  • Ages 18 years and older

  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in first remission following completion of consolidation therapy and concomitantly treated with interleukin-2 (IL-2) which will receive treatment with CEPLENE® for the first time. Patients are eligible when gene status was already determined for previous induction and consolidation therapy of AML and showed carrier of NPM1, CBFβ-MYH11, or MLL-AF9 mutation.

Patient eligibility criteria in accordance to the summary of Product Characteristics:

  • Patients with confirmed diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification (including de novo AML, t-AML and s-AML) in first complete remission (defined as less than 5% blasts in a normocellular bone marrow assessed prior to the treatment start)
  • AMLSG BiO participation incl. favourable opinion
  • Presence of NPM1 mutation, CBFB-MYH11 or MLL-AF9 fusion genes as assessed in one of the central AMLSG reference laboratories.
  • Measurable MRD values (non-negative values after consolidation therapy or increase in values over the threshold during follow-up in complete remission)
  • The patient must be informed of the observation and written informed consent regarding data privacy obtained.
  • Consent for registration, storage and processing of the individual disease-characteristics and course as well as information of the family physician and all other treating physicians about observation participation
  • No continuing systemic treatment with clonidine, steroids, and/or H2 receptor blocking agents.

About this study

This is a non-interventional multi-center study (NIS) in adult patients with AML in first complete remission with measurable minimal residual disease (MRD). Patients are eligible when gene status was already determined for previous induction and consolidation therapy of AML and showed carrier of NPM1, CBFβ-MYH11, or MLL-AF9 mutation. The study objective is to observe the impact of pre-emptive therapy with histamine dihydrochloride (HDC) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) with regard to assess leukemia-free survival/time to relapse and to monitor MRD level trend over time. HDC and IL-2 are approved drugs for AML patients in first complete remission. Therapy is administered for 10 treatment cycles as outlined in the Summary of Product Characteristics.

What is being measured

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

  1. leukemia-free survival / cumulative incidence of relapse

    Measured: two years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Toxicity induced by the preemptive treatment with Ceplene and IL-2

    Duration of neutropenia and leukopenia after each treatment cycle, incidence of infections, duration of hospitalization

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Overall survival

    Measured: two years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by University of Ulm at 22 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 9 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 22 sites in Germany. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Recruitment goal cannot be achieved any more as only 8 patients have been recruited since start of the study in 2012.). 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?

leukemia-free survival / cumulative incidence of relapse (time frame: two years). 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 9 Apr 2018.
