Official Title: A Phase II Study of CCI-779 in Patients With Relapsed, Refractory or Transformed Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Study ID: NCT00086840
Brief Summary: This phase II trial is studying how well CCI-779 works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CCI-779, work in different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the activity of CCI-779 in patients with relapsed, refractory, or transformed chronic lymphocytic leukemia. OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to disease (relapsed or refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia \[CLL\] vs transformed CLL). Patients receive CCI-779 IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients achieving an objective response may receive 3 consolidation courses of therapy.
