  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • The patient must, according with investigator criteria, be able to comply with all the protocol requirements
  • The patient or legal representative must sign voluntarily the informed consent before the performance of any study related procedure, not part of usual medical care, with the knowledge that can leave the study the moment he/she wants, without prejudice to later medical care

  • Patient is enrolled in another clinical research study and/or is receiving an investigational agent for any reason
  • Patients with diffuse pulmonary disease and/or pericardial disease
  • Pregnancy or breast-feed women and women of childbearing age that don't accept to use anticonceptive methods since beginning during all the study until 30 days after last cycle treatment.

About this study

Official title: A National, Multicentric, Open-label Study of Induction Treatment With VELCADE and Dexamethasone for Previously Untreated Patients With Multiple Myeloma and Renal Failure

Primary outcome measure:

  • Analyze the efficacy (in order to evaluate the response) of Bortezomib/Dexamethasone treatment
Read more

Secondary outcome measures:

  • Study the speed of response and the response rate (M component in serum and urine protein) after each bortezomib/dexamethasone cycle
  • Compare the efficacy of the bortezomib/dexamethasone therapy against the therapy without bortezomib
  • Reversibility of renal failure
  • Predictive value in the light chain determination for response and reversibility of renal failure
  • Early morbidity (< 2 months)
  • Progression-free survival
  • Overall survival

The safety outcome consists in:

  • Determining the safety and tolerance of VELCADE/Dexamethasone, according to the toxicity criteria of clinical and laboratory events
Read the detailed description

60 patients, 18 years or older, diagnosed with newly symptomatic multiple myeloma (standard diagnosis criteria) and renal failure, previously untreated with chemotherapy, will be included.

It is an multi centric, national and open study designed in order to determine efficacy of the combination of bortezomib and dexamethasone for multiple myeloma patients with renal failure.

The trial consists of two parts: pre-treatment and treatment. Pre- treatment phase: include the enrolment visit in order to determine that the patient is eligible to participate in a study. The patient will be given the Informed Consent Form in order to participate in the study, and detailed information about the treatment, its benefits and risks.

Treatment phase: include the treatment which consist of, at the most, 12 cycles of Velcade and Dexamethasone (induction and extension). During these periods, patients will come to the centre for the study visits to be evaluated, the days they will receive Velcade® of each cycle.

Once the clinical trial has finished, patients will be monitored during short and long-term periods where progression free survival and overall survival will be evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing velcade in people with Multiple Myeloma, run by PETHEMA Foundation at 11 sites in Spain.

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 17 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 17 Sep 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in Spain. 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 (time frame: 2 years). 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 17 Sep 2015.
