Reduced IV Fluids to Improve Clearance of HDMTX in Children w/Lymphoma or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

February 8, 2024 updated by: Virginia Commonwealth University

Pilot Study on the Reduced Intravenous Fluids to Improve Clearance of High-Dose Methotrexate (HDMTX) in Children With Lymphoma or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

To determine whether a reduced volume hydration regimen will lead to a shorter time to methotrexate clearance when compared to a standard intravenous (IV) hydration regimen.

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

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

This study uses a prospective randomized controlled crossover study design. Neither patients nor clinicians are blinded to the standard versus reduced intravenous fluids (IVF) regimen. Patients are randomized to begin with standard volume or reduced volume IVF. Over the course of 4 cycles of High Dose Methotrexate (HDMTX), patients alternate between standard and reduced volume post hydration fluids protocols.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

1 year to 17 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

  • Creatinine clearance ≥ 65 mL/min by modified Schwartz equation
  • Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine)
  • Lactating female patients must agree not to nurse a child while on this trial
  • All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must provide written informed consent, with assent provided if applicable

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Active Comparator: Standard Hydration Regimen

Drug: Intravenous fluids
Administration of post HDMTX intravenous fluids (IVF)
Experimental: Reduced hydration regimen
The reduced intravenous fluid (IVF) protocol, post HDMTX IVF will be initiated at 62.5 mL/m2/hr following completion of HDMTX infusion.
Drug: Intravenous fluids
Administration of post HDMTX intravenous fluids (IVF)

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
Time elapsed (in hours) from end of HDMTX to a serum methotrexate level <0.1 micromol/L
Time Frame: 63 Days
To determine whether a reduced volume hydration regimen will lead to a shorter time to methotrexate clearance when compared to a standard IV hydration regimen by measuring serum methotrexate levels twenty-four hours following the end of the high dose methotrexate ( HDMTX) infusion, and continuing every twelve hours until the methotrexate level is less than 0.1 micromol/L.
63 Days

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
Markers of kidney toxicity
Time Frame: 84 Days
To determine the effect of a reduced volume hydration regimen on markers of kidney toxicity (nephrotoxicity) by evaluating serum creatinine levels from baseline levels as well as the maximum decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) utilizing the modified Schwartz equation, following each HDMTX cycle.
84 Days
Markers of fluid overload
Time Frame: 84 Days
To determine the effect of a reduced volume hydration regimen on markers of fluid overload by evaluating maximum weight gain during each hospitalization, and by evaluating the incidence of NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version v5.0 ≥ grade 1 clinical sequelae of hydration such as facial edema, pulmonary edema, abdominal distension, extremity edema, and weight gain.
84 Days
Effects on therapy delays
Time Frame: 84 Days
To examine the effects of a reduced volume hydration regimen on treatment schedule by measuring the number of days subsequent therapy is delayed for reasons other than scheduling issues or preferences.
84 Days
Effects on development of severe mucositis
Time Frame: 84 Days
To examine the effects of a reduced volume hydration regimen on development of severe mucositis by measuring the incidence of grade ≥ 3 (CTCAE v5.0) mucositis.
