Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study uses a drug called dasatinib to produce an anti-cancer effect called large granular lymphocyte cellular expansion. Large granular lymphocytes are blood cells known as natural killer cells that remove cancer cells. Researchers think that dasatinib may cause large granular lymphocyte expansion to happen in patients who have received a blood stem cell transplant (SCT) between 3 to 15 months after the SCT. In this research study, researchers want to find how well dasatinib can be tolerated, the best dose to take of dasatinib and how to estimate how often large granular lymphocytic cellular expansion happens at the best dose of dasatinib.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Dasatinib

This is a phase 1 dose escalation study, using a standard 3+3 design. Dasatinib is administered orally once daily in the outpatient setting. Patients who are day 100-180 post transplant will be eligible. The treatment will be started as close to day 100 as possible. The range of days is provided to ensure that patients have recovered from toxicities associated with ASCT and are not deemed ineligible if they were recovering from any toxicity associated with ASCT at day 100.The starting dose of dasatinib is 20 mg daily. The increment of dose escalation is 20 mg per dose level. Thus, there will be 5 dose levels (20 mg, 40 mg, 60 mg, 80 mg and 100 mg, respectively) with 3 patients in each cohort. Patients will continue on dasatinib for 6 months.

Drug: Dasatinib
Patients receive dasatinib PO every day (QD) for 6 months.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of dasatinib [2 months]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Estimate the non-DLTs associated with administration of dasatinib in allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) recipients [Up to 6 months post treatment]

    2. Estimate the incidence of large granular lymphocytosis (LGL) and its clinical course in recipients of ASCT [Up to 6 months]

    3. Perform correlative in vitro studies to see if the large granular lymphocytes show enhanced cytotoxicity to leukemia/ lymphoma cell lines [Prior to day 1 administration of dasatinib and thereafter every 4 weeks]

    • Dasatinib use prior to ASCT is allowed

    • Performance status >= 60%

    • Presence of large granular lymphocyte (LGL) clone prior to enrollment will not be an exclusion criterion if the LGL clone is < 25% of T cell population
