About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Clinical Study of Molecular Subtyping Combined With MRD-driven Remission Induction Regimen in Children and Adolescents With AML: A Phase II Cohort Study (GMCAII)

The goal of this clinical trial is to estimate the rate (probability) of complete remission or complete remission with incomplete count recovery (CR/CRi) with negative MRD after induction I and II, event-free survival (EFS), and cumulative incidence (probability) of relapse (CIR), in patients receiving molecular/precision medicine and MRD-driven remission inductions, and to assess secondarily if there is an improvement over the AML2018 protocol.

Read the detailed description

Advances in risk stratification and therapy, have improved the event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with current treatment strategies. Investigators previously conducted a multicenter, randomized controlled trial (AML18) to compare the efficacy and safety of low-dose chemotherapy versus standard-dose chemotherapy. The results showed that low-dose chemotherapy was non-inferior to standard-dose chemotherapy in terms of efficacy and had fewer adverse events. However, different subtypes exhibited varying treatment responses to both chemotherapy regimens. The MRD (Measurable Residual Disease) after induction therapy in both groups had an impact on prognosis. According to the backbone of the 2018 protocol, investigators decide whether to use low-dose or standard-dose for the first induction according to the patient's fusion gene, and the second induction and subsequent treatment are adjusted according to the treatment response. Patients with the following 5 fusion genes RUNX1: RUNX1T1, CBFβ: MYH11, KMT2A: MLLT3 (AF9), KMT2A: MLLT10 (AF10), KMT2A: MLLT4 (AF6) fusion or KIT mutation will be assigned to the standard dose remission induction regimen (HHT + Ara-C + VP16), others will be assigned to the standard dose regimen (Mitoxantrone/Idarubicin + Ara-C + G-CSF). At the same time, investigators will add targeted drugs such as venetoclax, avaptitinib, and gilteritinib/sorafenib to the chemotherapy regimen and assess their safety and efficacy. Post-induction consolidation consisted of 3 to 4 cycles of standard-dose chemotherapy according to risk classification. Patients classified as high-risk are candidates for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation after 1 or 2 courses of consolidation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of CR/CRi with negative MRD

    CR/CRi with negative MRD was defined as less than 5% blasts in bone marrow and MRD <0.1%.

    Measured: Day 26 (HAE group) and Day 32 (MAG+Ven group) for remission induction 1 and 2 are the necessary time points for response evaluation.

  2. Event-free survival

    Events/failures of EFS include any-cause death, relapse, second malignancy, no CR after Indiction II and off-therapy due to abandonment or attending physician's decision.

    Induction II and off-therapy due to abandonment or attending physician's decision.

    Measured: From date of treatment until the date of the occurrence of the event, whichever comes first, assessed up to 72 months. Patients remaining event-free are censored at the last follow-up time.

  3. Cumulative incidence of relapse

    Failures of CIR only include relapse and no CR after Induction 2. Other failures including death in resission (before repalse), second malignancy, and off-therapy due to abandonment or attending physician's decision are considered competing risk.

    Measured: From date of treatment until the date of when a failure of CIR occurs, whichever comes first, assessed up to 72 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Homoharringtonine, Cytarabine and Etoposide in people with AML, Childhood and Acute Myeloid Leukemia, run by Children's Hospital of Soochow University at 13 sites in China.

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 8 inclusion and 12 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in China. 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Shaoyan Hu, MD, PhD (+86-13771870462, hsy139@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of CR/CRi with negative MRD (time frame: Day 26 (HAE group) and Day 32 (MAG+Ven group) for remission induction 1 and 2 are the necessary time points for response evaluation.). The study lists 3 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 Aug 2024.
