A Randomized, Comparative, Double-blind Trial of Pentaisomaltose and Dimethyl Sulphoxide for Cryoprotection of Hematopoietic Stem Cells in Subjects With Multiple Myeloma or Malignant Lymphoma With a Need for Autologous Transplantation

Study Purpose

A randomized, comparative, double-blind trial of pentaisomaltose and dimethyl sulphoxide for cryoprotection of hematopoietic stem cells in subjects with multiple myeloma or malignant lymphoma with a need for autologous transplantation

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Men or women ≥ 18 years.
  • - Multiple myeloma or malignant lymphoma diagnosis in which ASCT is indicated according to the standard procedures at the hospital.
  • - Willing to be hospitalized for minimum 24 hours after the ASCT.
  • - Willingness to participate and signing the ICF.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Multiple myeloma or lymphoma invasion of the central nervous system.
  • - Previous treatment with ASCT.
  • - Severe infection.
  • - Unsuitable for apheresis.
  • - Unable to provide ≥3 bags with a cell concentration ≥2.0×106 CD34+ cells/kg bodyweight per bag during apheresis.
  • - Pregnant or nursing women.
To avoid pregnancy, women of childbearing potential have to use adequate contraception (e.g., intrauterine devices, hormonal contraceptives, or double barrier method) during the whole trial period and up to 1 year after the last ASCT.
  • - Men, even if surgically sterilized, (i.e., status post vasectomy), who do not agree to practice effective barrier contraception during the entire trial period and through 6 months after the last ASCT, or agrees to completely abstain from heterosexual intercourse.
- Any other medical condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, will put the subject's disease management at risk or may result in the subject being unable to comply with the trial requirements

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05545202
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

The trial is a randomized, comparative, double-blind trial comparing the efficacy and safety of pentaisomaltose (PentaHibe®, Pharmacosmos A/S, Holbæk; termed PIM in the following) and dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), when used for preservation of harvested hematopoietic stem cells. Approximately 150 subjects with a diagnosis of multiple myeloma or malignant lymphoma (a minimum of 30 % of each diagnosis and an equal distribution in each preservation group) and undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) will be included. The subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive ASCT preserved in the following cryo-protective agent (CPA): - A: PIM 16 % - B: DMSO 10 %

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Other: A: Pentaisomaltose 16 %

Pentaisomaltose 40 % sterile solution; 40 mL will be transferred to a total volume of 100 mL, so the final concentration is 16 %.

Active Comparator: B: DMSO 10 %

Comparator: DMSO 99.9 % sterile solution; 10 mL will be transferred to a total volume of 100 mL, so the final concentration is 10 %.

Interventions

Other: - Pentaisomaltose

Each subject will receive 1 or 2 bags with cryopreserved cells according to randomization group.
