Summary

This is the study to test combination regimen of Nilotinib and Ruxolitinib therapy for the treatment of patients with Philadelphia positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who is resistant to multiple tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies with BCR-ABL kinase inhibition activity. Ruxolitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor blocking alternative pathway independent of BCR-ABL mediated pathway, thus having a potential to overcome tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance in Philadelphia positive CML or ALL patients. Phase I study will be conducted to define a recommended phase II dose (RPTD) and phase II study will examine the hypothesis that combinational approach will increase response rate of resistant CML/ALL patients, thus evaluating efficacy of the combination regimen.

Conditions

  • Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
  • Accelerated Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
  • Blastic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
  • Philadelphia Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
  • Resistant to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Therapy

Interventions

DRUG

Nilotinib

Nilotinib dose will remain fixed at 400mg bid throughout the cycles. BCR-ABL kinase inhibitor

DRUG

Ruxolitinib

In the phase I part of the study, dose escalation will follow a 3+3 study design at either of 3 fixed dose levels (10 mg bid, 15 mg bid or 20 mg bid). No intra-patient dose-escalation will occur. JAK inhibitor
