Brief Summary

Patients with chemo refractory CLL have a poor prognosis. 2 independent mechanisms are attributed to the development of chemoresistance in CLL. The first is a shift in the balance between pro- and anti-apoptotic regulators. The second mechanism is based on acquired mutations resulting in a dysfunctional p53 response. Recent studies indicate that the tyrosine kinase inhibitor dasatinib acts synergistically with both purine analogies and alkylating agents. Also, dasatinib has the potency to restore the apoptotic balance of CLL cells. Hypothesis: Dasatinib will be clinically active in chemo-refractory CLL patients and will act synergistically with the purine-analogue fludarabine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • response rate and response quality

    At 32 weeks of either dasatinib monotherapy or after 6 cycles of fludarabine and dasatinib combination

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • overall safety profile of these treatment approaches, event free survival, progression free survival, relapse or death, disease free survival

    3 years

Study Arms (1)

Dasatinib

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be treated with dasatinib monotherapy 100mg daily. At four weeks patients will be re-evaluated. Patients with less than a partial response will receive fludarabine (orally 40mg/daily for 3 days q28) in addition to dasatinib.

Drug: Dasatinib

Interventions

Chemo-refractory CLL patients will be treated with dasatinib monotherapy 100mg daily.Patients with less than a partial response at 4 weeks will receive fludarabine (orally 40mg/daily for 3 days q28) in addition to dasatinib for a maximum of 6 cycles. Patients with at least a partial response will continue dasatinib monotherapy. Patients that receive monotherapy after the initial 28 days and that develop progressive disease will 'cross-over' to the combination treatment.

  • Grade 3 cytopenia not due to bone marrow infiltration
  • Concurrent medical condition which may increase the risk of toxicity, including:
  • Pleural or pericardial effusion of any grade
  • Cardiac Symptoms, including:
  • Uncontrolled angina, congestive heart failure or MI within (6 months)
  • Diagnosed congenital long QT syndrome
  • Any history of clinically significant ventricular arrhythmias (such as ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or Torsades de pointes)
  • prolonged QTc interval on pre-entry electrocardiogram (\> 450 msec)
  • Subjects with hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia if it cannot be corrected prior to dasatinib administration;
  • Severe pulmonary dysfunction (CTCAE grade III-IV);
  • Active hepatitis B infection;
  • History of significant bleeding disorder unrelated to the CLL, including:
  • Diagnosed congenital bleeding disorders (e.g., von Willebrand's disease)
  • +14 more criteria
