Official title

A Phase I Study of Subcutaneous Recombinant Human IL-15 (S.C. Rhil-15) and Alemtuzumab for Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Chronic and Acute Adult T-Cell Leukemia (ATL)

Brief summary

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

Background: Adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) is a rare blood cancer. Researchers want to see if a combination of two drugs - recombinant human interleukin 15 (rhIL-15) and alemtuzumab - is a better treatment for ATL. Objectives: To test if giving rhIL-15 combined with alemtuzumab improves the outcome of therapy for ATL. Also, to determine the safe dose of this combination and identify side effects and effects on the immune system. Eligibility: Adults 18 years and older with chronic or acute ATL who have not been helped by other treatments. Design: Participants will be screened with tests that are mostly part of their usual cancer care. They will sign a separate consent form for this. Weeks 1 and 2: Participants will have a total of 10 visits. They will: * Get rhIL-15 under the skin by needle. * Have a physical exam and vital signs measured. * Give blood samples. * Answer questions about their health and their medicines. Week 3: Participants will stay in the clinic. They will: * Get alemtuzumab infusions in a vein through a small catheter on days 1, 2, 3, and 5. * Take medicines to decrease side effects. * Have a computed tomography (CT) scan to evaluate the treatment. * Have a physical exam and vital signs measured. * Give blood samples. Answer questions about their health and medicines. Weeks 4, 5, and 6 will repeat week 3, without the CT scan. Some patients will just have outpatient visits these weeks. After treatment, participants will have follow-up visits every few months for up to 2 years. At these visits, participants will give blood samples and have CT scans.
