About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of 506U78 in Patients With Refractory or Relapsed T-Lineage Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) or Lymphoblastic Lymphomas (LBL)

Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of 506U78 in treating patients with refractory or relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine the complete and partial remission rates, as well as the remission duration, in patients with refractory or relapsed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or lymphoblastic lymphoma receiving 506U78 on an alternate day schedule (days 1, 3, 5).

II. Determine the safety and toxicity of 506U78 administered on this schedule to this patient population.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive 506U78 IV over 2 hours on days 1, 3, and 5. If residual leukemia/lymphoma is present on day 22, then patients receive a second course of 506U78. If day 22 marrow is hypocellular, then a repeat bone marrow biopsy should be obtained on day 29 to assess response. For day 22 or 29 marrow that is in complete response, patients receive 506U78 for two more courses on days 1, 3, and 5, administered every 21 days. Patients are followed every 3 month for 1 year, then every 6 months for a maximum of 10 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing nelarabine in people with Leukemia and Lymphoma, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 91 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?

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 5 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 91 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.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00003545, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 5 Feb 2013.
