Blinatumomab Consolidation Post Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL)

NCT03072771

Description:

Based on the further need to improve progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) post autologous stem cell transplant (SCT) for DLBCL, the hematopoietic profile of patients following auto-SCT, the activity of blinatumomab in DLBCL and its favorable toxicity profile, the investigators propose a pilot study to test blinatumomab as consolidation therapy post auto-SCT for patients with DLBCL. The investigators hypothesize the blinatumomab consolidation will optimize the effector to target (E-T) ratio and aid in the eradication of remaining tumor cells, leading to decreased relapse and increased overall survival. In addition, since tumor burden will be at a minimum, infusional toxicities including neurologic toxicities may also be limited. The purpose of this pilot study is to study the feasibility and tolerability of blinatumomab consolidation post auto-SCT for patients with chemo-sensitive DLBCL undergoing auto-SCT.

ASCT + BEAM + BlinatumomabExperimentalStandard of care ASCT with BEAM conditioning (carmustine/etoposide/cytarabine/melphalan) - guidelines below, other conditionings are allowed: carmustine is typically given intravenously (IV) at a dose of 300 mg/m^2 on Day -7 etoposide is typically given IV at a dose of 100 mg/m^2 twice per day (BID) on Days -6, -5, -4, and -3 (8 doses) cytarabine is typically given IV at a dose of 100 mg/m^2 BID on Days -6, -5, -4, and -3 (8 doses) melphalan is typically given IV at a dose of 140 mg/m*2 on Day -2 Auto-SCT will take place on Day 0 as per institutional guidelines Consolidation with blinatumomab will start 6 weeks following auto-SCT. Patients with CR or PR based on pre-transplant PET/CT will receive blinatumomab as a continuous IV infusion (CIVI) at 9μg/day for 1 week, then 28μg/day for 3 weeks (total of 4 weeks).

Eligibility Criteria

        Pre-ASCT Inclusion Criteria

          -  At least 18 years of age

          -  Histologically confirmed diagnosis of CD19 positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
             (DLBCL) or transformed large cell lymphoma from low grade lymphoma.

          -  Chemo-sensitive (defined by complete remission (CR) or partial remission (PR) to most
             recent chemo regimen) based on pre-transplant positron emission tomography (PET)
             within 2 months of autologous transplant

          -  Patients with bulky disease are eligible for study provided that the patient not
             undergo radiation therapy until 30 days after the end of blinatumomab administration.

          -  Available representative tissue (from fresh or formalin fixed paraffin embedded
             tissue) from the most recent biopsy or archival tumor tissue for Clonotype evaluation
             for minimal residual disease (MRD) testing.

        Pre-ASCT Exclusion Criteria

          -  Chemo-resistant (defined by stable disease (SD) or progressive disease (PD) to most
             recent chemo regimen)

          -  Pregnant or breastfeeding

          -  Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL)

          -  Clinically relevant CNS pathology such as epilepsy, childhood or adult seizure,
