Reduced Intensity Conditioning With Clofarabine, Antithymocyte Globulin (ATG), Total Lymphoid Irradiation (TLI) Following an Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, July 2008
Sponsors and Collaborators: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Genzyme
Information provided by: Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00697684
  Purpose

This study will examine the safety of clofarabine, TLI and ATG as a reduced conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic transplantation. The impact of the conditioning regimen on the presence of the circulating regulatory as compared to activated T cell populations will be assessed.The recovery of DC populations post-transplant will be examined, along with the effect of the regimen on disease free and overall survival.

Official Title: A Reduced Intensity Conditioning With Clofarabine Antithymocyte Globulin and Total Lymphoid Irradiation Followed by Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Further study details as provided by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess the toxicity and donor engraftment following treatment with a reduced intensity preparative regimen consisting of clofarabine, rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG), and total lymphoid irradiation followed by the infusion of allogeneic stem cells [ Time Frame: 30 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To determine the incidence of acute and chronic graft versus host disease following clofarabine, rabbit ATG, total lymphoid irradiation, and allogeneic transplantation. [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • 2. To evaluate the nature of immunologic reconstitution in patients treated clofarabine, rabbit ATG, total lymphoid irradiation, and allogeneic transplantation. The impact of the regimen on the phenotypic and functional characteristics of dendritic cell [ Time Frame: 1 year ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To determine the disease free survival and overall survival of patients undergoing allogeneic transplantation following following clofarabine, rabbit ATG, and total lymphoid irradiation. [ Time Frame: Patient lifetime ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Arms Assigned Interventions
Cohort 1: No Intervention Drug: Antithymocyte Globulin
Transplant conditioning will begin day -11 with 5 days of TLI at a dose of 80 cGy per day administered in conjunction with rabbit ATG at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg per day (day -11 to -7). TLI will be completed at 80 cGy per day (day -4 to 0) for a total of 10 fractions (800 cGy).
Cohort 2: Experimental Drug: Clofarabine
Transplant conditioning will begin day -11 with 5 days of TLI at a dose of 80 cGy per day administered in conjunction with rabbit ATG at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg per day (day -11 to -7). Clofarabine will be given at 20mg/m2/d IV infused over 1 hour x 5 days (day -6 to -2), for a total dose of 100 mg/m(2). TLI will be completed at 80 cGy per day (day -4 to 0) for a total of 10 fractions (800 cGy).
Cohort 3: Experimental Drug: Clofarabine
Transplant conditioning will begin day -11 with 5 days of TLI at a dose of 80 cGy per day administered in conjunction with rabbit ATG at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg per day (day -11 to -7). Clofarabine will be given at 30mg/m2/d IV infused over 1 hour x 5 days (day -6 to -2), for a total dose of 150 mg/m(2). TLI will be completed at 80 cGy per day (day -4 to 0) for a total of 10 fractions (800 cGy).
Cohort 4: Experimental Drug: Clofarabine
Transplant conditioning will begin day -11 with 5 days of TLI at a dose of 80 cGy per day administered in conjunction with rabbit ATG at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg per day (day -11 to -7). Clofarabine will be given at 40mg/m2/d IV infused over 1 hour x 5 days (day -6 to -2), for a total dose of 200 mg/m(2). TLI will be completed at 80 cGy per day (day -4 to 0) for a total of 10 fractions (800 cGy).

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years to 70 Years
Genders Eligible for Study:   Both
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with a)acute myeloid leukemia exclusive of patients in first complete remission with good risk cytogenetics (translocation 8,21,translocation 15, 17 or inversion 16); B)myelodysplastic syndrome; c)acute lymphocytic leukemia exclusive of patients in first remission without negative prognostic markers; d) relapsed or refractory nonHodgkin's lymphoma or Hodgkin's disease; e)relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma or f)relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
  2. Patients who are considered appropriate for reduced intensity transplantation must present with at least one of the following: A. Age over 50 B. History of a prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant C. Patient with compromised organ function or comorbid conditioning such that a standard ablative transplant would be considered high risk.
  3. Patients will have a related or unrelated donor matched at 5/6 or 6/6 HLA loci.
  4. Patients must be greater than or equal to 18 years old, and younger than or equal to 70 years old to participate in the study.
  5. Patients must have ECOG performance status of 0-2
  6. Pulmonary function tests demonstrate DLCO (adjusted for Hgb)>50% predicted
  7. Cardiac ejection fraction >40%
  8. Laboratories:

    • Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5mg/dL x ULN
    • AST/ALT/Alkaline Phosphatase less than or equal to 2.5x ULN
    • Serum creatinine less than or equal to 1.0mg/dL; if serum creatinine > 1.0MG/dL, then the estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) must be >60mL/min/1.73m^2 as calculated by the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation where Predicted GRF (ml/min/1.73m^2)=186x (serum creatinine)^1.154x(age in years)^-0.023x(0.742 if patient is female) x (1.212 if patient is black)
  9. Patients with serologic evidence of hepatitis B or C exposure will undergo liver biopsy to assess for presence of active hepatitis or fibrosis and quantification of risk of proceeding with transplant.

10. All patients must be capable of understanding the investigational nature, potential risks and benefits of the study, and able to provide valid informed consent. All patients must be informed of the investigational nature of this study and must give written informed consent in accordance with institutional and federal guidelines.

11. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to enrollment.

12. Male and female patients must use an effective contraceptive method during the study and for a minimum of 6 months after study treatment

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients who are HIV+ will be excluded.
  2. Patients must not have serious intercurrent illness such as uncontrolled systemic infection or significant organ compromise which significantly increases the risk of undergoing allogeneic transplantation.
  3. Pregnant and lactating women will be excluded.
