NCT06602323

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drugs (fludarabine and melphalan) combinated with a targeted irradiation (in bone marrow and in lymphoid tissue) works to treat blood cancers (high risk myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia) in adults. It will also learn about the safety of this combination of drugs and irradiation. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does this combined therapy result in an improved survival and decreased relapse/progression rate after a bone marrow transplant?
  • What toxicities or complications do participants have when taking this combined therapy? Researchers will use this combined therapy to see if it works to treat high risk myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia through the evaluation of the length of time (during the treatment and 2 years after the treatment) that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse (progression-free survival). Participants will:
  • Receive the combined therapy (study treatment) one week before the bone marrow transplant.
  • Receive too post-transplant medication as per usual clinical practice. Patients will have to attend medical visits (checkups and tests) for 2 years.

Study Arms (1)

TMLI/Flu/Mel conditioning regimen (Single-arm)

OTHER

Single-arm. TMLI: Dose level 1: 1200 cGy = 150 cGy x 8 doses (liver, brain, and hepatic portal limited to 720 cGy) Dose level -1: 1100 cGy = 137.5 cGy x 8 doses (liver, brain, and hepatic portal limited to 720 cGy) Dose level -2: 1000 cGy = 125 cGy x 8 doses (liver, brain, and hepatic portal limited to 720 cGy) Dose levels above 1,200 cGy will not be considered in this protocol, as the dose to off-target avoidance organs would exceed the recommended levels in reduced-intensity transplants. TMLI will be administered by helical tomotherapy for 4 consecutive days (day -7 to day -4), delivering 2 fractions per day (a total of 8 doses) with a minimum of 6 hours between fractions. FLURADABINE: Dose: 25 mg/m2 Route of administration: intravenous. Treatment duration: for 4 consecutive days (day -7 to day -4 pre-transplant). MELPHALAN: Dose: 140 mg/m2 Route of administration: intravenous Treatment duration: for 1 day (day -2 pre-transplant).

Combination Product: TMLI/Flu/Mel

Interventions

TMLI/Flu/MelCOMBINATION_PRODUCT

Targeted total bone marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) conformal therapy administered in combination with a reduced-intensity regimen based on Fludarabine and Melphalan.

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years - 99 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • The participant has the ability and willingness to sign the informed consent document. (For adults, only participants with mild cognitive abilities may use a legally authorized representative).
  • Documented (signed) informed consent. The patient, family member, and doctor of the transplant staff (doctor, nurse, and social worker) meet at least once before the transplant procedure begins. During this meeting, all relevant information regarding the risks and benefits to the donor and recipient will be presented. Alternative treatment modalities will be discussed. The risks are explained in detail in the attached consent forms.
  • Age: ≥ 50 years or Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Comorbidity Index pre-transplant score ≥ 3 or any other condition that precludes the use of a fully myeloablative conditioning regimen.
  • Karnofsky's performance status ≥ 70%.
  • Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia or acute myeloid leukemia with relapsed/refractory active disease (i.e. ≥5% bone marrow blasts), or in complete remission or morphologic leukemia-free state with evidence of measurable residual disease as assessed by multiparameter flow cytometry (≥ 0,1%) or next-generation sequencing (in the case of fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 internal tandem duplication-mutated AML).
  • All candidates for this study must have an 8/8 human leukocyte antigens-identical (A, B, C, DR) sibling donor or an unrelated donor with at least 8/8 human leukocyte antigens matching. A single allele mismatch in A, B, C, DR or dq and a kir mismatch in C shall be allowed. All combinations of donor/recipient "abo" blood types are acceptable; as even major "abo" compatibilities can be treated using a variety of techniques (red blood cell exchange or plasma exchange).
  • The time elapsed since the end of the last induction or re-induction cycle must be greater than or equal to 14 days.
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 mg/dL x Upper Limit of Normality OR 3 x upper limit of normal for Gilbert's disease.
  • Serum glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase \& serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase ≤ 5 x Upper Limit of Normality.
  • Serum creatinine ≤ 1.3 mg/dL or creatinine clearance measured ≥ 80 mL/min for 24 hours of urine collection.
  • Women of childbearing age only: Negative urine or serum pregnancy test.
  • Men AND women of childbearing potential agree to use appropriate contraceptives (hormonal or barrier contraception or abstinence) prior to study entry and for six months following the duration of study participation. If a woman becomes pregnant or suspects she is pregnant while participating in the trial, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
  • Pulmonary function tests: forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and Carbon Monoxide Diffusion Capacity (DLCO) (adjusted for Hb) ≥ 50% from expected normal value.
  • Patients should undergo cardiac evaluation with an electrocardiogram showing no ischemic changes or clinically relevant arrhythmia, and a ≥50% ejection fraction established by multigated acquisition scan or echocardiogram.
  • ECG showing no ischemic changes or clinically significant arrhythmia.
  • +1 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who have received a previous autologous (within the last year) or allogeneic transplant (at any time) are excluded.
  • Previous radiation therapy which would preclude the use of TMLI.
  • Plans during the trial to receive any other investigational (non-trial-related) agents.
  • Uncontrolled disease, including ongoing or active infection.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of chemical or biological composition similar to cyclophosphamide or etoposide.
  • Patients with other active malignancies are not eligible for this study, other than the malignancies discussed.
  • Patients with a psychological or medical condition that the patient's physician deems unacceptable to proceed with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
  • Women who plan to become pregnant or breastfeed during the trial.
  • Patients who do not agree to practice effective forms of contraception.
  • Subjects who, in the opinion of the investigator, may not be able to meet the safety control requirements of the study.

Intervention Model
SEQUENTIAL
Model Details: A 3+3 de-escalation design comprising a patient safety-lead phase will be applied in successive patient cohorts: Initially, 3 patients will be treated at the starting TMLI dose (Dose Level 1, 1200 cGy). If 0 or 1 dose-limiting toxicity is observed among the first 6 patients at Dose Level 1, then 28 additional patients will be treated at this dose level (allowing for the evaluation of 34 patients treated at the target dose level). If ≥2/6 patients experience a dose-limiting toxicity at Dose Level 1, then the maximum tolerated dose has been exceeded and the next lower TMLI dose (Dose Level -1, 1100 cGy) will be expanded to up to 6 patients. If 0 or 1 patient out of 6 experiences a dose-limiting toxicity, this dose level will be further evaluated (n=28 additional patients). If ≥2/6 patients experience a dose-limiting toxicity, the next lower dose (Dose Level -2, 1000 cGy) level will be expanded applying the same criteria.
