About this study

Official title: Clinical Phase II Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Treosulfan Based Conditioning Prior to Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukaemia

This is a multicenter, multinational, non-randomized, non-controlled open-label phase II trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of treosulfan in a combination regimen with fludarabine as conditioning therapy prior to allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in patients with AML.

The aim is to demonstrate a clinical benefit compared with historical data on intravenous busulfan (BusulfexTM, BusilvexTM), the only drug so far registered in the indication conditioning before allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy - Evaluation of engraftment. Safety - Evaluation of the incidence of the following CTC grade 3 and 4 adverse events between day -6 and day +28 - hyperbilirubinemia and mucositis / stomatitis - veno-occlusive disease - seizures

    Measured: 3.5 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Efficacy - Evaluation of disease free survival (DFS) - Evaluation of overall survival (OS) - Evaluation of relapse incidence (RI) - Donor chimerism on day +28, +56 and +100. Safety - Evaluation of NRM on days +28 and +100

    Measured: 3.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Treosulfan in people with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia, run by medac GmbH at 1 site in Germany.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 5 Feb 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 Germany. 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 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 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?

Efficacy - Evaluation of engraftment. Safety - Evaluation of the incidence of the following CTC grade 3 and 4 adverse events between day -6 and day +28 - hyperbilirubinemia and mucositis / stomatitis - veno-occlusive disease - seizures (time frame: 3.5 years). 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 NCT01063660, 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 5 Feb 2010.
