About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Study of EMD 121974 as Maintenance Therapy for Patinets With Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Complete Remission

This randomized phase II trial is studying how well cilengitide works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Cilengitide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine 10-month relapse-free survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemia in first complete remission treated with cilengitide as maintenance therapy.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine overall survival of patients treated with this drug. II. Determine the safety and toxicity of this drug in these patients. III. Determine the biological activity of this drug in cells from these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

Arm I: Patients receive cilengitide IV at a lower dose over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks.

Arm II: Patients receive cilengitide IV at a higher dose over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks.

In both arms, courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease relapse or unacceptable toxicity.

Arm I (low dose cilengitide)ExperimentalPatients receive cilengitide IV at a lower dose over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-free survival (DFS)

    Kaplan-Meier curves will be constructed for each treatment group. Median DFS in each group and corresponding 95% confidence intervals will be estimated. The two treatment groups will be compared using log-rank test.

    Measured: From initiation of induction chemotherapy until the first incidence of disease or death due to any cause, assessed up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival

    Analyzed using Kaplan-Meier life table methods and Cox proportional hazard regression modeling.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Toxicity of cilengitide graded using the CTC version 3

    Compared between the two treatment arms using Fisher's exact test

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing cilengitide in people with Adult Acute Basophilic Leukemia and Adult Acute Eosinophilic Leukemia, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) 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?

The sponsor lists 35 inclusion and 0 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 2013. 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: Administratively complete.). 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease-free survival (DFS) (time frame: From initiation of induction chemotherapy until the first incidence of disease or death due to any cause, assessed up to 2 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 24 Jan 2013.
