About this study

Official title: Single, High Dose Vitamin A Replacement in Patients Undergoing Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation and Its Role on MBI-LCBI Rates

The primary objective of this study is to establish that single dose vitamin A supplementation is feasible and safe in pediatric and young adult bone marrow transplant recipients until day +30 (± 7 days) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Read the detailed description

The investigators' preliminary data suggest that low levels of vitamin A directly impact risk of mucosal barrier injury laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infection (MBI-LCBI), likely via decreased gut permeability, and they hypothesize supplemental vitamin A at the time of HSCT can reduce the risk of MBI-LCBI and gastrointestinal graft versus host disease (GI GVHD). A 3x3 dose escalation/de-escalation study design will be used to determine the safety and dosing required to maintain vitamin A levels in the upper quartile of normal range for age at day +30 (± 7 days) with single dose vitamin A supplementation prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitamin A in people with Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant, 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 1 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 30 May 2018. 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 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?

Vitamin A Level (time frame: 30 days after HSCT). 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 30 May 2018.
