- Registration Number
- NCT04935684
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to assess the Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) efficacy in the prevention of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) complications and particularly Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD).
The hypothesis of this study is that allogeneic FMT may improve outcomes of these patients.
- Detailed Description
The TMF-Allo study is a prospective, open-label, multi-center, parallel, randomized phase II clinical trial comparing a group patients with FMT and a control group of patients without FMT.
The main objective of this study is to assess the effect of allogeneic FMT versus no treatment on Graft-versus-host disease and Relapse-Free Survival (GRFS) at one year in adult patients treating with myelo-ablative allo-HSCT for haematologic malignancy.
The secondary objectives are to evaluate :
* Overall survival, progression-free survival at 1 and 2 years,
* The haematological evolution,
* The evolution of infections,
* The tolerance and safety of the TMF carried out in post-transplant,
* The evolution of the composition and diversity of the microbiota in allograft patients receiving TMF or not.

Group Intervention Description Group 1: Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) Fecal Microbiota Transplantation Patients randomized in the "FMT group" will received FMT. FMT product will be made by the the pharmacy of the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital from stools of healthy volunteer donors within 6 hours after defecation in order to preserve the viability of the bacteria. The preparation will be standardized: 50g aliquots will be prepared and diluted in 250mL of 0.9% NaCl containing 10% glycerol, until a homogeneous suspension is obtained. The preparation will be rapidly frozen at -80°C until use, with a maximum shelf life of 18 months.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Graft-versus-host disease and Relapse-Free Survival (GRFS) rate after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation GRFS is a composite endpoint of GvHD-free/relapse-free survival in which events include grade II-IV acute GvHD, moderate and severe chronic GvHD, relapse, or death in the first year post-HSCT. GRFS will be measured at one year after allo-HSCT and compared between both groups of patients.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Haematopoietic reconstitution At the time of haematopoietic reconstitution Haematopoietic reconstitution is assessed by: 1/ turnaround time of polynuclear neutrophils \>0.5.10\^9/L (first day within a period of three consecutive days); 2/ spontaneous platelet turnaround time \>20.10\^9/L (two days with no platelet transfusion within the previous three days); 3/ spontaneous platelet turnaround time \>50.10\^9/L (two days with no platelet transfusion within the previous three days); 4/ the number of transfusions of red blood cells and platelets between D0 and D100
Cumulative incidence of chronic GvHD At Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Chronic GvHD severity will be defined according to NIHCC criteria. It will be notified by specifying the location (liver, skin, gut ...), the severity score (II to IV), the treatment applied and the efficacy of treatment. GvHD occurrence will be notified every week until ungraftment, then monthly until D180 and at D270, D360, D540 and D720.
Transplant-Related Mortality At Day 180, Day 360 and Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Transplant-related mortality is defined as death due to causes unrelated to the underlying disease.
Analysis the intestinal microbiota in patients Before the conditioning regimen, before the FMT and at Day 30, Day 90 and Day 360 after white blood cells recovery The intestinal microbiota composition and diversity will be assessed by 16S-rRNA sequencing performed prospectively in all patients with FMT and without FMT.
Overall survival At Day 360 and Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Overall survival is defined as the time period between the date of randomization and the date of death, regardless of its cause.
Progression-free survival At Day 360 and Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Progression-free survival is defined as the time period between the date of randomization and the date of disease relapse or progression or death, regardless of its cause.
Engraftment rates At Day 30, Day 60, Day 90, Day 180, Day 360 and Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantationday Engraftment rates are evaluated by a chimerism measure (by molecular biology)
Cumulative incidence of acute GvHD At Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Acute GvHD severity is defined according to MAGIC criteria. It will be notified by specifying the location (liver, skin, gut ...), the severity score (II to IV), the treatment applied and the efficacy of treatment. GvHD occurrence will be notified every week until D30 (minimum) or until hospital discharge, then monthly until D180 and at D270, D360, D540 and D720.
Cumulative incidence of infections At Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Infectious complications will be notified every week up to day 30 (minimum) or until hospital discharge, then every month up to D180 and from D270 to D360, according to the existence of a documented bacteraemia, germ resistance, type and number of days of curative antibiotherapy used; the existence of a documented fungal infection and the type and number of days of curative antifungal treatment; the existence of a documented viral infection and the type and number of days of curative antiviral treatment; the need of an intensive care unit transfer due to an infectious complication.
Severe infections description From the day of inclusion to Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Severe infections will be defined according to GREFIG score : bactearemia with severe sepsis, complex bactearemia (with deep organ involvement), candidemia (at least one positive blood culture) with sepsis or deep infected site, proven or probable aspergillosis pneumonia, severe varicella-zoster virus infection (involvement of a deep organ or associated coagulopathy), any viral encephalitis, CMV infection with lung or digestive location, Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia, toxoplasmosis with involvement of organ or central nervous system, any acute pneumonia with PaO2 less than or equal to 65mmHg, any sepsis requiring transfer to an intensive care unit.
Quality of life assessment at Day -7, Day 30, Day 90, Day 180, Day 360 and Day 720 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation The quality of life will be auto-evaluated by the patients using a validated questionnaire: European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer- Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC-QLQ-C30). The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. Thus a high score for a functional scale represents a high / healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status / QoL represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale / item represents a high level of symptomatology / problems.
Impact of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) on multi-resistant bacteria, extended-spectrum beta-lactamases and Clostridium difficile infection At Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Impact of FMT on multi-resistant bacteria, extended-spectrum beta-lactamases and Clostridium difficile infection will be assessed by evaluation of persistence or disappearance of these pathogenic bacteria after FMT.
Unexpected event description that could be in relation with FMT of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) From the day of FMT to Day 360 after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Each unexpected event that could be in relation with FMT will be notified: abdominal pain, diarrhea, bacterial translocation or any adverse effect attributed to the enema.
