Trial Outcomes & Findings for CLAG Gleevec in Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) (NCT NCT00955916)

NCT ID: NCT00955916

Last Updated: 2014-06-27

Results Overview

Overall Response Rate: Morphologic Complete Remission (CR) + Morphologic Complete Remission with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) for evaluable participants. CR - Bone Marrow: \< 5% blasts without Auer rods with at least 20% cellularity with maturation of all cell lines, No presence of unique phenotype by flow cytometry identical to what was found in the pretreatment specimen, No persistent dysplasia; Peripheral: normal blood counts, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \> 1.0 k/μl and platelets \> 100 k/μl ANC \> 1.0 k/μl and platelets \> 100 k/μl (Peripheral blood counts documenting recovery can be utilized within 4 weeks of the bone marrow); No evidence of extramedullary leukemia. CRi - All CR criteria are met except for residual Neutropenia \<1.0 x 10\^9/L platelets \< 100 k/μl.

Measure
CLAG Regimen With Gleevec®
Combined chemotherapy treatment (CLAG regimen) with Gleevec® (imatinib mesylate). Gleevec®: Imatinib mesylate 400 mg orally twice daily was administered on day 2 to day 15. Re-induction was allowed if participant had partial response (PR). CLAG Regimen: The CLAG regimen consisted of: Cladribine, 5 mg/m\^2 administered via 2 hour IV daily for 5 consecutive days starting on day 2; Cytarabine, 2 mg/m\^2 administered through a 4 hour IV starting 2 hours after the ignition of Cladribine for 5 days starting on day 2; granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF): 300 mcg subcutaneous (SC) for 6 days starting 12-24 hours (Day 1) before the first dose of Cladribine.
