Brief Summary
The goal of Part 1 of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety of the combination of plerixafor and clofarabine when given to patients with previously untreated AML who are at least 6...
Detailed Description
The Study Drugs: Plerixafor is designed to block a protein on cancer cells from attaching to cells in the bone marrow. This may allow cells in the bone marrow to be more effectively treated by chemot...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Age \>/= 60 years
- Diagnosis of untreated AML (de novo, secondary, or with an antecedent hematologic disorder \[AHD\]) according to the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2.
- At least 2 of the following adverse prognostic factors: Age \>/= 70 years; or AHD; or ECOG performance status of = 2; or intermediate or unfavorable (ie, adverse) karyotype defined as any cytogenetic profile except the presence of any of the following: t(8;21)(q22;q22), inv(16)(p13q22) or t(16;16)(p13;q22), t(15;17)(q22;q12) and variants.
- Provide signed, written informed consent.
- Be able to comply with study procedures and follow-up examinations.
- Adequate renal and hepatic function as indicated by all of the following: Total bilirubin \</=1.5 x institutional Upper Limit of Normal (ULN); an Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) \</=2.5 x Upper limits of normal (ULN); and an estimated creatinine clearance (CrCl) of \> 50 mL/min, as calculated by the Cockcroft -Gault equation.
- Adequate cardiac function as measured by at least 1 of the following: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \>/=40% on multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan or similar radionuclide angiographic scan; or Left ventricular fractional fractional shortening \>/=22% on echocardiography exam; or LVEF \>/=40% on echocardiography exam.
- Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to use adequate birth control through the end of the last treatment visit. WOCBP is a women who has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months or who had not undergone previous surgical sterilization.
Exclusion
- Diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), (French-American-British classification M3 or WHO classification of APL with t(15;17)(q22;q12), (PML/RAR alpha fusion gene and variants).
- Prior treatment with clofarabine.
- Prior treatment for AML or an AHD (excluding supportive care, hydroxyurea, hematopoietic cytokines, or lenalidomide \[the latter specifically for an AHD only\]). Hematopoietic cytokines and lenalidomide must not have been received within 14 days prior to first dose of study drug; hydroxyurea is allowed on study to control white blood cell count (WBC) counts. If any of the above treatments have been received for AML or an AHD within the permissible time periods, drug-related toxicities must have recovered to Grade 1 or less prior to first dose of study drug.
- Prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT).
- Prior external beam radiation therapy to the pelvis.
- Investigational agent received within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug. If received any investigational agent prior to this time point, drug-related toxicities must have recovered to Grade 1 or less prior to first dose of study drug.
- Systemic fungal, bacterial, viral, or other infection not controlled (defined as exhibiting ongoing signs/symptoms related to the infection and without improvement, despite appropriate antibiotics or other treatment).
- Any other severe concurrent disease, or have a history of serious organ dysfunction or disease involving the heart, kidney, liver or other organ system that may place the patient at undue risk to undergo therapy with clofarabine.
- Clinical evidence suggestive of central nervous system (CNS) involvement with leukemia unless a lumbar puncture confirms the absence of leukemic blasts in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
- Prior positive test for the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
- WBC \>50 × 10\^9/L; the first 3 patients enrolled on the study will be required to have a WBC of \<20 × 10\^9/L.
- Have psychiatric disorders that would interfere with consent, study participation, or follow-up.
- Have been diagnosed with another malignancy, unless the patient has been disease free for at least 5 years following curative intent therapy, following exceptions: Patients with treated nonmelanoma skin cancer, in situ carcinoma, or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, regardless of disease-free duration, if definitive treatment for the condition has been completed or patients with organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of recurrent or progressive disease based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) values if hormonal therapy has been initiated or radical prostatectomy has been performed.
- Are pregnant or lactating.
