NCT01738360

Brief Summary

Primary objectives :

  • To investigate the safety and the tolerability of ATO by IV infusions to patients with SLE,
  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose of ATO. Secondary objectives :
  • Evaluation of the clinical and biological response of the SLE to ATO,
  • Time of relapse in case of positive response,
  • Determination of the efficacy,
  • Pharmacokinetic study of ATO.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cardiac adverse events whatever grade and any adverse event of grade 3 or 4

    The definition of toxicity will be based on "Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4" of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health / National Cancer Institute. The investigators will consider the occurrence of a significant toxicity if at least one of the following events is observed : * Any symptomatic toxicity (and / or abnormality) cardiac and / or QTc prolongation \> 480 msec., * Apart from cardiac toxicity, toxicity of any grade 3 or 4 and irreversible toxicity (within 30 days) of any grade 1 or 2.

    30 days after the last infusion

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Composite response of SLE

    30 months

  • Anti-nuclear antibodies (ANA).

    30 months

  • Anti-native DNA

  • C3 complement

Study Arms (1)

Arsenic trioxide

EXPERIMENTAL

Thirteen patients will be successively included in this study at 6 different dose levels of arsenic trioxide (0.075, 0.10, 015, 0.20, 0.25 and 0.30 mg / kg / day).

Drug: Arsenic trioxide

Interventions

The study duration was 30 months (24 months recruitment + 6 months follow-up).Thirteen patients will be successively included in this study at 6 different dose levels of arsenic trioxide (0.075, 0.10, 015, 0.20, 0.25 and 0.30 mg / kg / day). The treatment should be administered by IV infusion over 2 hours of D1 to D4 (conventional hospitalization) and at D8, D11, D15, D18, D22 and D25. The protocol starts at the dose of 0.10 mg / kg / day. The stage at the dose of 0.075mg/kg/day is planned in case of toxicity with the first stage at the dose of 0.10mg/kg/day. The course of study is as follows : * Pre-inclusion between D-35 and D-15 * Ten injections during the first month distributed as follows : conventional hospitalization from D1 to D4 (one injection per day) and daily hospitalization day for injections at D8, D11, D15, D18, D22 and D25. * A telephone contact between D32 and D34 * A consultation at D40 then monthly consultation at D60, D90, D120, D150 and D180
