  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with morphologically confirmed diagnosis of relapsed AML with French-American-British (FAB) classification other than M3. Relapse should be demonstrated by the presence of greater than 5% leukemic blasts in the bone marrow or reappearance of greater than 5% leukemic blasts in the peripheral blood within 14 days of registration.
  • Eligible patients include the following:
  • Patients with secondary AML, including patients with prior myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)
  • Patients who were initially unresponsive to induction therapy
  • Patients in first or second relapse from prior therapy or hematopoietic stem-cell transplant (HSCT)
  • A period of at least 21 days must have elapsed from the completion of prior chemotherapy (with or without anthracyclines) and investigational agents to the first dose of treatment in this study, and all acute toxicities from prior therapy must have resolved (with the exception of alopecia).

  • Age >/= 18 years of age, and able to give informed consent.
  • ECOG performance status of 0, 1 or 2.
  • Bilirubin < 1.5 x institution's upper limit of normal (ULN), AST and ALT < 1.5 x institution's ULN, creatinine < 2 mg/dL.
  • LVEF >/= 50% as measured by MUGA scan or 2-D ECHO within 14 days prior to registration. Either method is acceptable for measuring LVEF; however, the same method must be used throughout treatment and follow-up.
  • Patients (male or female) of reproductive potential must commit to use adequate contraception (as defined by the investigator) during study treatment and for 6 months after the last day of study drug administration.
  • Patients must have signed an approved informed consent prior to beginning protocol specific procedures

Who cannot join

  • Prior treatment with a cumulative dose of doxorubicin or equivalent exceeding 450 mg/m2 according to the following calculation index: X/450 + Y/160 < 1 where X is the doxorubicin dose in mg/m2 and Y is the mitoxantrone dose in mg/m2.
  • Clinical or documented central nervous system (CNS) involvement with AML.
  • Any uncontrolled active infection that requires antibiotics.
  • History of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
  • Acute hepatitis, or known chronic hepatitis.
  • Unstable cardiovascular conditions, including: cardiac arrhythmias, angina, or myocardial infarction within the past 6 months.

  • Pregnant women or nursing mothers.
  • Prior malignancy except: curatively treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, in situ cervical cancer, adequately treated stage I or II cancer from which the patient is currently in remission, or any other cancer from which the patient has been disease-free for 5 years.
  • Any condition which, in the judgment of the investigator, would place the patient at undue risk, interfere with the results of the study, or make the patient otherwise unsuitable.
  • Any circumstance at the time of study entry that would preclude completion of the study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Study of Pixantrone (BBR 2778) in Patients With Refractory Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)

The goal of this study is to find the safest dose of Pixantrone (BBR 2778) that can be given to patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML). After the safest dose is found, up to an additional 86 patients will be enrolled. During this part of the study, the safety and effectiveness will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

This is an open label, single center, phase I/II study of pixantrone in patients with refractory AML. Pixantrone will be administered for three consecutive days on days 1, 2 and 3 of each 21-day cycle, for up to two cycles.

The study has 2 parts; phase I and phase II. In the phase I part of the study, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for pixantrone as a single agent in patients with refractory AML will be determined. In the phase II part of the study, up to an additional 86 patients will be treated at the MTD to assess disease response.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Pixantrone IV infusion in people with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, run by CTI BioPharma at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 10 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 18 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Phase I: To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Pixantrone (BBR 2778) in patients with refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Sep 2023.
