  • Known chronic condition requiring the treatment with systemic steroids or another immunosuppressive agents.
  • Systemic fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection not controlled (defined as exhibiting ongoing signs/symptoms related to the infection and without improvement, despite appropriate antibiotics or other treatment).
  • Prior seropositive test for the human immunodeficiency virus.
  • Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus

  • Any other severe concurrent disease, or have a history of serious organ dysfunction or disease involving the heart, kidney, liver, or other organ system that may place the patient at undue risk to undergo therapy with RAD001 including:severely impaired lung function; liver disease such as cirrhosis, chronic active hepatitis or chronic; persistent hepatitis;other nonmalignant medical illnesses that are uncontrolled or whose control may be jeopardized by the treatment with the study therapy.
  • History of significant bleeding disorder unrelated to cancer, including:Congenital bleeding disorders (e.g., von Willebrand's disease); Acquired bleeding disorder within one year (e.g., acquired anti-factor VIII antibodies).

About this study

Official title: An Open Label, Time-To-Event Continuous Reassessment Method, Phase I/II Study of the Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Inhibitor RAD001 in Combination With Imatinib (Gleevec) in Patients With Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) With Persistent Molecular Disease.

Patients participating in this study will have a diagnosis of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. This study will evaluate whether the addition of an investigational drug called RAD001 given together with Imatinib will better target leukemia stem cells, causing them to die. Stem cells are a small population of cells, existing primarily within the bone marrow, and are believed to be responsible for the ongoing risk of disease relapse.

What participants receive

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

  • RAD001Drug

    Dosing schedule of RAD001 for the Phase I portion:

    Regimen 1. 5.0 mg q72 hours (400 mg QD); Regimen 2. 5 mg q48 hours (400 mg QD); Regimen 3. 5.0 mg q day (400 mg QD); Regimen 4. 7.5 mg PO q day (400 mg QD.

  • ImatinibDrug

    Also called Gleevac

    Imatinib will be given continuously at a fixed daily dose of 400 mg once daily.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary objective will assess for the maximum tolerated dose of RAD001 when combined with a fixed dose of Imatinib.

    Measured: This objective will assessed by a time-to-event, continuous reassessment method to establish the maximun tolerated dose of the combination of a fixed dose of Imatinib together with RAD001.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The objective will assess the degree to which a fixed dose of Imatinib combined with RAD001 given at the maximum tolerated dose is able to deplete the pool of minimal residual disease in patients.

    Measured: This objective will be assessed by RT-PCR for the Bcr-Abl gene product as demonstrated by the degree of complete molecular responses.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing RAD001 and Imatinib in people with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, run by University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center 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 20 inclusion and 19 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 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 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

The primary objective will assess for the maximum tolerated dose of RAD001 when combined with a fixed dose of Imatinib. (time frame: This objective will assessed by a time-to-event, continuous reassessment method to establish the maximun tolerated dose of the combination of a fixed dose of Imatinib together with RAD001.). 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 15 May 2015.
