About this study

Official title: Clinical Study of GD-2008 ALL Protocol for Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Guangdong Province

The Guangdong work group of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy was set up in October 2002. The investigators treated the childhood ALL with a GZ2002 protocol since the year 2002, and the protocol was mainly derived from the ALLIC-BFM 2002 protocol. After summarizing the last six years' experience, our group revised the GZ2002 ALL protocol in the year 2008, which is named GD-2008 ALL protocol. The diagnosis and classified criteria is according to the ALLIC-BFM 2002 protocol, and the chemotherapy protocol consists all the therapeutic phases as the ALLIC-BFM 2002 protocol prescribed.

Read the detailed description

The modification includes:

  1. In the induction phase, the agent of dexamethasone 6 mg/m2 is used instead of prednisone after prednisone prophase.
  2. The phase "CAM" is 2 weeks for SR patients and 4 weeks for IR and HR patients,respectively.
  3. Both the SR and IR treatments involve the protocol mM /M (8 weeks) in the phase of consolidation. However, the folinic acid rescue starts at 36 hours instead of 42 hours. The type of HR enters the block treatment the same with the BFM protocol.
  4. There is not randomized study in delayed intensification. The GD-2008 ALL protocol uses the same protocol II with the BFM study.
  5. The randomized study focus on the phase of maintenance. The maintenance A is the same with the BFM protocol, while the maintenance B consists of 6mp/MTX and VCR/ dexamethasone. The cycle is 8 weeks: VCR at d1, Dexamethasone at d2 to d7, 6mp from d8 to d56, and MTX at d9,d16, d23, d30, d37,d44,d51.
  6. The GD-2008 ALL protocol for HR patients use the re-blocks and protocol II phases.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing 6-mercaptopurine, Methotrexate and 6-mercaptopurine, Methotrexate, Vincristine, Dexamethasone in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 19 inclusion and 5 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 8 Mar 2010. 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 China. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Shaoliang Huang, M.D. (+8620-81332003, luhong.xu@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The improvement of safety in the treatment protocol (time frame: Two months). 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 8 Mar 2010.
