Clinical Trial Summary

This study is being done to see whether or not a drug called ibrutinib can be given to patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) as maintenance therapy after induction chemotherapy. This drug blocks an enzyme that affects how the lymphocytes grow and survive. The investigators hope to learn how safe and effective ibrutinib is for treating patients with MCL after responding to induction chemotherapy.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the progression-free survival (PFS) rate after 3 years.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess toxicity. II. Determine rates of conversion from partial response (PR) to complete response (CR).

III. Determine median overall survival (OS) after 4 years.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Compare minimal residual disease (MRD) results overtime by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and correlate these with PFS and OS.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive ibrutinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 4 years in the absence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or patient preference.

After completion of study treatment, patients who completed 4 years of treatment are followed up at 30 days. Patients who did not complete 4 years of treatment are followed up for up to 4 years post-first dose of treatment (every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 4 years).

• Adequately treated cervical carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease

• Patients with a history of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within 6 months prior to registration are not eligible

• Patients who require anticoagulation with warfarin or equivalent vitamin K antagonists are not eligible

• Patients who require chronic treatment with strong cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4/5 (CYP3A4/5) inhibitors are not eligible

• NOTE: Patients who are currently on treatment with strong CYP3A4/5 inhibitors may be eligible if they are able to be switched to an alternative therapy that is not a strong CYP3A4/5 inhibitor prior to registration on study

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Compare Minimum Residual Disease (MRD) Results Overtime by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Correlate These With PFS and OS	Archived tissue from a previous biopsy from all patients will be obtained for baseline clone identification; in addition, peripheral whole blood samples will be collected at four time points. MRD analysis will be conducted using PCR methods and results will be compared over time and correlated with PFS and OS.	Four time-points: baseline (pre-treatment), after 1 month and 6 months of treatment, and approximately 18-24 months post-first dose of treatment
Primary	Determine the Progression-free Survival (PFS) Rate After 3 Years	PFS will be measured from start of treatment to time of progression. Evidence of clinical progression will be documented by imaging (CT scan) for patients who have measurable disease. Progression is defined using the LUGANO Criteria, as a Deauville score of 4 or 5 (increased uptake compared to baseline) or the appearance of new lesions	Assessed at 3 years
Secondary	Incidence of Adverse Events, Defined According to the National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0	To assess toxicity, all adverse events will be summarized as to type, severity, frequency, timing and attribution. Treatment related Adverse Events Occurring with Incidence of greater that or equal to 20% of patients treated with Ibrutinib Maintenance are shown here.	Up to 30 days after completion of study treatment, maximum 4 years post-first dose
Secondary	Rate of Conversion From Partial Response (PR) to Complete Response (CR)	Progression will be evaluated using Cheson 2007 criteria, only patients who had a PR at the time of registration and who complete = 1 complete cycle of ibrutinib maintenance therapy will be evaluable for this endpoint.	Up to 4 years
Secondary	Overall Survival (OS) After 4 Years	Patients will be evaluated monthly for the first 6 months on treatment, then every 3 months thereafter. Patients who go off treatment will continue to be followed for up to 4 years post-first dose. Follow-up will occur every 3 months (up to 2 years after the first dose of treatment) and then every 6 months thereafter (up to 4 years post-first dose). OS after 4 years will be calculated as a percentage of patient alive.	Up to 4 years post-first dose
