Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This study involves evaluating a combination of chemotherapy drugs known as "CLAG-GO" \[cladribine, cytarabine, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) and gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO)\] in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that has not responded well to standard therapy or has returned after an initial remission (relapsed). The trial will be conducted at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center (UMGCCC). Potential participants will go through a screening period to see if they are eligible to join the study. If eligible, participants will be hospitalized for 4-5 weeks to receive study treatment with CLAG-GO, called induction chemotherapy. If tests show that the cancer is in remission after induction chemotherapy, participants may undergo further chemotherapy (known as consolidation) or may proceed with bone marrow/stem cell transplantation. Patients who receive consolidation chemotherapy and remain in remission may have up to 8 cycles of outpatient maintenance therapy. A cycle lasts about 28 days. All participants will be monitored carefully for both side effects and to see if the study treatment is working. Lab tests and exams will be conducted throughout the entire study. In addition, special studies will be done at various time points to try to understand better how the drugs work and which patients are likely to respond best.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years

Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No

Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT

Inclusion Criteria	Exclusion Criteria
1. Adult patients age 18 years or older, with a pathologically confirmed diagnosis of AML \[excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL)\] according to WHO criteria. AML may be de novo, or following a prior hematologic disease and/or therapy-related. 2. Patients must have relapsed after or be refractory to at least one course of an intensive chemotherapy regimen, for example anthracycline/cytarabine ("7+3" or daunorubicin and cytarabine liposome). Patients with residual disease on day 13-22 of initial induction chemotherapy are eligible, provided the bone marrow cellularity is ≥ 30% AND bone marrow blasts are ≥ 20%. Hypomethylating agents such as azacitidine or decitabine are allowed as a prior therapy, but are not considered an intensive chemotherapy regimen. 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2. 4. Any systemic chemotherapy and any radiotherapy must be completed at least 7 days prior to initiation of protocol therapy, with the exception of hydroxyurea or 6-mercaptopurine for cytoreduction. 5. At least 20% expression of CD33 as determined by flow cytometry or immunohistochemical staining. 6. Adequate renal function, defined as a serum creatinine less than 1.8 mg/dL. 7. Adequate hepatic function, defined as a direct bilirubin less than 2 times the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) and AST, ALT and Alkaline Phosphatase less than 3 times the ULN. 8. Patients who relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are eligible, provided they are at least 60 days from stem cell infusion, do not have \> grade 1 graft versus host disease, and have been off all immunosuppressive therapy for at least 2 weeks. 9. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test and agree to use an adequate method of contraception as defined by the protocol. This must persist through the treatment period until at least 6 months after the last dose of chemotherapy or GO. 10. Male subjects who are able to father children and are having intercourse with females of childbearing potential must also agree to an acceptable method of contraception through the treatment period until at least 3 months after the last dose of chemotherapy or GO, and must refrain from sperm donation during this period. 11. Ability to give written informed consent.	1. Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (FAB-M3) or chronic myelogenous leukemia in blast phase. 2. Isolated myeloid sarcoma. Patients must have marrow involvement with AML to enter the study. 3. Patients with known active AML involvement of the central nervous system. 4. Prior treatment with gemtuzumab ozogamicin or cladribine for AML. Prior treatment with cytarabine is permitted. 5. As patients will be receiving G-CSF prior to chemotherapy, patients presenting with symptomatic leukostasis (as judged by the investigator) are excluded. Hydroxyurea, 6-mercaptopurine and/or leukapheresis for blast count control (see inclusion criterion #4) for patients with asymptomatic hyperleukocytosis is permitted before starting treatment, but must be stopped for at least 24 hours prior to starting protocol treatment. 6. Active uncontrolled infection. Patients on prophylactic antibacterial, antifungal, and/or antiviral agents and patients whose infections are controlled with these agents are eligible. 7. Known active hepatitis B or C or other known active hepatic disorder. 8. Any history of veno-occlusive disease (VOD)/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS). 9. Active concurrent malignancy, unless disease-free for at least 3 years. Subjects with treated non-melanoma skin cancer, in situ carcinoma or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, regardless of the disease-free duration, are eligible for this study if definitive treatment for the condition has been completed. Patients with organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of recurrent or progressive disease are eligible if hormonal therapy has been initiated or the malignancy has been treated surgically or with definitive radiotherapy. 10. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that per investigator's judgment would limit compliance with study requirements.
