Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    Using plerixafor plus granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), is the yield of stem (CD34+) cells at least as good as can be obtained with conventional chemotherapy plus G-CSF?, and can this be accomplished in the same or fewer stem cell collections (known as aphereses)? Stated more formally, the primary study endpoint is a composite of BOTH an adequate stem cell harvest (at least 4 x 10 E6 CD34+ cells per kg body weight in no more than 2 aphereses) AND a neutrophil count that never falls below 1.0 x 10 E9 / Litre in the 3 weeks following initiation of mobilisation.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was a reduction in SoC medication. Patients were reviewed regularly for remission.
    Background therapy
    The daily dose of G-CSF is the same as used at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital (RLUH) for some years in chemotherapy containing stem cell mobilisation; 300 ug for patients weighing 60kg or less; 480 ug for patients over 60 kg but under 96 kg, and 600 ug for patients weighing 96 kg or more. This equates to a dose of at least 5 ug/kg (maximum 8 mg/kg) for all patients up to 120 kg. The daily dose of plerixafor is 240 ug/kg if the creatinine clearance is equal to or greater than 50mls/minute; if less than this then the dose is 160 ug/kg daily.
    Evidence for comparator
    Comparison will be made to an immediately preceding cohort of 200 eligible patients who were mobilised with chemotherapy plus G-CSF. This comparator population is suitable, since the case mix, G-CSF dose for harvesting and the transplant conditioning have not changed during the past few years nor are seen as likely to change during the course of the study

    Limitations and caveats

    Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data.
    Assessment of non serious adverse events is complicated by the fact that many patients undergoing leukapheresis report symptoms attributable to the toxicity of the citrate anticoagulant 11 had gastro intestinal symptoms, headache and insomnia
