Non Interventional German Leptomeningeal Disease Register

Study Purpose

The planned multicenter register is intended to create a database in the form of a cancer register on the incidence and course of disease in Germany of leptomeningeal disease, the therapeutic measures administered in the real world and the complications.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT06146010
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This register is multicenter project in Germany. All patients eligible for this register are informed in detail about the register verbally and in writing by the treating and documenting physicians. The written declaration of consent is attached to the patient information form. A patient will only be included in this register once the written declaration of consent has been provided by the patient or their legal guardian. Patient information and the obtaining of consent forms are carried out by the treating medical colleagues. The register's data sources are the diagnostic findings made at the center and doctors' letters from routine clinical practice. The participating sites carry out the assessment of the participants' performance status so that the patients do not have to complete any study-related questionnaires. There is no intervention in this trial: neither changes to medication nor interventions on the patient themselves are carried out. Invasive measures are not carried out and there is no health risk associated with participation. Within the project, only the occurrence and severity of a neoplastic central nervous system infestation as well as the respective therapeutic measures and their results are documented. Planned start of register: Quarter 1 2024 Expected end of register: Quarter 4 2029. Once the patient or their legal guardian has given written consent, a patient will be included in the German Meningeosis neoplastica Register. Due to the rapid course of the disease and potential rapid deterioration, the documentation of the course of the disease of the individual patients is to be carried out retrospectively from the clinical routine data recorded during the course of the study for the entire duration of the study or until the death of the participating patients after the written consent of the patients. There is no minimum or maximum number of patients to be enrolled in this trial. Only descriptive analyses are planned for the data documented in the register. In accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki/Tokyo/Venice/Hong Kong, all patients have the right to discontinue their participation in the register at any time and without giving reasons, without losing their right to further treatment or experiencing disadvantages of any other kind as a result. The data is pseudonymized and can be decrypted using the separately maintained key list. If a patient subsequently withdraws their consent to participate and requests that the data be deleted, this can be done after decryption using the key list. As this is a pure register study without study intervention, there are no plans to discontinue the entire study.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: german leptomeningeal disease register

The aim of the leptomeningeal disease register is to establish an internet-based cancer register in which patients with leptomeningeal disease are recorded at the time of diagnosis and after appropriate information and consent to data collection. Due to the rapid progression of the disease and potential rapid deterioration, inclusion must take place at the time of diagnosis. The course of the disease in individual patients is then documented retrospectively on the basis of routine clinical care data for the entire duration of the study or until the death of the participating patients.

Interventions

Other: - No intervention

Once the patient or their legal guardian has given their written consent, a patient is included in the leptomeningeal disease register. Due to the rapid course of the disease and potential rapid deterioration, the documentation of the course of the disease of the individual patients is to be carried out retrospectively from the data recorded during the course of the clinical routine for the entire duration of the study or until the death of the participating patients after the written consent of the patients. The registry's data sources are the diagnostic findings made at the center and doctors' letters from routine clinical practice. The participating centers carry out the assessment of the participants' performance status so that the patients do not have to complete any study-related questionnaires.
