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

  • DLI Recipient
  • Relapsed AML or ALL ≥ 60 days after allogeneic SCT.
  • Evidence of residual donor chimerism on most recent analysis (within 4 weeks of enrollment).
  • Age ≥ 18 years of age,
  • Karnofsky performance status ≥ 60%.
  • Absence of active GVHD and off immunosuppression. Subjects on tapering prednisone will be eligible if their dose is 0.25 mg/kg or less and being actively tapered. We suggest a 28 day waiting period off of immunosuppression but some subjects with rapidly progressive disease may need to be treated before 30 days and will still be eligible.

  • Adequate organ function: Cr ≤ 2 mg/dL; ALT/AST < 3x ULN, direct bili <3x ULN.
  • Matched sibling or un-related donor (A, B, C, and DR) available to undergo leukopheresis.
  • Subjects must be able to sign consent and be willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan and laboratory testing.
  • Willing to provide blood samples for research purposes.
  • Willing to adhere to medically accepted form of birth control to prevent pregnancy (includes: complete abstention from intercourse, condoms, diaphragms, cervical cap, intra-uterine device, history of surgical sterility - tubal ligation or vasectomy in patient or partner, or oral contraceptive).
  • DLI Donor
  • HLA identical to recipient subject.
  • Considered medically eligible for leukopheresis procedure by independent donor physician (University of Pennsylvania physician who is not the recipient's primary transplant physician for related donors; physician designated by National Marrow Donor Program for unrelated donors).
  • Considered medically eligible to receive G-CSF (filgrastim) by independent donor physician.

Who cannot join

  • Recipient
  • Prior cell therapy for relapse within the past 90 days.
  • Requirement for active immunosuppression to treat GVHD.
  • Pregnant or lactating women. The safety of this therapy on unborn children and effects on breast milk are not known.
  • Uncontrolled active infection
  • Any uncontrolled active medical disorder that would preclude participation as outlined.
  • Donor
  • Unable to participate in a leukopheresis procedure or receive G-CSF (filgrastim).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Interferon alpha-2B (IFN-α) 3 million units (MU) subcutaneous daily in people with Leukemia, run by Abramson Cancer Center at Penn Medicine 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 15 inclusion and 8 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 21 Apr 2020. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of Adverse Events (time frame: 2 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 21 Apr 2020.
