Venetoclax For The Treatment Of Patients With Relapsed Hairy Cell Leukemia
Posted Date: Oct 7, 2024
- Investigator: Zulfa Omer
- Type of Study: Drug
This phase II trial tests how well venetoclax works in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival.

For Patients With Hcv Infection Who Are Currently On Treatment, They Are Eligible If They Have An Undetectable Hcv Viral Load Patients With A Prior Or Concurrent Malignancy Whose Natural History Or Treatment Does Not Have The Potential To Interfere With The Safety Or Efficacy Assessment Of The Investigational Regimen Are Eligible For This Trial Patients With Known History Or Current Symptoms Of Cardiac Disease, Or History Of Treatment With Cardiotoxic Agents, Should Have A Clinical Risk Assessment Of Cardiac Function Using The New York Heart Association Functional Classification. To Be Eligible For This Trial, Patients Should Be Class 2B Or Better Patients Must Have Had No Hcl/Hclv Treatment For = 4 Weeks Prior To Enrollment, And Those With Treatment > 4 Weeks Prior To Enrollment Must Not Be Responding To Their Last Treatment With Decreasing Tumor Burden Or Improving Drug-Related Cytopenias Patients Must Have A Need For Treatment Due To Absolute Neutrophil Count (Anc) < 1/Nl, Hemoglobin (Hgb) < 10G/Dl, Platelets (Plt) < 100/Nl, Symptomatic Splenomegaly, Enlarging Hcl Mass > 2Cm In Short Axis, Enlarging Hcl Mass > 0.5 Cm In The Central Nervous System (Cns) In Short Axis, Or Leukemic Count > 5/Nl The Effects Of Venetoclax On The Developing Human Fetus Are Unknown. For This Reason, Women Of Child-Bearing Potential And Men Must Agree To Use Adequate Contraception (Hormonal Or Barrier Method Of Birth Control; Abstinence) During Treatment And For 30 Days After The Last Dose Of Venetoclax.
