About this study

Official title: Phase II Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Brentuximab Vedotin in Patients With Steroid-Resistant Acute GVHD

The purpose of this research is to test the safety and efficacy of brentuximab vedotin in patients with acute skin graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine whether the complete and partial response rate of steroid-resistant skin GVHD exceeds 25% after administration of brentuximab vedotin.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Evaluate the effect of brentuximab vedotin on the clinical manifestations of acute GVHD of the liver and gastrointestinal tract.

II. Determine the incidence and degree of brentuximab vedotin-related toxicity when administered after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).

III. Evaluate cluster of differentiation (CD)30 expression in skin biopsies before and after administration of brentuximab vedotin.

IV. Enumerate CD30 expressing lymphocytes in the blood and measure the concentration of soluble CD30 in serum before and after administration of brentuximab vedotin.

  1. Determine whether changes in CD30 expression in skin biopsies or blood lymphocytes or the concentration of CD30 in serum before and after administration of brentuximab vedotin are correlated with changes in skin GVHD stage.

VI. Evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK) of brentuximab vedotin in patients after allogeneic HCT.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients receive brentuximab vedotin intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing brentuximab vedotin, laboratory biomarker analysis and pharmacological study in people with Graft Versus Host Disease, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center/University of Washington Cancer Consortium 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 7 inclusion and 16 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jun 2013. 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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Partial and complete response rates of steroid-resistant acute skin GVHD following administration of brentuximab vedotin (time frame: Up to day 28). 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 27 Jun 2013.
