Arsenic Trioxide to Prevent Relapse in Patients Undergoing Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation for Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (NCT07737769)

A Phase I Non-Randomized Study of TP53 Reactivation With Arsenic Trioxide in Allogeneic Transplantation for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome

🟡 Not Yet Recruiting Phase1 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose and how well arsenic trioxide works to prevent relapse in patients undergoing allogenic stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Chemotherapy drugs, such as arsenic trioxide, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving arsenic trioxide may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in preventing relapse in patients undergoing allogenic stem cell transplant for AML or MDS.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (21 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (12 items).

Location: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center — Ann Arbor, Michigan

Age range: 21 Years

Instant Checklist

Check every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:

  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • Uncontrolled infections. Patients still under therapy for presumed or proven infection are eligible provided there is clear evidence (radiologic, clinical and/or culture) that the infection is well controlled
  • Patients may NOT have evidence or symptoms of central nervous system (CNS) disease at the time of enrollment
  • HIV or human t-lymphotropic virus (HTLV) 1 / HTLV 2 (seropositivity and/or polymerase chain reaction \[PCR\] positivity)
  • Pregnant and nursing mothers are excluded
  • Any physical, psychological or psychosocial condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would pose unacceptable risk to the patient
  • Other malignancy requiring systemic therapy or with life expectancy of \< 1 year
  • Receipt of prior allogeneic HCT
  • History of severe cardiac conduction abnormalities (complete heart block, Left Bundle Branch Block, Torsades de Pointes, or other ventricular arrythmias). History of any cardiac arrhythmia (e.g. rate controlled atrial fibrillation) is not an exclusion
  • QTc \> 450 msec (using the Framingham correction)
  • Patients under 40 years of age at time of evaluation will be screened for Shwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS), which is a rare, inherited disorder characterized primarily by exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, bone marrow failure, and skeletal abnormalities. These patients commonly progress to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Given potential for increased liver toxicities in this population, these patients will be excluded from the study. All patients under 40 years old will be screened through the University of Michigan Prevention Genetics Clinic prior to enrollment
  • Patients with known hypersensitivity to arsenic
