CLAGE Sequential With Flu-Bu Conditioning for Refractory Acute Leukemia

August 14, 2023 updated by: Jiong HU, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine

Cladribine With Intermediate Cytarabine, G-CSF and VP16 Sequential With Fludarabine and Busulifan as Condoning Regimen for Refractory Acute Leukemia

For patients with refractory acute leukemia, allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only curative therapy. Only 20% of patients may achieve long-term survival mostly due to relapse or nor-relapse mortality (NRM). In previous study, we demonstrated that intensive leukemia debulking chemotherapy FLAG-IDA sequential with Flu-BU conditioning is feasible with ~40% long-term survival. In the study, we further modified the chemotherapy with cladribine replacing fludarabine aiming a more potent anti-leukemia effect. Meanwhile, we reduce the dose of busulfan for patients with poor performance status and age over 45 aim to reduce the NRM. All patients will also receive post-transplantation maintenance therapy with low-dose decitabine to prevent relapse.

Detailed Description

For patients with refractory acute leukemia, allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only curative therapy. Only 20% of patients may achieve long-term survival mostly due to relapse or nor-relapse mortality (NRM). In previous study, we demonstrated that intensive leukemia debulking chemotherapy FLAG-IDA sequential with Flu-BU conditioning is feasible with ~40% long-term survival. The most important cause of treatment failures were relapse and non-relpase mortality. The further analysis demonstrated that patients with higher bone marrow blast before allo-HSCT was associated with treatment failure and patients with poor perforce status or age over 45 had increased rate of NRM. To further optimization the protocol, we modified the chemotherapy with cladribine replacing fludarabine aiming a more potent anti-leukemia effect and replace idarubicin with VP-16. All patients will also receive post-transplantation maintenance therapy with low-dose decitabine (5mg/m2 daily for 5 days) to prevent the further reduce the relapse incidence. We anticipate LFS at 1 year should be above 50% and 1-year LFS of 20% is considered unacceptable.

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

16 years to 60 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
