Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant With Clofarabine, Busulfan and Antithymocyte Globulin (ATG) for Adult Patients With High-risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia/Myelodysplastic Syndromes (AML/MDS) or Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
- Conditions
- ALLBALMDSAML
- Registration Number
- NCT00863148
- Lead Sponsor
- Nantes University Hospital
- Brief Summary
Clofarabine is known to have a stronger anti-tumor effect than Fludarabine and has shown its efficacy in treating aggressive acute leukemias. In addition, evidence is that it is well-tolerated with manageable side effects especially in elderly patients. Thus, replacing Fludarabine with Clofarabine in a reduced intensity transplant regimen may provide a regimen with increased anti-tumor activity without adding significant risks of toxicity.The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and the safety of clofarabine in combination with IV busulfan and ATG as the backbone of a reduced intensity conditioning regimen for allogeneic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of patients with high-risk MDS/AML or ALL not eligible to conventional or standard myeloablative allo-SCT.
