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

Who may be able to join

  • Diagnosis of untreated "high-risk" MDS (>= 10% blasts) or AML other than acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t(15;17)(q22;q12) or variants according to the 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) classification; patients with biphenotypic AML are eligible; outside diagnostic material is acceptable as long as peripheral blood and/or bone marrow slides are reviewed at the study institution and cytogenetic/molecular information is available
  • Prior hydroxyurea for AML is permitted but should be discontinued prior to start of CPX-351 treatment

About this study

Official title: Liposomal Cytarabine and Daunorubicin (CPX-351) for Adults With Untreated High-Risk MDS and Non-APL AML at High Risk of Treatment-Related Mortality

This randomized clinical trial studies liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 in treating patients with untreated myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Estimate whether the 32 units/m^2 or the 64 units/m^2 or both dose levels of CPX-351 (liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351) are likely to improve treatment-related mortality (TRM) rate while keeping the complete remission (CR) rate constant in patients with untreated high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at high risk of TRM.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Describe the CR/CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp) rate after up to 4 cycles of induction/re-induction therapy.

II. Describe the event-free survival, disease-free survival, and overall survival of patients who achieve CR/CRp.

III. Estimate the frequency and severity of regimen-associated toxicities.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

ARM I:

INDUCTION/RE-INDUCTION: Patients receive lower-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 intravenously (IV) over 90 minutes on days 1, 3, and 5. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CR or CRp continue on to consolidation.

CONSOLIDATION: Patients receive lower-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 3. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM II: (closed to accrual effective 4/21/14) INDUCTION/RE-INDUCTION: Patients receive higher-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over 90 minutes on days 1, 3, and 5. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CR or CRp continue on to consolidation.

CONSOLIDATION: Patients receive higher-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 3. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1 month.

What is being measured

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

  1. Treatment-related Mortality Rate. (TRM)

    Estimate whether the 32 units/m2 or the 64 units/m2 or both dose levels of CPX-351 are likely to improve treatment-related mortality (TRM) rate while keeping the CR rate constant in patients with untreated high-risk MDS or non-APL AML at high risk of TRM.

    Measured: Up to 1 month after completion of study treatment

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall Remission Rate (CR+CRp)

    Overall Remission Rate for the CR/CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp) rate after up to 4 cycles of induction/re-induction therapy.

    Measured: Up to day 28

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Laboratory Biomarker Analysis and Liposomal Cytarabine-Daunorubicin CPX-351 in people with Acute Biphenotypic Leukemia and Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 2 sites 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 9 inclusion and 3 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 25 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 25 May 2018). 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?

Treatment-related Mortality Rate. (TRM) (time frame: Up to 1 month after completion of study treatment). 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 25 May 2018.
