Interventional

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

18 years to 99 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
EXPERIMENTAL: Computational Biology-Informed Treatment
Patients randomized to this arm will receive an FDA-approved drug or combination of drugs predicted to have a therapeutic effect based on their individual MDS disease genetic profile by a computational biology simulation software program. The specific drug or combination of drugs that a patient on this arm will receive will be decided jointly by a molecular oncology board comprised of physicians, pharmacists, and nurse coordinators and the treating physician. Patients will receive a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 4 months of treatment with the selected drug or combination of drugs.
Drug: FDA-approved drug or combination of drugs
Patients assigned to this arm will receive an FDA-approved drug or combination of drugs. Dosing and treatment schedule will follow the package insert for the selected drug(s).
Device: Computational biology simulations software
Genetic testing results for each patient randomized to this arm will be used by a computational biology simulations software program to generate a personalized map of dysregulated metabolic pathways contributing to the patient's disease. This map will then be used to digitally screen for potentially therapeutic FDA-approved drugs or drug combinations to target the dysregulated metabolic pathways.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Standard of Care Treatment
Patients randomized to this arm will receive either one of three standard of care treatment regimens of the treating physician's choice (low-dose cytarabine, 7 + 3 induction, or FLAG induction) or supportive care alone. Patients will receive a minimum of 2 months and a maximum of 4 months of the selected treatment regimen or of supportive care alone.
Drug: FLAG induction
Patients will receive 30 mg/m2 per day intravenously of fludarabine for 5 days and 2000 mg/m2 per day intravenously of cytarabine for 5 days. 5 mg/kg per day of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) may be given subcutaneously beginning on Day 1 of each treatment until absolute granulocyte count > 500/ microliter for 3 days.
Drug: 7 + 3 induction
Patients will receive 100-200 mg/m2 per day intravenously of cytarabine for 7 days, plus either 45-60 mg/m2 per day intravenously of daunorubicin or 9-12 mg/m2 per day intravenously of idarubicin for 3 days.
Drug: Low-dose cytarabine
Patients will receive 20 mg/m2 per day subcutaneously of cytarabine for 10 days every 28 days.
Other: Supportive care alone
Patients will receive one or more of the following: blood product transfusions, antibiotics, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), erythropoietic stimulating factors, and iron chelation.
