About this study

Official title: A Phase Ib, Dose-finding Study of Oral Panobinostat (LBH589) in Combination With Idarubicin and Cytarabine Induction and High-dose Cytarabine-based Consolidation Therapy in Adult Patients Less Than or Equal to 65 Years Old With Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)

This study will be conducted to assess the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of panobinostat given 3 times a week (administered on weeks 2 and 3 of a 4 week cycle) in combination with induction chemotherapy (idarubicin and cytarabine) in newly diagnosed patients with a cytopathologically confirmed diagnosis of high-risk AML, and to investigate the safety of the combination in this regimen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Define the maximum tolerated dose of Panobinostat (LBH589) that can be given with standard idarubicin and ara-C chemotherapy measured by safety and tolerability.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To determine the number of patients who have safety and tolerability events

    Measured: 1 year

  2. To determine Panobinostat's pharmacokinetic parameters (study the amount of Panobinostat in a person's blood over time) following study treatments

    Measured: 1 year

  3. To determine the response of Panobinostat (LBH589) given with standard idarubicin and ara-C chemotherapy (as defined by Cheson 2003)

    Measured: 1 year

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 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.

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?

Define the maximum tolerated dose of Panobinostat (LBH589) that can be given with standard idarubicin and ara-C chemotherapy measured by safety and tolerability. (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT01242774, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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.
