About this study

Official title: Busulfan, Fludarabine, Donor Stem Cell Transplant, and Cyclophosphamide in Treating Participants With Multiple Myeloma or Myelofibrosis

This phase II trial studies how well busulfan, fludarabine, donor stem cell transplant, and cyclophosphamide in treating participants with multiple myeloma or myelofibrosis. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as busulfan, fludarabine, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemotherapy before a donor stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cells in the bone marrow, including normal blood-forming cells (stem cells) and cancer cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the participant they may help the participant's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Giving busulfan and fludarabine before and cyclophosphamide after donor stem cell may work better in treating participants with multiple myeloma or myelofibrosis.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate non-relapse mortality (NRM) up to day +100.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate non-relapse mortality (NRM) up to day +365. II. To evaluate the incidence of acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD up to day +365 post-transplant.

III. To evaluate the overall survival and disease free survival up to 1 year. IV. To evaluate clinical response and molecular response (complete response and partial response) up to 1 year.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive busulfan intravenously (IV) over 2 hours and fludarabine IV over 30 minutes on days -5 to -2. Participants undergo hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) on day 0. Participants then receive cyclophosphamide IV over 60 minutes on days 3 and 4.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up for 1 year.

What is being measured

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

  1. Non-relapse Mortality (NRM) at Day 100

    NRM is defined as death due to GVHD, infections, sepsis, organ (lung, liver, kidney) toxicity. Death from underlying disease (i.e. progression or relapse) is not considered NRM.

    Measured: Up to day 100

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Non-relapse Mortality (NRM) at Day 365

    NRM is defined as death due to GVHD, infections, sepsis, organ (lung, liver, kidney) toxicity. Death from underlying disease (i.e. progression or relapse) is not considered NRM.

    Measured: Up to day 365

  2. Incidence of Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD)

    Cases of acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) will be diagnosed by the treating physician and will be reported as a count of participants with acute GVHD.

    Measured: Up to day 365

  3. Incidence of Chronic GVHD

    Chronic GVHD will be assessed based on criteria established by the National Institutes of Health Consensus Development Project in 2005, and recently updated in 2014. This will be reported as a count of participants diagnosed with chronic GVHD

    Measured: Up to day 365

  4. Overall Survival at One Year

    Overall survival is defined as the number of participants remaining alive up to one year following stem cell transplant.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  5. Disease Free Survival at One Year

    Disease free survival is defined as an absence of disease relapse or progression up to one year following stem cell transplant.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  6. Number of Participants With Different Clinical Responses

    Clinical Responses were determined by disease-specific criteria taking into account multiple clinical and molecular markers. Multiple Myeloma (MM) response was determined using International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) consensus criteria for response. Participants with MM had either Stringent Complete Response (sCR) or Very Good Partial Response (VGPR). Myelofibrosis (MF) response was determined using International Working Group-Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Research and Treatment (IWG-MRT) and European LeukemiaNet (ELN) consensus criteria. Participants with MF had either Complete Response (CR) or Stable Disease (SD) (also referred to in the protocol as no response).

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  7. Number of Participants With Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Response

    After bone marrow transplant, bone marrow was collected every 3-6 months (as clinically indicated per treating investigator) for up to one year after bone marrow transplant. Bone marrow was evaluated by a clinical pathologist for any evidence of multiple myeloma (MM) or myelofibrosis (MF). Evidence of MM or MF in the bone marrow is referred to as minimal residual disease (MRD). A participant with evidence of MRD is MRD-positive. A participant with no evidence of MRD is MRD-negative, which is considered an MRD response. This outcome reports the number participants with MRD responses any time between bone marrow transplant up to one year of follow-up.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Busulfan, Cyclophosphamide and Fludarabine in people with Anemia and ASXL1 Gene Mutation, run by University of Utah 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 19 inclusion and 8 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 5 May 2022. 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 May 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Non-relapse Mortality (NRM) at Day 100 (time frame: Up to day 100). 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 5 May 2022.
