About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Intravenous Plerixafor in Combination With Mitoxantrone Etoposide and Cytarabine for Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

In this phase I extension study, the investigators seek to test the safety of both higher doses of plerixafor as well as intravenous dosing to maximize inhibition of the target, CXCR4.

Read the detailed description

In this study, we are seeking to target the leukemia microenvironment to overcome disease resistance. We hypothesize that by disrupting the interaction of leukemic blasts with the bone marrow microenvironment, we may sensitize leukemic blasts to the effects of cytotoxic chemotherapy. In current formulations, the volume of plerixafor required to administer doses higher than 240 mcg/kg may result in significant discomfort with repeated daily injections. In this phase I extension study, we seek to test the safety of both higher doses of plerixafor as well as intravenous dosing to maximize inhibition of the target, CXCR4.

Being tested
Plerixafor, Mitoxantrone, Etoposide, Cytarabine

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose limiting toxicities of intravenous plerixafor when combined with MEC in patients with relapsed or refractory AML.

    Measured: Days 1-42 (all patients have to complete)

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. To determine the complete response rate (CR) for plerixafor when combined with MEC in patients with relapsed or refractory AML.

    Measured: Between days 15-42

  2. To determine the safety and tolerability of plerixafor in combination with MEC

    Measured: Minimum of 30 days following completion of treatment

  3. To determine the PK and explore potential PK drug-drug interactions between plerixafor and MEC.

    Measured: Predose, 15 min, 30 min , and 10 hrs

  4. To determine the time to hematologic recovery

    Measured: For up to 2 years

  5. To characterize the mobilization of leukemic cells with plerixafor plus G-CSF.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 hours

  6. To characterize the effects of plerixafor plus G-CSF on SDF-1/CXCR4 signaling on leukemic blasts.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 hours

  7. To determine the time to overall survival

    Measured: For up to 2 years

  8. To determine the time to event-free survival

    Measured: For up to 2 years

  9. To determine the time to duration of remission

    Measured: For up to 2 years

  10. To determine the time to relapse-free survival

    Measured: For up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Plerixafor, Mitoxantrone and Etoposide in people with Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute, run by Washington University School of Medicine 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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jan 2015. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Withdrawal of support from sponsor). 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?

To determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose limiting toxicities of intravenous plerixafor when combined with MEC in patients with relapsed or refractory AML. (time frame: Days 1-42 (all patients have to complete)). 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 26 Jan 2015.
