About this study

Official title: Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) From a Genoidentical Donor After a Reduced Intensity Conditioning Transplantation (RICT) Followed by an Early Preventive Treatment (Day 21) With Extracorporal Photopheresis After Transplantation.

ECP will be given to the patients [UVAR®XTS TM Therakos system, Johnson \& Johnson] according to the following schedule:

Starting at day 21 after transplant, if hematologic recovery allowed it: 2 ECP per week the first 2 weeks, and 1 ECP per week during 1 month.

Total = 8 ECP after transplantation.

What participants receive

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

  • methoxsalenDrug

    Also called UVADEX®

    UVADEX® is supplied in a 10 mL single-use vial. Each mL of solution contains 20 mcg of UVADEX®.

    In the ECP process, UVADEX® will be injected directly into the Recirculation Bag of the extracorporal circuit after completion of the buffy coat collection, just prior to pressing the photoactivation button. The dose of UVADEX used to inoculate these cells will be calculated based on the treatment volume collected during the plasma/buffy coat collection process, usinge the following formula :

    Treatment Volume in mL x 0.017 = Dose of UVADEX® (in mLs) required for administration into the recirculation bag.

    After the cells are inoculated with UVADEX, the buffy coat/plasma suspension is irradiated with ultraviolet-A light and then reinfused back into the patient.

  • Extracoporal Photopheresis (ECP)Procedure or surgery

    Also called ECP kits : UVAR®XTS™

    In the ECP process, UVADEX® will be injected directly into the Recirculation Bag of the extracorporeal circuit after completion of the buffy coat collection, just prior to pressing the photoactivation button.

    After the cells are inoculated with UVADEX, the buffy coat/plasma suspension is irradiated with ultraviolet-A light and then reinfused back into the patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the toxicity at Day 100 (NCI/NIH Common Toxicity Criteria) of Extracorporal Photopheresis (ECP) administered for Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and introduced early (Day 21) after an HSCT from a genoidentical donor.

    All types of toxicity will be assessed and graded according to NCI/NIH Common Toxicity Criteria

    Measured: Day 100

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Efficacy: decrease in incidence of acute GVHD and chronic GVHD

    Measured: during 2 years

  2. Incidence of Infection (clinically et/or bacteriologically proved)

    Measured: during 2 years

  3. Documentation of chimerism [quantification of donor-type chimerism in bone marrow and/ or in peripheral blood (total blood, CD3+)]

    Measured: during 2 years

  4. Transplant-related Mortality

    TRM at 3 months for acute GVHD and at 1 year for chronic GVHD

    Measured: at 3 months and 1 year

  5. Toxicity at Day 180 after HSC transplantation

    Measured: Day 180

  6. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    Measured: at 1 and 2 years

  7. progression-free survival (PFS)

    Measured: at 1 and 2 years

  8. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: at 1 and 2 years

  9. cumulative incidence of relapse

    Measured: at 1 and 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing methoxsalen and Extracoporal Photopheresis (ECP) in people with Hematological Malignancies, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 2 sites in France.

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 13 inclusion and 13 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 24 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mauricette Michallet, Professor (+33472117402, mauricette.michallet@chu-lyon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of the toxicity at Day 100 (NCI/NIH Common Toxicity Criteria) of Extracorporal Photopheresis (ECP) administered for Graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and introduced early (Day 21) after an HSCT from a genoidentical donor. (time frame: Day 100). 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 24 Apr 2013.
