About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Efficacy of Induction-consolidation Treatment Using a Double Induction in Patients With AML <60 Years Old, Depending on the Percentage of Blasts in the 14 Day, Residual Disease and Leukemic Hematopoietic Cells

In view of the diversity of the biology of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) therapy in individual patients must be individualized. One of the tools for this is molecular-cytogenetic stratification. It divides patients into five categories (prognostic groups): Favorable, Intermediate-1, Intermediate-2, Adverse and Very adverse risk. After remission proceedings are tailored depending on prognostic determined groups.

Research of PALG group in the application in the second line regimen CLAG and CLAG-M proved high effectiveness of this treatment with low toxicity. Considering experience of PALG groups, it seems that the use of the schema CLAG early as the second induction therapy is a viable treatment option.

Read the detailed description

Patients with AML with one of 5 prognostic categories based on modified cytogenetic-molecular stratification (European Leukemia Net Prognostic System - ENL)

Favorable risk

t(8;21)(q22;q22); RUNX1-RUNX1T1 inv(16)(p13.1q22) or t(16;16)(p13.1;q22); CBFB-MYH11 Mutated NPM1 without FLT3-ITD (NK) Mutated CEBPA (NK)

Intermediate I risk

Mutated NPM1 with FLT3-ITD (NK) Wild-type NPM1 and FLT3-ITD (NK) Wild-type NPM1 without FLT3-ITD (NK)

Intermediate II risk

t(9;11)(p22;q22); MLLT3-MLL cytogenic abnormalities other than favorable or adverse

Adverse risk

Inv(3)(q21q26.2) or t(3;3)(q21;q26.2); RPN-EVI1

Very adverse risk monosomal karyotype (MK): -5 or del(5q); -7; abnl(17p); complex karyotype

Goals:

  • Evaluation of the impact of therapy tailored to the risk factors on outcome of AML patients aged ≤ 60.
  • Evaluation of the possibility to improve the results of induction therapy through the use of early 2nd induction in patients with persistent leukemic infiltration of the bone marrow at the 14th day,
  • Evaluation of the impact of the minimal residual disease (MRD) presence assessed by Immunophenotyping method, on the results of treatment of AML patients aged ≤ 60,
  • Assessing the significance of monitoring the number of leukemic stem cells (LSC) in bone marrow and peripheral blood and their influence on clinical course and outcome of AML treatment,
  • Assessment of the LSC determination usefulness in MRD monitoring in patients with AML,
  • Evaluation of the prognostic significance of the expression of CXCR-4 on the surface of leukemic cells and their impact on the clinical course and outcome of AML - trying to select a group of patients who potentially would benefit from the use of chemosensitization with plerixafor,
  • Evaluation of autologous HSCT effectiveness in consolidation therapy in AML patients from 3 following cytogenetic-molecular risk groups: Favorable, Intermediate I, Intermediate II,
  • Comparison of the overall survive (OS) and leukemia-free survival after autologous and allogeneic HSCT in AML patients from Intermediate I and Intermediate II cytogenetic-molecular risk groups (biological randomization donor vs. donor).

Study groups in NCT02072811
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Induction, DACOtherThe first stage of treatment. First DAC induction cycle is common to all patients (regardless of risk group). After completion of induction I occurs early assessment of bone marrow on the +14 day after the start of treatment (+7 day after completion of chemotherapy).
Receives: Drug: DAC
II early induction, CLAGOtherPatients with blasts in the bone marrow in D14> 10% receive early second induction (CLAG) which start form +16 day. Patients with blasts in the bone marrow in D14 ≤ 10% do not receive early second induction and are qualified to assess the response times on +28 day or after full morphology recovery (if it occurs before the +28 day
Receives: Drug: CLAG
Consolidation, I HAM cycleOtherI induction cycle starts after complete remission (CR). - After I consolidation, patients from Intermediate I an Intermediate II group (ELN prognostic system): If compatible donor is present - allogeneic HSCT qualification after I or II consolidation. If compatible donor for allogeneic HSCT is not present - attempt to CD34+ mobilization for autologous SCT after II consolidation - After I consolidation, patients from Adverse risk group (ELN prognostic system): If compatible donor is present - immediate qualification for allogeneic HSCT. - Finding a donor should be initiated in all patients, at the latest after the end of I induction. In the first place, it should be checked whether the patient has a donor family, if not - searching start for an unrelated donor. For patients with no compatible donor for allogeneic HSCT - need to start searching for an alternative donor
Receives: Drug: Consolidation, I HAM cycle
II Consolidation HiDAraCOtherPatients from all 5 risk group receive second after first consolidation [Ara-C] Patient from Very adverse risk receive Ara-C + CLA (Cladribine). If it is needed - more intensive consolidation treatment with 2-Cda. Patients form Very adverse risk receive Maintenance treatment: Decitabine 20 mg/m2 60 min infusion iv (Intravenous injection) for 5 days every 6 weeks. Patients from Favorable, - Intermediate I an Intermediate II risk groups: CD34+ mobilization (HSCT qualification).
Receives: Drug: II Consolidation HiDAraC
Consolidation, III HiDAraC cycleOtherPatients from Favorable, Intermediate I an Intermediate II risk groups receive III consolidation or autologous HSCT (depends on results of mobilization). Patients from Adverse risk receive III Consolidation HiDAraC + Cladribina (CLA) If no CR: CLAG-M reinduction therapy and after CR - treatment according to protocol.
Receives: Drug: Consolidation, III HiDAraC cycle

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete remission after induction

    Outcome measure after induction:

    At +28 day after treatment or after full morphology recovery (if it occurs before the +28 day)

    Complete remission, according to Cheson's CR criteria:

    • Lack of extramedullary infiltration,
    • Platelet count> 100 G / L,
    • Neutrophil count> 1.0 G / L,
    • Lack of blast cells in the blood,
    • Bone marrow blasts <5% in the cytomorphology.

    After induction treatment, patients are qualified for one of the pro-remission treatment options, which is associated with cytogenetic-molecular risk groups, according to the modification of the molecular ELN / MDACC.

    Therapeutic decisions are being made according to cytogenetic-molecular stratification: Favorable, Intermediate-1, Intermediate-2, Adverse and Very adverse risk.

    Measured: 28 days

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Agnieszka Wierzbowska, dr hab.n.med. (+48426895191, agawierzbowska@wp.pl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete remission after induction (time frame: 28 days). 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 NCT02072811, 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 27 Feb 2014.
