Brief Summary
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Vidaza (azacitidine) when given to patients with CML after an donor stem cell transplant will increase the likelihood of achieving a complete re...
Detailed Description
Study Drug: Azacitidine is designed to block genes in cancer cells that stop the function of the tumor-fighting genes. By blocking the "bad" genes, the tumor-fighting genes may be able to work better...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Patients with age \<= 75 years with CML in first chronic phase, which has failed to achieve a cytogenetic or molecular complete remission or has progressed after imatinib treatment. Criteria for failure are the international consensus criteria (Appendix H). Patients intolerant to tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy are also eligible.
- Patients with age \<= 75 with CML in accelerated phase or blast crisis that have \<= 15% blasts in the blood and bone marrow at study entry.
- Donor: HLA-compatible related (HLA-A, -B, -DRB1 matched or with one-antigen mismatch) or HLA-compatible unrelated (HLA-A, -B, -C and -DRB1 matched or with one-antigen mismatch).
- Age 18 to 75 years.
- Zubrod performance status \<= 2.
- Left ventricular ejection fraction =\> 40%.
- Pulmonary function test within the following parameters: forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and diffusing capacity of lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) =\> 50% of expected, corrected for hemoglobin.
- Serum creatinine \< 1.5 mg/dL or creatinine clearance greater or equal than 40 cc/min.
- Serum direct bilirubin \< 1.5 mg/dL (unless Gilbert's syndrome)
- Serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) \<= 200 IU/L unless related to patient's malignancy.
- Patients treated with any tyrosine kinase inhibitor, interferon or any experimental therapy are eligible.
- Patients with age \<75 years with CML in second or subsequent chronic phase.
Exclusion
- Uncontrolled infection, not responding to appropriate antimicrobial agents after seven days of therapy.
- Pleural/pericardial effusion or ascites estimated to be \>1L.
- HIV-positive.
- Breast feeding or pregnancy. Pregnancy means a positive beta human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test in a woman with child bearing potential defined as not post-menopausal for 12 months or no previous surgical sterilization.
- Known or suspected hypersensitivity to azacitidine or mannitol.
- Patients with advanced malignant hepatic tumors.
