NCT00245037 · STUDY IN CONTEXT
Busulfan, Fludarabine, and Total-Body Irradiation in Treating Patients Who Are Undergoing a Donor Stem Cell Transplant for Hematologic Cancer
Draft scope assessment: narrower. Linked by condition-string match at the cancer-entity level. The study's eligibility - stage, biomarker, treatment line and prior therapy - has not been reconciled against this page's definition, so its population is narrower than this page in ways not yet recorded. The condition was transformed or resolved through the terminology hierarchy to reach this cancer type, so the link itself is a candidate a reviewer must confirm. Found by searching ClinicalTrials.gov for this cancer type, restricted to studies that have posted results to the registry. No FDA notice, FDA label or NCI summary held by this site cites this study. Because the search asked for posted results, studies without posted results were never looked for, so their absence from this page means nothing.

Linked outcomes
Non-hematologic toxicities and adverse experiences ≥ Grade 3 occurrences measured up to day +100 using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0 (CTCAE). Infections and GVHD will be assessed up to 5 years post transplant. The following data represents the number of regimen-related, grade 3 and 4 toxicities that occurred in each category.
Percent of subjects with non-relapse mortality two years after conditioning with busulfan with fludarabine/200 cGy TBI in patients with hematologic malignancies at moderate to high risk for graft rejection and/or relapse of underlying disease.
The percentage of overall patient survival (out of 147 participants) for Years 1, 2, 3 and 5.
The percentage of progression-free patients (out of 147 participants) at Years 1, 2, 3, and 5. Definition of Disease Progression: MM/Plasma Cell: Increasing bone pain or increase in serum/urine monoclonal protein by 25%. CLL/NHL/HD: New sites of lymphadenopathy; ≥ 25% increase in lymph node size; Blood or bone marrow involvement with clonal B-cells; Increase of ≥ 25% bone marrow involvement; ≥ 25% increase in blood involvement with clonal B-cells. AML/ALL: Any incidence of relapse (\>5% blasts) by evaluation of the bone marrow aspirate. CML: Inability to control platelet or granulocyte counts; Increase in baseline number of metaphases demonstrating the Ph+ chromosome by \>25%; Any other new cytogenetic abnormality; Transformation to accelerated phase or blast crisis. MDS/MPD: Any evidence by morphologic or flow cytometric evaluation of the bone marrow aspirate of new blasts (\>5%) or worsening cytopenia or cytogenetic evidence of recurrence.
The percentage of patients (out of 147 participants) who relapsed at Years 1 and 2. Relapse is defined as the presence of \>5% blasts by morphology on a post-transplant bone marrow aspirate.
Grading of Acute GVHD: Severity of Individual Organ Involvement: Skin * 1 a maculopapular eruption involving less than 25% of the body surface * 2 a maculopapular eruption involving 25-50% of the body surface * 3 generalized erythroderma * 4 generalized erythroderma with bullous formation and/or with desquamation Liver * 1 bilirubin 2.0-3.0mg/100mL * 2 bilirubin 3-5.9mg/100mL * 3 bilirubin 6-14.9mg/100mL * 4 bilirubin \>15mg/100mL Gut Diarrhea is graded +1 to +4 in severity. Nausea/vomiting and/or anorexia caused by GVHD is assigned as +1 in severity Diarrhea * 1 \<1000mL of liquid stool/day * 2 \>1,000mL of stool/day * 3 \>1,500mL of stool/day * 4 2,000mL of stool/day, severe abdominal pain, with or without ileus Severity of GVHD: Grade 1 +1 to +2 skin rash; No gut or liver involvement Grade 2 +1 to +3 skin rash;+1 GI involvement and/or +1 liver

Busulfan: Busulfan is an alkylating chemotherapeutic agent which has been used in many high dose and reduced intensity regimens prior to allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplants. It is active in a wide variety of malignancies and in high-doses it is myeloablative. IV Busulfan is available and diluted and administered per package insert guidelines. Cyclosporine: Cyclosporine is a cyclic polypeptide immunosuppressive agent. It blocks the calcium-dependent calcineurin-mediated nuclear localization of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) following T-cell activation, thereby inhibiting transactivation of key T-cell response genes including
