Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) has been increasingly adopted as a modality to allow preparative conditioning pre-transplant to be tolerated by older adults or those patients that are otherwise unfit for myeloablative conditioning. In this study Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) conditioning is used and followed by match aploidentical donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Determine the GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS) post-HCT ( Arm-A) [12 months]

      Clinical effect will be assessed as graft vs host disease (GVHD)-free relapse free survival (GRFS), GVHD-free is defined as no GVHD symptoms, and relapse free survival is defined as survival at 12 months without relapse. The outcome will be measured in Arm A only.

    2. Determine the overall survival (OS) post-HCT ( Arm-B) [2 years]

      Overall survival is measured as number of participants alive. Alive at the time of last observation will be censored.

    3. Incidence of Grade III-IV acute GVHD [At baseline, day +30, 60, 90, 180, year 1 and year 2]

      Acute GVHD will be staged and graded per Mount Sinai Acute GvHD International Consortium (MAGIC) Standardization criteria.

    4. The incidence and timing of primary graft failure [2 years from the Day 0 (day of CD34+ peripheral blood stem cell infusion]

      Primary graft failure is defined as being alive with donor CD3 chimerism <5% at day +30 after transplant without recovery of neutrophils (i.e. without achieving an absolute neutrophil count [ANC] ≥ 500/mm3 for 3 consecutive days) at Day+28

    5. Donor CD3 chimerism at Day+60 post-HCT [2 years from the Day 0 (day of CD34+ peripheral blood stem cell infusion)]

      Defined as a percentage on donor CD3 cells chimerism at day +60 after transplantation.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. GVHD-relapse-free survival [12 months]

      Clinical effect will be assessed as graft vs host disease (GVHD)-free relapse free survival (GRFS), GVHD-free is defined as no GVHD grade 3 and 4, and relapse free survival is defined as survival at 12 months without relapse.

    2. Overall survival [12 months]

      Overall survival is measured as number of participants alive. Alive at the time of last observation will be censored.

    3. Secondary graft failure [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      Secondary graft failure (defined by donor CD3 chimerism <5% at day +30 after transplant) and neutrophil engraftment followed by subsequent decline in ANC < 500/mm3 unresponsive to growth factor therapy, by Day +100

    4. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAs) [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      TEAEs will be categorized by the System Organ Class and preferred term and will be graded according to the CTCAE version 5.0

    5. Acute GVHD (all grades) [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      Acute GVHD (all grades) will be reported

    6. Steroid-refractory acute GVHD [within 3-5 days of therapy onset]

      Steroid refractory acute GVHD will be defined as per the EBMT-NIH-CIBMTR Task Force position statement

    7. Non-relapse mortality (NRM) [12 months]

      Non-relapse mortality is measured as number of participants died without relapse/ recurrent disease. Subjects without evidence of relapse/progression at last follow-up date or date of death will be censored.

    8. Disease-free survival (DFS) [12 months]

      Overall survival is measured as number of participants alive and in remission. Alive in remission at the time of last observation will be censored.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Time to Neutrophil engraftment [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      Neutrophil engraftment is defined as having an ANC ≥ 500 cells/µL for three consecutive days. The first of three days will be designated as the day of engraftment.

    2. Time to Platelet engraftment [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      Platelet engraftment is defined as achieving a platelet count > 20,000 cells/µL for three consecutive days without platelet transfusion in the preceding 7 days. The first of three days will be designated as the day of engraftment.

    3. Incidence of serious infections (grade 2 and greater) [from Day 0 through 100 days]

      Incidence of serious infections will be measured as event of infections that led to hospitalization or death or required antibiotic treatment. Infections will be graded according to the CTCAE version 5.0
