What participants receive

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

  • carfilzumibDrug

    carfilzumib will be added to the standard regimen of drugs for prevention of graft-versus-host disease.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
carfilzumibExperimentalCarfilzomib at a dose of 20mg/m2 I.V. will be administrated at day 1, 2 post infusion of the stem cell (SC) graft to the first 10 patients. If no > grade II toxicity* the next 10 patients will receive Carfilzomib (27 mg/m2) at day 1,2 and 8, 9, 15 and 16. If no > grade II toxicity* the next 10 patients will receive 2-3 cycles of Carfilzomib (27 mg/m2) administered at day 1,2 8,9,15 and 16 post SC graft infusion.

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of acute graft-versus host disease

    We will evaluate the incidence of acute GVHD, grading and organ involvementBY STANDARD INTERNATIONAL CRITERIA.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease

    We will evaluate the progression of acute graft-versus-host disease to chronic graft-versus-host disease and the grading and organ involvement.

    Measured: 1 year

  2. survival rate

    We will evaluate overall and disease-free survival after stem cell transplantation

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing carfilzumib in people with Graft-versus-host Disease, run by Sheba Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 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 2 Dec 2015. 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 Israel. 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 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.

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?

Contact Arnon Nagler, MD (972 3 530 5830, a.nagler@sheba.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of acute graft-versus host disease (time frame: 3 months). 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 NCT01991301, 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 2 Dec 2015.
