Arm Description

PXD101 administered as a 30-minute intravenous (IV) infusion of 1000 mg/m²/d for five consecutive days every 3 weeks. Idarubicin administered on day 5 (first steps) or days 4 and 5 (later steps). Patients will be treated in a 21-day cycle for a minimum of 2 cycles and a maximum of 6 cycles (depending on cumulated idarubicin dose).

PXD101 administered by continuous intravenous infusion over 24-48 hours and idarubicin (in the later steps) added after the first 24 hours. The second cycle will start on day 15 but under observation of possible toxicity. Further cycles will be administered q 14 d for up to 6 cycles. The first dose steps will be carried out with PXD101 alone for safety reasons.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Maximum Tolerated Dose, Dose Limiting Toxicity
DLT (dose limiting toxicities): patients with any of the toxicities: 1.Haematological toxicity is not included in the definition due to bone marrow involvement by the disease except for following grade 4 ANC (absolute neutrophil count) and PLT (platelet count) for 6 weeks with less than 5% blasts in bone marrow. 2.Drug related non hematological Grade 3 or 4 toxicity except alopecia, brief nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, rash, arthralgias and myalgias. Treatment interventions should palliate toxicity symptoms prior to concluding a DLT has occurred (e.g if nausea and vomiting to Grade 3 have been associated with the drug). If despite standard treatment Grade 3 nausea and or vomiting persisted then a DLT was considered to have occurred. Grade 4 diarrhea in spite of standard therapeutic measures was included in DLT definition. 3.Inability to tolerate full dosing cycle due to toxicity or any drug-related adverse event resulting in more than 14 day treatment delay in the next treatment cycle
Overall Response
Efficacy measured as Response rate (complete response ([CR] and Complete remission with incomplete recovery of platelets [CRi]) and partial response ([PR])) using the response criteria of the International Working Group (Cheson et al 2003). CR includes CRi, CRc (Cytogenetic complete remission), and CRm (Molecular complete remission).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Time to Response (CR and PR)
Time to response: time in weeks from first treatment to obtainment of the particular response status (CR and PR)
Duration of Response (CR and PR)
Duration of Response (CR and PR) in Weeks
Overall Survival
Overall survival: time in weeks from entry into study until death from any cause. All patients without this endpoint at the time of discontinuation or the end of trial have been censored.
Relapse-Free Survival
Relapse-free survival: time (weeks) from leukemia-free state to relapse or death from any cause.
Event-Free Survival
Event-free survival: time (weeks) from entry into study until treatment failure, disease relapse or death from any cause.
Remission Duration
Remission duration: time (weeks) from date of remission status to disease relapse.
Belinostat Cmax
Cmax: Arm A: at Cycle 1 Day 4, Cycle 1 Day 5 Arm B: Cycle 1 Day 1 and Cycle 1 Day 2
Belinostat AUC (Area Under Curve)

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
An open-label, non-randomized, multi-centre, Phase I/II trial to assess the efficacy and safety of 2 schedules of PXD101 in combination with idarubicin in patients with AML not suitable for standard intensive therapy.
Detailed Description
This trial is an open-label, multi-centre, dose-escalation Phase I/II study to evaluate safety, explore efficacy, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics of the combination of PXD101 with idarubicin administered in two different schedules in patients with AML. The PXD101 plus idarubicin treatment will be repeated at suitable intervals (target is every 3 weeks for schedule A and every 2 weeks for schedule B) depending upon toxicities or disease progression. Safety and efficacy assessments will be performed at every cycle. Schedule A uses PXD101 by 30 min infusion daily for 5 days every 3 weeks with escalating doses of idarubicin. Schedule B uses escalating doses of continuous infusion (48h) of PXD101 alone or in combination with idarubicin. In both regimens the trial may be expanded at the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD).
