Adult T Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase III Randomized Trial Investigating Bortezomib (NSC# 681239) on a Modified Augmented BFM (ABFM) Backbone in Newly Diagnosed T-Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-ALL) and T-Lymphoblastic Lymphoma (T-LLy)
This randomized phase III trial compares how well combination chemotherapy works when given with or without bortezomib in treating patients with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or stage II-IV T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. Bortezomib may help reduce the number of leukemia or lymphoma cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It may also help chemotherapy work better by making cancer cells more sensitive to the drugs. It is not yet known if giving standard chemotherapy with or without bortezomib is more effective in treating newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare event-free survival (EFS) in patients with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LLy) who are randomized to a modified augmented Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster (ABFM) backbone versus bortezomib plus the modified ABFM backbone. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the safety and feasibility of modifying standard therapy for T-ALL and T-LLy based on the results of UKALL 2003, which includes a dexamethasone-based induction, additional doses of pegaspargase (PEG-ASP) during induction and delayed intensification (DI), and dexamethasone pulses during maintenance therapy. II. To determine if prophylactic (presymptomatic) cranial radiation therapy (CRT) can be safely and effectively eliminated in the 85-90% of T-ALL patients classified as standard or intermediate risk. III. To determine the proportion of end of consolidation (EOC) minimal residual disease (MRD) >= 0.1% T-ALL patients who become MRD negative (undetectable by flow cytometry) after intensification of chemotherapy, using three high risk (HR) BFM blocks, and to compare EFS between the patients who become MRD negative after the three HR BFM blocks and continue on chemotherapy with those who continue to have detectable MRD and are eligible for other treatment strategies, including hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). IV. To compare the EFS between very high risk (induction failure) T-LLy patients treated with HR BFM intensification blocks who have partial or complete response (PR or CR) with those who do not respond (NR). CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES: I. To investigate the prognostic significance of day 29 bone marrow (BM) MRD in T-LLy patients. II. To determine if protein expression patterns can predict bortezomib response and drug resistance in T-ALL. III. To analyze and target relevant signaling pathways in T-ALL blasts, focusing on early T cell precursor (ETP) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. Patients are risk assigned based on data from end of induction and/or consolidation therapy; this then modifies the subsequent therapy received. T-ALL Risk Group Definitions: Standard Risk (SR): CNS1*, lumbar puncture prior to steroid therapy (not steroid pretreated), Day 29 (end of induction) bone marrow M1, Day 29 bone marrow minimal residual disease (MRD) <=0.01%, no testicular leukemia at diagnosis. Intermediate Risk (IR): Not SR or VHR. Very High Risk (VHR): M3 marrow at Day 29 and/or end of consolidation (EOC) MRD >=0.1%. *CNS2 and CNS3 cannot be SR and are assigned to IR or VHR based on marrow response. T-LL Risk Group Definitions: Standard Risk (SR): CNS1*, MRD at diagnosis <1% in bone marrow, lumbar puncture prior to steroid therapy (not steroid pretreated), Day 29 (end of induction) complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). Intermediate Risk (IR): Not SR or VHR. Very High Risk (VHR): Stable Disease (SD)/No response (NR) at Day 29 (End of Induction). *CNS2 and CNS3 cannot be SR and are assigned to IR or VHR based on radiographic response. ARM A INDUCTION: Patients receive cytarabine intrathecally (IT) at time of diagnostic lumbar puncture (if within 72 hours from start of protocol therapy) OR day 1; vincristine sulfate intravenously (IV) over 1 minute on days 1, 8, 15, and 22; dexamethasone orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 (no taper); daunorubicin hydrochloride IV over 1-15 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22; pegaspargase IV over 1-2 hours on days 4 and 18; and methotrexate IT on days 8 and 29 (and on days 15 and 22 for central nervous system 3 involvement [CNS3] T-ALL patients).
