Trial summary

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative option for most of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). However, relapse after HSCT severely influence the long-term overall survival (OS). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Modified Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide Combined With DCAG as a Bridge Followed by Busulfan, Fludarabine and Melphalan Based Conditioning Regimen for Children With Juvenile Myelomonocytic Leukemia

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative option for most of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). However, relapse after HSCT severely influence the long-term overall survival (OS). Researches demonstrate that these malignant myeloid disorders is a particular responsiveness to epigenetic therapy with the DNA-hypomethylating agents decitabine. However, hypomethylating therapy does not eradicate the malignant clone in JMML and an emerging concept with intriguing potential is the combination of hypomethylating therapy and HSCT. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is major complication after HSCT as a threshold of the quality of patient life. Many data indicate that post -transplant cyclophosphamide (PT/Cy) is an effective method to control the occurrence of GVHD.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative option for most of juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). However, persistent disease statute and relapse after HSCT severely influence the long-term overall survival (OS). Researches demonstrate that JMML is an aggressive myeloproliferative neoplasm occurring in young children. The common denominator of these malignant myeloid disorders is a particular responsiveness to epigenetic therapy with the DNA-hypomethylating agents 5-azacytidine (azacitidine) or decitabine. However, hypomethylating therapy does not eradicate the malignant clone in JMML and an emerging concept with intriguing potential is the combination of hypomethylating therapy and HSCT. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is severe complication after HSCT. Post -transplant cyclophosphamide (PT/Cy) is an effective method to control the occurrence of GVHD. Based on these encouraging results, investigators launched a noval method for patients diagnosed as JMML and treated in our institution. They modified PT/Cy conditioning regimens. Patients all subsequently received modified DCAG regimen as the induction chemotherapy including decitabine of 20 mg/m2 intravenously over 4 h for five consecutive days (Day -15 to -11) followed by cytarabine of 10 mg/m2 q12 h for 7 days (Day -15 to -9), aclarubicin of 10 mg/day for 4 days (Day -12 to -9), and G-CSF 5µg/kg per day for priming until white blood count was >20 x109/L and immediately followed by myeloablative conditioning regimen (MAC) consisted with thymoglobulin (2.5mg/kg/day) which was administered for 3 days (Day -8 to -6), iv Bu (4 mg/kg in divided doses daily for 4 days) on days -5, -4, -3, and -2, iv Flu (30 mg/m2 once daily for 4 days, total dose 120 mg/m2) on days -5, -4, -3, and -2 and iv Melphlan (70 mg/m2 once daily for 3 days, total dose210 mg/m2) was performed on days -4 and -2.

  • DecitabineDrug

    Also called Dacogen

    Decitabine for injection

What is being measured

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

  1. disease statue

    Disease status can be measured by test the of (minimal residual disease) MRD, MRD<0,01% as negative. The quantitative of gene mutation is "0" as negative.

    Measured: one months

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Oct 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

disease statue (time frame: one months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03687463, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 2 Oct 2018.
