Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: For part A of the study (if applicable): 1.To assess the safety and tolerability of lenalidomide added to standard induction chemotherapy for AML (frequency and severity of toxicities and the durations of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia) and select the feasible dose level for part B 2.To assess in a randomized comparison the effect of lenalidomide on the CR rate. For part B: 1.To assess the safety and tolerability of lenalidomide added to standard induction chemotherapy for AML (frequency and severity of toxicities and the durations of neutropenia and thrombocytopenia) as regards the selected dose level of lenalidomide 2.To assess in a randomized comparison the effect of lenalidomide on the CR rate. ;Secondary Objective: For part B: 1.To determine the efficacy profile (event free survival and disease free survival and overall survival) associated with the two therapy regimens. 2.To measure MRD by immunophenotyping in relation to clinical response parameters. 3.To identify potential biomarkers predictive of response, event free survival and disease free survival by exploratory proteomic and genomic analysis (microarray, gene mutations) ;Primary end point(s): - Incidence of DLT (part A) - The effect of lenalidomide on the CR rate (part B of study) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The final analysis of the primary endpoints will be done one year after last patient is registered in the lenalidomide arm. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. To determine the efficacy profile (event free survival (EFS) disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)) associated with the two therapy regimens. 2. To measure MRD by immunophenotyping in relation to clinical response parameters. 3. To identify potential biomarkers predictive of response, EFS, DFS and OS by exploratory genomic analysis (microarray, gene mutations);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The final analysis of the secondary endpoints will be done one year after last patient is registered in the lenalidomide arm. | — |
