About this study

Official title: Open-Label, Multi-Center Phase I Dose-Escalation Study With Lenalidomide In Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

This is a Phase I, open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation study of lenalidomide in adult patients with newly diagnosed, relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. All patients will receive lenalidomide per oral daily (starting dose is 25 mg/d). Cohorts of 3 patients (to be expanded up to 6 if 1 dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is observed among the first 3 patients) will be sequentially allotted to progressively higher dose levels of lenalidomide on the basis of the presence and severity of lenalidomide-related toxicity or lenalidomide related serious adverse reactions encountered in the first cycle. For the purpose of this study, patients' enrollment will continue until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be determined and characterized.

    Dose escalation:

    Level 0 to level 5, starting with level 1 = 25mg lenalidomide per os daily, Cohorts of 3 patients (to be expanded up to 6 if 1 DLT is observed among the first 3 patients) will be sequentially allotted to progressively higher dose levels of lenalidomide on the basis of the presence and severity of lenalidomide related toxicity encountered in the first cycle or lenalidomide related serious adverse reactions.

    Duration of the first cycle: 56days, each following cycle will last 28 days

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs), Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    Measured: 1-56 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Measurement of the pharmacokinetic profile of lenalidomide

    Measured: 1st and 8th day

  2. Objective tumor response, as defined using the revised recommendations of the International Working Group for diagnosis, standardization of response criteria in Acute Myeloid Leukemia for AML

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing lenalidomide in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by University of Ulm at 6 sites in Germany.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 29 Jul 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Germany. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Results of an interim analysis and a hardly ongoing enrolment in the last 10 months in all six participating centres). 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?

Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs), Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) (time frame: 1-56 days). 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 29 Jul 2011.
