AML/MDS Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Randomized Phase II Multicenter Study to Assess the Tolerability and Efficacy of the Addition of Midostaurin to 10-day Decitabine Treatment in Unfit Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia and High Risk Myelodysplasia Patients
The aim of this study is to investigate how safe and effective the addition of the new medicine midostaurin to decitabine is for the treatment of unfit acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and high-risk myelodysplasia (MDS) patients. Patients who are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy because of accompanying diseases may opt for gentler treatment. This does not produce a cure but serves to allow the quality of life to be acceptable for as long as possible. Decitabine is an example of a gentler treatment. It is effective against leukemia and has fewer side effects than intensive chemotherapy. Given in courses of 5 successive days, decitabine is registered for the treatment of AML. There is scientific research to suggest that decitabine is more effective and generally well tolerated when given in courses of 10 successive days. Therefore, treatment with 10-day courses of decitabine is the standard treatment in this scientific research. The aim is to investigate whether this standard treatment can be improved by adding a new product, midostaurin. Midostaurin is a medicine that is directed against a specific protein on leukaemia cells (FLT3).
This trial aims to develop effective treatments for unfit (i.e. Hematopoietic cell transplantation co-morbidity index (HCT-CI) ≥ 3) in adult (≥ 18 yrs) AML patients, for whom current treatment strategies are highly unsatisfactory. Therefore new treatment modalities are introduced and evaluated in multiple parallel randomized phase II studies that will be conducted within the frame of a master protocol. The scheme of this new design consists of one arm with one of the currently considered best available treatments for unfit AML patients (i.e. 10-day decitabine). After a maximum of 3 10-day courses, or less in case of good response, treatment will be continued with 5-day decitabine courses. This treatment will be compared to investigational treatments in combination with decitabine. The competitor of the 10-day decitabine schedule will be 10-day decitabine combined (sequential) with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor midostaurin (independent of the presence of FLT3 mutations). The rationale for midostaurin is: 1) single agent midostaurin has shown efficacy in both FLT3 wild type and mutant AML; 2) it has shown efficacy in a phase III randomized controlled trial when combined with intensive chemotherapy in FLT3-mutated AML (RATIFY study); 3) midostaurin has been successfully combined with hypomethylating agents (azacitidine and decitabine) and improved the response compared with historical response rates of these drugs, suggesting at least additive affects of midostaurin with hypomethylating agents. ;
