About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of Therapeutic Vaccination by Leukemic Blasts in Vitro Differentiated Dendritic Cells From Patients With Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in Complete Remission

RATIONALE: Vaccines made from dendritic cells may help the body build an effective immune response to kill cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of vaccine therapy and to see how well it works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia in complete remission.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Assess the tolerability of autologous dendritic cell vaccine in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia in complete remission.

Secondary

  • Evaluate the emergence of an immune response.
  • Determine the relapse rate.
  • Assess the occurrence of residual disease.

OUTLINE: Patients receive increasing doses of blastic cells transformed in vitro by autologous dendritic cells (1/3 subcutaneously and 2/3 IV) every 3 weeks for up to 5 doses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing therapeutic autologous dendritic cells in people with Leukemia, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 13 May 2011. 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 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 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.

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?

Adverse events at 6 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 13 May 2011.
