Trial Outcomes & Findings for High-Dose Immunosuppression and Autologous Transplantation for Multiple Sclerosis (HALT MS) Study (NCT NCT00288626)

NCT ID: NCT00288626

Last Updated: 2017-09-19

Results Overview

Event-free survival (EFS) is survival without death or disease activity from any one of the following criteria: 1) loss of neurological function, defined as a change in pretransplant Extended Disability Status Scale (EDSS) of \> 0.5. 2) Relapse, defined as the development of a new neurological sign and corresponding symptom, or worsening of an existing neurological sign and symptom, localized to central nervous system white matter, resulting in neurological deficit/disability, and lasting over 48 hours. 3) New lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), defined as presence of 2 or more independent multiple sclerosis brain lesions detected on MRI 1 year or more after stem cell transplant. Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival probability, with 90% confidence interval based on Greenwood's formula for standard error.

Measure
HDIT and HCT
Participants recv'd Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) by injection for 4-5 days to increase the number of blood stem cells in the blood stream by mobilizing them from the bone marrow. Leukapheresis was performed until ≥ 2.0 x 10\^6 CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) per kg were collected and frozen for future use. After ≥7 days following the last G-CSF dose, patients were hospitalized and received high-dose immunosuppression (HDIT) and immunosuppressive agent thymoglobulin 2.5 mg/kg over the course of 6 days. HDIT consisted of carmustine 300mg/m\^2, etoposide 200 mg/m\^2 cytarabine 200 mg/m\^2, and melphalan 140 mg/m\^2. CD34+ HPCs were thawed and infused according to institutional best practice for blood component transfusion over approximately 30 minutes. Patients were hospitalized until recovery of ANC to \> 500/uL for at least 2 days. Prednisone was administered (0.5 mg/kg/day) from Days 7 to 21 after HCT and tapered over 2 weeks to prevent engraftment syndrome.

Timeframe: From study entry to death, loss to follow-up, or the end of the study, whichever came first, up to 6 years

Population: Participants who received High-Dose Immunosuppressive Therapy (HDIT) and Autologous CD34+ Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HCT).

The probability that a participant did not experienced a treatment-related death estimated at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years following transplant via the Kaplan-Meier Method. Greenwood's formula for standard error was used to calculate 90% confidence intervals. Participants that did not experience a treatment-related death were censored at the time of last follow-up. A treatment-related death was defined as death that occurred at any time after study entry and that was possibly, probably, or definitely related to the cellular product or possibly, probably, or definitely related to mobilization of autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic progenitor cells with G-CSF and prednisone or to the high-dose immunosuppressive therapy. There were no treatment-related mortality events in the study.

MS progression is measured as number of days from transplant to first Kurtzke's Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) increase of more than 0.5 relative to the baseline measurement. EDSS assesses disability in Multiple Sclerosis patients. Eight functional systems are evaluated: visual, brain stem, pyramidal, cerebellar, sensory, bowel and bladder, cerebral, and ambulation. The overall score ranges from 0 (normal neurological exam) to 10 (death due to MS). Kaplan-Meier estimates of survival probability, with 90% confidence intervals based on Greenwood's formula for standard error.

Kurtzke's Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) assesses disability in Multiple Sclerosis patients. Eight functional systems are evaluated: visual, brain stem, pyramidal, cerebellar, sensory, bowel and bladder, cerebral, and ambulation. The overall score ranges from 0 (normal neurological exam) to 10 (death due to MS). Change from baseline was computed as the value at the time point minus the baseline value. A negative value in change from baseline indicates an improvement and a positive value indicates worsening. A change of \> 0.5 in EDSS was a treatment-failure criterion.

Measure
HDIT and HCT
n=25 participants at risk
Participants recv'd Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) by injection for 4-5 days to increase the number of blood stem cells in the blood stream by mobilizing them from the bone marrow. Leukapheresis was performed until \> 2.0 x 10\^6 CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) per kg were collected and frozen for future use. After ≥7 days following the last G-CSF dose, patients were hospitalized and received high-dose immunosuppression (HDIT) and immunosuppressive agent thymoglobulin 2.5 mg/kg over the course of 6 days. HDIT consisted of carmustine 300mg/m\^2, etoposide 200 mg/m\^2 cytarabine 200 mg/m\^2, and melphalan 140 mg/m\^2. CD34+ HPCs were thawed and infused according to institutional best practice for blood component transfusion over approximately 30 minutes. Patients were hospitalized until recovery of ANC to \> 500/uL for at least 2 days. Prednisone was administered (0.5 mg/kg/day) from Days 7 to 21 after HCT and tapered over 2 weeks to prevent engraftment syndrome.
