[Note: *Required for patients with solid tumors] Expected Enrollment 40A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study. Outcomes Primary Outcome(s)Maximum tolerated dose of cediranib and dose-limiting toxicity in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors Safety and tolerability of cediranib in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) Pharmacokinetics of cediranib in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or AML
Secondary Outcome(s)Pharmacodynamics of cediranib in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or AML Response to cediranib in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors or AML
Outline This is an open-label, dose-escalation study. Patients are stratified according to diagnosis (solid tumor vs acute myeloid leukemia). - Stratum 1 (solid tumors): Patients receive oral cediranib once daily on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of cediranib until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity during the first course of therapy. Up to 9 patients, preferably at least 3 patients < 12 years of age and at least 3 patients ≥ 12 years of age, are treated at the MTD.
- Stratum 2 (acute myeloid leukemia): Patients receive cediranib as in stratum 1 at one dose level below the solid tumor MTD OR at the solid tumor MTD.
Patients undergo blood collection periodically during study for pharmacologic and pharmacodynamic correlative studies.

Note: The purpose of most clinical trials listed in this database is to test new cancer treatments, or new methods of diagnosing, screening, or preventing cancer. Because all potentially harmful side effects are not known before a trial is conducted, dose and schedule modifications may be required for participants if they develop side effects from the treatment or test. The therapy or test described in this clinical trial is intended for use by clinical oncologists in carefully structured settings, and may not prove to be more effective than standard treatment. A responsible investigator associated with this clinical trial should be consulted before using this protocol. Back to Top |
