What participants receive

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

  • IrinotecanDrug

    Chemotherapy: irinotecan, etoposide, and cytarabine daily for 5 days (on days 0, 1, 2, 3, \& 4) -30 min: Atropin ivs 0 hour: irinotecan X mg/m2 in D5W 100 mL IV over 60 min 0 hour: etoposide 100 mg/m2 in x3 N/S mL IV over 60 min 12 hour: cytarabine 2,000 mg/m2 over 3 hr

    *if age ≤ 3 yrs: calculate all drugs in kg base (30kg=1m2) Irinotecan dose is escalated by 25-30% in successive cohorts. The starting irinotecan dose (level 1) is 20 mg/m2/dose on days 0 to 4.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Hyoung Jin Kang, M.D, Ph.D (82 2 2072 3304, kanghj@snu.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the maximum tolerable dose of irinotecan in combination with etoposide, cytarabine for refractory or relapsed acute leukemia in pediatric patient. (time frame: 28 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 19 Nov 2013.
