About this study

Official title: A Historically-controlled, Multi-center Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Tacrolimus (Prograf Capsule, Prograf Injection) and Methotrexate Combination Therapy for Prevention of GVHD in Patients Who Received Peripheral Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation From a Sibling Donor

The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Tacrolimus (Prograf capsule, Prograf injection) and Methotrexate combination therapy for GVHD prophylaxis in patients who received peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor, and to compare with data from a historical control group that administered a conventional Cyclosporine formulation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of occurrence sites of acute GVHD occurring within 100 days after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 100 post-transplant

  2. Severity of acute GVHD occurring within 100 days after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor

    Severity is graded according to the Seattle criteria, between 1+ ~ 4+ depending on the severity of the injury of the skin, liver and digestive system, and the overall grade is classified by including the performance change.

    Measured: Day 1 up to Day 100 post-transplant

  3. Number of occurrence sites of chronic GVHD occurring after 100 days after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor

    Measured: Day 100 up to 1 year post-transplant

  4. Classification of chronic GVHD occurring after 100 days after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor

    Depending on the extent of occurrence, it is classified as limited (present only locally) and extensive (systemic lesions). Depending on the presence of preceding acute GVHD, it is classified as progressive for a patient with preceding acute GVHD (chronic GVHD following the occurrence of acute GVHD), quiescent (chronic GVHD after relief of acute GVHD symptoms) or otherwise (de novo).

    Measured: Day 100 up to 1 year post-transplant

  5. Safety as assessed by adverse events

    Measured: Day 1 up to 1 year post-transplant

  6. Safety as assessed by laboratory assessments

    Includes hematology, biochemistry and trough plasma concentration analysis

    Measured: Day 1 up to 1 year post-transplant

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of patients alive after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor

    Measured: Day 1 up to 1 year post-transplant

  2. Percentage of patients alive after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor in comparison with Cyclosporine in combination with MTX

    Measured: Day 1 up to 1 year post-transplant

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Prograf, Methotrexate and Cyclosporine in people with Graft Versus Host Disease, run by Astellas Pharma Korea, Inc. at 3 sites in South Korea.

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 9 inclusion and 5 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 1 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in South Korea. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 occurrence sites of acute GVHD occurring within 100 days after peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a sibling donor (time frame: Day 1 up to Day 100 post-transplant). The study lists 6 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 1 Mar 2016.
