Official title

A Phase 1 Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety and Pharmacokinetics (PK) of Palifermin in Pediatric Subjects With Acute Leukemias Undergoing Myeloablative Therapy and Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT)

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

20010133 is an open-label, dose escalation study in pediatric patients with acute leukemias receiving myelotoxic therapy (high dose etoposide, cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation \[TBI\]) followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The study will evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of palifermin in pediatric patients. Three doses (40 μg/kg/day, 60 μg/kg/day, and 80 μg/kg/day) are to be evaluated in each age group (1 to 2, 3 to 11, and 12 to 16 years, respectively) using a conventional dose escalation design. Palifermin is administered for 3 consecutive days (Day -10 to Day -8, respectively) before the start of the conditioning regimen and for 3 consecutive days (Day 0 to Day +2) following HSCT. Patients will be enrolled simultaneously to each age group to identify a safe, well tolerated, efficacious dose in each age group. Patients will also be followed for secondary malignancies, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS)
