Evaluation of CPX-351 Monotherapy in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Secondary to Myeloproliferative Neoplasm
Study Purpose
The three classic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) include polycythemia Vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). The natural history of these MPNs is the possible progression to acute myeloid leukemia (MPN-blast phase) at variable percentage depending the entity. Leukemic transformation of MPN occurs in 8% to 23% of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) patients in the first 10 years after diagnosis and in 4% to 8% of polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocytosis (ET) patients within 18 years after diagnosis. The risk for leukemic transformation is increased by exposure to cytotoxic chemotherapy. The molecular pathogenesis of MPN-blast phase remains an area of active research. The prognosis of blast phase MPNs is very poor : approximately 50% of the patients are deemed eligible for intensive treatment (ie. conventional induction chemotherapy regimen with anthracyclines and cytarabine). The patients who are not fit for such intensive treatment approach due to age or comorbidities, are treated with Hypomethylating agents, low dose palliative chemotherapy, or supportive care. Nevertheless, there is a need for more effective and better tolerated treatment approaches in order to increase the response rate and hence, the transplant rates which should translate into improved survival. CPX-351 is a new formulation of cytarabine and daunorubicin encapsulated at a fixed 5:1 molar-ratio in liposomes that exploits molar ratio-dependent drug-drug synergy to enhance antileukemic efficacy. Based on similarities between post-myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and post-MPN secondary AML in terms of disease resistance to chemotherapy, of fragile patient profile, The hypotheses made is that CPX-351 may improve the results of induction chemotherapy without increasing its toxicity and therefore may increase the proportion of patients who could benefit from an allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation (SCT).

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial Details
Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT04992949 |
Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
