NCT00502905

Brief Summary

Primary Objectives:

  1. 1.To administer multiple doses of an intravenous formulation of busulfan (Bu) at a dose adjusted to yield a blood drug level with a median daily area under the plasma concentration curve (AUC) of approximately 6,500 µMol-min. This dose will be given intravenously over three hours once daily for four (4) days, in combination with Fludarabine at a dose of 40 mg/m2 as preparation for bone marrow or peripheral stern cell transplantation in patients with acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes.
  2. 2.To determine the outcome of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)/myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients undergoing treatment with this regimen. Data regarding engraftment, toxicity, relapse rate, long-term (disease-free) outcome, and overall survival will be collected.
  3. 3.To determine the safety profile of this regimen when utilized as preparation for allogeneic transplantation.
  4. 4.To describe the plasma pharmacokinetics of busulfan when administered intravenously in this regimen.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Successful Engraftment

    Successful Engraftment defined as first of 3 consecutive days with Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) equal to or more than 0.5 \* 10\^9/L. Failure to engraft by day +30 considered primary engraftment failure. Study period one week prior to transplant through post Day 28.

    Study period one week prior to transplant through post Day 28

Study Arms (1)

Busulfan + Fludarabine

EXPERIMENTAL

Once a day for four days, Busulfan 130 mg/m\^2 through intravenous catheter over 3 hours immediately after Fludarabine 40 mg/m\^2 over 1 hour.

Drug: BusulfanDrug: Fludarabine

Interventions

130 mg/m\^2 injected through the intravenous catheter over three hours, once a day, for four days, starting immediately after Fludarabine.

Also known as: Busulfex, Myleran
Busulfan + Fludarabine

40 mg/m\^2 through a central venous catheter over one hour, once a day, for four days.

Also known as: Fludarabine Phosphate, Fludara
Busulfan + Fludarabine

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 66 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Acute leukemia past first remission, in first or subsequent relapse, in first remission (high-risk, i.e., cytogenetics other than t(8;21, inv 16, t(15;17)) or induction failures.
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes in any clinical stage, excluding only patients who have isolated stable mono-cytopenia and who are clinically stable.
  • Patient has not been administered any other systemic chemotherapeutic drug (including Mylotarg) within 21 days prior to trial enrollment (BMT Day -7 or BMT day -9). (Hydroxyurea and intrathecal chemotherapy is permitted).
  • No uncontrolled infection.
  • Patients up to age 65 will be eligible for this study.
  • ALLOGENEIC TRANSPLANTATION:
  • Patients should have an acceptable related or unrelated volunteer donor available for a bone marrow peripheral blood progenitor cell or cord blood transplant. Bone marrow and peripheral blood cell donors should be matched for at least 5 of 6 HLA A, B and DR loci. Cord blood donors should be matched for at least 4 of 6 A, B and DR loci.
  • Life expectancy is not severely limited.
  • Pulmonary, cardio, renal and liver function tests normal.
  • In patients \< 7 years pulmonary function will be assessed per pediatric BMT routine.
  • No evidence of chronic active hepatitis or cirrhosis.
  • HIV-negative.
  • Female patient is not pregnant
  • Signed informed consent.
  • Patient admitted on Sunday, or Monday to allow for pharmacokinetic directed therapy.

You may not qualify if:

  • \) Not fulfilling eligibility criteria above.
