Clinical Trial Summary

This phase II trial studies the side effects and best dose of iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8 when given together with fludarabine phosphate, total-body irradiation, and donor stem cell transplant followed by cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome that has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. Giving chemotherapy drugs, such as fludarabine phosphate, and total-body irradiation before a donor peripheral blood stem cell transplant helps stop the growth of cancer or abnormal cells and helps stop the patient's immune system from rejecting the donor's stem cells. Also, radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies, such as iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8, can find cancer cells and carry cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. When the healthy stem cells from a donor are infused into the patient they may help the patient's bone marrow make stem cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can make an immune response against the body's normal cells. Giving fludarabine phosphate and total-body irradiation before the transplant together with cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening. Giving a radiolabeled monoclonal antibody together with donor stem cell transplant, cyclosporine, and mycophenolate mofetil may be an effective treatment for advanced acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the transplant-related mortality (TRM) and toxicity of delivering 131I-BC8 (iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8) (anti-cluster of differentiation [CD]45 antibody) at a starting dose of 22 Gy to the normal organ receiving the highest dose in combination with the non-myeloablative regimen of fludarabine (fludarabine phosphate) (FLU), 2 Gy total body irradiation (TBI), cyclosporine (CSP), mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related or unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in patients 16 to 50 years old who have advanced acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or high risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

II. To estimate rates of donor chimerism resulting from this combined preparative regimen and to correlate level of donor chimerism with estimated radiation doses delivered to hematopoietic tissues via antibody.

III. To determine rates of disease relapse, graft vs. host disease, and 2-year disease-free survival in patients receiving 131I-BC8 antibody combined with FLU, 2 Gy TBI, CSP, MMF, and HLA-matched related or unrelated allogeneic HSCT.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8.

RADIOIMMUNOTHERAPY: Patients receive therapeutic iodine I 131 monoclonal antibody BC8 intravenously (IV) on day -12.

CONDITIONING: Patients receive fludarabine phosphate IV on days -4 to -2 and undergo TBI on day 0.

TRANSPLANTATION: After completion of TBI, patients undergo allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplant on day 0.

IMMUNOSUPPRESSION: Patients with a matched related donor receive cyclosporine IV or orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days -3 to 56 followed by a taper to day 180 in the absence of graft-versus-host disease. Beginning 4-6 hours after PBSC transplant, these patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil PO BID on days 0 to 27. Patients with a matched unrelated donor receive cyclosporine IV or PO BID on days -3 to 100 followed by a taper to day 180. Beginning 4-6 hours after PBSC transplant, these patients also receive mycophenolate mofetil PO thrice daily (TID) on days 0 to 40 followed by a taper to day 96.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months and then annually thereafter.

• Patients must have an HLA-identical sibling donor or an HLA-matched unrelated donor who meets standard Seattle Cancer Care Alliance (SCCA) and/or National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) or other donor center criteria for peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donation; related donors should be matched by molecular methods at the intermediate resolution level at HLA-A, B, C, and developmentally regulated RNA binding protein 1 (DRB1) according to Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC) Standard Practice Guidelines and to the allele level at DQB1; unrelated donors should be identified using matching criteria that follows the FHCRC Standard Practice Guidelines limiting the study to eligible donors that are allele matched for HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, and DQB1 (grade 1), and accepting up to one allele mismatch as per Standard Practice grade 2.1 for HLA-A, B, or C

• DONOR: Donors must meet HLA matching criteria as well as standard SCCA and/or NMDP or other donor center criteria for PBSC donation

Exclusion Criteria:

• Circulating antibody against mouse immunoglobulin (human anti-mouse antibody [HAMA])

• Prior radiation to maximally tolerated levels to any normal organ

• Patients may not have symptomatic coronary artery disease and may not be on cardiac medications for anti-arrhythmic or inotropic effects

• Inability to understand or give an informed consent

• Patients who are seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)

• Perceived inability to tolerate diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, particularly treatment in radiation isolation

• Patients who have previously undergone autologous or allogeneic HSCT

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLT) 100 Days After Transplant	The criteria of Grade III/IV regimen-related toxicity (Bearman) or dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) are as follows: Grade 1 Development of transient chemical abnormalities which are not of major clinical consequence and which reverse without requiring major medical interventions. In general, the intent of this toxicity scale is to observe transient target organ toxicity which is reversible.; Grade 2 Development of chemical or laboratory abnormalities that are persistent and which may represent target organ damage that may not be readily reversed. It is anticipated that at this dose of the drug, the toxicity obtained would be manageable by clinical methods but may interfere with other therapies.; Grade 3 Development of major clinical, chemical or laboratory abnormalities which represent maximum toxicities without being fatal. This grade of toxicity is designed to be the dose-limiting toxicity.	Up to 100 days post-transplant
Secondary	Number of Participants With Transplant Related Mortality Within 100 Days After Transplant	Number of participants that received and completed study treatment who died within 100 days after transplant	Up to 100 days post-transplant
Secondary	Participant Disease Response Within 4 Weeks After Transplant	The number of participants that are in complete remission (CR) or relapsed within 4 weeks after transplant.; Complete Remission is defined as complete resolution of all signs of leukemia for at least four weeks with all of the following: Normal bone marrow with blasts <5% with normal cellularity, normal megakarypoiesis, more than 15% erythropoiesis and more than 25% granulocytopoiesis.; Normalization of blood counts (no blasts, platelets >100,000/mm3, granulocytes >1,500/mm3).; No extramedullary disease.; Relapse is measured as follows: After CR: >5% blasts in the bone marrow and/or peripheral blood.; Confirmation of relapse by bone marrow analysis with more than 10% blasts.; Extramedullary disease confirmed cytologically or histologically.	4 weeks after transplant
Secondary	Severity of Acute GVHD in Patients Who Completed the Study Treatment	The severity of acute GVHD is measured based on Graft-vs-Host Disease: Severity of GVHD Grade I +1 to +2 skin rash No gut or liver involvement; Grade II +3 skin rash or; 1 gastrointestinal involvement and/or +1 liver involvement; Grade III +2 to +4 gastrointestinal involvement and/or; 2 to +4 liver involvement with or without a rash; Grade IV Pattern and severity of GVHD similar to grade 3 with extreme constitutional symptoms or death	100 days after transplant
