Summary

Objectives: Primary Objectives: 1. To determine the safety and feasibility of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) as initial salvage treatment for patients with primary induction failure (PIF) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). 2. To determine efficacy of AHSCT following decitabine, clofarabine, idarubicin, and cytarabine (DCIA) salvage chemotherapy evaluated by overall response rate (RR), defined as complete response (CR) or CR without platelet recovery (CRp) or CR with insufficient hematological recovery (CRi). Secondary Objectives: 1. To determine the percentage of patients with PIF AML eligible for AHSCT after up to 2 courses of induction chemotherapy. 2. To determine the early treatment-related mortality (TRM) (within first 4 weeks of first salvage chemotherapy regimen with DCIA and day 100 TRM after AHSCT. 3. To determine the efficacy DCIA regimen as salvage chemotherapy for patients with PIF AML (% of patients who achieve </=5% bone marrow blasts prior to AHSCT. 4. To determine the TRM at 1 year, relapse rate (RR), overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) for patients with PIF AML treated with DCIA followed by early AHSCT.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients age 18-60 years.
  • Patients with diagnosis of AML, judged primary refractory after up to 2 courses of AML induction therapy (> 5% blasts on day 21 (+/-7 days) bone marrow aspirate and/or biopsy from the beginning of induction chemotherapy, up to 42 days).
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status /= 40% (by either ECHO or MUGA).
  • Willingness to have an allogeneic transplant.
  • Patient or patient's legal representative able to provide written informed consent.
  • Patients are required to meet the following criteria to proceed to AHSCT:
  • Donor criteria: Availability of a donor either an HLA matched sibling donor (MSD) or a haploidentical (5-9/10 HLA matched); alternatively a 8/8 HLA matched unrelated donor (MUD) by high resolution typing is immediately available;
  • Disease criteria: Day 21 (+/-7 days) bone marrow aspiration or biopsy from the beginning of salvage DCIA: a. In complete morphologic remission with 1,000/µL) and /= 50 ml/min (calculated by Cockcroft-Gault formula); b. Total bilirubin /= 40% on ECHO or MUGA; e. DLCO >/= 50% predicted after correction for hemoglobin (must be performed in patients with history of smoking or lung disease;); DLCO may be omitted in patients without history of pulmonary disease if approved by the Study Chair.
  • No active infection: Patients should be afebrile. If present, pulmonary infiltrates or other sites of infection must be improving on antibiotics. Patients should not require oxygen. Study Chair will be the arbiter of this criterion.

Exclusion Criteria

  • HIV positive; active hepatitis B or C.
  • Uncontrolled active infections (viral, bacterial, and fungal); the Study Chair will be the final arbiter of this criterion.
  • Patients with active secondary malignancy unless approved by the Study Chair.
  • Liver cirrhosis.
  • Active CNS involvement within the previous 2 months.
  • Prior induction therapy with DAC + CIA.
  • Positive pregnancy test in a woman with child bearing potential defined as not post-menopausal for 12 months or no previous surgical sterilization.
  • Breast feeding women.
  • Men must agree not to father a child and agree to use a condom if his partner is of child bearing potential.
  • Inability to comply with medical therapy or follow-up.
