Purpose

This study is designed to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and the safety, and efficacy of durvalumab as monotherapy and when given in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab; ibrutinib; or bendamustine and rituximab at the RP2D in adults with lymphoma or chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Detailed Description

      The study was to consist of 3 parts: dose-finding, dose-confirmation, and dose-expansion. In
      this study, 4 treatment arms were to be investigated:

        -  Arm A: durvalumab and lenalidomide ± rituximab

        -  Arm B: durvalumab and ibrutinib

        -  Arm C: durvalumab and rituximab ± bendamustine

        -  Arm D: durvalumab (monotherapy)

      The study was to start with 3 dose-finding cohorts (Arms A, B, and C) and 1 dose-confirmation
      cohort (Arm D) in parallel. All treatment arms were to be open for enrollment at study start
      except in the US, where Arm D was to enroll depending on the availability of treatment slots
      and following the completion of assessment of responses from the combination therapy arms.
      For Arms A and C, prior to enrolling participants to receive all 3 drugs, the doublet
      combinations were to be evaluated. Once the doublet combinations were deemed tolerable, the
      eventual triplet combinations were to be tested.

      On 05 September 2017, the US FDA issued a Partial Clinical Hold on the study Arm A. Following
      this Partial Clinical Hold no more participants were enrolled into study Arm A. Participants
      already enrolled and treated in Arm A who were receiving clinical benefit, based on the
      discretion of the investigator, could continue study treatment after being reconsented. Arm B
      and C completed dose confirmation. The dose expansion part of the study was not opened.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Part 1: Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Time Frame:Cycle 1 (28 days)
Safety Issue:
Description:Dose limiting toxicities were evaluated during the DLT evaluation period for participants in the dose finding cohorts. The severity grading was determined according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) Version 4.03. A DLT is defined as below: Hematologic DLT Grade 4 neutropenia observed for greater than 5 days duration Grade 3 neutropenia associated with fever (≥ 38.5 °C) of any duration Grade 4 thrombocytopenia or Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with bleeding, or any requirement for platelets transfusion Grade 4 anemia, unexplained by underlying disease Any other grade 4 hematologic toxicity that does not resolve to participant's pretreatment baseline level within 72 hours. Non-Hematologic DLT Any non-hematological toxicity ≥ Grade 3 except for alopecia and nausea controlled by medical management Any treatment interruption greater than 2 weeks due to adverse event.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Overall Response Rate (ORR) During Durvalumab Treatment
Time Frame:Up to 13 cycles (12 months)
Safety Issue:
Description:For lymphoma participants, response evaluation was based on International Working Group (IWG) response criteria for malignant lymphoma (the Lugano Classification). Overall response rate is defined as the percent of participants with best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). For chronic lymphocytic leukemia participants, response evaluation was based on International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of CLL. The ORR is defined as the percent of participants with best response of CR, complete response with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi), nodular partial response (nPR), PR, or partial response with lymphocytosis (PRL).
Measure:Overall Response Rate During the Entire Study
Time Frame:From first dose of any study drug to the end of follow-up, up to the data cutoff date of March 6, 2019; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 16.7 (0.9, 32.9) months.
Safety Issue:
Description:For lymphoma participants, response evaluation was based on International Working Group (IWG) response criteria for malignant lymphoma (the Lugano Classification) (Cheson, 2014). Overall response rate is defined as the percent of participants with best response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). For chronic lymphocytic leukemia participants, response evaluation was based on International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of CLL. The ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with best response of CR, complete response with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi), nodular partial response (nPR), PR, or partial response with lymphocytosis (PRL).
Measure:Time to First Response
Time Frame:From first dose of any study drug to the end of follow-up, up to the data cutoff date of March 6, 2019; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 16.7 (0.9, 32.9) months.
Safety Issue:
Description:Time to response was calculated as the time from first dose of study drug to the first response date (CR or PR for lymphoma participants and CR, CRi, nPR, PR, or PRL for CLL participants).
Measure:Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Duration of Response
Time Frame:From first dose of any study drug to the end of follow-up, up to the data cutoff date of March 6, 2019; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 16.7 (0.9, 32.9) months.
Safety Issue:
Description:Duration of response is defined for responders only as the time from the first documented response (CR or PR for lymphoma participants or CR, CRi, nPR, PR, or PRL for CLL participants) to disease progression or death (from any cause). For participants with response but no progression, or death, duration of response was censored at the last date that the participant was known to be progression-free.
Measure:Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame:From first dose of any study drug to the end of follow-up, up to the data cutoff date of March 6, 2019; median (minimum, maximum) time on study was 16.7 (0.9, 32.9) months.
Safety Issue:
Description:Progression-free survival was calculated as the time from first dose of study drug to the first documented progression or death (from any cause) during the entire efficacy evaluation period. For participants with no progression or death, PFS was censored at the last assessment date the participant was known to be progression-free.
