Trial Identification

Brief Title: Fludarabine, Cyclophosphamide, and Rituximab in Treating Patients Who Have Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Official Title: A Phase II Study of Fludarabine Induction With Sequential High Dose Cyclophosphamide and Rituximab as Consolidation Therapy for Previously Untreated Patients With Intermediate and High-Risk Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

Study ID: NCT00003659

Conditions

Leukemia

Study Description

Brief Summary: 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. Monoclonal antibodies can locate cancer cells and either kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of fludarabine plus high-dose cyclophosphamide and rituximab in treating patients who have previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES: * Determine the response rate in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with sequential fludarabine, high dose cyclophosphamide, and rituximab. * Survival up to 5 years * Utilize flow cytometry and polymerase chain reaction as sensitive measures of minimal residual disease in these patients. OUTLINE: This is an open label study. Patients receive fludarabine IV once daily for 5 days. Treatment is repeated every 4 weeks for 3 or 6 courses. Three weeks later, cyclophosphamide is administered intravenously every 2-3 weeks for 3 courses. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is administered on days 2-10. Beginning 4 weeks after the last dose of cyclophosphamide, patients receive rituximab by intravenous infusion once weekly for 4 weeks. Patient are followed every 3 months until death. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: This study will accrue 30 patients within 3 years.
