Ixazomib, Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride, Etoposide, and Intermediate-Dose Cytarabine in Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2017-08-15

Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of ixazomib when given in combination with mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and intermediate-dose cytarabine in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia that is unresponsive to initial induction chemotherapy or recurs following an initial complete remission. Acute myeloid leukemia is a cancer of the bone marrow cells; bone marrow is where blood cells are normally made. Ixazomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and intermediate-dose cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and intermediate-dose cytarabine are standard treatment for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Giving ixazomib with mitoxantrone hydrochloride, etoposide, and intermediate-dose cytarabine may improve the effectiveness of the chemotherapy.
