About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Azacitidine Combined with Donor Lymphocyte Infusion for Prevention of Recurrence After Haploid Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in High-risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This study is single-center, single-arm, prospective, Phase II clinical trial with the primary objective of assessing the effectiveness of azacitidine combined with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) in the prevention of recurrence after high-risk haploid hematopoietic stem cells of AML.

At the screening/baseline period, informed consent is obtained and the inclusion/exclusion criteria are checked. Plan to enroll 51 patients, and collect demographic data, medical history data, vital signs, physical examination and laboratory tests (blood routine; urine routine; liver and kidney function;Immune indicators: T cell subsets, Treg, etc.), pregnancy tests for female patients and other necessary auxiliary inspections.The time to start treatment is from the +90 to +180 days after high-risk AML haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Read the detailed description

1.Basic solution: Azacitidine is administered subcutaneously at 32 mg/m2/d for five consecutive days, starting no earlier than day +90 after HSCT, then repeated every 28 days for a total of twelve cycles. DLI is administered after an interval of 48 hours. Prophylactic DLI is given in escalating doses every four to six weeks for a total of three to four doses.The initial dose of DLI for haploid transplant patients is 1×10^5 CD3+/kg receptor weight lymphocytes gradually increased to 5×10^5, 1×10^6 and (2~5)×10^6 CD3+ Lymphocytes.

  1. Start time of medication: +90 ~ +120 days after transplantation.
  2. Donor lymphocyte infusion was preceded by anti-anaphylaxis,such as promethazine and hormone therapy was prohibited.
  3. In the course of AZA and DLI intervention, other targeted drugs such as venetoclax or chemotherapy drugs can be added on the basis of AZA if MRD or MRD increase (>1log) ,DLI continues as planned.

2.Stop treatment: Occurrence of any of the following conditions:

  1. Life-threatening complications.
  2. Acute GVHD above II degree; chronic GVHD above moderate manifestations or overlapping syndrome; No chronic GVHD is observed if acute GVHD remission is observed after discontinuation for 1 to 2 months, then preventive treatment is started again .
  3. Hematologic recurrence, graft rejection or bone marrow donor chimerism <90%.

What is being measured

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

  1. Leukemia-free survival (LFS) time

    Summary statistics for LFS time will be computed for all patients.

    Measured: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. overall survival (OS)

    The method of Kaplan and Meier will be used to estimate the distribution of overall survival. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis will be used to model the association between overall survival and covariates of interest.

    Measured: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.

  2. Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR)

    Use the method of Gooley et al to estimate the cumulative incidence of relapse.

    Measured: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.

  3. Cumulative incidence of acute and chronic GVHD

    Patients diagnosed with acute and chronic GVHD were recorded after DLI intervention.The definition of acute GVHD by national Institutes of Health (NIH) divides acute GVHD into classical acute GVHD and delayed acute GVHD

    Measured: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.

  4. NRM

    The proportion of transplant-related deaths was recorded.

    Measured: NRM

  5. Incidence of toxicity of the regimen

    Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize adverse events.

    Measured: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Azacitidine (AZA) in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Relapse, run by Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.

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 13 inclusion and 13 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jan 2025. 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xianmin Song, M.D (021-63240090, shongxm@139.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Leukemia-free survival (LFS) time (time frame: From the date of transplantation, assessed up to 1 year after transplantation.). 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 17 Jan 2025.
