Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Physicians Static Global (PSGA) Score
87 Days

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of oral escalating dosages of CEP-701 at 20, 40, 60, and 80 mg given twice daily (bid) in achieving complete or nearly clearing of psoriasis in patients with severe, recalcitrant, plaque-type psoriasis, as assessed by the Physicians Static Global (PSGA) at baseline and at the end of treatment. A PSGA score of 0 is defined as no evidence of plaque elevation, no evidence of erythema, and no evidence of scaling. A PSGA score of 5 is defined as plaque elevation (2.5 mm or greater)dusky to deep red coloration, very thick tenacious scale predominates.

Determine whether CEP-701 given in sequence with induction chemotherapy increases the proportion of patients with relapsed AML who achieve a second complete remission or a complete remission with incomplete platelet count recovery.
113 days
Blood Samples and/or bone marrow assessments for complete remission (CR), complete tumor clearance (CTC), or hematologic response (HR) from bone marrow
56 days

Response rate of patients with refactory, relapsed, or poor risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) expressing Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT-3) activating mutations. CR is defined as presence of less than 5% myeloblasts in bone marrow with normalized peripheral blood cell counts. HR is defined as a 50% or more decrease in the absolute number of peripheral blast count or at least a 50% reduction in bone marrow blasts.
