Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The treatment of systemic mastocytosis has two main axes:
  • Control of mast cell activation symptoms and

  • The control of proliferation (accumulation) of mast cells.

There is no standard treatment and no treatment has a marketing authorization for the treatment of monoclonal indolent mastocytosis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2/Phase 3

Detailed Description

Mastocytosis is an orphan disease related to the accumulation and / or the proliferation of abnormal mast cells in different tissues.

In adults, a classic distinction is made between isolated cutaneous forms (10 to 15%) and systemic forms (85 to 90%).

The treatment of systemic mastocytosis has two main axes:
  • Control of mast cell activation symptoms and

  • The control of proliferation (accumulation) of mast cells.

There is no standard treatment and no treatment has a marketing authorization for the treatment of monoclonal indolent mastocytosis.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Treatment

Patients will be treated by hydroxychloroquine at a dose of 6 to 6.5mg/kg/day

Drug: Hydroxychloroquine
Patients will be treated by hydroxychloroquine at a dose of 6 to 6.5mg/kg/day during 12 month

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change of mast cell activation symptoms [12 month]

    The primary endpoint of this study is the change of mast cell activation symptoms as pruritus between the start of treatment and 12 months later. Skin pruritus will be assessed by the visual analogue scale from 0 to 10 at each visit.

  2. Change of mast cell activation symptoms [12 month]

    The primary endpoint of this study is the change of mast cell activation symptoms as flushes between the start of treatment and 12 months later. The skin flush will be evaluated according to the absolute number of flushes / week at each visit

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Difference on mast cell burden - serum tryptase level [12 month]

    The difference on mast cell burden between the start of treatment and 12 months later will be evaluated by variation of the level serum tryptase l expressed in μg / L.

  2. Difference on skin mast cell burden - mast cells/mm² [12 month]

    The difference on mast cell burden between the start of treatment and 12 months later will be assessed by variation of the number of mast cells / mm² identified on the skin biopsies.

  3. Difference of mast cell activation symptoms : diarrhea [12 month]

    The difference of diarrhea between the start of treatment and 12 months later evaluated by the absolute number of stools / day for diarrhea

  4. Difference of mast cell activation symptoms : pollakiuria [12 month]

    The difference of pollakiuria between the start of treatment and 12 months later assessed by the absolute number of urinations / day for pollakiuria.

  5. Difference of mast cell activation symptoms : arthralgia [12 month]

    The difference of arthralgia between the start of treatment and 12 months later evaluated by the absolute number of painful joints / day and the intensity of joint pain assessed by the visual analogue scale from 0 to 10 for arthralgia.

  6. Difference of mast cell activation symptoms : discomfort [12 month]

    The difference of discomfort between the start of treatment and 12 months later evaluated by the absolute number of faintness / week

  7. The safety of hydroxychloroquine treatment. [12 month]

    The safety of hydroxychloroquine treatment will be done by evaluation of adverse events

  8. effectiveness of treatment [12 month]

    The correlation between the efficacy of treatment with the hydroxychloroquine and level of serum HCQ will be performed by the Bland-Altman test.
