Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Group A--Thiotepa single doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Fully matched 10/10 subjects with lower risk of graft failure. Subjects will undergo 10/10 HLA (human leukocyte antigen) matched bone marrow and peripheral blood transplant. Subjects receive combination of single daily dose thiotepa (5 mg/kg) added to the backbone of targeted reduced dose IV busulfan, fludarabine and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG).
Group II: Group A--Thiotepa escalated doseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Fully matched 10/10 subjects with lower risk of graft failure. Subjects will undergo 10/10 HLA (human leukocyte antigen) matched bone marrow and peripheral blood transplant. Subjects receive combination of escalated dose of thiotepa (10 mg/kg) added to the backbone of targeted reduced dose IV busulfan, fludarabine and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG).
Group III: Group B--Thiotepa escalated doseActive Control1 Intervention
Subjects with higher risk of graft failure. Subjects will undergo transplant with <10/10 bone marrow or peripheral blood match, or receiving cord blood transplant. Subjects receive combination of escalated dose of thiotepa (10 mg/kg)added to the backbone of targeted reduced dose IV busulfan, fludarabine and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG).
Group IV: Group B--Thiotepa single doseActive Control1 Intervention
Subjects with higher risk of graft failure. Subjects will undergo transplant with <10/10 bone marrow or peripheral blood match, or receiving cord blood transplant. Subjects receive combination of single daily dose thiotepa (5 mg/kg) added to the backbone of targeted reduced dose IV busulfan, fludarabine and rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG).

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What is Thiotepa--escalated dose most frequently used to treat?

"Thiotepa can be used to fight cancer, malignant effusion, and urinary bladder at an escalated dose."

Answered by AI

Does this research break new ground in the medical field?

"Thiotepa--escalated dose has been studied since 2002. The very first trial was completed in 2002 and was sponsored by Schering-Plough. Following the first study in 2002, which involved 60 patients, Thiotepa--escalated dose received its Phase 2 drug approval. Today there are 61 active trials for Thiotepa--escalated dose across 223 cities and 38 countries."

Answered by AI

Is the age limit for this research project set at 18 years old or younger?

"Children aged 3 months to 39 years old can enroll in this clinical trial. In total, there are 782 trials for people under 18 and 1532 trials for senior citizens."

Answered by AI

If I enroll in this study, what am I agreeing to?

"Eligibility for this particular clinical trial requires that patients are between 3 months and 39 years old, have bone marrow failure, and there are only six total spots available."

Answered by AI

How many people are enrolled in this clinical research project?

"This study is not currently searching for patients at this time. The clinical trial was first posted on 6/15/2018 and was most recently edited on 11/7/2022. If you are exploring for other studies, there are currently 2193 clinical trials actively searching for patients with bone marrow failure and 61 studies for Thiotepa--escalated dose actively recruiting patients."

Answered by AI

Are investigators looking for more test subjects?

"Unfortunately, this study is not enrolling new patients at this time. The trial was first posted on June 15th, 2018 and had its last update on November 7th, 2022. If you are seeking other studies, there are 2193 trials actively looking for patients with bone marrow failure and 61 studies that use Thiotepa--escalated dose actively recruiting patients."
