About this study

Official title: Co-transplantation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and HLA-mismatched Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cells After Nonmyeloablative Conditioning: a Phase II Randomized Double-blind Study

The present project aims at evaluating the capacity of MSC to improve one-year overall survival of patients transplanted with HLA-mismatched PBSC from related or unrelated donors after non-myeloablative conditioning.

Co-infusion of MSC has been shown to facilitate engraftment of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) in an immunodeficient mouse model. In addition, it has been shown that infusion of third party MSC in HSC transplantation could be successfully used as treatment for grade II-IV steroid-refractory acute graft versus host disease.

One hundred and twenty patients with HLA-mismatched donors will be included over 6 years at multiple centers across Belgium through the transplant committee of the Belgian Hematological Society. The conditioning regimen will consist of fludarabine and 2 Gy TBI, followed by the infusion of donor HSC. Patients will be randomized 1/1 in double-blind fashion to receive or not MSC (1.5-.3.0 x106/kg) from third-party (either haploidentical family members or unrelated volunteer) donors on day 0. Postgrafting immunosuppression will combine tacrolimus and MMF. Except for the collection, expansion and infusion of MSC, the clinical management of the patient will not differ from that of routine NM-HCT.

Mensenchymal Stem CellsExperimentalEfficacy of MSC infusion on one-year overall survival of patients transplanted with HLA-mismatched PBSC. Patients will receive a conditioning regimen consisting in fludarabine (total dose 90 mg/square meter) and 2 Gy total body irradiation. MSC cells (1,5-3,0 x 10E6 MSC/Kg BW) will be injected, followed, at least one hour later, by the infusion of HLA-mismatched PBSC from related or unrelated donor.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Mesenchymal stem cells and Isotonic solution in people with Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute and Leukemia, Lymphoblastic, Acute, run by University of Liege at 10 sites in Belgium.

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 21 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Belgium. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: recruitment too slow). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

One-year overall survival in the 2 arms. (time frame: One year). 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 Sep 2021.
