About this study

Official title: Phase I Dose-Finding Study of Eltrombopag Following High Dose Cytarabine and Mitoxantrone in Relapsed/Refractory Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

The purpose of this study is to find out the highest safe dose and examine the side effects and effectiveness of eltrombopag olamine in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with chemotherapy that have not responded to previous therapy or have suffered a relapse

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and examine the tolerability of daily oral eltrombopag (eltrombopag olamine) (14 days +/- 2 days after initiation of cytarabine) in patients receiving high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia patients with hypoplastic bone marrow 14 days +/- 2 days from initiation of cytarabine.

II. To examine platelet count recovery to >= 100 x 10^9/L when eltrombopag is administered following high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemic patients.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive eltrombopag olamine orally (PO) once daily (QD) from day 1 up to day 62. Treatment continues for up to 9 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. MTD and tolerability of eltrombopag olamine in patients with AML, determined according to incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4

    Measured: Up to day 15

  2. Platelet count recovery to >= 100 x 10^9/L when eltrombopag olamine is administered following high dose cytarabine and mitoxantrone for the treatment of AML patients

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Platelet recovery to >= 100 x 10^9/L and platelet response, assessed based on a modified International Working Group Consensus Criteria for hematologic improvement

    Number of platelet transfusions and duration of time without platelet transfusions from the first dose of eltrombopag olamine will be measured.

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

  2. Platelet response based on a modified International Working Group Consensus Criteria for hematologic improvement

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

  3. Platelet transfusion requirements

    Measured: Up to 9 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing eltrombopag olamine and standard follow-up care in people with Adult Acute Basophilic Leukemia and Adult Acute Eosinophilic Leukemia, run by Roswell Park Cancer Institute at 2 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 20 inclusion and 15 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 22 Jul 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor wanted study rewritten). 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?

MTD and tolerability of eltrombopag olamine in patients with AML, determined according to incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) graded using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4 (time frame: Up to day 15). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Jul 2022.
