About this study

Official title: Dendritic Cell-based Active Immunotherapy of Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia Using Autologous Cells Transfected With RNA Encoding Two Different Leukemia-associated Antigens

This is a multi-centre, open label, prospective, non-randomized phase I/II trial in 20 patients including a safety-run in phase I part comprising 6 patients.

Trial subjects will receive repeated immunotherapies with autologous Dendritic Cells (DCs), presenting two leukemia-associated antigens.

Read the detailed description

20 patients with AML who are in remission (ELN criteria by Döhner et al 2017) receive WT1/PRAME autologous DC vaccine by intradermal injection once per week during the first 4 weeks and 1 per month thereafter for 23 consecutive months.

Primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of the DC vaccine in the aforementioned population and the feasibility.

Secondary objectives include evaluation of clinical response and exploratory immune monitoring assessments.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall survival

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Relapse/Progression free survival

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Time to progression (TTP).

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Control of minimal residual disease (MRD)

    Measured: 2 years

  5. ECOG performance status

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Cellular immune responses to applied antigens

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing WT1/PRAME vaccination in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Medigene AG at 1 site in Norway.

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 19 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 7 Jul 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 Norway. 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?

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?

Percentage of patients in whom treatment with the scheduled number of immunotherapies is feasible (time frame: 2 years). 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?
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 7 Jul 2020.
