Venetoclax, SL-401, and Chemotherapy for the Treatment of Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm

NCT04216524

Description:

This phase II trial studies how well venetoclax, SL-401, and chemotherapy works in treating patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm. Venetoclax may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. SL-401 is a recombinant protein consisting of IL-3 linked to a toxic agent called DT. IL-3 attaches to IL-3 receptors on tumor cells in a targeted way and delivers DT to kill them. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving venetoclax and SL-401 with chemotherapy may be an effective treatment for patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      I. To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) at 12 months of venetoclax (VEN) in
      combination with chemotherapy and SL-401 (tagraxofusp [TAG]) in patients with newly diagnosed
      blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN).

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To determine the safety of the SL-401 in combination with VEN and in combination with
      chemotherapy in patients with newly diagnosed BPDCN by toxicity and futility monitoring.

      II. To determine the efficacy by measurement of progression free survival (PFS), overall
      response rate (ORR): complete response (CR) and complete response with incomplete marrow
      recovery (CRi), clinical complete response (CRc) and remission duration of SL-401 in
      combination with chemotherapy and VEN in patients with newly diagnosed BPDCN.

      III. To determine the rate of stem cell translant (SCT) within the first 8 cycles
      (understanding that some patients won't get SCT) in patients with newly diagnosed BPDCN.

      EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To examine expression and function of BCL-2 family proteins and its modulation by VEN in
      BPDCN blasts.

      II. To determine the rate of minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity in patients achieving
      CR/CRi/CRc and its correlation with disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS).

      III. To determine CD123 levels pre- and post-therapy. IV. To determine molecular mutations
      pre-and post- therapy as part of 81-gene panel by next-generation sequencing.

      OUTLINE:

      INDUCTION:

      CYCLE 1: Patients receive tagraxofusp-erzs (SL-401) intravenously (IV) once daily (QD) over
      15 minutes on days 1-5.

      CYCLES 2, 4, 6, and 8: Patients receive tagraxofusp-erzs IV QD over 15 minutes on days 1-5,

      on days 1-4 and 11-14.

      CYCLE 5: Patients receive venetoclax PO QD on days 1-7. Patients who age < 60 receive
      MTX/AraC and age >= 60 receive mini-MTX/AraC. Patients may receive rituximab IV over 4-6
      hours on days 1 and 8, cytarabine IT on day 5, and/or methotrexate IT on day 8.

      MTX/ARAC (AGE < 60): Patients receive methotrexate IV over 24 hours on day 1, and cytarabine
      IV over 3 hours Q12H on days 2 and 3.

      MINI-MTX/ARAC (AGE >= 60): Patients receive methotrexate IV over 24 hours on day 1,
      methylprednisolone IV over 2 hours Q12H on days 1-3, and cytarabine IV over 3 hours Q12H on
      days 2 and 3.

      ALL CYCLES: Treatment repeats every 28 days for 8 cycles in the absence of disease
      progression and unacceptable toxicity.

      MAINTENANCE: Patients receive venetoclax PO QD on days 1-7, POMP chemotherapy during cycles
      1-5, 7-11, and 13-17, and SL-401 IV QD on days 1-5 of cycles 6, 12, and 18. Treatment repeats
      every 28 days for 24 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

      POMP: Patients receive mercaptopurine PO three time daily (TID) on days 1-28, vincristine IV
      over 15 minutes on day 1, prednisone PO QD on days 1-5, and methotrexate PO once weekly.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, and then every 3
      months thereafter.
