About this study

Official title: Determinants of Mercaptopurine Toxicity in Paediatric Acute Lymphoblastic

The present study was conducted to assess the population pharmacokinetics of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and genetic polymorphisms

Read the detailed description

The investigators' purpose was to identify genetic factors and metabolite concentrations associated with both hematological toxicity in patients with ALL maintained on 6-MP in Chinese.

Being tested
Mercaptopurine
Medical subject headings
Precursor Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia-Lymphoma

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MercaptopurineDrug

    Also called Purinethol

    Dose of mercaptopurine was adjusted to maintain a target white blood cells (WBC) between 2.0-3.0 × 109/L.

Receives: Drug: Mercaptopurine

What is being measured

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

  1. Red blood cells (RBC) concentration of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP)

    To detect of RBC 6-MP metabolite concentrations and evaluate the association of metabolite concentrations and side effects

    Measured: at second day after oral administration

  2. Genetic polymorphisms in Chinese patients with ALL

    To detect the frequencies of genetic polymorphisms of Chinese patients receiving 6-MP for treatment of ALL

    Measured: at second day after oral administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Mercaptopurine in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Shandong University.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Apr 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

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?

Red blood cells (RBC) concentration of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) (time frame: at second day after oral administration). 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 23 Apr 2019.
