ML-DS 2018

Phase III Clinical Trial for CPX-351 in Myeloid Leukemia in Children with Down Syndrome 2018

Disease

Myeloid Leukemia in Children associated with Down Sydrome

Type
Prospective, open-label, non-randomized, historically-controlled phase III trial
Rationale / Objectives

Primary objective

Achieving an event-free survival, which is not inferior to the ML-DS 2006 trial (87±3%).

Secondary objectives

  • Reduction of toxicity: severe adverse events (CTCAE v4.0 grade III or higher)
  • Evaluation of response
  • Identification of prognostic factors (e.g. trisomy 8) concerning the risk of relapse,
  • toxicity and poor outcome
  • To evaluate the role of different methods in the determination of minimal residual
  • disease measurement
Therapy / Study arms

The single-arm noninferiority trial will be compared against the historical control (ML-DS 2006 trial) with eventfree survival as the primary endpoint.I will be investigated, whether the substituting of course 1 and 2 of standard ML-DS therapy (defined as ML-DS 2006 protocol) with CPX-351 and reduction of treatment intensity in course 4 for patients with a good response (<0.1% blasts in the bone marrow after course 1) does not result in inferior event-free survival.
