About this study

Official title: Eltrombopag for the Management of Thrombocytopenia Associated With Tyrosine Kinase Therapy in Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and Myelofibrosis (MF)

This phase II/III trial studies how well eltrombopag olamine works in treating thrombocytopenia in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia or myelofibrosis receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy. Eltrombopag olamine may cause the body to make platelets after receiving treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia or myelofibrosis.

Read the detailed description

The goal of this clinical research study is learn if eltrombopag can help control or prevent low platelet counts in patients receiving treatment for CML or myelofibrosis. This is an investigational study. Eltrombopag is FDA approved and commercially available for the treatment of patients with low platelet counts. The use of eltrombopag for the treatment of low platelet counts in patients with CML and myelofibrosis is investigational. Eltrombopag will be provided at no cost to you during the study.

If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will receive eltrombopag by mouth 1 time a day. Your dose may be increased every 2 weeks depending on your platelet count response. You should take eltrombopag on an empty stomach. You should not eat for 2 hours before taking eltrombopag. You should wait at least 4 hours between taking eltrombopag and taking other drugs (like antacids), dairy products, juices with calcium added, or supplements containing iron, calcium, aluminum, magnesium, selenium, or zinc.

Up to 39 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson. As of June 6, 2017, the study is closed to new participants.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With a Platelet Response

    The primary endpoint is complete (platelet) response (yes/no). A complete (platelet) response will be defined as a sustained (3 months) platelet count of > 50 x 109/L for patients with CML and > 100 x 109/L for patients with MF and at least a 20% increase in platelet count from baseline.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Participants With a Response to TKI Therapy After Eltrombopag

    (CML) : Complete Hematologic Remission : Normalization for 4 weeks of the bone marrow (< 5% blasts) and peripheral blood with WBC within normal institutional limits with no blasts, promyelocytes or myelocytes, and basophils <5%,. Complete cytogenetic response: Ph positive 0%. Partial cytogenetic response: Ph positive 1-35%. Minor cytogenetic response: Ph positive 36-90%. No cytogenetic response: Ph positive 100%. Myelofibrosis : Complete Remission: absence of transfusion or growth factor support: complete resolution of disease-related symptoms/signs including palpable hepatosplenomegaly, hemoglobin > 11 g/dL, platelet count ≥100 x 10^9/L, absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.0 x 10^9/L. Normal leukocyte differential with disappearance of nucleated red blood cells and immature myeloid cells in peripheral smear, in the absence of splenectomy. Bone marrow histological remission:presence of age-adjusted normocellularity, < 5% myeloblast , osteomyelofibrosis grade </= 1.

    Measured: Up to 9 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Eltrombopag Olamine in people with Accelerated Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, BCR-ABL1 Positive and Blast Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia, BCR-ABL1 Positive, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 6 inclusion and 12 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 26 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 1 Feb 2023). 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?

Number of Participants With a Platelet Response (time frame: Up to 9 years). 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 26 Sep 2023.
