CC-486, Lenalidomide, and Obinutuzumab for the Treatment of Recurrent or Refractory CD20 Positive B-cell Lymphoma

NCT04578600

Description:

This phase I/Ib trial investigates the side effects of CC-486 and how well it works in combination with lenalidomide and obinutuzumab in treating patients with CD20 positive B-cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or has not responded to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as CC-486, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Lenalidomide is a drug that alters the immune system and may also interfere with the development of tiny blood vessels that help support tumor growth. Therefore, in theory, it may reduce or prevent the growth of cancer cells. Obinutuzumab is a type of antibody therapy that targets and attaches to the CD20 proteins found on follicular lymphoma cells as well as some healthy blood cells. Once attached to the CD20 protein the obinutuzumab is thought to work in different ways, including by helping the immune system destroy the cancer cells and by destroying the cancer cells directly. Giving CC-486 with lenalidomide and obinutuzumab may improve response rates, quality, and duration, and minimize adverse events in patients with B-cell lymphoma.

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      To assess the safety and toxicity of oral azacitidine (CC-486) in combination with
      lenalidomide and obinutuzumab.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To evaluate the efficacy of CC-486 in combination with lenalidomide and obinutuzumab in
      subjects with relapsed/refractory indolent B-cell lymphoma as assessed by:

      Ia. Overall response rate: complete response (CR) + partial response (PR) per 2016 Lugano
      criteria and Lymphoma Response to Immunomodulatory Therapy Criteria (LYRIC) criteria.

      Ib. Duration of response (DOR): will be calculated from time of initial response assessment
      demonstrating at least PR until disease response assessment that demonstrates progressive
      disease.

      Ic. Time to response (TTR): calculated as time from registration to first disease response
      assessment that demonstrates at least PR.

      Id. Progression-free survival (PFS): Patients are considered a failure for this endpoint if
      they die or if they relapse/progress or receive additional anti-lymphoma therapy.

      Ie. Determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).

NameTypeDescriptionInterventions
Treatment (lenalidomide, oral azacitidine, obinutuzumab)ExperimentalPatients receive azacitidine PO QD on days 1-21, obinutuzumab IV over on days 8, 15, 22, and 29, and lenalidomide PO QD on days 8-28 of cycle 1. Treatment continues for 35 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive azacitidine PO QD on days 1-21, obinutuzumab IV over on day 1, and lenalidomide PO QD on days 1-21. Cycles repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or until stem cell transplant. Patients who achieve SD, PR, or CR do not proceed to stem cell transplant may continue treatment for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Primary Outcome Measures

Measure:Incidence of adverse events (AEs)
Time Frame:Up to 30 days post-last dose
Safety Issue:
Description:Safety summaries will include tabulations in the form of tables and listings. The frequency (number and percentage) of treatment-emergent AEs will be reported. The frequency of treatment-emergent AEs requiring discontinuation of study drug or dose reductions will be reported. Additional AE summaries will include AE frequency by AE severity and by relationship to study drug. Toxicity data by type and severity will be summarized by frequency tables. Per-treated analysis will be performed to include any patient who received the treatment regardless of the eligibility nor the duration or dose of the treatment received.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Complete response rate
Time Frame:At 48 weeks
Safety Issue:
Description:Response will be assessed based on Cheson, Lugano classification 2016. The number and percentage of subjects with a complete response at 120 weeks will be tabulated.
Measure:Overall response rate (ORR) (complete response + partial response)
Time Frame:Up to 2 years
Safety Issue:
Description:Will be assessed by the investigator based on Cheson, Lugano classification 2016. The number and percentage of subjects with an ORR will be tabulated. The best ORR will be recorded.
Measure:Duration of response
Time Frame:From the time by which measurement criteria for complete response or partial response, whichever is recorded first, is met until death or the first date by which progressive disease is documented, assessed up to 2 years
