Official title: Phase I-II Study of Association of Deferasirox, Vitamin D and Azacytidine as Treatment of High Risk MDS (IPSS Int-2 and High)

The dose of Deferasirox will be assigned according to the ferritin level. Dose escalation is scheduled during the phase I, with 5 additional patients per group.

The maximal tolerated dose of Deferasirox will be required for the phase II of the study.

The first dose will be assigned according to the ferritin level of the patient at time of inclusion:

5 mg/kg/d if the ferritin is >300ng/ml and < 1000ng/ml in Group 1 10 mg/kg/d if the ferritin is ≥1000ng/ml) in Group 2

Group 1 : Ferritin 300 to 1000ng /ml:

  • cohort 1 : 5 mg/kg/d
  • cohort 2 : 10mg/kg/d
  • cohort 3 : 15 mg/kg/d

Group 2 : Ferritin > 1000ng /ml:

  • cohort 1 : 10 mg/kg/d
  • cohort 2 : 15mg/kg/d
  • cohort 3 : 20 mg/kg/d 5 patients will be treated by cohort. In absence of toxicity (extra-hematological toxicity grade 3 or 4 or hematological grade 4), 5 additional patients will be included in the next cohort.

Deferasirox will be administrated once daily during all the study period. Uvedose will be administrated once weekly during all the study period (100.000 UI P.O).

Azacitidine will be administrated sc at 75 mg/m²/d, during 7 days, J1 to J7 of each cycles(One cycle is 28 days)

During phase I and II, Deferasirox will always be associated with Vitamin D and Azacitidine

Patients will be received 6 cycles of treatment (except if progression, unacceptable toxicity or withdrawn of patients occured) After 3 and 6 cycles, an evaluation will be done to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment.

No dose modification of deferasirox will be done after 3 cycles of treatment except in case of progression). After 6 cycles, patients with CR, PR, marrow CR or HI will be treated with the same dose of Deferasirox until progression .

Read the detailed description

Deferasirox will be administrated once daily in the morning on an empty stomach, 30 minutes before meal.

Deferasirox will be stopped if the ferritin level is under 100 ng/ml,and could be restarted is the ferritin level increase to 200 ng/ml

Uvedose dose could be adjusted according to the phosphocalcic metabolism parameters and the plasma Vitamin D3 level.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Deferasirox, Vitamin D and Azacitidine in people with MDS, run by Groupe Francophone des Myelodysplasies at 15 sites in 2 countries.

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 15 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in France, Belgium. 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?

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 determine the maximal tolerated dose(MTD (time frame: 6 month of treatment). 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 10 Jan 2018.
