Trial Outcomes & Findings for Ruxolitinib Phosphate or Dasatinib With Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Philadelphia Chromosome-Like Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (NCT NCT02420717)

NCT ID: NCT02420717

Last Updated: 2025-06-08

Results Overview

The method of Thall, Simon and Estey will be used for toxicity monitoring for this study. The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 whenever possible. Safety data will be summarized by category, severity and frequency.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 42 days

Population: Two out of nine participants were not Analyzed for response because they did not receive all planned study medication.

The method of Thall, Simon and Estey will be used for toxicity monitoring for this study. The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 whenever possible. Safety data will be summarized by category, severity and frequency.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 42 days

Population: Two out of five participants in the Ruxolitinib 15mg arm were not Analyzed for response because they did not receive all planned study medication.

Complete Response (CR) is disappearance of all clinical and/or radiologic evidence of disease, Neutrophil count ≥ 1.0 x 10\^9/L, Platelet count ≥ 100 x 10\^9/L, Normal bone marrow differential (≤ 5% blasts), No extra-medullary leukemia. Complete Remission with Incomplete Blood Count Recovery (CRi) is CR except for ANC \< 1.0 x 10\^9/L and/or platelets \< 100 x 10\^9/L.
