Combination of Sorafenib With Standard Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Adult CBF AML

May 31, 2022 updated by: Qifa Liu, Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University

Prospective Evaluation of Sorafenib Combined With Standard Therapy in Newly Diagnosed Adult Core-binding Factor Acute Myeloid Leukemia: an Open-label , Randomised Controlled, Multicenter Phase II Trial

Core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia accounts for 10-15% of AML and is categorized as favorable-risk AML. However, the 5-year CIR was up to 40% in this group of patients. Emerging data show that a high frequency of mutations and/or high expression of KIT in CBF AML. Sorafenib is a multitargeted TKI, thus the purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sorafenib combined with standard therapy in CBF AML.

Detailed Description

Core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia is characterized by t(8;21) or inv(16) and accounts for 10-15% of AML. Because of the high CR rate of nearly 90% and a 5-year OS of almost 50%, CBF-AML is categorized as favorable-risk AML. However, the 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) was up to 40% in this group of patients after high-dose cytarabine consolidation following CR. Therefore, more effective therapeutic approaches are needed.

Emerging data show that a high frequency of mutations and/or high expression of KIT in CBF AML likely result in aberrant tyrosine kinase activity, leukemia cell growth and survival, and treatment resistance. Thus, pharmacologic inhibition of KIT would lead to significant antileukemia activity if combined with an optimized chemotherapy regimen in patients with CBF AML. Recent mechanistic findings also support the potential clinical benefit of KIT inhibition in CBF AML.

Sorafenib is a first-generation type-II multitargeted tyrosine kinase receptor inhibitor (TKI) that suppresses various signaling pathways associated with the development of AML, such as RTK (FLT3, c-KIT), RAS/RAF, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sorafenib combined with standard therapy in CBF AML.

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

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
