Phase II Study of Clofarabine in Adult Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myelogenous Leukemia

March 17, 2014 updated by: Genzyme, a Sanofi Company

A Phase II, Open-Label Study of Clofarabine in Adult Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Acute Myelogenous 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.

This is a single arm, open-label, Phase II study of CLOFARABINE in adult patients with refractory or relapsed acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Qualified patients must be refractory to one or two induction regimens, or have relapsed < one year from the date of confirmation of the initial complete remission (CR). There will be two phases in this study - an Induction phase and a Consolidation phase.
