NCT00701766

Brief Summary

The present trial will be performed to determine the MTD and to evaluate the efficacy of BI 2536 in the treatment of elderly patients with relapsed or refractory AML. Different schedules will be compared to identify the better dosing schedule for the further development programme of BI 2536. Dose escalation starting with the maximum tolerated dose previously determined in patients with advanced solid cancers will be performed to determine the maximum tolerated dose for AML patients.

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Male or female patients older than 60 years of age
  • Patient with confirmed AML (except for APL) according to the WHO definition who relapsed after or are refractory to prior chemotherapy
  • Leukocyte count \<= 25,000 /mcl (25 x 10e9/Liter)
  • Patient not eligible for intensive treatment options
  • Life expectancy \>= 2 months
  • Eastern co-operative oncology group performance score of 2 or less
  • Signed written informed consent consistent with international conference on harmonisation - good clinical practice (ICH-GCP) and local legislation

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient with acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL, AML of the French-American-British (FAB) classification subtype M3)
  • Hypersensitivity to the trial drug or the excipients
  • Secondary malignancy requiring therapy
  • Known central nervous system involvement
  • Aspartate amino transferase (AST) or alanine amino transferase (ALT) greater than 2.5 times the upper limit of normal, or AST or ALT greater than 5 times the upper limit of normal in case of known liver involvement
  • Bilirubin greater than 1.5 mg/dl (\> 26 mcmol/l, SI unit equivalent)
  • Serum creatinine greater than 2.0 mg/dl
  • Concomitant intercurrent illness, which would compromise the evaluation of efficacy or safety of the trial drug, e.g. active severe infection, unstable angina pectoris or cardiac arrhythmia
  • Psychiatric illness or social situation that would limit compliance with trial requirements
  • Concomitant therapy, which is considered relevant for the evaluation of the efficacy or safety of the trial drug
  • Chemotherapy (except hydroxyurea) or immunotherapy or treatment with any other investigational drug within the past four weeks prior to treatment with the trial drug
  • Persistence of toxicities of prior anti-leukaemia therapies which are deemed to be clinically relevant
  • Patients who are sexually active and unwilling to use a medically acceptable method of contraception during the trial (hormonal contraception, intrauterine device, condom with spermicide, etc.)
