ORACLE: Open Label Phase II Study of BAY 43-9006 in Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) Patients Resistant to Gleevec
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the anti-cancer activity and safety of Bay 43-006, in patients who have Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia that resisted to Gleevec treatment, one of the standard medication administered for these patients.

Experimental: Arm 1

Drug: Nexavar (Sorafenib, BAY43-9006)
Patients will receive Bay 43-9006 400 mg po twice daily in a continuous, uninterrupted schedule. Treatment will continue until there is objective evidence of disease progression, or until evidence of toxicities that are unacceptable and thought to be related to study drug, which requires discontinuation of drug, or due to withdrawn patient consent.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- To determine the major hematologic response rate (i.e. complete and partial hematologic responses) associated with BAY 43-9006 in patients with chronic phase CML resistant to Gleevec. [Every 3 months]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- To determine the cytogenetic response rate associated with BAY 43-9006. [Every 3 months]
- To evaluate the duration of hematologic response to BAY 43-9006. [Throughout study until end of response]
- To evaluate the duration of cytogenetic response to BAY 43-9006. [Throughout study until end of response]
- To assess time to progression. [Until event occurs]
- To assess overall survival.. [During Follow up]
- To evaluate the molecular response and to perform the pharmacodynamic assessment by analysis the following biomarkers: phospho-Erk, Crkl, phospho-S6 [At 2 months and at last visit]
- To assess the safety of BAY 43-9006 in patients with chronic phase CML resistant to Gleevec. [Ongoing]
