This phase I trial studies best dose and side effects of liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin-cytarabine (CPX-351) and how well it works in treating patients with high risk myelodysplastic syndrome or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia that has come back or has not responded to treatment. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposome-encapsulated daunorubicin-cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To characterize the safety and tolerability of CPX-351 in patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). (Dose Escalation Stage) II. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of intravenous CPX-351 in patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk MDS. (Dose Escalation Stage) III. To further characterize the safety and tolerability of CPX-351 in patients with intermediate-2 and high-risk MDS. (Dose-Expansion Stage) IV. To evaluate preliminary efficacy of CPX-351 in patients with intermediate-2 or high-risk MDS. (Dose-Expansion Stage) SECONDARY…
