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 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients newly requiring systemic glucocorticoid therapy (at ≥ 1mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) for chronic GVHD
  • Participants can be enrolled and begin study therapy with ofatumumab within 14 days from initiation of 1 mg/kg/day prednisone for therapy of chronic GVHD.

Who cannot join

  • Relapse of primary hematologic malignancy that served as indication for HCT.
  • Previous systemic glucocorticoid therapy (at ≥ 1mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent) for chronic GVHD
  • Prior systemic glucocorticoid therapy for acute GVHD is permitted
  • Prior or ongoing systemic immune suppressive agents (including, but not limited to common examples such as calcineurin inhibitors, sirolimus, mycophenolate mofetil) provided for either prevention or treatment of acute GVHD are permitted and part of routine standard of care
  • Current active hepatic or biliary disease (with exception of liver disease secondary to chronic GVHD, or patients with Gilbert's syndrome, asymptomatic gallstones, or stable chronic liver disease per investigator assessment).
  • Patients with abnormal liver function tests due to chronic GVHD are specifically not excluded from the study. This is a common manifestation of chronic GVHD, and thus a major target for the study therapy.

About this study

Official title: Ofatumumab in Combination With Glucocorticoids for Primary Therapy of Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease

To study the safety and side effects of Ofatumumab in the treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). This study will also evaluate effectiveness of Ofatumumab when added to standard steroid treatment for chronic graft-versus-host disease

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I-II trial to examine the safety and efficacy of prednisone and escalating dose of ofatumumab for the primary therapy of chronic GVHD.

What participants receive

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

  • OfatumumabDrug

    Phase I: test an escalating dose of ofatumumab at cohorts of 300 mg, 700 mg, and 1000 mg given on day 0 and 14 of study.

    Phase II: Ofatumumab MTD on day 0 and 14; patients will be followed for total of 24 months (months 1, 3, 6, 12 after therapy, then at 18 and 24 months following therapy)

Receives: Drug: Ofatumumab

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose of Ofatumumab

    Maximum Tolerated Dose was determined by increasing doses, beginning at 300 mg on day 0 and day 14, then increasing to 700 mg on day 0 and day 14 and finally 1000 mg on day 0 and day 14.

    Measured: within 21 days of initiation

  2. Participants Response Rates

    Overall response rate (ORR) at 6 months following initiation of therapy. ORR is the composite outcome of complete response and partial response

    Measured: 6 months following initiation of Ofatumumab

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Survival (OS) at 24 Months

    Overall Survival is defined as the time period from start of treatment to death.

    Measured: Up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Ofatumumab in people with Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease, run by H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute at 4 sites 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 2 inclusion and 24 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Nov 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose of Ofatumumab (time frame: within 21 days of initiation). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01680965, 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 6 Oct 2022.
