About this study

Official title: Trial of Allogeneic BMT for Hematologic Malignancies Using HLA-matched Related or Unrelated Donors With Fludarabine and IV Busulfan as Pre-transplant Conditioning Followed by Post-transplant Immunosuppression With High-dose Cyclophosphamide

The purpose of this research is to find the most effective and least toxic way to prevent GVHD after BMT.

Read the detailed description

A person who has cancer of the blood or lymph glands can be treated by bone marrow transplantation (BMT). BMT has developed over several decades of research on both animal and human subjects as an effective treatment of various malignant and nonmalignant hematologic diseases. Many hematologic malignancies can be successfully treated with a combination of high-dose chemotherapy or chemo-radiotherapy and transplantation of allogeneic bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells (alloBMT)

However, a possible side effect of BMT is graft versus host disease (GVHD). GVHD occurs when cells of the donor's immune system, which are present in the bone marrow, attack the BMT recipient's normal tissue. Prevention of GVHD is important for the success of the bone marrow transplant. This research is being done to find the most effective and least toxic way to prevent GVHD after BMT

What participants receive

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

  • Busulfan, Fludarabine, CytoxanDrug

    Also called BMT, Cyclophosphamide, Allogeneic, Transplantation

    Busulfan once a day for 4 days

    Fludarabine once a day for 4 days

    Bone marrow transplant

    Cytoxan two doses

What is being measured

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

  1. To Determine the Optimal Regimen of Post-graft Immunosuppression With High-dose Cy Following Fludarabine, Busulfan, and Transplantation of Fully HLA-matched Bone Marrow That Leads to an Acceptable Incidence of Grades III/IV Acute GVHD

    Percentage of participants with grade III-IV acute graft versus host disease (GVHD). GVHD is graded on a combination of skin symptoms (rash), gut symptoms (diarrhea), and liver symptoms (using a lab test called bilirubin). Grades range from I to IV, where I is the least severe and IV is the most severe.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Busulfan, Fludarabine, Cytoxan in people with Lymphoma and Multiple Myeloma, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 3 sites 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 14 inclusion and 9 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 16 Feb 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 combined 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.

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 19 Jan 2015). 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?

To Determine the Optimal Regimen of Post-graft Immunosuppression With High-dose Cy Following Fludarabine, Busulfan, and Transplantation of Fully HLA-matched Bone Marrow That Leads to an Acceptable Incidence of Grades III/IV Acute GVHD (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT00809276, 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 16 Feb 2015.
