About this study

Official title: A Phase II Multicenter Study on the Treatment of Adult de Novo Philadelphia Chromosome Positive (Ph+) Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) With the Protein Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor BMS-354825. EudraCT Number 2005-005107-42.

The primary objective of the trial is to estimate the activity of BMS-354825 (Dasatinib) in de novo adult Ph+ ALL patients in terms of hematological complete remission (HCR) rate.

Read the detailed description

This open label phase II study of Dasatinib will enroll adult de novo Ph+ ALL patients. A minimum of 48 cases will be required to complete the study. Accrual is expected to be completed in 18 months. The study will be considered completed for patients in HCR after completion of a total of 12 weeks of treatment. After completion patients will go off study and will be treated according to the best treatment option for Ph+ ALL patients in 1st HCR. The enrollment in the post-remissional phase of the current GIMEMA LAL protocol will be suggested.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of Hematological Complete Remission (HCR) Obtained During the BMS Induction Treatment Within Day +85 From the Start of BMS (i.e., Whenever Achieved From the Start of the Experimental Drug).

    Measured: End of the study, up to day 85

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. The Incidence of Grade >2 CTC-NCI Side Effects and Toxicities;

    Measured: End of study

  2. The Best Cytogenetic Response Obtained During BMS Treatment Within Day +85, Whenever Achieved From the Start of the Experimental Drug;

    Measured: End of study

  3. the Best Molecular Response Obtained During BMS Treatment Within Day +85, Whenever Achieved From the Start of the Experimental Drug;

    Measured: End of study

  4. DFS, Defined as the Time Interval Between the Evaluation of HCR and Hematological Relapse of the Disease or Death in First HCR;

    Measured: End of study

  5. the Cumulative Incidence of Relapse;

    Measured: End of study

  6. OS, Defined as the Time Interval Between Inclusion and Death for Any Cause.

    Measured: End of study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Dasatinib in people with Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Acute, run by Gruppo Italiano Malattie EMatologiche dell'Adulto at 36 sites in Italy.

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 14 inclusion and 14 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 4 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 sites in Italy. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 26 Jan 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Rate of Hematological Complete Remission (HCR) Obtained During the BMS Induction Treatment Within Day +85 From the Start of BMS (i.e., Whenever Achieved From the Start of the Experimental Drug). (time frame: End of the study, up to day 85). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00391989, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 4 Jan 2017.
