Ofatumumab With High Dose Methylprednisone Followed by Ofatumumab and Alemtuzumab in 17p CLL

NCT01465334

Description:

The main purpose of this study is to examine how two separate groups of 17p deletion Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) participants respond to sequential treatment with this particular combination of drugs. The two groups are those participants who have previously received treatment for their CLL and those who have not yet received any treatment. The combination of drugs is Ofatumumab and High-Dose Methylprednisolone (HDMP) first followed by Ofatumumab and Alemtuzumab. All three drugs are FDA approved and have known activity in treating 17p CLL. We hope that by combining these drugs together in this study, they will have more benefit than each one alone and that the subjects' CLL will be significantly impacted.

Detailed Description

      Participants were assigned to 1 of 2 groups based on prior treatment status. Both groups
      received the same therapy.

      Part A: Ofatumumab + HDMP 2-4 cycles Part B: Ofatumumab + Alemtuzumab 1-6 cycles Part C:
      Maintenance with Ofatumumab + Alemtuzumab up to 2 years

      Between days 15-22 of Cycle 2 of Part A, participants are restaged. Participants who achieve
      nodal complete response discontinue Part A therapy and undergo minimal residual disease (MRD)
      assessment to guide the decision whether to go to Part B or Part C. The participants with
      persistent disease after 2 cycles of Part A therapy receive 2 more cycles of Part A therapy
      and then undergo another restaging as well as MRD assessment. At restaging, participants with
      minimal disease are eligible for Part C or allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) off
      protocol. The remaining participants receive Part B therapy. On Part B, restaging occurs at
      weeks 12 and 18. If MRD negative complete response (CR) status is achieved then therapy is
      discontinued and the primary endpoint evaluation occurs 2 months later. Otherwise with
      persistent disease Part B therapy continues up to 24 weeks and the primary endpoint
      evaluation occurs after Part B therapy is completed. Participants who achieve clinical
      complete response may receive Part C therapy or be observed while waiting SCT.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Induction Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame:Disease was evaluated after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A and at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B.
Safety Issue:
Description:Induction ORR is the percentage of participants achieving a minimum of partial response (PR) over induction treatment based on International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IW-CLL) criteria (Hallek, et al 2008). There are numerous diagnostic tests used for response evaluation including potentially CBC and differential count, marrow aspirate and biopsy, ultrasound of the abdomen, CT scans (chest, pelvis, abdomen) and physical examination. PR is a 50% or greater decrease of measured size of lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly as well as blood lymphocytes (over baseline), marrow infiltrate or B-lymphoid nodules and a 50% or greater increase from baseline in platelet count (or level >100,000/micro liter), hemoglobin (or level >11 grams/deciliter), neutrophils (or level >1500/microliter).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Number of Participants Achieving Induction Complete Response (CR)
Time Frame:Disease was evaluated after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A and at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B.

There are numerous diagnostic tests used for response evaluation including potentially CBC and differential count, marrow aspirate and biopsy, ultrasound of the abdomen, CT scans (chest, pelvis, abdomen) and physical examination. CR is absence of significant lymphadenopathy (nodes<1.5 centimeters in long axis diameter), hepatomegaly, splenomegaly as well as blood lymphocytes<4000/microliter, normocellular for age marrow with <30% lymphocytes, no B-lymphoid nodules and platelet>100,000/micro liter, hemoglobin>11 grams/deciliter, neutrophils>1500/microliter.
Measure:Overall Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame:Disease was evaluated after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A, at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B and every 6 months on Part C.
Safety Issue:
Description:Overall ORR is the percentage of participants achieving a minimum of partial response (PR) over induction and maintenance treatment based on International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IW-CLL) criteria (Hallek, et al 2008). There are numerous diagnostic tests used for response evaluation including potentially CBC and differential count, marrow aspirate and biopsy, ultrasound of the abdomen, CT scans (chest, pelvis, abdomen) and physical examination. PR is a 50% or greater decrease of measured size of lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly as well as blood lymphocytes (over baseline), marrow infiltrate or B-lymphoid nodules and a 50% or greater increase from baseline in platelet count (or level >100,000/micro liter), hemoglobin (or level >11 grams/deciliter), neutrophils (or level >1500/microliter).
Measure:Number of Participants With Overall CR
Time Frame:Disease was evaluated after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A, at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B and every 6 months on Part C.
Safety Issue:
Description:CR overall (induction and maintenance treatment) was based on International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IW-CLL) criteria (Hallek, et al 2008). There are numerous diagnostic tests used for response evaluation including potentially CBC and differential count, marrow aspirate and biopsy, ultrasound of the abdomen, CT scans (chest, pelvis, abdomen) and physical examination. CR is absence of significant lymphadenopathy (nodes<1.5 centimeters in long axis diameter), hepatomegaly, splenomegaly as well as blood lymphocytes<4000/microliter, normocellular for age marrow with <30% lymphocytes, no B-lymphoid nodules and platelet>100,000/micro liter, hemoglobin>11 grams/deciliter, neutrophils>1500/microliter.
Measure:Overall MRD Negative Rate
Time Frame:MRD was assessed after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A, at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B and every 6 months on Part C.
Safety Issue:
Description:Overall MRD negative rate is the percentage of participants classified as MRD negative by four color flow cytometry. The assay has a sensitivity of 1 in 10,000 leukocytes.
Measure:Transplant Rate
Time Frame:Evaluated up to 36 cycles (approximately 2.75 years) of treatment (Parts A, B and C)
Safety Issue:
Description:Percentage of participants eligible for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) that are able and willing to proceed to alloHSCT.
Measure:Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Grades 1-3 Hyperglycemia During Part A Induction
Time Frame:Adverse Events (AEs) were collected weekly during cycle 1 Part A and then every other week for the duration of Part A (up to 16 weeks)
Safety Issue:
Description:Participants ever experiencing a grade 1-3 hyperglycemia event based on CTCAEv4 with treatment attribution of possible, probably or definite as reported on case report forms were counted.
Measure:3-Year Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Probability
Time Frame:Disease was evaluated on treatment after weeks 8 and 16 of Part A, at 12, 18 and 24 weeks during part B and every 6 months on Part C as well as off-treatment every 3 months up to 5 years.
Safety Issue:
Description:3-year PFS is the probability of participants remaining alive and progression-free at 3 years from study entry estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods. Disease progression (PD) per International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IW-CLL) criteria (Hallek, et al 2008) is: the appearance of any new lesion (enlarged lymph node minimum >1.5 centimeters); an increase by 50% in greatest determined diameter of any previous site; an increase in the previously noted enlargement of the liver or spleen by 50% or more or the de novo appearance of hepatomegaly, splenomegaly; a 50% increase of blood lymphocytes (over baseline with level at least 5,000/microliter); occurrence of cytopenia secondary to CLL at least 3 months post treatment including a 50% or greater decrease from baseline in platelet count (or level <100,000/microliter) or a hemoglobin decrease of >2 grams/deciliter (or level <10 grams/deciliter); and transformation to a more aggressive histology.
Measure:3-year Overall Survival (OS) Probability
Time Frame:Median survival follow-up was 45 months (range 31-58 months) in this study cohort.
Safety Issue:
Description:3-year OS is the probability of participants remaining alive at 3 years from study entry estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods.
