Adult T-Cell Lymphoma/Leukemia clinical trials

Phase I Study of Recombinant Human IL-15 (rhIL-15) and Mogamulizumab for People With Refractory or Relapsed Adult T-Cell Leukemia and Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome

Background: Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and mycosis fungoides/Sezary syndrome (MF/SS) are cancers that form in the T cells, a type of white blood cell that helps with the body's immune response. A combination of drugs might be able to better treat these cancers than existing therapies. Objective: To test if the drugs interleukin-15 (IL-15) and mogamulizumab are safe and effective to treat people with Adult T-Cell Leukemia and Mycosis Fungoides/Sezary Syndrome (ATLL or MF/SS). Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with relapsed ATLL or MF/SS that has not responded to at least one standard treatment Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history Physical exam Blood (including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C), urine, lung, and heart tests Bone marrow tests (if needed): A needle inserted in the participants hip will take a small amount of marrow. Computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans Tumor biopsy (if needed): A needle will take out a small piece of the participants tumor. Participants will get the study drugs by vein for up to six 28-day cycles. They will get IL-15 the first 5 days of each cycle. They will get mogamulizumab on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 of cycle 1 and days 1 and 15 of the other cycles. They will be hospitalized for 1 week in cycle 1. They may need to get a midline catheter. This is a soft tube put into a vein leading to the heart. Participants will have repeats of the screening tests throughout the study. After treatment, participants will have visits every 60 days for 6 months, every 90 days for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 2 years.
