Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective is to evaluate the rate of complete remission/complete remission with partial hematological recovery (CRh*) in adults with relapsed/refractory Philadelphia chromosome positive (Ph+) B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who receive blinatumomab.


Description:

This is a single-arm Simon II stage design, multicenter study consisting of a screening period, an induction treatment period (2 cycles of blinatumomab), a consolidation treatment period (up to 3 additional cycles of blinatumomab for applicable participants), and a safety follow-up visit 30 days after treatment. Following the safety follow-up visit, participants will be followed for response duration and survival every 3 months for 18 months or death, whichever occurs first.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Percentage of Participants With Complete Remission/Complete Remission With Partial Hematological Recovery (CR/CRh*) During the First Two Treatment Cycles Participants were evaluated for efficacy at the end of each treatment cycle via a central bone marrow aspiration and local peripheral blood counts.
Complete remission was defined as meeting all 3 of the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow;
no evidence of disease
full recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 100,000/µl, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1000/µl.
Complete remission with partial hematological recovery (CRh*) was defined as meeting all 3 of the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow
no evidence of disease
partial recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 50,000/µl, and ANC > 500/µl.
Participants without a post-baseline disease assessment were considered non-responders.
Approximately 12 weeks, as of the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Remission During the First 2 Cycles of Treatment Bone marrow samples were evaluated for MRD remission by a central laboratory using bcr-abl fusion gene reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
An MRD response was defined as MRD < 10^-4 measured by PCR. Participants with no post-baseline MRD assessment were considered non-responders.
Approximately 12 weeks
Secondary Duration of CR or CRh* Response Duration of response was measured for participants in remission (CR/CRh*), and was measured from the time the participant first achieved remission until first documented relapse or death from disease progression. Participants without a documented relapse (hematological or extramedullary) and who did not die were censored at the time of the last bone marrow assessment or the last survival follow-up visit to confirm remission. Participants who died without having reported hematological relapse or without showing any clinical sign of disease progression were censored on their date of death. Up to the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015; median observation time was 7.0 months
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Complete Remission (CR) During the First Two Treatment Cycles Participants were evaluated for efficacy at the end of each treatment cycle via a central bone marrow aspiration and local peripheral blood counts.
Complete remission was defined as meeting all 3 of the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow;
no evidence of disease;
full recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 100,000/µl, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1000/µl.
Participants without a post-baseline disease assessment were considered non-responders.
Approximately 12 weeks, as of the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Complete Remission With Partial Hematological Recovery (CRh*) During the First Two Treatment Cycles Participants were evaluated for efficacy at the end of each treatment cycle via a central bone marrow aspiration and local peripheral blood counts.

Participants without a post-baseline disease assessment were considered non-responders.
Approximately 12 weeks, as of the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015
Secondary Percentage of Participants With Complete Remission/Complete Remission With Partial Hematological Recovery/Complete Remission With Incomplete Hematological Recovery (CR/CRh*/CRi) During the First Two Treatment Cycles Efficacy was evaluated via a central bone marrow aspiration and local peripheral blood counts.
Complete remission was defined as meeting the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow;
no evidence of disease;
full recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 100,000/µl, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 1000/µl.
Complete remission with partial hematological recovery was defined as meeting the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow;
no evidence of disease;
partial recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 50,000/µl, and ANC > 500/µl.
Complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery was defined as meeting all of the following criteria:
less than or equal to 5% blasts in the bone marrow;
no evidence of disease;
incomplete recovery of peripheral blood counts: platelets > 100,000/µl or ANC > 1000/µl.
Participants without a post-baseline disease assessment were considered non-responders.
Approximately 12 weeks, as of the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015
Secondary Overall Survival Overall survival was assessed from the date the participant received the first infusion of blinatumomab until death from any cause or the date of the last follow-up.
Participants still alive at the data cut-off date were censored on the last documented visit date or the date of the last contact when the patient was last known to have been alive.
From first dose of blinatumomab until the data cut-off date; median observation time was 8.8 months.
Secondary Percentage of Participants Who Received an Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) During Blinatumomab Induced Remission Participants who achieved remission (CR/CRh*) during the first 2 cycles of treatment and received an allogeneic HSCT. Up to the data cut-of date of 20 May 2015; Maximum duration on study was 14.5 months.
Secondary 100-Day Mortality After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant The analysis of 100-day mortality after allogeneic HSCT was assessed for participants who received an allogeneic HSCT while in remission (CR/CRh*) after 2 cycles of blinatumomab treatment and did not receive any additional antileukemic treatment. 100-day mortality after allogeneic HSCT was calculated relative to the date of allogeneic HSCT.
The 100-day mortality rate after allogeneic HSCT was defined as the percentage of participants having died up to 100 days after allogeneic HSCT estimated using the estimated time to death in percent calculated by Kaplan-Meier methods. Participants alive were censored on the last documented visit date or the date of the last phone contact when the patient was last known to have been alive.
From the date of allogeneic HSCT until the data cut-off date of 20 May 2015; median observation time was 3.2 months.
Secondary Number of Participants With Adverse Events Adverse events (AEs) were graded for severity according to the CTCAE version 4.0, where Grade 1: Mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated.
Grade 2: Moderate; minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living.
Grade 3: Severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self care activities of daily living.
Grade 4: Life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated. Grade 5: Death related to AE. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were those assessed by the investigator as possibly related to blinatumomab based on response to the question: Is there a reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by blinatumomab or other protocol-specified therapies/procedures?
From the first dose of blinatumomab until 30 days after the last dose, up to the cut-off date of 20 May 2015; the median duration of treatment was 53.8 days.
Secondary Number of Participants Who Developed Anti-blinatumomab Antibodies Anti-blinatumomab binding antibodies were evaluated with a validated blinatumomab anti-drug antibody assay with the electrochemiluminescence detection technology. Day 29 of each treatment period and 30 days after the last dose
Secondary Steady State Concentration of Blinatumomab Cycle 1, day 8, 6 to 8 hours after the dose step to 28 µg/day, and Cycle 2, day 1, 6 to 8 hours after blinatumomab infusion
