Cladribine, Cytarabine, and Imatinib Mesylate in Treating Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Blastic Phase Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia
A Phase 1 study testing filgrastim, cladribine and cytarabine in people with Leukemia, run by University of Rochester at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Phase I Study of CLAG Regimen in Combination With Imatinib Mesylate (Gleevec) in Refractory or Relapsed Leukemias
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cladribine and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Imatinib mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving cladribine and cytarabine together with imatinib mesylate may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of imatinib mesylate when given together with cladribine and cytarabine in treating patients with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or blastic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the safety and feasibility of cladribine, cytarabine, and imatinib mesylate in patients with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or blastic phase chronic myelogenous leukemia.
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of imatinib mesylate in patients treated with this regimen.
- Correlate the expression of c-kit and the presence of c-kit mutations with clinical response in patients treated with this regimen.
- Correlate the in vitro inhibitory effects of imatinib mesylate and cytarabine on the proliferation and survival of leukemic cells with clinical response in patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of imatinib mesylate.
Patients receive oral imatinib mesylate once daily on days 1-15 and cladribine IV over 2 hours and cytarabine IV over 4 hours on days 3-7. Patients also receive filgrastim (G-CSF) subcutaneously on days 2-7. Treatment repeats every 15 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of imatinib mesylate until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically for up to 1 year.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 12-18 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing filgrastim, cladribine and cytarabine in people with Leukemia, run by University of Rochester 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
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 NCT00258271, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 16 Oct 2013.
