Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well giving MS-275 together with GM-CSF works in treating patients with myelodysplastic syndrome and/or relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. MS-275 may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Colony-stimulating factors, such as GM-CSF, may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood. Giving MS-275 together with GM-CSF may be an effective treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia

Eligibility Criteria

  • Diagnosis of 1 of the following diseases by bone marrow aspiration and/or biopsy:
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) meeting the following criteria:
  • Must have 1 of the following subtypes:
  • Refractory anemia (RA) (no RA with 5q-syndrome),
  • RA with ringed sideroblasts or
  • Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) meeting the following criteria:

Must have 1 of the following subtypes:

  • Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia and ringed sideroblasts,
  • RA with excess blasts (RAEB)-1, RAEB-2,
  • Myelodysplastic syndromes, unclassified or
  • Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia
  • International Prognostic Scoring System score of intermediate-2 or high-risk
  • Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Relapsed or refractory AML, including any of the following subtypes:
  • * AML with recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities (i.e., AML with 11q23 [MLL] abnormalities)
  • AML with multilineage dysplasia
  • AML that is therapy-related
  • AML, not otherwise categorized (M0 [minimally differentiated], M1 [without maturation], M2 [with maturation], M4 [myelomonocytic leukemia], M5 [monoblastic/monocytic leukemia], M6 [erythroid leukemia], and M7 [megakaryoblastic leukemia])
  • Untreated AML
  • Newly diagnosed patients are eligible provided they do not qualify for potentially curative intensive chemotherapeutic regimens
  • Acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) meeting 1 of the following criteria:
  • Relapsed or refractory ALL
  • Patients with any measurable residual disease are eligible, including cytogenetic abnormalities
  • Untreated ALL
  • Newly diagnosed patients are eligible provided they do not qualify for potentially curative intensive chemotherapeutic regimens, including any of the following:
  • Patients who have refused chemotherapy for untreated ALL
  • Patients who are deemed to be poor candidates medically for ALL induction chemotherapy
  • Relatively stable bone marrow function for > 7 days prior to study entry
  • WBC count that has not doubled within the past 7 days
  • WBC = 30,000/mm³)
  • No active CNS disease
  • Lumbar puncture with negative cytology required for patients with clinical symptoms of active CNS disease
  • Not a candidate for a potentially curative allogeneic stem cell transplantation OR considered a poor candidate for such a procedure due to age, medical comorbidities, or lack of a suitable donor
