  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female patients, at least 18 years of age, with newly diagnosed (previously untreated) AML, regardless of the mutational status of FLT3 in their leukemic blasts.
  • Unequivocal histologic diagnosis of AML (based on the World Health Organization [WHO] and/or FAB classifications), excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia. AML patients with a history of antecedent myelodysplasia (MDS) are eligible for treatment in this trial but must not have had prior cytotoxic therapy for MDS.
  • No prior anti-neoplastic therapy for leukemia or MDS with the following exceptions:
  • emergency leukapheresis;
  • emergency treatment for hyperleukocytosis with hydroxyurea;
  • growth factor/cytokine support.

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 to 3
  • Pretreatment laboratory test values within the following limits no more than 7 days before enrollment:
  • total bilirubin equal or less then 1.5 x the upper limit of normal;
  • Alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase equal or less then 2.5 x the ULN;
  • serum creatinine equal or less then 2.0 mg/dL.
  • Male patients must use an appropriate method of barrier contraception during the study.
  • Female patients must be postmenopausal, surgically sterilized, or willing to use reliable methods of birth control (ie, a hormonal contraceptive, an intrauterine device, diaphragm with spermicide, or abstinence) for the duration of the study.
  • Ability to voluntarily provide written informed consent before the performance of any study related procedure not part of normal medical care.

Who cannot join

  • An active malignancy other than AML (with the exception of basal and/or squamous cell skin cancers and curatively treated carcinoma of the cervix) at the time of study entry.
  • Suspected or confirmed diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia [t (15;17)(q22;q12)].
  • Documented or suspected central nervous system (CNS) involvement with leukemia.
  • Ongoing vomiting.
  • Nausea of intensity greater than Grade 1 based on the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) categorization.
  • Known gastrointestinal disease that could interfere with the oral absorption of MLN518.

  • Severe CNS, pulmonary, renal, or hepatic disease not related to the patient's AML.
  • A left ventricular ejection fraction < 40%.
  • Myocardial infarction within 6 months of enrollment or New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure (see Appendix 3), uncontrolled angina, severe uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias, or electrocardiographic evidence of acute ischemia or active conduction system abnormalities.
  • QTc > 500 msec.
  • Known or suspected infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
  • Known active infection with hepatitis B or hepatitis C.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of MLN518 Given in Combination With Standard Induction Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Patients With Newly Diagnosed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

This is a phase 1, open-label, multicenter study investigating the use of MLN518 in combination with standard chemotherapy to patients with newly diagnosed AML. Two dose levels of MLN518-200 mg and 400 mg given orally twice a day are planned for sequential evaluation in separate groups of patients. Patients assigned to the 400 mg dose level given orally twice a day of MLN518, will potentially have their dose of MLN518 adjusted on the basis of MLN518 plasma concentrations measured during the first 3 days of induction therapy. All patients will receive initial induction chemotherapy with cytarabine, 200 mg/m2/day by CIVI on Days 1 through 7, and with daunorubicin, 60 mg/m2/day by intravenous (IV) push (IV infusion if borderline cardiac function is detected) on Days 1 through 3 ("7+3"). An abbreviated cytarabine and daunorubicin regimen ("5+2") will also be used when the initial remission induction therapy fails to clear the bone marrow of blast cells (as typically detected on the Day 15 bone marrow) and a second attempt at remission induction is indicated. Patients who achieve a complete remission (CR) will receive consolidation therapy with HiDAC (standard or modified) in combination with continued MLN518 treatment. Patients remaining in continuous CR after completion of their last cycle of consolidation therapy will be permitted to continue treatment with single-agent MLN518 for 6 months thereafter.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MLN518 in people with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, run by Millennium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 14 inclusion and 15 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2008. 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?
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 11 Feb 2008.
