简要总结
Tipifarnib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for their growth. Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of tipifarnib in treating patients who have acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome in first complete remission
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the duration of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) when ZARNESTRA is administered after intensive induction and consolidation chemotherapy to adults with poor risk acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplasia (MDS) in first complete remission (CR).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the tolerability and toxicities of ZARNESTRA when administered in a chronic dosing schedule over a 48 week period to adults in first CR following intensive cytotoxic chemotherapies.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Treatment (tipifarnib)
Patients receive oral tipifarnib twice daily on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 16 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
干预措施: tipifarnib (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Disease-free survival
时间窗: 6 months
The trial is a success if greater than 45% of patients survive to 6 months. Comparing this to the null hypothesis of 25% survival, we have 84% power to detect this difference using an exact 2-sided binominal test of proportions for alpha of 0.10. This assumes no censoring occurs before 6 months.
次要结局
- Tolerability and toxicities of ZARNESTRA when administrated in a chronic dosing schedule over a 48-week period to adults in first CR following intensive cytotoxic chemotherapy(Up to 48 weeks)
