Brief Summary

A Study of Bafetinib as Treatment for Patients with Relapsed or Refractory B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (B-CLL).

Detailed Description

Bafetinib is a dual protein kinase inhibitor, targeting both bcr/abl and Lyn kinases. B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells overexpress Lyn kinase compared to normal B lymphocytes as well as acute...

  • progression after at least one course of an alkylating agent (cyclophosphamide or chlorambucil)
  • relapse within 12 months after at least one course of either a purine nucleoside or an alkylating agent.
  • Capable of providing informed consent and complying with trial procedures.
  • ECOG performance status 0-2.
  • Requires chemotherapy for disease as shown by any of the following criteria:

  • Laboratory values: Screening creatinine clearance (calculated by Cockcroft Gault formula) of less than 50 mL/minute, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal, total bilirubin greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal, white blood cell (WBC) count \<3500/mm3, absolute neutrophil count \<1000/mm3, hematocrit level \<33% for females or \<35% for males.
  • Clinically evident congestive heart failure \>class II of the New York Heart Association (NYHA) guidelines.
  • Serious, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias, defined as the existence of an absolute arrhythmia or ventricular arrhythmias classified as Lown III, IV or V.
  • History or signs of active coronary artery disease with or without angina pectoris.
  • Serious myocardial dysfunction defined scintigraphically (MUGA, myocardial scintigram) or ultrasound determined absolute left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<45% of predicted.
  • Known HIV infection.
  • Uncontrolled active, infection.
  • Major surgery within 3 weeks prior to treatment.
  • Substance abuse or any condition that might interfere with the subject's participation in the study or in the evaluation of the study results.
  • Any condition that in the opinion of the Investigator is unstable and could jeopardize the subject's participation in the study.
