About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-label, Dose-Escalation Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics of Oral Azacitidine in Subjects With Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS), Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML) or Acute Myelogenous Leukemia (AML).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a tablet form of azacitidine that taken by mouth is safe. This Phase I study will also look at different doses and different treatment schedules in order to better understand the effects (positive and negative) of oral azacitidine on the body and on the disease MDS, AML and CMML.

Read the detailed description

Optional Extension Phase (OEP) to the AZA PH US 2007 CL 005 study which allows subjects who continue to receive oral azacitidine and have stable disease or are demonstrating clinical benefit as assessed by the Investigator, and have consented to participate, may enter the OEP of this study (at their current doses) at the start of their next cycle.

Subjects who are entering the OEP should be discontinued from Part 1 or Part 2 protocol prescribed therapy in the AZA PH US 2007 CL 005 study.

Subjects may continue to receive oral azacitidine in the OEP until they meet the criteria for study discontinuation or oral azacitidine becomes commercially available. Subjects discontinuing from the OEP will have an OEP discontinuation visit 28 days after the last dose of study drug or at study withdrawal.

Primary Objective of OEP is to evaluate long term safety of oral azacitidine.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    Also called CC-486

    Cycle 2 and beyond starting dose of 120 mg/day for first 7 days of 28 day cycle. Dose will escalate in increments of 60 mg. Following evaluation dose escalation will occur in 120 mg increments until maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached.

  • Oral AzacitidineDrug

    Also called CC-486

    Starting dose for 14 day-QD treatment schedule will be 300 mg/day. Starting dose for 14 day-BID, 21 day-QD, 21 day-BID treatment schedules will be 100 mg, 200mg, 300mg. Dose will escalate in increments of 100 mg until MTD is reached.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety evaluation as measured by monitoring AEs, dose limiting toxicities, scheduled lab assessments, vital sign measurements, ECGs, & physical exams for study duration. Adverse changes in physical signs/symptoms will be graded according to CTC AE V.3.0.

    Measured: 60 months

  2. Maximum-tolerated dose

    Measured: 60 months

  3. Pharmacodynamic blood and bone marrow samples will be collected and evaluated.

    Measured: 60 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Efficacy assessed by evidence of response (MDS subjects) and/or hematologic improvement (MDS subjects) examined using IWG criteria.

    Measured: 60 months

  2. Biologically active dose based on safety, PK and PD data.

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Subcutaneous (SC) Azacitidine and Oral Azacitidine in people with Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML), run by Celgene at 18 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?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 11 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 8 Nov 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 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 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety evaluation as measured by monitoring AEs, dose limiting toxicities, scheduled lab assessments, vital sign measurements, ECGs, & physical exams for study duration. Adverse changes in physical signs/symptoms will be graded according to CTC AE V.3.0. (time frame: 60 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00528983, which also lists 3 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 8 Nov 2019.
