Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer drug, CPX-351, to see what the best dose is. Patients will keep taking the drug for 6 cycles as long as it is working, and the dose will be lowered if there are side effects.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with newly diagnosed Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) who are in complete remission, have undergone certain treatments up to a year, and can't have an allogeneic bone marrow transplant. Participants must be able to start treatment within 3 months of their last remission, have good heart function and organ health, and agree to use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing CPX-351 for preventing AML relapse. It involves a dose de-escalation design where patients receive maintenance doses on specific days across six cycles. The safest maximum dose determined will be used in the phase II part of the study.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
CPX-351 may cause side effects such as fatigue, fever, nausea or vomiting, mouth sores, diarrhea or constipation; low blood counts leading to increased risk of infection or bleeding; shortness of breath; rash; liver problems.

Answered by AI

Can new patients sign up to participate in this research project?

"This clinical trial, which was first posted on October 1st 2022, is actively seeking participants according to clinicaltrials.gov."

Answered by AI

What illnesses or conditions does CPX-351 show promise in helping?

"CPX-351 is a common treatment for acute myelocytic leukemia. This medication can also be administered to patients with blast phase chronic myelocytic leukemia, lymphoma, and to prophylactically prevent meningeal leukemia."

Answered by AI

What are the objectives of this clinical trial?

"The primary outcome of this clinical trial is the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events over a 28-day period. Secondary outcomes include overall survival and relapse-free survival, both of which will be measured in phases 1 and 2 of the trial. Additionally, the study will also look at the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events in phase 1 to determine the safety and tolerability of CPX-351 in newly diagnosed AML patients."
