Verified by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand, September 2008
Sponsors and Collaborators: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
Amgen
Information provided by: University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00751894
  Purpose

Hypothesis : pegfilgrastim at 200 µg/kg between 12 and 18 days after previous chemotherapy provides an efficient stem cell mobilization in children with malignancies Design: phase 2 study. Judgment criterion: percentage of children achieving at least 5x10e6 CD34 cells with a standard apheresis (less than 3 blood volume processed


Condition Intervention Phase
Solid Malignancies
Drug: Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta, Amgen)

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Uncontrolled, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: Haematopoietic Progenitor Cell Mobilization in Children With Malignancies: Evaluation of Pegfilgrastim at 200µg/kg After Chemotherapy

Further study details as provided by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • percentage of children achieving at least 5x10e6 CD34 cells with a standard apheresis (less than 3 blood volume processed) [ Time Frame: less than 3 blood volume processed ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Side effects Number of apheresis required to achieved a graft of at least 5x10e6 CD34 cells [ Time Frame: at least 5*10e6CD34cells ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 30
Study Start Date: August 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: March 2010
Estimated Primary Completion Date: March 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Drug: Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta, Amgen)
    sequential Bayesian study
Detailed Description:

Patients: consecutively referred for HSC mobilization. 12 to 18 days after the previous chemotherapy. No haematological growth factor during the 8 previous days.

Mobilization: one sc injection of 200 µg/kg pegfilgrastim (Neulasta, Amgen) Evaluation during the study: CD34 circulating cells from day 3 to day 7 ; AE recording Judgment criterion: percentage of children achieving at least 5x10e6 CD34 cells with a standard apheresis (less than 3 blood volume processed) Analysis: sequential Bayesian study
