Phase II Study of Clofarabine in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

May 26, 2022 updated by: Genzyme, a Sanofi Company

A Phase II, Open Label Study of Clofarabine in Pediatric Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Clofarabine (injection) is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of pediatric patients 1 to 21 years old with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have had at least 2 prior treatment regimens.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Clofarabine is safe and effective in the treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL.)

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a non-randomized, open label, Phase II study of Clofarabine in pediatric patients with refractory or relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Eligible patients must be in second or subsequent relapse or be refractory. Forty eligible patients will be enrolled in a Fleming 2-stage sequential study design in order to better assess the efficacy and safety of clofarabine in this patient population.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

No older than 21 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have a diagnosis of ALL according to FAB classification with greater than or equal to 25% blasts in the bone marrow.
  • Be less than or equal to 21 years old at time of initial diagnosis.
  • Not be eligible for therapy of higher curative potential, and must be in second or subsequent relapse and/or refractory. Where an alternative therapy has been shown to prolong survival in an analogous population, this should be offered to the patient prior to discussing this study.
  • Have a Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) of >70.
  • Provide signed, written informed consent from parent or guardian and assent from patients greater than or equal to 7 years old according to local IRB and institutional requirements.
  • Be able to comply with study procedures and follow-up examinations.
  • Have adequate organ function as indicated by the following laboratory values, obtained within 2 weeks prior to registration: Serum bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN; AST and ALT less than or equal to 5 x ULN; Serum Creatinine less than 2 x ULN for age. ULN= Institutional Upper Limit of Normal

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Received previous treatment with Clofarabine.
  • Have had a recent (<30 days) history of fungal or serious bacterial infection or who are receiving therapeutic antibiotics.
  • Are pregnant or lactating. Male and female patients who are fertile must agree to use an effective means of birth control (i.e., latex condom, diaphragm, cervical cap, etc) to avoid pregnancy.
  • Have psychiatric disorders that would interfere with consent, study participation, or follow up.
  • Are receiving any other chemotherapy. Patients must have been off previous therapy for at least 2 weeks (with the exception of intrathecal therapy, which is allowed up to 24hrs prior to 1st of study drug) and must have recovered from acute toxicity of all previous therapy prior to enrollment. Treatment may start earlier, following consultation with the ILEX Medical Monitor, if there is evidence of disease relapse prior to that time.
  • Have any other severe concurrent disease, or have a history of serious organ dysfunction or disease involving the heart, kidney, liver or pancreas.
  • Have symptomatic CNS involvement.
  • Febrile neutropenia at time of study entry.
  • Have received a hematologic stem cell transplant (HSCT) within the previous 3 months or have active GVHD (greater than or equal to Grade 2).
