Adverse events — posted to ClinicalTrials.gov

Time frame: At minimum, adverse event data were collected at screening, every 7 days during study treatment and at 28 days after the last dose of study treatment. Adverse event data were collected for a maximum of 93 days for all participants. All-cause mortality data was collected over a maximum of 317 days for all participants.. Reporting threshold: 0%. Adverse-event reports describe events observed during the trial — not all are caused by the drug.

Sponsor's own description

The purpose of the first part of this study is to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oral ciprofloxacin when given in combination with a fixed dose of oral etoposide in patients with resistant acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The purpose of the second part of this study is to determine if the established dose of oral ciprofloxacin in combination with oral etoposide is effective in the treatment of patients with resistant AML.
