About this study

Official title: Multiple Consolidation Chemotherapy and DLI Prevent Second Relapse in Patients With Relapsed Acute Leukemia After Allotransplant and Achieving Complete Remission After Induction Chemotherapy and DLI

Patients with acute leukemia relapsing after allotransplant and who respond to anti-leukaemia interventions are at high-risk of a second relapse. Previous studies from investigators reported an association between a positive minimal residual disease (MRD)-test after transplant and an increased risk of subsequent relapse. Also, patients developing chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) after receiving DLI (donor lymphocyte infusion)for leukemia relapse after a first allotransplant have a lower likelihood of a second relapse compared with similar patients not developing chronic GvHD. And, our previous study also reported patients with chronic GvHD after DLI was associated with a greater frequency of a negative MRD-test and lower likelihood of subsequent relapse compared with similar persons not developing chronic GvHD. Based on these data the investigators designed a randomized control study to determine whether giving additional consolidation chemotherapy and DLI might decrease likelihood of second relapse in persons without chronic GvHD or with a positive MRD-test after initial post-relapse therapy with induction chemotherapy and DLI.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • donor lymphocyte infusionDrug

    Also called chemotherapy

    Participants in study group receive chemotherapy and donor lymphocyte infusion based on the state of GvHD, even they have a negative result of MRD. If participants in study group have no GvHD, they will receive chemotherapy and donor lymphocyte infusion until they develop GvHD. If the participants in study group have GvHD, they will be observed. But, the participants in control group don't receive chemotherapy and donor lymphocyte infusion as long as they have a negative result of MRD, in despite of whether or not GvHD.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with a positive results of minimal residual disease that is evaluated by testing aberrant leukemia-associated immune phenotypes and WT1 mRNA levels.

    Investigators use two strategies to test for minimal residual disease in bone marrow samples: (1) aberrant leukemia-associated immune phenotypes detected by 4 colour flow cytometry; and (2) WT1 mRNA levels detected by polymerase chain reaction.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of participants who relapsed

    Relapse was defined as recurrence of ≥5% bone marrow blasts or of ≥1 extra-medullary sites of leukaemia.

    Measured: one year

  2. Number of surviving participants

    The outcomes of participants are recored until one year

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing donor lymphocyte infusion in people with Donor Lymphocyte Infusion and Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation, run by Peking University People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 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 China. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Chen-hua Yan, Dr (8610-82816999, yanchenhua@vip.sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with a positive results of minimal residual disease that is evaluated by testing aberrant leukemia-associated immune phenotypes and WT1 mRNA levels. (time frame: one year). 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 10 Mar 2020.
