About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of a Proteasome Inhibitor, PS-341 (NSC 681239) in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) in Chronic or Accelerated Phase

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of bortezomib in treating patients who have chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic or accelerated phase.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the efficacy of bortezomib, in terms of response rate, duration of response, and survival of patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic or accelerated phase.
  • Assess the toxicity of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: Patients receive bortezomib intravenous (IV) over 3-5 seconds twice weekly on weeks 1-2. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 5-30 patients will be accrued for this study within 15-30 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bortezomib in people with Leukemia, 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?

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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Nov 2018. 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Lack of efficacy). Results are not available in the source record.

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?
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 14 Nov 2018.
