PHASE2

Brief Summary

This phase II trial studies how well dasatinib works in treating patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Dasatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed ...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To estimate the biologic target activity of dasatinib in CLL patients found to have pre-treatment in vitro dasatinib cytotoxicity (as defined by a \>= 50% decrease in absolute ...

  • Persons of reproductive potential must agree to use an adequate method of contraception throughout treatment and for at least 4 weeks after study drug is stopped prior to study enrollment; women of childbearing potential must be advised of the importance of avoiding pregnancy during trial participation and the potential risk factors for an unintentional pregnancy
  • After consent, discontinuation ("washout period") of any medications known to contribute significantly to the risk of QT prolongation or interfere with cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4 (CYP3A4) mediated drug metabolism
  • Patient agrees to discontinue St. John's Wort while receiving dasatinib therapy (discontinue St. John's Wort at least 5 days before starting dasatinib)
  • Patient agrees that IV bisphosphonates will be withheld for the first eight weeks of dasatinib therapy due to risk of hypocalcemia
  • Patient agrees to discontinue anti-coagulants and anti-platelet drugs; note: a low dose aspirin regimen (81mg QD) is permitted with close monitoring of the subject's platelets for a level \>= 50,000/mm\^3

Exclusion

  • Patients already taking other CYP inducers or inhibitors other than those listed above are eligible for the study only after principal investigator (PI) review; dose adjustments and/or monitoring of drug levels where applicable will be made as needed by the PI after consultation with pharmacy
  • Women who:
  • Are unwilling or unable to use an acceptable method to avoid pregnancy for the entire study period and for at least 4 weeks after cessation of study drug, or
  • Have a positive pregnancy test at baseline, or
