Clinical Trial Summary

The trial proposed here attempts to reduce induction chemotherapy to phase I of standard induction in patients with B-precursor ALL. Induction phase II will be replaced by blinatumomab. The initial treatment phase is followed by sequential chemotherapy and further blinatumomab cycles.


Clinical Trial Description

Blinatumomab is a bispecific single-chain antibody construct designed to link B cells and T cells resulting in T-cell activation and a cytotoxic T-cell response against CD19 expressing cells. In Phase II-III clinical trials 43-69 % of the patients treated with blinatumomab in relapsed/refractory ALL with poor prognostic features, achieved a complete hematologic remission and around 80 % of these obtained a molecular remission as well. Blinatumomab thus has demonstrated significant antileukemic activity in relapsed/refractory adult ALL. The ultimate goal for optimised management of adult ALL is to integrate targeted compounds with known single-drug activity into first-line treatment. ;
