Clinical Trial Summary

This is an open label, prospective, single institution dose-escalation study. The patient population includes non-induction candidate elderly patients with AML or MDS and/or patients with high-risk or relapsed/refractory AML or MDS. Five dose cohorts will be evaluated using a fixed dose of ATRA in combination with an escalating dose of dasatinib. The investigators will treat with an escalating dose of dasatinib from 70mg to 140mg daily. Dose escalation will proceed in a standard 3+3 fashion. A de-escalation to a 50 mg total daily dose of dasatinib is planned if DLT is greater than or equal to 33% is observed at the first dose level. Once the MTD for the combination of the drugs has been established, up to 6 additional patients will be enrolled at the MTD level to obtain additional safety information about the combination and to allow for preliminary laboratory correlate analysis.


Description:

Primary Objective:

1. To determine the safety and tolerability of the combination of dasatinib and ATRA in relapsed or elderly, non-induction candidate acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or MDS patients and to identify the maximally tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLT).

Secondary Objectives:

1. To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of dasatinib and ATRA when administered as combination therapy for patients with AML or MDS

2. To determine if the combination therapy of dasatinib and ATRA promotes differentiation of AML or MDS .

Eligibility Inclusion

- Informed consent

- Performance Status (ECOG) less than or equal to 3

- Subjects ages 18 or older

- Confirmed diagnosis of non-APL AML (WHO criteria) or high-risk MDS (IPSS criteria INT-2 or High)

- For subjects Age <65: Refractory AML or AML relapse within six months of attaining remission or AML relapse more than six months after achieving a remission, who cannot achieve a second remission or Untreated subjects who develop AML after preexisting hematologic disease or Secondary AML or high-risk MDS who either are not a candidate for hypomethylating agents or who have failed one or more hypomethylating agent

- For subjects Age =65: De novo AML not candidates for induction chemotherapy or Refractory AML or AML relapse within six months of attaining remission or AML relapse more than six months after achieving a remission, who cannot achieve a second remission or Untreated subjects who develop AML after preexisting hematologic disease Secondary AML or high-risk MDS who either are not a candidate for hypomethylating agents or who have failed one or more hypomethylating agent

- Life expectancy of at least 2 months

- Adequate Organ Function: Total bilirubin < 2.0 times the institutional Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), Hepatic enzymes (AST, ALT ) = 2.5 times the institutional ULN, Serum Creatinine < 2.0 times the institutional ULN

- Ability to take oral medication (dasatinib must be swallowed whole)

- Concomitant Medications: Patient agrees to discontinue St. Johns Wort while receiving dasatinib therapy (discontinue St. Johns Wort at least 5 days before starting dasatinib). Patient agrees that IV bisphosphonates will be withheld for the 4 weeks of dasatinib therapy due to risk of hypocalcemia.

- Age and Sex: Men and women, age 18-100. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must be using an adequate method of contraception to avoid pregnancy throughout the study and for up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug to minimize the risk of pregnancy. WOCBP include any woman who has experienced menarche and who has not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or who is not post-menopausal. Post-menopause is defined as: Amenorrhea that has lasted for >= 12 consecutive months without another cause, or For women with irregular menstrual periods who are taking hormone replacement therapy (HRT), a documented serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level of greater than 35 mIU/mL. Women who are using oral contraceptives, other hormonal contraceptives (vaginal products, skin patches, or implanted or injectable products), or mechanical products such as an intrauterine device or barrier methods (diaphragm, condoms, spermicides) to prevent pregnancy, or who are practicing abstinence or where their partner is sterile (eg, vasectomy) should be considered to be of childbearing potential. WOCBP must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 72 hours before the start of the investigational product. A male subject of fathering potential must use an adequate method of contraception to avoid conception throughout the study [and for up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug] to minimize the risk of pregnancy. A barrier method is recommended.

Exclusion:

- Sex and Reproductive Status: WOCBP who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study period and for at least 4 weeks after the last dose of study drug. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Women with a positive pregnancy test. Sexually active fertile men not using effective birth control if their partners are WOCBP.
