Trial summary

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a disease of the elderly, with a median age at diagnosis of 65. A poor outcome in this population has been well established, with very short overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS).There are numerous bad prognostic factors related to the disease itself or to the patient's… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Randomized Study Comparing the Interest of a Program of Evaluation and Geriatric Intervention on the Functional Status, Quality of the Life, and Survival of Elderly Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukaemia. MLSP/IPC 2009-003

Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a disease of the elderly, with a median age at diagnosis of 65. A poor outcome in this population has been well established, with very short overall survival (OS) and disease free survival (DFS).There are numerous bad prognostic factors related to the disease itself or to the patient's medical condition.

This study will evaluate the impact of a Comprehensive Geriatric assessment (CGA) performed at diagnosis with planned interventions according to disabilities and monthly follow-up by a nurse practitioner during 6 months on functional status of older cancer patients treated for Acute myeloid leukaemia. Functional status will be assessed with the Lawson Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) scale at diagnosis and 6 months after randomisation.

What participants receive

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

  • WITH Comprehensive Geriatric assessmentBehavioural

    Each month after randomization, a nurse practitioner will systematically review the intervention plan.

    In case of hospitalisation, the nurse will go and meet the patient and his care giver to check each point of the intervention plan. If an action has not been done, a new proposal will be made to the patient. If the patient is at home or in institution, the nurse practitioner will call the patient and /or his care giver for the same purpose

What is being measured

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

  1. functional status

    The functional status is evaluated with KATZ INDEX : BASIC ACTIVITIES OF DAILY LIVING (ADL) and Older American Resources and Services, Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) mesured at diagnosis and 6 month after inclusion.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. nutritional status

    mesured by the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form (mini MNA-SF)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. quality of life

    estimated by a Quality of Life Questionnaire including 30 items (QLQ-C30)

    Measured: 6 months

  3. survival

    overall survival

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing WITH Comprehensive Geriatric assessment and Conventional in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Institut Paoli-Calmettes at 2 sites in France.

What does the primary outcome measure?

functional status (time frame: 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.
