Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 60 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • A diagnosis of CD established by referring physician(s) and confirmed by our review of the clinical presentation, clinical course, endoscopic and imaging findings, and histology of mucosal tissue specimens
  • An adverse prognosis, documented by persistent signs and symptoms of CD that have failed to respond satisfactorily to medical and surgical therapies in the past, including but not limited to systemic immune suppressive drugs and biopharmaceuticals; to be considered as refractory to medical and surgical therapy, there must be clinical, endoscopic, and histologic evidence of active inflammatory Crohn's Disease that has either persisted or recurred despite exhaustive treatment with available pharmaceutical and surgical therapies; exhaustive treatment is defined as prior exposure to the following, without durable improvement:
  • Systemic glucocorticoids at or above a prednisone equivalent of 40 mg/day for at least 2 weeks, or until drug toxicity or intolerance develops
  • Methotrexate (25 mg per week for at least 3 months, or until drug toxicity or intolerance develops) and/or a thiopurine antimetabolite (either 2.5 mg/kg azathioprine or 1.5 mg/kg 6-mercaptopurine in patients homozygous wild-type for the thiopurine-S-methyltransferase [TPMT] gene, or either 1.5 mg/kg azathioprine or 1 mg/kg 6-mercaptopurine in patients heterozygous for TPMT, or doses of these drugs capable of producing a 6-thioguanine nucleotide level of 230-400 without producing a 6-methylmercaptopurine nucleotide level above 5700 for at least 3 months, or until drug allergy, intolerance or toxicity develops); if a patient is homozygous mutant for the TPMT gene, thiopurines would be contraindicated and their use would not be a requirement for enrollment in this protocol
  • Use of at least two anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha therapies, that is, infliximab (at least 5 mg/kg every 8 weeks for at least 3 months, or until drug allergy, toxicity or intolerance or anti-infliximab antibodies develop) and/or adalimumab (at least 40 mg subcutaneously [SQ] every 2 weeks for at least 3 months, or until drug allergy, toxicity or intolerance develops) and/or certolizumab pegol (at least 400 mg SQ every 4 weeks for at least 3 months, or until drug allergy, toxicity or intolerance develops)
  • Due to the serious risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and the reluctance of some patients to agree to therapy that carries such risk, prior exposure to natalizumab is not required to meet the definition of exhaustive pharmaceutical treatment; neither will use of natalizumab among patients who are John Cunningham (JC) virus antibody seronegative be an exclusionary criterion
Show all 16Show fewer
  • Exhaustive surgical treatment will be defined as indicated operations for complications of Crohn's Disease up to the point where the risks of surgery (for example, mortality or post-operative morbidity such as short bowel syndrome or extensive adhesions with high risk for inadvertent enterotomy) are deemed by patients and their physicians to be unacceptably high; indicated operations for complications of Crohn's Disease include, but are not limited to, surgical resection of involved intestine, stricturoplasty, drainage, curettage, or adhesiolysis of tissues affected by Crohn's disease
  • Exposure of patients to investigational drug therapies for Crohn's Disease, that is, to drugs that are not Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for this indication, will not be a criterion for either inclusion or exclusion
  • Endoscopic and histologic evidence of active intestinal inflammation consistent with CD; in the event that the involved mucosa cannot be readily reached by endoscopic biopsy, an imaging test that shows typical changes of CD in the intestinal tract will suffice as evidence of active intestinal inflammation; the presence of intestinal stomas does not exclude the patient from study
  • Severe CD as defined by one of the following:
  • CDAI >= 250
  • Need for total parenteral nutrition to maintain weight
  • Recurrent intestinal inflammation caused by CD following surgical resection
  • Identification of a HLA-matched hematopoietic cell donor without a history of a disorder that can be transmitted by hematopoietic cells, including but not limited to inflammatory bowel disease, and without nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain containing 2 (NOD2) mutations in the case of a HLA matched sibling
  • DONORS will be a HLA-identical sibling or HLA-matched unrelated donor; unrelated donors are required to be matched by high resolution allele level typing for HLA-A, B, C and DRB1 and intermediate resolution Sequence Specific Oligonucleotide Probes (SSOP), identifying alleles in groups of related families historically defined as antigens for DQB1; an unrelated donor is considered matched if patient and donor share HLA-A, B, C alleles with identical sequences at exons 2 and 3, DRB1 alleles with identical sequences at exon 2, and DQB1 results that include the same allele groups
  • DONORS will have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document for bone marrow harvest.

About this study

Official title: Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Patients With Treatment-Refractory Crohn's Disease: A Phase 2 Study

This phase II trial studies how well giving a donor bone marrow transplant (BMT) works in treating patients with refractory Crohn's Disease. We will select patients with severe Crohn's Disease and active inflammation despite the best medical and surgical treatments. These patients must be healthy enough to undergo a transplantation procedure. They cannot have an active infection, and their heart, lungs, kidneys, and liver cannot be failing. The transplant procedure starts with chemotherapy and a small dose of radiation, to weaken a patient's immune system so that it will accept bone marrow cells from another person. After that other person's bone marrow cells are given to the patient, immune suppressive medicines are given to prevent the new cells from being rejected and to stop those cells from damaging the patient. After the new donor cells start to work, blood counts will rise and the new immune system will start to grow. During this time, there is a risk of infection. Antibiotics and anti-viral drugs will be given to prevent infection. When the new donor cells are well-established, immune suppressive medicines are discontinued. We will examine parts of the intestine that were inflamed before the start of the transplant procedure, to be sure the Crohn's Disease has disappeared after the transplant. Patients will be formally evaluated for Crohn's activity at around 100 days after transplant, and yearly after that for 5 years.

Read the detailed description

BACKGROUND:

There is strong evidence for genetic susceptibility to Crohn's Disease (CD), with environmental factors interacting with genetic polymorphisms. Some patients remain refractory to the best available therapies. In patients with intestinal inflammation related to other genetic disorders, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation has led to disappearance of inflammation, for example, in patients with IPEX (immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked) and with a mutation in the Interleukin-10 receptor, characterized by a severe, early onset, fistulating colitis for which transplantation is the only therapy that offers benefit. Eleven patients with typical CD who achieved allogeneic donor chimerism after transplant had resolution of signs and symptoms of CD that was sustained for up to 15 years. These case series suggest that allogeneic transplantation has substantial potential to cure CD.

HYPOTHESIS AND SPECIFIC AIMS:

The hypothesis is: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) can achieve sustained remissions in patients with refractory CD, and can be done safely. The specific aims are: 1) To evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic HCT as treatment for refractory CD. 2) To evaluate treatment effect on CD activity/severity using the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) and the Simple Endoscopic Score for CD (SES-CD). 3) To evaluate safety by scoring regimen-related toxicities, time to engraftment, infectious complications, acute and chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD), and treatment-related mortality. 4) To evaluate the effect on quality of life.

METHODS:

This study is a prospective single-arm Phase II clinical trial that will enroll 12 patients.

PATIENT SELECTION: Patients will have documented CD (see eligibility criteria below); signs and symptoms that have failed to respond satisfactorily to medical and surgical therapies; active intestinal inflammation by endoscopy and histology, and CDAI >= 250 or need for total parenteral nutrition or recurrent inflammation after resection. Donors will be a Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-matched sibling or unrelated donor.

ALLOGENEIC TRANSPLANT PROCEDURE: Patients will receive a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen of cyclophosphamide, fludarabine and low-dose Total Body Irradiation (TBI), a regimen that has been used successfully in patients receiving haploidentical allografts. Marrow will be used as the graft source to reduce the risk of GVHD. GVHD prophylaxis will consist of post-transplant high-dose cyclophosphamide followed by the combination of tacrolimus and enteric coated mycophenolic acid. Supportive care includes the use of N-acetyl cysteine infusions to reduce the risk of sinusoidal liver injury from cyclophosphamide; prophylaxis with ursodiol to prevent cholestatic liver disease; and antimicrobial drugs as prophylaxis and preemptive treatment for infections by bacteria, fungi, herpes viruses, and Pneumocystis jiroveci. Tissue and blood samples will be archived for future studies and evaluation of immune reconstitution at predefined intervals.

EFFICACY AND SAFETY ENDPOINTS: Safety and efficacy will be based on clinical assessments, laboratory testing, and gastrointestinal endoscopy and histology at baseline, at day 100 post-transplant, and yearly for 5 years. The primary endpoint is event-free survival at 1 year, defined as alive and free of active CD by endoscopy and biopsy. Transplant-related mortality is death occurring at any time after start of allogeneic HCT. Disease activity will be evaluated using CDAI. Quality of Life will be measured using the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire.

RISKS AND POTENTIAL BENEFITS: The major risks include regimen-related toxicity, infections, graft rejection, and GVHD. Autologous stem cells will be reserved in case of graft rejection. Recent advances in transplant technique have substantially reduced the mortality risk. Balancing these risks is the potential for allogeneic transplant to effect sustained remissions and cures of CD.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HCT as treatment for refractory CD.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate treatment effect on CD activity and severity.

II. To evaluate safety of allogeneic HCT as determined by regimen-related toxicities, infectious complications, acute and chronic GVHD, treatment-related mortality, overall total mortality, and time to engraftment.

III. To evaluate the effect of allogeneic HCT on quality of life (QOL) in patients with severe refractory CD.

OUTLINE:

CONDITIONING THERAPY: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on days -6 to -2 and cyclophosphamide IV over 1-2 hours on days -6 and -5. Patients undergo 200 cGy of TBI on day -1.

TRANSPLANTATION: Patients undergo allogeneic BMT on day 0.

IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE THERAPY: Patients receive high-dose cyclophosphamide IV over 1-2 hours on days 3-4, tacrolimus IV daily or orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 5-180 with taper to day 365, and mycophenolate acid enteric coated or mycophenolate mofetil PO three times daily (TID) on days 0-35.

After completion of conditioning therapy and infusion of donor bone marrow cells, patients are followed up at 1 month, 3 months, 12 months, and then yearly thereafter for up to 60 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Event-free Survival (EFS)

    Defined as alive and free of active CD. Described graphically using a Kaplan-Meier estimate. Generated with confidence intervals using Greenwood's formula to calculate the standard error. Estimated with exact 90% confidence intervals.

    Measured: At 1 year post-transplant

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Development of Infectious Complications

    The incidence of definite and probable viral, fungal and bacterial infections will be tabulated for each patient.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  2. Disease Activity

    Evaluated using a standardized tool for evaluating CD (CDAI).

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  3. EFS

    Described graphically using a Kaplan-Meier estimate. Generated with confidence intervals using Greenwood's formula to calculate the standard error. Estimated with exact 90% confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to 5 years post-transplant

  4. Incidence and Severity of GVHD

    The grading of acute and chronic GVHD will follow previously published guidelines but will also include capture of symptoms and characterization of alternative causes. The highest level of organ abnormalities, the etiologies contributing to the abnormalities and biopsy results pertaining to GVHD will be identified. Since both GVHD and CD involve the gastrointestinal tract, all diagnostic biopsies of these organs will be reviewed by pathologists experienced in the diagnosis of GVHD and IBD, respectively.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  5. Incidence of Disease-modifying Drugs for CD Initiated Post-transplant

    Includes the administration of any therapy (drugs, biologics, or any other treatments) clearly given as immunomodulatory therapy for underlying CD.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  6. Incidence of Graft Rejection

    Engraftment is defined as achieving > 5% donor peripheral blood CD3 T cell chimerism by day 84 after HCT. Primary graft failure is defined as a donor peripheral blood CD3 T cell chimerism peak of < 5% by Day 84 post-HCT. Secondary graft failure is defined as documented engraftment followed by loss of the graft with donor peripheral blood CD3 T cell chimerism < 5% as demonstrated by a chimerism assay.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  7. Overall Survival

    Characterized by the event rates as functions of all patients enrolled and at risk of the event, with exact confidence intervals.

    Measured: Time of treatment assignment until death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years

  8. Quality of Life Measured Using the Previously Validated Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire

    Measured: Up to 5 years

  9. Regimen-related Toxicity Graded According to the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4

    Characterized by the rates of reportable events as functions of all patients enrolled and at risk of the event, with exact confidence intervals. With the exception of adverse events (AEs) that are universal and expected following conditioning therapy, all reportable AEs will be tabulated for each patient from the time that the subject starts mobilization of hematopoietic cells until day +365 after transplant.

    Measured: Up to 1 year post-BMT

  10. Treatment-related Mortality (TRM)

    A stopping rule will be imposed for TRM occurring within one year of transplant. The study will be stopped if at any point there is moderately strong evidence that the rate of TRM exceeds 10%. Moderately strong evidence will be taken to mean that the lower bound of a one-sided 80% confidence interval for the true rate of TRM is above 10%.

    Measured: Time from BMT to death definitely or probably resulting from treatment, assessed up to 5 years
