Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant With Clofarabine, Busulfan and Antithymocyte Globulin (ATG) for Adult Patients With High-risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia/Myelodysplastic Syndromes (AML/MDS) or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

NCT00863148 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Summary

Clofarabine is known to have a stronger anti-tumor effect than Fludarabine and has shown its efficacy in treating aggressive acute leukemias. In addition, evidence is that it is well-tolerated with manageable side effects especially in elderly patients. Thus, replacing Fludarabine with Clofarabine in a reduced intensity transplant regimen may provide a regimen with increased anti-tumor activity without adding significant risks of toxicity.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of clofarabine in combination with IV busulfan and ATG as the backbone of a reduced intensity conditioning regimen for allogeneic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of patients with high-risk MDS/AML or ALL not eligible to conventional or standard myeloablative allo-SCT.

DRUG

Clofarabine in combination with IV busulfan and ATG

A conservative approach has been used for the determination of the dose due to the high risk studied population, e.g., decrease to 30 mg m²/day for a 4-day course of clofarabine. Clofarabine will be started at Day -8 to allow improvement of liver function tests, if any, by time of allo-HSCT. Clofarabine (C) 30 mg/m²/day for 4 days (day -8 to day-5). Busilvex (B): 3.2 mg/kg/day for 2 days (day -4 and day-3)Thymoglobuline (T): 2.5 mg/Kg/day for 2 days (day -2 and day-1). Graft (G) at day 0 GVHD prophylaxis: Cyclosporine 3 mg/kg/day starting day-1. Genzyme provided supplies of clofarabine for all patients included in the study.
