- Registration Number
- NCT00199030
- Lead Sponsor
- Goethe University
- Brief Summary
This study tests the effectivity and tolerability of treatment with alemtuzumab (MabCampath) in patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) or T-lymphoblastic lymphoma. In Arm A, patients with refractory relapse receive a 2 week treatment with MabCampath followed by remission evaluation. In case of insufficient response, treatment with cladribine is added. In Arm B, patients with molecular relapse (minimal residual disease) receive a 4 week treatment with MabCampath followed by remission evaluation. In both arms, treatment is continued in case of response for up to two months.

Group Intervention Description Arm A Alemtuzumab (MabCampath) In Arm A, patients with refractory relapse receive a 2 week treatment with MabCampath followed by remission evaluation. In case of insufficient response, treatment with cladribine is added. Arm B Alemtuzumab (MabCampath) In Arm B, patients with molecular relapse (minimal residual disease) receive a 4 week treatment with MabCampath followed by remission evaluation. Arm A Cladribine In Arm A, patients with refractory relapse receive a 2 week treatment with MabCampath followed by remission evaluation. In case of insufficient response, treatment with cladribine is added.
- Primary Outcome Measures
