Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This research study is evaluating how a drug called lenalidomide, given in combination with the standard chemotherapy regimen of Mitoxantrone, Etoposide, and Cytarabine, commonly referred to as MEC, works in individuals with either relapsed or refractory AML

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 2

Detailed Description

This research study is a Phase II clinical trial. Phase II clinical trials test the safety and effectiveness of an investigational intervention to learn whether the intervention works in treating a specific disease. "Investigational" means that the intervention is being studied.

The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not approved lenalidomide for this specific disease, but it has been approved for other uses, including for patients with multiple myeloma and some patients with myelodysplastic syndrome. This treatment is investigational because it is not approved by the FDA for patients with AML. Lenalidomide is a chemotherapy that also modulates the immune system, and is in a category of drugs called immunomodulatory drugs or IMIDs. Some research studies suggest that lenalidomide may be effective in patients with AML. Since the investigators know that many patients who receive MEC chemotherapy alone have less than desired response rates and overall shorter periods of remission (time free from leukemia) after treatment, the investigators are studying whether the addition of lenalidomide to MEC improves upon typical responses.

The combination of MEC (mitoxantrone, etoposide, and cytarabine) is a standard treatment option, commonly used for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Lenalidomide and MEC chemotherapy

Lenalidomide is taken orally on a daily basis days 1-10. Mitoxantrone, Etoposide, and Cytarabine are administered intravenously on a daily basis for days 4 through 8 of the treatment. There is only one cycle of treatment in this study.

Drug: Etoposide
A Drug that interfere with the action of topoisomerase enzymes (topoisomerase I and II). Topoisomerase enzymes control the manipulation of the structure of DNA necessary for replication.
Other Names:
  • Toposar
  • Drug: Cytarabine
    Cytarabine is an antimetabolite antineoplastic agent that inhibits the synthesis of DNA.
    Other Names:
  • Depocyt
  • Drug: Lenalidomide
    It may act by inhibiting the growth of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) in tumors, enhancing the status of the immune system, or decreasing cytokine and growth factor production
    Other Names:
  • REVLIMID
  • Drug: Mitoxantrone
    It interfere with cell reproduction
    Other Names:
  • Novantrone
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Complete Response Rate [up to 45 days]

      Proportion of patients who have achieve CR or CRp after treatment. Morphologic Complete Remission (CR): Defined as morphologic leukemia-free state, including <5% blasts in Bone Marrow aspirate with marrow spicules, no persistent extramedullary disease, ANC >1000/mm3 and platelet count >100,000/mm3. Morphologic Complete Remission without platelet recovery (CRp): Defined as CR with the exception of platelet count < 100,000/mm3 (CRp).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Number of Patients That Achieved ANC Recovery [up to 45 days]

      The number of patients that achieved a neutrophil count of > 500/mm3 for 3 days within 45 of starting treatment

    2. Number of Patients That Achieved Platelet Recovery [up to 45 days]

      The number of patients that achieved a stable platelet count > 20,000/mm3 for 3 days within 45 days of starting treatment

    3. Treatment-related Mortality [50 days]

      Cumulative number of deaths not related to persistent or relapsed leukemia during treatment within 50 days of the start of treatment.

    4. Transfusion Support: Number of Red Blood Cell and Platelet Transfusions [50 days]

      Number of red blood cell and platelet transfusions received within the first 50 days of treatment

    5. Overall Survival [Up to 3 years]

      Overall survival is defined as time from diagnosis of disease until date of death or censored on the last known date alive if patients are still alive.

    6. Relapse-Free Survival [Up to 3 years]

      Relapse-Free Survival is defined as time from diagnosis of disease until date of relapse, death, or censored on the last known date alive if patients are still alive.Relapse is defined by morphological evidence of the original malignancy consistent with pre-treatment features.
