Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have a diagnosis of non-M3 AML (patients with M3 subtype are excluded); determination of the presence of cytogenetic abnormalities will be by standard cytogenetics +/- fluorescent-in-situ (FISH) studies; additional molecular analyses for nucleophosmin (NPM) mutation and fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 (flt3) internal tandem duplication will be obtained as a part of standard care by institutional procedures

  • Multi gated acquisition scan (MUGA) or echocardiogram with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) > 50%
  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test
  • No uncontrolled psychiatric illness that the principal investigator feels will compromise obtaining informed consent from a patient
  • Patient must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines; patients who do not provide informed consent will not be eligible for the study

Who cannot join

  • Any coexisting medical condition or medications precluding full compliance with any of the arms of the study
  • Allergies to any investigational drugs and/or to the chemotherapeutic agents
  • Allergies to any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)/salicylates (e.g., aspirin)

About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II Study of Nuclear Factor-kappa B (NF-κB) Inhibition During Induction Chemotherapy for Patients With Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

This randomized phase II trial studies how well choline magnesium trisalicylate with idarubicin and cytarabine works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as choline magnesium trisalicylate, idarubicin, and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. It is not yet know whether choline magnesium trisalicylate and combination chemotherapy is more effective than combination chemotherapy alone in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine temporal changes in leukemic cell nuclear factor of kappa light chain enhancer of B-cells 1 (NF-kB) activity when salicylate (choline magnesium trisalicylate) is administered to patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) during induction chemotherapy.

II. To determine toxicities associated with administration of salicylate in the setting of induction chemotherapy.

III. To determine if salicylate alters the expression of NF-kB-regulated genes in AML cells.

IV. To determine if NF-kB modulation by salicylate alters AML chemotherapy drug efflux.

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

ARM I: Patients receive choline magnesium trisalicylate orally (PO) every 8 hours on days 0-7, idarubicin intravenously (IV) on days 1-3, and cytarabine IV continuously on days 1-7.

ARM II: Patients receive idarubicin IV on days 1-3 and cytarabine IV continuously on days 1-7.

In both arms, treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up periodically.

What is being measured

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

  1. Inhibition of NF-kB Target Transcripts and/or Inhibition of Drug Efflux in at Least 50% of Patients

    The clinical trial will be based on a sequential monitoring so that we will have a 90% confidence that choline magnesium trisalicylate (CMT) based modulation of NF-kB transcriptional targets and/or drug efflux occurs in at least 50% of patients.

    Measured: 24 hours
