Being tested
Human Stem Cell Transplantation, Consolidation chemotherapy, i.e. High-dose Cytarabine (HiDAC)

What participants receive

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

  • Human Stem Cell TransplantationBiological

    Human allogenic stem cells

  • Consolidation chemotherapy, i.e. High-dose Cytarabine (HiDAC)Drug

    Consolidation chemotherapy, recommended regimen: HiDAC = 3 x 2g/sqm BID on days 1,3,5

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent of Patients alive after 4 years (Overall Survival)

    The status of each patient alive/not alive is surveyed every 3 months in year 1+2 and every 6 months in year 3+4 after randomisation.

    Measured: 4 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Disease-free survival

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Cumulative incidence of relapse

    Measured: 4 years

  3. Cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality

    Measured: 4 years

  4. Quality of life assessed by questionnaires

    Scores assessed by validated questionnaires (8 subscales: physical function, role physical, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, role emotional, mental health)

    Measured: 4 years

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted23 Nov 2010 (estimated)
  2. Study start10 Feb 2011
  3. Primary completion30 Apr 2020
  4. Study completion30 Apr 2020

Why it stopped: decreased recrucial rate as the likelihood of achieving the envisioned patient number in a realistic time-frame was very low.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Human Stem Cell Transplantation and Consolidation chemotherapy, i.e. High-dose Cytarabine (HiDAC) in people with Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute, run by University Hospital Carl Gustav Carus at 19 sites 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 29 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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: decreased recrucial rate as the likelihood of achieving the envisioned patient number in a realistic time-frame was very low.). 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?

Percent of Patients alive after 4 years (Overall Survival) (time frame: 4 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 NCT01246752, 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 29 Oct 2021.
