E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective is to estimate the MCyR rate to dasatinib therapy in children and adolescents with CP-CML, and the CHR rate in children and adolescents with Ph+ ALL, AP- and BP-CML, who are resistant, intolerant to, or relapse after prior imatinib therapy. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
• To assess the safety and tolerability of dasatinib in children and adolescents treated with dasatinib for relapsed or refractory Ph+ leukemias • To evaluate additional measures of efficacy in children and adolescents with relapsed or refractory Ph+ leukemias treated on a given regimen of dasatinib including: – best cytogenetic and hematological response rates – time to response and duration of response – progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) – rates of complete (CMR) and major (MMR) molecular response • To describe the spectrum of the BCR-ABL mutations at baseline, at progression or end of treatment, and to explore the role of mutations as predictors of response. |

|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1) Sex and Reproductive Status a) WOCBP who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study period and for up to 4 weeks after the last dose of investigational product. b) Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding c) Women with a positive pregnancy test on enrollment or prior to investigational product administration. d) Sexually active fertile men not using effective birth control if their partners are WOCBP who are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study period and for up to 4 weeks after the last dose of investigational product. 2) Target Disease Exceptions a) Subjects for whom potentially-curative therapy is available, including hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) b) Symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) involvement (except if signs and symptoms are from isolated leptomeningeal disease) c) Isolated extramedullary disease, with < 5% blasts in bone marrow 3) Medical History and Concurrent Diseases a) Any serious uncontrolled medical disorder that would impair the ability of the subject to receive protocol therapy, including: i) Ongoing uncontrolled infection ii) Clinically-significant disorder of platelet function (e.g. von Willebrand’s disease) or ongoing gastrointestinal bleeding iii) Clinically-significant cardiovascular disease, congenital long QT syndrome, history of ventricular arrhythmias or heart block, or prolonged QTc interval > 450 ms (Fridericia correction) on baseline electrocardiogram b) Expected non-compliance to protocol schedule or unable to have regular followup due to psychological, social, familial or geographic reasons 4) Prohibited Treatments and/or Therapies a) Prior therapy with dasatinib. b) Any investigational agent or any other anti-cancer agent within 14 days prior to treatment start. Imatinib mesylate may be continued up to 7 days before treatment start, or, in the presence of rising peripheral blast cells, imatinib may be continued up to 2 days before treatment start. If required for control of peripheral blast cells, hydroxyurea, corticosteroids, 6-mercaptopurine or 6-thioguanine may be given up to 2 days before treatment start. c) Subjects requiring ongoing medications which may: i) Have a known risk of causing QTc prolongation - see Section 5.5.3.2 ii) Irreversibly inhibit platelet function, or anticoagulants - see Section 5.5.3.3 (Does not apply to low-dose heparin for prophylaxis or to heparin flushes for i.v. lines) 5) Other Exclusion Criteria a) Prisoners or subjects who are involuntarily incarcerated b) Subjects who are compulsorily detained for treatment of either a psychiatric or physical (eg, infectious disease) illness. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Primary endpoint is MCyR for Cohort #1 and CHR for Cohort #2. Cytogenetic response will be based on the percentage of Ph+ metaphases among ≥ 20 analyzed metaphases in bone marrow aspirate. CHR will be assessed regularly through serum hematology tests. Molecular responses will also be assessed. Mutation analyses will be reported descriptively. To assess safety, adverse events will be reported continuously and graded according to NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0. Safety will be summarized by cohort, by reporting AEs, laboratory abnormalities, dose interruptions and reductions, treatment discontinuation for toxicity, and use of concomitant medications. |
