Brief Summary

Clofarabine is a drug approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for treating children (age 1-21) with leukemia. This research study will use clofarabine with two other cancer fighting drugs. Clofarabine will be used together with etoposide (VePesid®, VP-16) and cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan®).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Achievement of Complete Remission (CR) at Reinduction

    Between Days 22-36 or on Day 43 and weekly thereafter if peripheral counts haven't recovered

  • Death

    Number of participants who died.

    From the first dose of study therapy until 30 days after last therapy dose

  • Renal and Hepatic Function:
  • +7 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with Down Syndrome.
  • Prior treatment with Clofarabine.
  • Previous history of veno-occlusive disease (VOD) or findings consistent with a diagnosis of VOD, defined as: conjugated serum bilirubin \> 1.4 mg/dL AND unexplained weight gain greater than 10% of baseline weight or ascites AND hepatomegaly or right upper quadrant pain without another explanation, OR reversal of portal vein flow on ultrasound, OR pathological confirmation of VOD on liver biopsy.

  • Positive blood culture within 48 hours of study registration.
  • Patient required supplemental oxygen or vasopressors within 48 hours of study (Oxygen after anesthesia for procedures is ok).
  • Patient is receiving or plans to receive concomitant chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or immunotherapy other than as specified in the protocol.
  • Use of investigational agents within 30 days or any anticancer therapy within 2 weeks before planned drug initiation with the exception of hydroxyurea or intrathecal therapy given with the diagnostic lumbar puncture.
  • Have any other severe concurrent disease, or have a history of serious organ dysfunction or disease involving the heart, kidney, liver, or other organ system that may place the patient at undue risk to undergo treatment.
  • Pregnant or lactating patients.
  • Any significant concurrent disease, illness, psychiatric disorder or social issue that would compromise patient safety or compliance, interfere with consent, study participation, follow up, or interpretation of study results.
