Clinical Trial Summary

This randomized, open-label, parallel group study will assess the effect on response rate and the safety of MabThera added to either bendamustine or chlorambucil in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Patients will be randomized to receive six 4-week cycles of either A) MabThera (375mg/m2 iv day 1 of cycle 1, 500mg/m2 iv cycles 2-6) plus bendamustine (90mg/m2 as first-line or 70mg/m2 as second-line therapy, iv on days 1 and 2, cycles 1-6), or B)MabThera plus chlorambucil (10mg/m2 po daily, days 1-7, cycles 1-6). Patients in group B can receive up to 6 further cycles of chlorambucil as monotherapy. Anticipated time on study treatment is 6-12 months, and target sample size is 600-700 individuals.

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Percentage of Participants Achieving Confirmed Complete Response (CR) According to International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (IWCLL) 2008 Guidelines in the First-Line Subpopulation After 6 Cycles of Therapy The definition of confirmed CR required all of the following criteria as assessed at least 2 months after completion of therapy: peripheral blood lymphocytes less than (<) 4 times 10^9 cells per liter (cells/L); absence of significant lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, or splenomegaly due to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) involvement; absence of constitutional symptoms; normal complete blood count (CBC) without need for transfusion or exogenous growth factors, as exhibited by neutrophils at least (>/=) 1.5 times 10^9 cells/L, platelets greater than (>) 100 times 10^9 cells/L, and hemoglobin > 11.0 grams per deciliter (g/dL); normocellular bone marrow (BM) aspirate with < 30 percent (%) lymphocytes; absence of lymphoid nodules; and BM biopsy without CLL activity. The percentage of participants achieving confirmed CR was calculated as the number of participants meeting the above criteria divided by the number of participants analyzed, multiplied by 100. At least 2 months after completion of therapy (up to 32 weeks) No
Secondary Percentage of Participants Achieving Confirmed CR According to IWCLL 2008 Guidelines in the Pooled Population After 6 Cycles of Therapy The definition of confirmed CR required all of the following criteria as assessed at least 2 months after completion of therapy: peripheral blood lymphocytes < 4 times 10^9 cells/L; absence of significant lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, or splenomegaly due to CLL involvement; absence of constitutional symptoms; normal CBC without need for transfusion or exogenous growth factors, as exhibited by neutrophils >/= 1.5 times 10^9 cells/L, platelets > 100 times 10^9 cells/L, and hemoglobin > 11.0 g/dL; normocellular BM aspirate with < 30% lymphocytes; absence of lymphoid nodules; and BM biopsy without CLL activity.

The definition of PR required that the following be documented for minimum 2 months: >/= 50% decrease in peripheral blood lymphocytes from Baseline; reduction in lymphadenopathy; >/= 50% reduction in spleen or liver enlargement; and CBC with one of the following without need for transfusion or exogenous growth factors: polymorphonuclear leukocytes >/= 1.5 times 10^9 cells/L, platelets > 100 times 10^9 cells/L or >/= 50% improvement from Baseline, or hemoglobin > 11.0 g/dL or >/= 50% improvement from Baseline. Participants with lymphoid nodules who otherwise met CR criteria were considered nPR. The percentage of participants achieving each level of response was calculated as the number of participants meeting the above criteria divided by the number of participants analyzed, multiplied by 100.
