MD (34963862746, delarubia_jav@gva.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary objective of this study is to analyze the safety profile and determine the overall response rate after ASCT with this conditioning regimen. (time frame: Within the first three months after 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 NCT00804947, 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.
