Cilengitide in Treating Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia
This study has been completed.
Sponsors and Collaborators: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Information provided by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00089388
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Cilengitide may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well cilengitide works in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia.


Condition Intervention Phase

Drug: cilengitide
Phase II

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Active Control
Official Title: A Phase 2 Study of EMD 121974 as Maintenance Therapy for Patinets With Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Complete Remission

Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Relapse-free survival as measured by complete remission at 10 months [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Overall survival assessed every 3 months [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Safety and toxicity as measured by AdEERS reports, complete blood counts including differentials and platelet count, and blood chemistry every 2 weeks during the first course and then on day 1 of subsequent courses [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 70
Study Start Date: October 2005
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine 10-month relapse-free survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemia in first complete remission treated with cilengitide as maintenance therapy.

Secondary

  • Determine overall survival of patients treated with this drug.
  • Determine the safety and toxicity of this drug in these patients.
  • Determine the biological activity of this drug in cells from these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized study. Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive cilengitide IV at a lower dose over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks.
  • Arm II: Patients receive cilengitide IV at a higher dose over 1 hour twice weekly for 4 weeks.

In both arms, courses repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease relapse or unacceptable toxicity.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 70 patients (35 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study within 17.5-24 months.
