About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II National, Open-label, Multicenter Study of Bortezomib (Velcade) in Combination With FLAG-IDA (VFLAG- IDA) in Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).

The primary aim of this study is:

  • To analyze the efficacy (in order to evaluate the response) of a sequential treatment scheme of Bortezomib in combination with Fludarabine,Cytarabine and Idarubicin continued with Bortezomib monotherapy for patients with relapsed or refractory AML ≥18 years old.

The safety aim of this study is:

  • To evaluate the safety and tolerance of the sequential treatment scheme proposed with Bortezomib combined with Fludarabine, Cytarabine and Idarubicin and in monotherapy, measured on clinical toxicities and laboratory incidences.

The biological aim of this study is:

  • To evaluate the Minimal Residual Disease (MRD)impact that will be monitored by multiparametric flow cytometry carried out at different moments during the treatment.
Read the detailed description

Initially a phase I will be performed to determine the appropriate dose of Cytarabine to be used in Flag-Ida regimen in combination with Velcade; for that reason, first 9 patients will be distributed to 3 different cohorts with 3 patients in each cohort, which will be treated at each Cytarabine dose level (200 mg/m2-500 mg/m2-1000 mg/m2)in combination with the other drugs from Flag scheme and the fixed dose of Velcade at 1,3 mg/m2.

Once the appropriate Cytarabine dose is determined,the recruitment will be completed with 40 patients and evaluations and visits program will be realized in three periods: Pre-treatment, Treatment and Follow-up.

The Pre-treatment includes Screening and baseline visits. After providing informed consent, patients will be evaluated for study eligibility.

Eligible patients included in the study will receive the first cycle, which consist of Fludarabine, Cytarabine and Idarubicin in combination with 2 times per week of Velcade administration. Each 28-day treatment, patients will be evaluated, and in absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, patients will start second cycle with Bortezomib in monotherapy two times per week followed by a 10 days rest period. That is, patients who response with acceptable toxicity will receive the combined sequential scheme twice (as induction and consolidation).

Patients will be evaluated the day 1 of each cycle,during the treatment period, in order to know the response before carrying on the treatment. Once the Treatment period is completed, patients will be evaluated during the Follow-up period, one monthly visit in year 1, and every 3 months for 3 next years. On each center criteria, autologous/allogeneic transplant can be planned depending on age and HLA identical sibling donor make it possible: it will be done following the sequential scheme (Velcade-Flag-Ida and Velcade in monotherapy); if the patient is not candidate for a transplant or has no donor, he/she will receive 2 sequential scheme.

Safety will be evaluated through all adverse events monitoring, physical exploration, vital signs, hematimetric and biochemical analysis. The treatment response will be evaluated using Cheson's standardized criteria, and MRD impact will be necessary evaluated the day 1 of each new cycle before to carry on the treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Bortezomib in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by PETHEMA Foundation at 13 sites in Spain.

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 13 inclusion and 9 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 28 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Spain. 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 combined 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.

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 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?

Efficacy (in order to evaluate the response) of a sequential treatment scheme of Bortezomib in combination with Fludarabine,Cytarabine and Idarubicin continued with Bortezomib monotherapy for patients with relapsed or refractory AML ≥18 years old. (time frame: 1 year). 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 28 Feb 2013.
