About this study

Official title: Results From a Mexican Long-term Multicentric Study on Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia.

Retrospective, observational study, comparing treatments of acute promyelocytic leukemia in different centers in México.

There is no sufficient information about acute promyelocytic leukemia in America Latina, particularly in Mexico.

For these reason the investigators started a study adding all promyelocityc patients from the main Hospital in Mexico in order to put together a group of patient and analyze the response, overall survival and what are the characteristics of the population.

The investigators included 5 Hospital in Mexico City and states as Monterrey, Guadalajara, San Luis Potosi, Puebla, Veracruz, Yucatán, Oaxaca, Guanajuato, Estado de México.

Even do, the investigators didn´t have arsenic trioxide they are treating patients with standard chemotherapy. These paper will help to show the authorities that the cost of treating patient with standard chemotherapy is much more higher than ATO-ATRA. The investigators are now doing a cost benefit analysis so the investigators, can soon have ATO treatment as standard of care in Mexico for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

A multicentric, retrospective, descriptive, longitudinal study was carried out. Between January 2007 and January 2017, patients of both sexes and different ages, who were candidates for receiving intensive chemotherapy along with tretinoin were included in the study. The diagnosis for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia was determined based on the following criteria: abnormal promyelocytes in the bone marrow and verification of the t(15;17) translocation by karyotype or using RT-PCR to determine the genetic lesion and define the type of PML/RARA isoform.

In Mexico the investigators still treating patients with anthracycline and cytarabine + transretinoic acid. These information will help the authorities to realize the importance of having arsenic trioxide as part of the treatment of these disease, knowing the amount of patient that the investigators have in Mexico, knowing that in the hispanic race the incidence is greater.

What participants receive

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

  • DiagnosisDiagnostic test

    Determine the number of center that are able to process PCR or FISH/Karyotype for PML/RAR or t(15;17)

  • Molecular and KaryotypeDiagnostic test

    Also called FISH, Karyotype, PCR

    To realize the need of having more center we the technology to perform all of these tests

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Promyelocytic Leukemia, Acute, run by Instituto Nacional de Cancerologia de Mexico at 1 site in Mexico.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every 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.

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?

Overall survival in Mexico in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (time frame: January 2007- January 2017). 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 NCT04562818, which also lists 17 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 24 Sep 2020.
