About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Single, High Dose Vitamin D Replacement in Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy and safety of high dose vitamin D therapy among HSCT patients in a tiered, step-wise manner (step one/two) in order to define treatment doses capable of providing vitamin D sufficiency.

Read the detailed description

Vitamin D deficiency is common in childhood and has been associated with increased incidence of graft versus host disease (GVHD) and decreased survival in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Recently, quality improvement efforts to correct serum vitamin D levels among inpatients at CCHMC who have already received HSCT and who were vitamin D deficient suggest that current recommended doses of vitamin D are inadequate to treat vitamin D deficiency. Possible hindrances to vitamin D treatment in the HSCT population include malabsorption related to gut GVHD, mucositis, increased requirement for calcium and/or vitamin D, kidney disease, liver disease, and infection. Single, high dose vitamin D treatment (stoss-therapy) has been utilized effectively to treat rickets and other chronic illnesses such as cystic fibrosis in children. The investigators hypothesize that stoss-therapy provided orally prior to transplantation will result in rapid and sustained correction of vitamin D deficiency in children who require HSCT. The investigators propose to test the efficacy and safety of high dose vitamin D therapy among HSCT patients in a tiered, step-wise manner (step one/two) in order to define treatment doses capable of providing vitamin D sufficiency.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitamin D in people with Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati 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 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Aug 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Step 1 enrollment complete.). 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?

Serum 25OHD level (time frame: Weekly for 8 weeks). 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 20 Aug 2020.
