About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Combination Study of Sapacitabine in Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndromes

This is a combination study to evaluate sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine in previously untreated Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or concomitantly with venetoclax in previously treated AML or MDS

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, single arm, study of sapacitabine administered in alternating cycles with decitabine in elderly patients with previously untreated AML (Part 1) or concomitantly with venetoclax in adult patients with relapsed or refractory AML or MDS (Part 2). Treatment will be administered on an outpatient basis. One treatment cycle is 4 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing sapacitabine and decitabine (Part 1 - completed) and sapacitabine and venetoclax (Part 2 - recruiting) in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndromes, run by Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 3 sites 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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jul 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Judy H Chiao, MD (9085177330, jchiao@cyclacel.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients who achieve a clinical benefit response including CR, CRp, PR and major HI (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01211457, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 Jul 2019.
