About this study

Official title: Myeloma Treatment in Real Life : Pharmacoepidemiological Approach in Midi-pyrénées

As part of an oral treatment regimen in ambulatory practice, certain uses in connection with drug consumption associated could alter treatment outcomes observed in randomized clinical trials.

The increase in progression-free survival in myeloma may be accompanied by an impaired quality of life and a resurgence of pain symptoms over time, which could potentially lead to medication overuse involving painkillers but also psychotropic drugs. These combined consumption may affect survival through mechanisms of pharmacological or non-pharmacological interactions.

As part of this project, we wish to explore the scheme of adherence to myeloma drugs, and thus validate the decision diagram of hypothesis of not adequate of drug use in ambulatory conditions, from observational data. This discrepancy could result from poor adherence or suboptimal drug use but also from concomitant exposures to other drugs which may interact with myeloma. Before considering a study of greater magnitude that could address the consequences of non optimal drug use on clinical response criteria, such as duration of response or survival, it seems appropriate to confirm these assumptions within ' an exploratory study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of myeloma treatment observance in real life as assessed by data collected in french national system of information of health insurance

    Measured: Through the end of study (15 months)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Description deliverance scheme of treatment used in multiple myeloma as assessed by data collected in french national system of information of health insurance

    Measured: Through the end of study (15 months)

  2. Evaluation of respect of official recommendation related to observance in multiple myeloma treatment as assessed by expression of Medication Possession Ratio (MPR)

    The Medication Possession Ratio (MPR) measure compliance of prescriber with official recommendations and the one for the patient in relation to the prescription by evaluating the difference between the quantities delivered and the theoretical quantities calculated in joining recommended intake scheme. It is estimated by the ratio of number of defined daily doses delivered over a given period and the number of theoretical defined daily doses if maximum observance

    Measured: Through the end of study (15 months)

  3. Description of care consumption in multiple myeloma as assessed by data collected in french national system of information of health insurance

    Measured: Through the end of study (15 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Myeloma, run by University Hospital, Toulouse.

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 1 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 20 Aug 2018. 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?

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?

Evaluation of myeloma treatment observance in real life as assessed by data collected in french national system of information of health insurance (time frame: Through the end of study (15 months)). 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 2018.
