About this study

Official title: Route and Adequacy of Nutrition and Outcomes of Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Patients With Haematological Neoplasms

Retrospective case-note review to determine if nutrition via the enteral compared to the parenteral route results in better outcomes after haematopoietic cell transplantation.

Read the detailed description

This is a retrospective case-note review of adults undergoing haematopoietic cell transplantation to treat a haematological malignancy who have been admitted to Hammersmith Hospital from 2000 to 2014. All patients receiving an allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplant from a matched sibling or identically matched unrelated donor will be included. We will record the route and assess the broad adequacy of nutritional intakes to determine if nutrition via the enteral compared to the parenteral route results in better outcomes after haematopoietic cell transplantation. Our outcomes are graft versus host disease incidence and severity, transplant related (early) mortality and overall survival.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) at Any Site (Grade II or Above) and Acute GvHD of the Gut of Any Grade

    Occurrence of acute GvHD at any site (grade II or above) and acute GvHD of the gut of any grade (graded according to standard criteria). Standard criteria to grade the severity of acute GvHD are quantification of rash, serum bilirubin and diarrhoea. These standard criteria have been developed and used for > 20 years by most transplant centres to improve comparability between publications.

    Measured: 100 days after the date of hematopoietic cell infusion

  2. Non Relapse Mortality

    Defined as death without previous relapse

    Measured: 100 days after the date of hematopoietic cell infusion

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Graft Versus Host Disease-free and Relapse-free Survival

    GvHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS). Events in GRFS included grade 3-4 acute GvHD, systemic therapy-requiring chronic GvHD, relapse, or death

    Measured: 5 years after the date of hematopoietic cell infusion

  2. 5 Year Survival

    Measured: 5 years after the date of hematopoietic cell infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant and Graft Versus Host Disease, run by Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 21 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 21 Oct 2019). 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?

Number of Participants With Acute Graft Versus Host Disease (GvHD) at Any Site (Grade II or Above) and Acute GvHD of the Gut of Any Grade (time frame: 100 days after the date of hematopoietic cell infusion). The study lists 2 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 21 Oct 2019.
