A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin and topotecan hydrochloride in people with Leukemia, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining carboplatin and topotecan in treating patients with relapsed acute myelogenous… Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Phase II Study of Continuous Infusion Carboplatin and Topotecan in the Treamtment of Relapsed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML)
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining carboplatin and topotecan in treating patients with relapsed acute myelogenous leukemia.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the efficacy of a 5-day continuous infusion of carboplatin and topotecan in patients with relapsed and refractory acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). II. Assess the toxic effects of this treatment in these patients.
OUTLINE: Patients receive continuous intravenous infusions of topotecan and carboplatin for 5 days. Treatment repeats every 3-4 weeks during induction (two courses) and every 6-10 weeks during consolidation. No more than four courses of treatment are given. Patients are followed every 6 months for 5 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin and topotecan hydrochloride in people with Leukemia, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
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 12 Jul 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
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?
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?
overall survival (time frame: Up to 5 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 12 Jul 2016.
