If WBC ≥ 13 G/L: two or more of the following criteria:
-
Clonal cytogenetic abnormality other than t(5;12) (q33; p13)
-
ANC > 16 G/L
-
Anemia (Hb < 100 g/L)
-
Extramedullary localization (documented cutaneous, pleural or pericardial effusion, etc…) And having resisted (progression or stable disease without hematological improvement according to International Working Group (IWG) 2006 criteria) or relapsed after a treatment with a hypomethylating agent (azacitidine or decitabine for a minimum of 6 cycles)
-
Blast cells ≤ 5% in the bone marrow
-
Performance status 0-2 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Scale
-
Serum Creatinin < 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN)
-
Alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) < 3 ULN, total bilirubin < 1.5 ULN (except Gilbert Syndrome)
-
Adequate contraception if relevant
-
Signed informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
-
CMML with t(5 ;12) or Platelet-derived growth factor beta receptor (PDGFbetaR) rearrangement
-
Acute blastic transformation of CMML with bone marrow blast cells > 20%
-
Bone marrow blast cells > 5%
-
Patients eligible for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation with an identified donor
-
Intensive chemotherapy given less than 3 months before inclusion
-
Pregnant or breastfeeding
-
Hepatitis C infection
-
Splenomegaly > 16 cm by ultrasound or CT scan (Not Applicable in patients without palpable splenomegaly)
-
Significant (grade II-IV) myelofibrosis (bone marrow trephine if bone marrow aspirate with poor cellularity, or features of myelofibrosis on the peripheral blood smear (teardrop erythrocytes)
-
Clinically relevant thromboembolic risk factor which, in the investigator's opinion, is such that the benefit/risk ratio becomes unfavourable if platelet counts increase
-
Liver cirrhosis (Child-Pugh score ≥ 5)
-
Prior Cancer (except in situ cervix carcinoma, limited basal cell carcinoma, or other tumors if not active during the last 3 years)
-
Serious concomitant systemic disorder, including active bacterial, fungal or viral infection that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the safety of the patient and/or his/her ability to complete the study.
-
Hypersensitivity to Eltrombopag
