Design | Prospective, open-label, multicentre phase II trial |
Primary Objective(s) | Safety and feasibility of autologous peripheral stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) early during the course of the disease. |
Secondary Objective(s) | Safety, feasibility, efficacy of Dexa-BEAM mobilization; efficacy of ex-vivo graft purging; incidence of complete clinical and molecular remissions; progression-free survival |
Study Population | B-CLL, Binet-Stage C and B or Binet A at high risk for disease progression; max. 1 prior chemotherapy, prior chemotherapy/ies < 6 months, no Dexa-BEAM Age ≥ 18 to ≤ 60 years |
Treatment | 1. Cytoreductive treatment: (preferentially) FC (2-4 cycles) 2. Mobilization: Dexa-BEAM + G-CSF (1-2 cycles) 3. Myeloablation: fractionated TBI (e.g. 6x2Gy) + Cyclophosphamide (2 x 60 mg/kg; d -4 to -3) 4. autologous PBSCT (d 0) |
Patients recruited | 216 patients (169 evaluable patients) |
