About this trial

This is an interventional supportive care trial for Adult Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (M7)

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers
Inclusion Criteria: Pathologic diagnosis of newly diagnosed AML (excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia [APL]) Patients undergoing intensive induction therapy (equivalent of 7+3, cytarabine, daunorubicin, etoposide [ADE] or high-dose cytarabine containing regimens) Subnormal 25(OH)-D3 levels (< 32 ng/mL) Serum calcium =< upper limit of normal Demonstrate the ability to swallow and retain oral medication Patients of child-bearing potential must agree to use acceptable contraceptive methods (e.g., double barrier) during treatment Patient or legal representative must understand the investigational nature of this study and sign an Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board approved written informed consent form prior to receiving any study related procedure Exclusion Criteria: Patients should not have a history of nephrocalcinosis Patients should not have received bisphosphonate treatment within 28 days before study entry Pregnant or nursing female patients Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements Any condition which in the Investigator's opinion deems the patient an unsuitable candidate to receive study drug Received an investigational agent within 30 days prior to enrollment Patients who cannot be discontinued from cimetidine, thiazide diuretics and/or heparin Patients who are on magnesium based antacids who cannot be offered an alternative regimen

Experimental

Arm Label

Arm I (25(OH)-D3 levels 20-31.9 ng/mL [insufficient levels])

Arm II (25(OH)-D3 levels 20-31.9 ng/mL [insufficient levels])

Arm Description

Patients receive a loading dose of cholecalciferol PO on day 1. Patients then receive lower-dose cholecalciferol PO beginning on day 8.

Patients receive a loading dose of cholecalciferol PO on day 1. Patients then receive higher-dose cholecalciferol PO beginning on day 8.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Changes in 25(OH)-D3 levels after supplementation
The within-group pre- and post-supplementation levels will be summarized separately and the within-subject change will also be computed. To assess within-arm treatment effects the sign test will be used.
Pharmacokinetic parameters
Summarized using the mean (with corresponding 90% confidence intervals) and standard deviation.
Safety and toxicity parameters
Rates corresponding to toxicity endpoints will be estimated using simple relative frequencies. The corresponding 90% confidence intervals for the estimated probabilities will be computed using the method proposed in Clopper and Pearson. Comparison between groups will be done in an exploratory fashion using appropriate two-sample tests. A nominal significance level of 0.10 will be used in all testing.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This partially randomized phase II trial studies the side effects and best way to give and best dose of cholecalciferol in treating patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing intensive induction chemotherapy. Cholecalciferol may help improve the outcome of patients with AML undergoing intensive chemotherapy
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess patients with regards to changes in 25(OH)-D3 changes after supplementation. II. To develop a pharmacokinetic model to describe the time course of the relationship of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplementation that drives the levels of 25(OH)-D3 during the intensive induction chemotherapy. III. To determine the safety and toxicity of vitamin D3 supplementation in AML patients undergoing intensive induction chemotherapy. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To explore whether rapid (loading dose of vitamin D3) normalization of 25(OH)-D3 levels will have an effect on the progression free and overall survival. II. To explore whether a relationship exists between the pharmacokinetics of the 25-hydroxy-vitamin D3 and white blood cell count. OUTLINE: Patients with pretreatment 25(OH)-D3 levels 20-31.9 ng/mL (insufficient levels) are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM I: Patients receive a loading dose of cholecalciferol orally (PO) on day 1. Patients then receive lower-dose cholecalciferol PO beginning on day 8. ARM II: Patients receive a loading dose of cholecalciferol PO on day 1. Patients then receive higher-dose cholecalciferol PO beginning on day 8. Patients with pretreatment 25(OH)-D3 levels < 20 ng/mL (deficient levels) receive a loading dose of cholecalciferol PO on days 1 and 8. Patients then receive lower-dose cholecalciferol PO beginning on day 15. For all patients, treatment continues in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.
