About this study

Official title: Phase I Trial of Maintenance Lenalidomide in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia or High Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome Post Allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplantation

The purpose of this study is to determine whether lenalidomide can stop the growth of leukemia stem cells and can be used to prevent the return of leukemia cells after a transplant.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is determine whether lenalidomide can directly inhibit leukemic stem cells in vivo and can be used to prevent the relapse of leukemia stem cells after transplant. A concern with any post transplant intervention is the possibility of multiple drug interactions, potential for graft versus host disease exacerbation and/or induction of cytopenia. Therefore, the smallest doses of lenalidomide (5 mg) that has been used in this setting will be utilized as dose level 1. Starting six months post-transplant, patients will begin on a daily dose of lenalidomide. Dependent on the cohort, patients will receive 5 to 20 mg of lenalidomide post transplant. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be determined by the incidence of grade III-IV toxicities of all organs and grade II-IV GVHD. Duration of treatment is six months.

What participants receive

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

  • LenalidomideDrug

    Also called REVLIMID, CC-5013

    Lenalidomide will be taken orally once a day for 21 days continuously in 28 day cycles. The dose of the lenalidomide administered to each patient will be based on the group that the patient is enrolled. The dose cycles will be 21 days of a 28 day cycle.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Phase I Dose EscalationExperimentalSubjects are given a single dose of the drug while they are observed and tested for a period of time. If they do not exhibit any adverse side effects the dose is escalated, and a new group of subjects is then given a higher dose.
Receives: Drug: Lenalidomide

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum-tolerated dose as assessed by NCI CTCAE, Version 4.0 and Graft versus Host Disease Staging

    All patients will be followed closely and evaluated for toxicity. For grade III-IV non hematological toxicity or grade IV hematological toxicity associated with lenalidomide will be held until the toxicity resolves and then will be started at a lower dose; Patients who develop grade II to IV GVHD on study will stop lenalidomide

    Measured: 4 week cycle; the expected time frame is 24 weeks (or 6 cycles)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Disease relapse

    Percentage of patients with relapse from all the patients who received the transplant.

    Measured: One year

  2. Disease-free survival

    Percentage of patients who are alive and remain in remission at one year after infusion of stem cells

    Measured: One year

  3. Incidence of Graft versus Host disease

    The percentage of pathologically confirmed cases of acute and/or chronic Graft versus Host disease at one year post transplant

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lenalidomide in people with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome, run by University of California, Davis 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 16 inclusion and 13 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Mar 2022. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Maximum-tolerated dose as assessed by NCI CTCAE, Version 4.0 and Graft versus Host Disease Staging (time frame: 4 week cycle; the expected time frame is 24 weeks (or 6 cycles)). 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 10 Mar 2022.
