Study Summary

This trial is studying a combination of romidepsin, fludarabine, and busulfan to see if it can help control leukemia or lymphoma. Researchers also want to learn the highest tolerable dose of romidepsin that can be given with this combination.

Eligible Conditions
  • Prolymphocytic Leukemia
  • Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma
  • Acute Myeloid Leukemia
  • Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
  • T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Romidepsin + Busulfan + Fludarabine + Stem Cell TransplantExperimental Treatment5 Interventions
Part 1: Busulfan administered at the dose calculated to achieve a total (including first two doses delivered on Day -13 and -12) systemic exposure of 20,000 ± 12% µMol-min based on the pharmacokinetic studies. Fludarabine 40 mg/m2 by vein on Days -6 to -3. Romidepsin dosed per actual body weight/actual body surface area. Romidepsin administered on Day -6, -5, -4, and -3 at escalating doses of 1 mg/m2, 2 mg/m2, and 3 mg/m2 by vein to determine the optimal dose. Participants receiving a graft from a matched unrelated donor receive rabbit Thymoglobulin; 0.5 mg/kg on Day -3, 1.5 mg/kg on Day -2 and 2.0 mg/kg on Day -1. Stem cell infusion on Day 0. Romidepsin Maintenance Therapy - Part 2: Starting between Day +28 and Day +100, if participant is eligible based on disease status, they will continue to receive Romidepsin 8 mg/m2 by vein over 1 hour on Day 1 of each 2-week cycle.

Answered by AI

How many individuals are involved in the current experiment?

"Affirmative, according to the data on clinicaltrials.gov this study is presently recruiting participants. It was initially released on December 8th 2017 and last updated April 18th 2022. This trial requires 10 patients across a single site."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA issued a statement of approval for Stem Cell Transplantation?

"The safety of stem cell transplant is currently rated low, at 1 on the scale due to a lack of clinical data that support its efficacy."

Answered by AI

Am I eligible to participate in this experimental research?

"This clinical trial is looking for 10 individuals aged between 18 and 70 whose diagnosis includes Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma, T-Prolymphocytic Leukemia, T-Large Granulocytic Leukemia, T-Lymphoblastic Leukemia/lymphoma or Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma. Furthermore, applicants must meet the following prerequisites: HLA matched sibling or unrelated donor with a minimum score of 8/8 to 10/10; EF>/= 50% on MUGA scan or Echocardiogram; FEV1, FVC and corrected DLCO >/"

Answered by AI
