Study:
A Phase I/II Study of CLOLAR® (Clofarabine, IND# 73, 789) in Combination With Cytarabine in Pediatric Patients With Refractory/Relapsed Leukemia
Rationale:
Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as clofarabine and cytarabine, work in different
ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them
from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer
cells.
Purpose:
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of clofarabine
when given together with cytarabine and to see how well they work in treating young patients
with refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia. (Phase I
closed to enrollment as of 09/16/09)
