A Phase II Pilot Study of Bortezomib (PS-341, Velcade) Combined With Reinduction Chemotherapy in Children and Young Adults With Recurrent, Refractory or Secondary Acute Myeloid Leukemia
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating idarubicin, cytarabine, and 3 other interventions for Adult Acute Monoblastic Leukemia (M5a) and 21 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 52 participants across 82 sites in 3 countries.
Detailed Summary
This phase II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bortezomib and to see how well it works when given together with combination chemotherapy in treating younger patients with recurrent, refractory, or secondary acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as idarubicin, cytarabine, and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells
