506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Clinical Trials Data presented on Clinical Trials Search is not meant to be a substitute for qualified health advice, visits or treatment with a real mD. We are not doctors. Always consult your doctor about 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site devoted to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Clinical research trials and 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma healthcare trials happen in many of places across the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectivity of new drugs. The purpose of the studies / projects is to solve particular human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for doctors, government agencies, and private sector companies to discover cures for all varieties of conditions, such as 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to have health treatment alternatives before they are available to the masses. Some times the human subjects obtain treatment for without cost, and sometimes they are compensated for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma clinical trial. Test subjects oftentimes receive the most effective healthcare possible for their 506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma condition. Dangers are a reality, however, and may include extra or frequent physician visits, healthcare dangers (possibly life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally governed with rigorous guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma



506U78 in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or T-cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma

For Condition: recurrent adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia,T-cell adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia,recurrent adult lymphoblastic lymphoma
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): National Cancer Institute (NCI) ,
Synopsis: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Clinical trial to study the effectiveness of 506U78 in treating patients who have relapsed or refractoryT-cellacute lymphoblastic leukemia or T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.
Details: OBJECTIVES: - Provide an investigational agent, 506U78, to physicians for the management of individual patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic (lymphocytic) leukemia or T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma who are not candidates for entry onto ongoing research clinical trials of higher priority. - Evaluate the toxic effects of 506U78 when administered as a 2 hour IV infusion 3 days a week every 21 days in these patients. - Evaluate the antitumor efficacy of this regimen in terms of rate of complete responses in these patients. OUTLINE: Patients receive 506U78 over 2 hours on days 1, 3, and 5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for a maximum of 12 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Patients are followed every 3 months for one year and then every 6 months until death. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A minimum of 25 patients will be accrued for this study.
