Denosumab for Prevention of Bone Complications After Bone Marrow Transplantation in Children

NCT02677246 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2018-09-06

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Children treated by bone marrow transplantation (BMT) experience bone toxicity. Those bone damages are caused by both a decrease of bone formation and an increase of bone destruction after BMT.For long term survivors, bone complications are major determinants of impaired quality of life. No standard treatment currently exists to prevent those bone injuries. Denosumab is a treatment which specifically blocks bone destruction for 4 to 6 months in adults. This trial will study whether it is safe to prescribe Denosumab to children after BMT in the aim of preventing bone complications.

Conditions

  • Disorder Related to Bone Marrow Transplantation

Interventions

DRUG

Denosumab

Denosumab, one sub-cutaneous infusion, given within 2 weeks after engraftment defined as neutrophils \> 0,5x10(9)/L and chimerism ≥ 10% of donor origin. Before starting Denosumab several requirements have to be met: 1) Calcemia and Phosphatemia in the normal ranges, 2) adequate Calcium and Vitamin D intakes according to age. Biological activity of Denosumab measured by CTX blood level, expected to last for 4 to 6 months after one infusion. Possibility of subsequent infusions at the same dose level, every 5 to 6 months, for patient remaining on corticotherapy, provided no DLT occurred and provided CTX blood level decreased under the required threshold, after the previous infusions of Denosumab
