Conditions: Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia
Keywords: Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia CMML
Allocation: NA | Intervention model: SINGLE_GROUP
Enrollment: 11
Healthy volunteers: no

Brief summary:
The primary objective of this study is:

Response to treatment will be evaluated according to the revised International Working Group (IWG) categories natural history, hematologic improvement and cytogenetic response1;2. The primary objective is:

To determine the rate of complete hematologic response and hematologic improvement (according to IWG 2006 criteria) in CMML patients treated with 5-azacitidine.

Detailed description:
In this study, eligible patients with a confirmed diagnosis of CMML will be treated with 5-azacitidine to determine the rates of complete hematologic response, hematologic improvement, complete and partial cytogenetic response, and overall and progression free survival.

To develop biomarkers associated with response and gain insights into the mechanisms that determine response, gene expression profiling, genome-wide SNP array analysis, microRNA analysis, and DNA methylation analysis will be performed prior to therapy and at defined time points during the study. Phosphoproteomics profiling may be included in the analysis.

Arms:
arm 1: All participants enrolled.

Interventions: intervention 1: 5-Azacitidine
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Administered on Days 1-7 of each Cycle.

Subcutaneous administration:

To provide a homogeneous suspension, the contents of the syringe must be re-suspended by inverting the syringe 2-3 times and vigorously rolling the syringe between the palms for 30 seconds immediately prior to administration.

The 5-azacitidine suspension is administered subcutaneously.

Intravenous Administration:

5-Azacitidine solution is administered intravenously. Administer the total dose over a period of 10-40 minutes.
