Trial summary

Patients with severe, refractory aplastic anemia have a severe, life threatening disease in their bone marrow. Refractory disease means that disease has come back or not responded after receiving one or more immunosuppressive treatments. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Myeloablative Conditioning and Transplantation of HLA-matched, Partially HLA-mismatched, HLA-haploidentical or Matched Unrelated (MUD) Bone Marrow for Patients With Refractory Severe Aplastic Anemia

Patients with severe, refractory aplastic anemia have a severe, life threatening disease in their bone marrow. Refractory disease means that disease has come back or not responded after receiving one or more immunosuppressive treatments. High dose chemotherapy followed by bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has been used to treat blood diseases like aplastic anemia but complications from Graft vs Host disease (GVHD) and graft failure have limited the survival for those patients.

Another study done here at Johns Hopkins has shown that in patients with other diseases (blood cancers) some immunosuppressive drugs given after the BMT has decreased how often patients had complications of GVHD and engraftment failure.

This research is being done to find if this approach will help patients with aplastic anemia who have failed other treatments will have better outcomes.

  • Bone Marrow TransplantProcedure or surgery

    Matched sibling, haploidentical or matched unrelated donor bone marrow transplant following chemotherapy

What is being measured

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

  1. To estimate the overall survival (OS) at 1 year following HLA-matched, Partially HLA-mismatched, HLA-haploidentical or matched unrelated Bone Marrow for Patients with Refractory Severe Aplastic Anemia

    Measured: 1 year

  2. To estimate the event-free survival (EFS) at 1 year following HLA-matched, Partially HLA-mismatched, HLA-haploidentical or matched unrelated Bone Marrow for Patients with Refractory Severe Aplastic Anemia

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bone Marrow Transplant in people with Severe Aplastic Anemia, run by Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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 13 Oct 2016. 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 United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: New revised SAA BMT study opened to take over this study). 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?

To estimate the overall survival (OS) at 1 year following HLA-matched, Partially HLA-mismatched, HLA-haploidentical or matched unrelated Bone Marrow for Patients with Refractory Severe Aplastic Anemia (time frame: 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 Oct 2016.
