Clofarabine, Etoposide, and Mitoxantrone for Relapsed and Refractory Acute Leukemias

Stopped early · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Leukemia

In brief

The purpose of this study is to establish toxicity and a maximum tolerated dose recommended phase 2 dose of Clofarabine in combination with Etoposide and Mitoxantrone for therapy of relapsed or refractory acute leukemias. The investigators will observe responses with these therapy agents and assess the impact of Clofarabine interacting with Etoposide in induction of DNA strand breaks.

• Any significant concurrent disease, illness, or psychiatric disorder that would compromise patient safety or compliance, interfere with consent, study participation, follow-up or interpretation of study results.
• Have had a diagnosis of another malignancy, unless the patient has been disease free for at least 3 years following the completion of curative intent therapy with the following exceptions: patients with treated non-melanoma skin cancer, in situ carcinoma or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, regardless of the disease-free duration, are eligible for the study if definitive treatment for the condition has been completed. Patients with organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of recurrent or progressive disease based on prostate-specific antigen values are also eligible for this study if hormonal therapy has been initiated or a radical prostatectomy has been performed. Additionally, patients with prostate cancer treated with radiation therapy are also eligible for the study.
