Ibrutinib and Blinatumomab in Treating Patients With Relapsed or Refractory B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

NCT02997761

Description:

This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib and blinatumomab work in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back or is not responding to treatment. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving ibrutinib and blinatumomab may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory B acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Purpose

This phase II trial studies how well ibrutinib and blinatumomab work in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia that has come back or is not responding to treatment. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving ibrutinib and blinatumomab may work better in treating patients with relapsed or refractory B acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To evaluate the efficacy of ibrutinib and blinatumomab in patients with relapsed or
      refractory B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) as measured by complete response (CR) rate.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To further examine the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib and blinatumomab in patients with
      relapsed or refractory B-ALL as measured by overall response rate (ORR, defined as CR plus CR
      with incomplete count recovery [CRi]), relapse free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS),
      minimal residual disease (MRD) response, proportion of patients bridged to allogeneic
      hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT), and toxicity.

Treatment (ibrutinib, blinatumomab)ExperimentalINDUCTION THERAPY: Patients receive ibrutinib PO QD on days 1-49 of course 1 and days 1-42 of course 2, and blinatumomab IV on days 8-35 of course 1 and days 1-28 of course 2 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. CONSOLIDATION THERAPY: Patients with CR/CRi after Induction Therapy receive ibrutinib PO QD on days 1-42 and blinatumomab IV on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 42 days for up to 3 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. MAINTENANCE THERAPY: Patients receive ibrutinib PO QD on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
