What is being measured

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

  1. To compare the response rate (CR + CRi) of AS1411 at 40 and 80mg/kg/day in combination with cytarabine therapy with the response rate (CR + CRi) of cytarabine therapy alone

    Measured: Dec 2011

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To compare duration of remission, disease free survival and overall survival of AS1411 at 40 or 80mg/kg/day in combination with cytarabine therapy with that of cytarabine alone.

    Measured: Dec 2011

  2. To compare the time to hematological recovery of AS1411 at 40 or 80mg/kg/day in combination with cytarabine therapy with that of cytarabine alone.

    Measured: Dec 2011

  3. To compare the safety of AS1411 at 40 or 80mg/kg/day in combination with cytarabine therapy with that of cytarabine alone.

    Measured: Dec 2011

  4. To evaluate and compare a range of PD markers in patients administered AS1411 in combination with cytarabine therapy with the same PD markers in patients administered cytarabine therapy alone.

    Measured: Dec 2011

  5. To further define the PK of AS1411

    Measured: Dec 2011

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AS1411 and Cytarabine in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Antisoma Research at 14 sites in 4 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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 2 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in Australia, Taiwan, United States, New Zealand. 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 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 was stopped early. 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 compare the response rate (CR + CRi) of AS1411 at 40 and 80mg/kg/day in combination with cytarabine therapy with the response rate (CR + CRi) of cytarabine therapy alone (time frame: Dec 2011). 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 2 Feb 2011.
