Cyclosporine, Pravastatin Sodium, Etoposide, and Mitoxantrone Hydrochloride in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Summary
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of etoposide and mitoxantrone hydrochloride when given together with cyclosporine and pravastatin sodium and to see how well they work in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Cyclosporine may inhibit efflux of cancer drugs out of cancer cells and may thereby improve chemotherapy treatment for AML. Pravastatin sodium may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the nutrients needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as etoposide and mitoxantrone hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving cyclosporine together with pravastatin sodium, etoposide, and mitoxantrone hydrochloride may kill more cancer cells
