Liposomal Cytarabine-Daunorubicin CPX-351 in Treating Patients With Untreated Myelodysplastic Syndrome or Acute Myeloid Leukemia

NCT01804101

Description:

This randomized clinical trial studies liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 in treating patients with untreated myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Purpose

This randomized clinical trial studies liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 in treating patients with untreated myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. Estimate whether the 32 units/m^2 or the 64 units/m^2 or both dose levels of CPX-351
      (liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351) are likely to improve treatment-related mortality
      (TRM) rate while keeping the complete remission (CR) rate constant in patients with untreated
      high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) acute
      myeloid leukemia (AML) at high risk of TRM.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. Describe the CR/CR with incomplete platelet count recovery (CRp) rate after up to 4 cycles
      of induction/re-induction therapy.

      II. Describe the event-free survival, disease-free survival, and overall survival of patients
      who achieve CR/CRp.

      III. Estimate the frequency and severity of regimen-associated toxicities.

      OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

      ARM I:

      INDUCTION/RE-INDUCTION: Patients receive lower-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351
      intravenously (IV) over 90 minutes on days 1, 3, and 5. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4
      courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CR
      or CRp continue on to consolidation.

      CONSOLIDATION: Patients receive lower-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over
      90 minutes on days 1 and 3. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of
      disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      ARM II: (closed to accrual effective 4/21/14) INDUCTION/RE-INDUCTION: Patients receive
      higher-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over 90 minutes on days 1, 3, and 5.
      Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or
      unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving CR or CRp continue on to consolidation.

      CONSOLIDATION: Patients receive higher-dose liposomal cytarabine-daunorubicin CPX-351 IV over
      90 minutes on days 1 and 3. Treatment repeats every 40 days for 4 courses in the absence of
      disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1 month.

Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Diagnosis of untreated "high-risk" MDS (>= 10% blasts) or AML other than acute
             promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with t(15;17)(q22;q12) or variants according to the 2008
             World Health Organization (WHO) classification; patients with biphenotypic AML are
             eligible; outside diagnostic material is acceptable as long as peripheral blood and/or
             bone marrow slides are reviewed at the study institution and cytogenetic/molecular
             information is available

               -  Prior hydroxyurea for AML is permitted but should be discontinued prior to start
                  of CPX-351 treatment
