About this study

Official title: an Single Center,Single Arm, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of PD-1 Inhibitor Combined With Azacytidine and HAG Regimen for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

This is an single center, single arm, phase 3 study to evaluate efficacy and safety of PD-1 Inhibitor combined with DNA methyltransferase inhibitor Azacytidine and HAG regimen for patients with relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

Read the detailed description

Treatment for Acute Myeloid Leukemia(AML) that has not responded to treatment (refractory) or has returned after treatment (relapsed) often do not work. Researchers want to see if an immunotherapy drug, combined with a less intense chemotherapy, may be able to help.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Visilizumab in people with Immunotherapy and Refractory Leukemia, run by The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University 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 11 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 3 Dec 2021. 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 China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Han Yue, Ph.D ((0086)51267781856, hanyue@suda.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete remission, Incomplete blood count recovery,Partial remission(CR+CRi+PR) (time frame: 8 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 NCT04722952, which also lists 11 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 3 Dec 2021.
