NCT00045305 · STUDY IN CONTEXT

Reduced-Intensity Regimen Before Donor Bone Marrow Transplant in Treating Patients With Myelodysplastic Syndromes

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.

Completed response is defined as: Bone marrow evaluation: Repeat bone marrow showing \< 5% myeloblasts with normal maturation of all cell lines, with no evidence for dysplasia (see dysplasia qualifier under peripheral blood evaluation). Peripheral blood evaluation \[absolute values must last at least 2 months\] Hemoglobin \>11 g/dl (untransfused, not on erythropoietin) Neutrophils (1500/mm3 (not on a myeloid growth factor)) Platelets (100,000/mm3 (not on a thrombopoetic agent)) Blasts - 0% No dysplasia. No detectable cytogenetic abnormality, if preexisting abnormality was present

secondary · POSTED

Disease free survival (DFS) was listed as a secondary endpoint in the study protocol, which would be assessed in patients who achieved complete response (CR). It was defined to be time from CR to documented progression or to death without progression. Patients without documented progression or death reported were censored at the time of last disease evaluation. However, due to the small number of patients with CR, the number of patients who developed disease progression was reported here.

secondary · POSTED

Overall survival (OS) is defined to be the time from registration to death from any cause, with follow-up censored at the date of last contact. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the distribution of OS.

secondary · POSTED

Time to neutrophil engraftment is defined from date of infusion to date of neutrophil engraftment. Neutrophil engraftment is defined as ANC \> 500/mm3 on two consecutive measurements. The date of engraftment is the date of the first ANC \> 500/mm3.

secondary · POSTED

Time to platelet engraftment is defined from date of infusion to date of platelet engraftment. The platelet engraftment is defined as platelets \> 20,000 on two consecutive measurements, at least seven days apart, without platelet transfusions in between and for at least three days before the first measurement that is over 20,000. The date of engraftment is the date of the first measurement that is over 20,000.

    Preparative Regimen: Patients underwent photopheresis on two consecutive days and received pentostatin 4 mg/m2/d (total dose = 8 mg/m2) by continuous IV infusion on two consecutive days following photopheresis. Total body irradiation was administered on two consecutive days following pentostatin for a total of 600 cGy given in three 200 cGy fractionated doses. Transplantation: Unmanipulated allogeneic bone marrow or G-CSF mobilized peripheral blood stem cells were infused on day 0 within 48 hours of completion of TBI. Minimum cell dose was 2 ×106 CD34 cells/kg recipient. Acute graft-vs-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis: Patients received Cyclosporine or Tacrolimus per institutional preference or protocol beginning no later than day -1. Methotrexate (MTX) was administered on day +1 and +3. Mycofenolate mofetil (MMF) was introduced on day 100 and could be tapered and discontinued after 12 months if no active cGVHD.
