Treatment of acute graft-versus-host disease after allogeneic stem cell transplantation with placenta derived decidua stroma cells (DSC) compared with best available treatment (BAT).

A multicenter, open-label, randomized, phase I/II clinical trial comparing safety and durable overall response rate (DOR) at 56 days in patients with steroid resistant severe acute GvHD after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation treated with decidua stromal cells (DSC) or best available treatment (BAT) - Safety Trial, DSC vs. BAT in SR acute GvHD

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: •Assess the Safety of DSC. •Durable Overall Response (DOR) at Day 56. ;Secondary Objective: •To assess Overall Response Rate at day 28 (ORR) •To assess 1-year Overall Survival (OS) •To assess 1-year Non-Relapse Mortality (NRM) •To assess incidence of infections Exploratory objectives •To assess the cumulative steroid dose until Day 56 and Day 90 •To assess Event-Free Survival (EFS) •To assess incidence of Malignancy Relapse/Progression (MR) •To assess the incidence of cGvHD ;Primary end point(s): Documenting AEs and SAEs and determining causality in relation to DSC. Causality of AEs and SAEs will be assessed by the investigator. Durable Overall response rate (DOR) at Day 56 after randomization, defined as the proportion of patients in each arm demonstrating a durable complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) between day 28 and day 56, without requirement for additional systemic therapies for an earlier progression, mixed response or nonresponse.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: day 56

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1. Proportion of patients in each arm who achieve a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) at Day 28. 2. Overall survival (OS), defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause. 3. Non-relapse mortality (NRM), defined as the time from date of randomization to death not preceded by hematologic disease relapse/progression. 4. Proportion of patients in each treatment arm who develop infections or other transplant related complications. 5. Safety and tolerability including myelosuppression, infections and bleeding will be assessed by monitoring the frequency, duration and severity of Adverse Events including occurrence of any secondary malignancies, infections, by performing physical exams and evaluating changes in vital signs from baseline, routine serum chemistry, hematology results and coagulation profile. 6. Weekly cumulative steroid dose for each patient up to Day 56 and Day 90 or end of treatment will be calculated. 7. Event-free survival, defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of hematologic disease relapse/ progression, graft failure or death due to any cause. 8. Malignancy relapse/progression (MR), defined as the time from date of randomization to hematologic malignancy relapse or progression. Calculated for patients with underlying hematologic malignant disease. 9. Chronic GvHD, defined as the diagnosis of any cGvHD including mild, moderate and severe according to NIH criteria. (see Appendix 3) 10. Changes in immune reconstitution after aGvHD per randomization arm. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year
