Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • AML patients either after first relapse or at diagnosis a) with high-risk cytogenetics such as -7, -5, +8, chromosome 9 or 11 abnormality, or b) WBC > 50,000, or c) age > 60 years*.
  • AML patients are eligible for cell collection if they have > 1000 circulating blasts/mm at diagnosis.
  • CML patients in myeloid blast crisis with > 1000 circulating blasts/mm.
  • Creatinine <2, Bilirubin <3.
  • Age >18.

Who cannot join

  • Factors which would prevent the patient from receiving or cooperating with the full course of therapy or understanding the informed consent procedure.
  • Concurrent or expected need for therapy with corticosteroids.
  • Positive antibody to human immunodeficiency virus I.
  • Acute promyelocytic Leukemia (FAB-M3).
  • History of overt cardiac failure, systemic autoimmune disease or expected need for steroid therapy.
  • Patients >60 will be eligible for study but if found to have good prognosis cytogenetics (inversion (16) or t(8;21)) will subsequently be withdrawn from study and treated off protocol without infusion of autologous leukemia derived cells.

About this study

  1. Determine the feasibility of generation of autologous Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML) or Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia in myeloid blast crisis (CML/BC) derived dendritic cell activated lymphocytes (DC/AL) in poor prognosis patients.
  2. Determine the toxicity of autologous leukemia derived dendritic cell activated lymphocytes (DC/AL) in patients with AML or CML/BC.
  3. Quantitate circulating immune effector cells in patients after infusion of DC/AL.
  4. Record the efficacy of AML or CML/BC derived dendritic cells and activated lymphocytes in promoting and sustaining remission in patients with AML or CML/BC.
Read the detailed description

Most patients relapsing with AML either fail to achieve second remission or have only brief remissions. Patients more than 60 years of age or having histories of antecedent hematological disorders, prior chemotherapy, or poor risk cytogenetics have generally only short remissions and as a group have two year survivals of less than 10%. Equally patients with myeloid blast crisis of CML often fail to achieve remission or have responses of only brief duration. Laboratory studies have shown that AML leukemic blasts may be induced in culture to differentiate into dendritic cells which in turn may be used activate autologous lymphocytes to acquire leukemia specific cytotoxicity. This trial will assess the feasibility of generation of dendritic cell activated lymphocytes, and toxicity and efficacy of these activated cells given after reinduction chemotherapy. Before this study begins some toxicity information will have been generated in a trial of similar cells given to CML patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Dendritic Cell Activated Lymphocyte in people with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia and Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Oct 2018. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

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 25 Oct 2018.
