Plerixafor Rescue Mobilization For Autologous Stem Cell Transplant Patients With Inadequate Response to G-CSF
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating G-CSF plus Plerixafor for Multiple Myeloma and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 21 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Plerixafor, administered at a dose of 240 ug/kg, potentiates the effect of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to increase peripheral blood progenitor cells in both healthy volunteers and cancer patients. Furthermore, in cancer patients, cells collected via apheresis using Plerixafor and G-CSF have been successfully transplanted. In December 2008, Plerixafor received approval from the Food and Drug administration for use in combination with G-CSF to aid in mobilization of progenitor cells for apheresis. The proposed study is not designed to support approval of a new indication or change in the advertising for Plerixafor. The route of administration and dosage level are identical to that which is listed on the package insert. Although Plerixafor is not approved for patients with Hodgkins Lymphoma, there is no known or theoretic increased risk of the use of this drug in this patient population. The study hypothesis for this study is that patients with a circulating CD34+ count \< 20 cells/ul after 5 days of mobilization with G-CSF alone will achieve \> or equal to 2 X 10(6)CD34+ cells/kg within 3 days of apheresis after receiving Plerixafor with G-CSF.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
On Day 5 of G-CSF mobilization, 1. if the patient's peripheral CD34+ cell count is \< 7cells/µl then 240ug/kg Plerixafor will be given in the evening prior to receiving 10µg/kg G-CSF and undergoing apheresis the next morning for up to 3 days of apheresis or until ≥ 5x10(6) cells/kg are collected. 2. if the patient's peripheral CD34+ cell count is 7 to 19 cells/ul (inclusive), apheresis will be done. If the apheresis yield is \< 1.3x10(6) CD34+ cells/kg then 240ug/kg Plerixafor will be given in the evening prior to receiving 10 µg/kg G-CSF and undergoing apheresis the next morning. If the apheresis yield is at least double that on Day 5, Plerixafor followed the next morning by G-CSF and apheresis will be repeated for up to a total of 3 days of apheresis or until 5x10(6) cells/kg are collected.
