Brief Summary

Clinical Study on the Safety and Effectiveness of low-dose chidamide maintenance therapy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-cell lymphomas.

Detailed Description

This is a phase ll, multi-center, single-arm clinical study.This study is indicated for high-risk of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-cell lymphomas patients. It aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of low-dose chidamide maintenance therapy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-cell lymphomas to prevent relapse. 44 patients will be enrolled. The clinical end points include relapse-free survival, acute or chronic GVHD, non-relapse mortality, and overall survival, etc.

Study Groups

low-dose chidamide maintenance therapy after allo-HSCT

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Chidamide

Intervention Type: DRUG

Chidamide was initiated between days +30 and +100 post-transplant at 10 mg twice weekly (BIW), continued for up to 2 years (24 courses, 4 weeks as a course) or until relapse, intolerable toxicity, or withdrawal. The dose could be escalated to a maximum of 20 mg BIW if MRD became positive during treatment. Donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) was permitted in cases of MRD positivity.
