About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Study of CEP-701 in Patients With Refractory, Relapsed, or Poor Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia Expressing FLT-3 Activating Mutations

The purpose of this study is to determine the response rate of patients with refractory, relapsed or poor risk AML expressing FLT-3 activating mutations, when administered CEP-701 at a dosage of 60 mg 2 times a day.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label study of CEP-701 in patients with refractory, relapsed, or poor risk AML expressing FLT-3 activating mutations. Patients who meet eligibility criteria will be enrolled at a dosage of 60 mg orally 2 times a day for 28 days (1 cycle). Upon completion of cycle 1, the dosage may be increased to 80mg 2 times a day or decreased to 40 mg 2 times a day, dependent upon response to 60 mg dosage.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Blood Samples and/or bone marrow assessments for complete remission (CR), complete tumor clearance (CTC), or hematologic response (HR) from bone marrow

    Response rate of patients with refactory, relapsed, or poor risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) expressing Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT-3) activating mutations. CR is defined as presence of less than 5% myeloblasts in bone marrow with normalized peripheral blood cell counts. HR is defined as a 50% or more decrease in the absolute number of peripheral blast count or at least a 50% reduction in bone marrow blasts.

    Measured: 56 days

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of days to response

    Response as defined by CR, CTC, or HR.

    Measured: 56 Days

  2. Number of days to disease progression

    Response as defined by CR, CTC, or HR.

    Measured: 56 Days

  3. Levels of FLT-3 phosphorylation inhibition in vivo

    The degree of inhibition of FLT-3 autophosphorylation measured in ex vivo bioassay plasma samples

    Measured: 56 Days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing CEP-701 60mg, Cep-701 80mg and Cep-701 40mg in people with Leukemia, Myeloid, run by Cephalon.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Blood Samples and/or bone marrow assessments for complete remission (CR), complete tumor clearance (CTC), or hematologic response (HR) from bone marrow (time frame: 56 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Aug 2012.
