ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00003166
  Purpose

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bryostatin-1 when given together with vincristine in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, or multiple myeloma.


Condition Intervention Phase
Leukemia
Lymphoma
Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasm
Drug: bryostatin 1
Drug: vincristine sulfate
Phase I

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A Phase I Trial of Combination Bryostatin 1 (NSC 339555) and Vincristine in B-Cell Malignancies

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Determine the maximum tolerated dose of bryostatin 1 when combined with vincristine. [ Time Frame: every 2 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients completing 6 courses of therapy may receive subsequent courses every 3 weeks and then every 4 weeks after 24 months of treatment. ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Enrollment: 25
Study Start Date: May 1998
Primary Completion Date: July 2001 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Intervention Details:
    Drug: bryostatin 1
    Dose-escalation study of bryostatin 1. Patients receive bryostatin 1 IV over 24 hours
    Drug: vincristine sulfate
    Followed by a bolus IV injection of vincristine.
Detailed Description:

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of bryostatin 1 when combined with vincristine in patients with B-cell malignancies. II. Assess clinical responses in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of bryostatin 1. Patients receive bryostatin 1 IV over 24 hours followed immediately by vincristine IV. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients completing 6 courses of therapy may receive subsequent courses every 3 weeks and then every 4 weeks after 24 months of treatment. Patients may return to a 2- or 3-week treatment course at the discretion of the principal investigator. Cohorts of 3 patients receive escalating doses of bryostatin 1 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which at least 1 of 3 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. Patients are followed every 3 months.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 18 patients will be accrued for this study within 12-15 months.
