Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The Phase II follows on from a separate Phase I study that was designed to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of intravenous (i.v) romidespin when delivered in conjunction with oral lenalidomide. The Phase I study can be found here http://www.anzctr.org.au/trial_view.aspx?ID=343451
The Phase II is a randomised study (1:1:1) comparing 50mg oral lenalidomide daily days 1-28 with either 50mg oral lenalidomide daily days 8-28 in combination with 75mg/m^2 subcutaneous (s.c) Azacitidine on days 1-5 and days 8-9; or 50mg oral lenalidomide daily days 8-28 in combination with maximum tolerated dose (MTD) from Phase I i.v romidepsin. Cycles are continuous 6 week cycles.
Intervention code [1] 284448 0
Treatment: Drugs
Comparator / control treatment
The Phase II study will compare romidepsin and high dose lenalidomide with high dose lenalidomide alone (control) or high dose lenalidomide in combination with azacitidine
Control group
Active

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 286706 0
To investigate the efficacy of two novel treatments (high dose lenalidomide + azacitidine and high dose lenalidomide + romidepsin) compared with a control treatment (high dose lenalidomide alone) in patients with relapsed or refractory AML as measured by the complete remission (CR) rate following two cycles of therapy. Complete remission will be measured by clinical investigations conducted at usual physician appointments.
Timepoint [1] 286706 0
After all patients have completed two cycles of chemotherapy
Secondary outcome [1] 296489 0
To compare the two novel treatment arms with the control arm in terms of the overall response rate as defined by the achievement of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) at the end of cycle 2 using information obtained from clinical investigations
Timepoint [1] 296489 0
end of cycle 2 for all patients
Secondary outcome [2] 296569 0
To compare the two novel treatment arms with the control arm in terms of progression-free survival, event-free survival, disease-free survival and overall survival. The outcome will be assessed using results from medical examinations.
Timepoint [2] 296569 0
At the end of follow up
Secondary outcome [3] 296570 0
To investigate the safety and tolerability of the novel treatments of lenalidomide in combination with azacitidine or romidepsin. The outcome will be assessed using results from medical examinations.
Timepoint [3] 296570 0
28 days after the last patient has completed the last dose of study treatment
Secondary outcome [4] 296571 0
To investigate associations between cytogenetic/molecular AML characteristics and response to treatment. The outcome will be assessed using results from medical examinations and laboratory research.
Timepoint [4] 296571 0
At the end of follow up
Secondary outcome [5] 296572 0
To investigate and compare the two novel treatment arms with the control arm in terms of quality of life over the first two cycles of treatment using the specific QOL questionnaire Fact-Leu
Timepoint [5] 296572 0
After all patients complete 2 cycles of treatment
Secondary outcome [6] 296573 0
To identify molecular markers of AML which correlate with benefit from investigational therapy. The outcome will be assessed using results from medical examinations and laboratory research.
Timepoint [6] 296573 0
At the completion of follow up
