cGA in Newly-diagnosed Elderly MM Patients: a Multi-center, Prospective, Non-interventional Study.

April 23, 2017 updated by: Jian Li, Peking Union Medical College Hospital

Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (cGA) in Newly-diagnosed Elderly Multiple Myeloma (MM) Patients: a Multi-center, Prospective, Non-interventional Study.

This is a multi-center, prospective, non-interventional study. Eligible newly diagnosed elderly multiple myeloma (MM) patients will receive comprehensive geriatric assessment (cGA) including ECOG scale, questionaires of ADL（activities of daily living), IADL(instrumental ADL),MNA-SF(mini-nutritional assessment), GDS(geriatric depression scale), MMSE(mini-mental state examination), SF-36 and CCI (charlson comorbidity index). Patients will get standard care for MM and receive the above assessments at baseline and after cycle 1, 4 and 12 for treating MM.Follow-up information and survival data of these MM patients would be collected. We would evaluate the cGA status of these newly diagnosed elderly MM patients and investigate the association of cGA parameters with patient's survival.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Baseline: ECOG, ADL, IADL, MNA-SF, GDS, MMSE, SF-36 and CCI; After cycle 1: ECOG,ADL,IADL,GDS and SF-36 After cycle 4: ECOG,ADL,IADL,GDS, MNA-SF and SF-36 After cycle 12: ECOG,ADL,IADL,GDS, MNA-SF and SF-36

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

65 years and older (Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Newly diagnosed MM patients
newly diagnosed MM patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria for this study
Other: Questionaires
Questionaires of cGA assessment. No other interventions would be carried out aside from the standard treatment for MM.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Current status of cGA in newly diagnosed elderly MM patients
Time Frame: 12 cycles of MM treatment (about 12 months) after the last patient begins treatment
Description of the cGA (comprehensive geriatric assessment) status of the target population which is currently not known in China. The cGA parameters to be described include baseline ECOG, ADL（activities of daily living), IADL(instrumental ADL),MNA-SF(mini-nutritional assessment), GDS(geriatric depression scale), MMSE(mini-mental state examination), SF-36 and CCI (charlson comorbidity index) which would be carried out by trained physicians. The physicians would receive standard training from geriatricians of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Moreover, as the treatment for MM (multiple myeloma) patients continues, re-evaluation of the cGA parameters would be done. The status of ECOG, ADL, IADL, GDS, SF-36 would be re-evaluated after cycle 1, 4, 12 of MM treatment. And MNA-SF scale would be re-assessed after cycle 4 and 12 of MM treatment. A description of the changes of the above scales would also be recorded for these MM patients.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Association between the baseline cGA parameters and patients' overall survival
Time Frame: 5 years after the last patient begins treatment for MM
To evaluate the association of the baseline cGA parameters (including ECOG, ADL, IADL,MNA-SF, GDS, MMSE, SF-36 and CCI ) and patient's overall survival
5 years after the last patient begins treatment for MM
Association between baseline cGA parameters and patients' progression free survival
Time Frame: 5 years after the last patient begins treatment for MM
To evaluate the association of cGA parameters (including ECOG, ADL, IADL,MNA-SF, GDS, MMSE, SF-36 and CCI ) and patient's progression free survival
5 years after the last patient begins treatment for MM

Study Start (Anticipated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
