About this study

Official title: An Open-label Phase II Study to Determine the Efficacy and Safety of Rituximab and Bortezomib in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acquired Hemophilia A

The purpose of this prospective study is to determine the efficacy and safety of Rituximab plus Bortezomib in patients with newly diagnosed acquired hemophilia A.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety the regimen of Bortezomib with rituximab as first-line treatment to eradicate anti-factor VIII antibodies in newly diagnosed acquired hemophilia A.

All of enrolled patients in this study will be injected Bortezomib plus rituximab. This study will be performed for about 2 years and approximately 22 patients will be enrolled in our insititution.

After obtaining the written informed consent from the patients, the information of demographic and medical history will be collected and laboratory tests will be performed.

Patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be received the regimens: Bortezomib (1.3mg/m2 d1,4,8,11) with rituximab (375mg/m2 for one dose). The information of adverse events will be collected. In case that the evaluation of treatment response might be performed in regular clinical practice, those data will also be collected as well.

Being tested
Bortezomib, Rituximab
Medical subject headings
Factor 8 deficiency, acquired

Receives: Drug: Bortezomib; Drug: Rituximab

What is being measured

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

  1. The time to attain first complete remission (CR)

    Complete remission defined as titer FVIII inhibitor lower than 0.6 Bethesda unit, factor VIII level> 50% and no bleeding events without bypass treatments for 24 hours

    Measured: Last day of the treatment regimen (up to 3 months)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The time to durable treatment response

    The time to durable treatment response was defined as the time from date of achieving CR until the date of relapse or date of death from any cause(whichever came first)

    Measured: During 24 month

  2. Adverse events

    Include major bleeding, infection, nerve toxicity, and so on.

    Measured: During 24 month

  3. Overall survival

    Overall survival was defined as the time from date of first diagnosis until the date of death from any cause,and death from any cause will be recorded.

    Measured: During 24 month

A Phase 2 study testing Bortezomib and Rituximab in people with Acquired Hemophilia A, run by Peking Union Medical College 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 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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 Huacong Cai (01069158271, caihc@pumch.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The time to attain first complete remission (CR) (time frame: Last day of the treatment regimen (up to 3 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 NCT03700229, 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 23 Nov 2018.
