Brief Summary:
This phase II trial studies how well clofarabine, idarubicin, cytarabine, vincristine sulfate, and dexamethasone work in treating patients with mixed phenotype acute leukemia that is newly diagnosed or has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine, idarubicin, cytarabine, vincristine sulfate, and dexamethasone, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To evaluate the response rate of the chemotherapy regimen in patients with mixed phenotype acute leukemia.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To evaluate the durability of response, the overall and event-free survival rates, and the safety profile of the regimen.

OUTLINE:

INDUCTION THERAPY: Patients receive clofarabine intravenously (IV) over 60 minutes on days 1-4 or 1-3; idarubicin IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1-3 or 1-2; cytarabine IV over 2 hours on days 1-4; vincristine sulfate IV over 15-30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15; and dexamethasone IV over 10-30 minutes on days 1-4 and 15-18. Patients with a certain type of leukemia may receive rituximab IV over 4-6 hours on days 1 and 8 or sorafenib tosylate orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 2 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

CONSOLIDATION THERAPY: Patients receive clofarabine IV over 60 minutes on days 1-3 or 1-2; idarubicin IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1-2; cytarabine IV over 2 hours on days 1-3 or 1-2; vincristine sulfate IV over 15-30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15; and dexamethasone IV over 10-30 minutes on days 1-4 and 15-18. Patients with a certain type of leukemia may receive rituximab IV over 4-6 hours on days 1 and 8 of cycles 1-3 or sorafenib tosylate PO BID on days 1-28 of cycle 1-6 and beyond. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 6 months thereafter.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Response (complete response or overall response rate) [ Time Frame: Up to 2 months ]
    The two groups of patients (newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory) will be evaluated separately. The posterior response rate and their 95% credible intervals will be estimated.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. 4-week mortality rate (Newly diagnosed patients) [ Time Frame: At 4 weeks ]
    For discrete or categorical data, descriptive statistics will include tabulations of frequencies. For continuous data, summary statistics including n, mean, standard deviation, median, minimum and maximum will be computed.

  2. Incidence of toxicity (Newly diagnosed patients) [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks after completion of study treatment ]
    Will be defined as any grade 3 or greater clinically significant non-hematological toxicity related to treatment. Graded according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.0. For discrete or categorical data, descriptive statistics will include tabulations of frequencies.

  3. 4-week mortality rate (Relapsed patients) [ Time Frame: At 4 weeks ]
  4. Incidence of toxicity (Relapsed patients) [ Time Frame: Up to 4 weeks after completion of study treatment ]
    Will be defined as any grade 3 or greater clinically significant non hematological toxicity related to treatment. Graded according to NCI CTCAE version 4.0.
