Efficacy and Toxicity of Increasing Doses of Idarubicin, Cytarabine and G-CSF in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

January 27, 2016 updated by: Grupo Cooperativo de Estudio y Tratamiento de las Leucemias Agudas y Mielodisplasias

Treatment of di Novo Acute Myeloid Leukemia With the Combination of Increasing Doses of Idarubicin, Cytarabine and Sensitization (Priming) With G-CSF. A Phase II Prospective Study of Toxicity and Efficacy.

While several studies have been reported with increasing doses of daunorubicin in the first line treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), there is no similar experience with idarubicin as initial treatment of AML.

As idarubicin is the most common treatment used for AML, it is needed to find the optimal dose for the combination of idarubicin, cytarabine and G_CSF, to explore if this combination improves the outcomes of current treatments for AML.

The aim of this dose-finding study is to find the optimal dose for the combination of idarubicin, cytarabine and G-CSF that could improve the response rate, reduce relapse and improve survival of patients with primary acute myeloid leukemia. This could be a significant advance in a field where treatment outcomes have stabilized in the last 15 years. This study will be the basis for further prospective, randomized, multicenter trial comparing idarubicin maximum tolerated dose, compared to standard treatment with idarubicin and cytarabine, including raising both arms in G-CSF. The dose of 12 mg/m2 will be administered as control arm in this future randomized study, which will investigate the benefit of enhanced dose identified as optimal in this phase II pilot study.

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.
