About this study

Official title: S0910, A Phase II Study of Epratuzumab (NSC-716711) in Combination With Cytarabine and Clofarabine for Patients With Relapsed or Refractory Ph- Negative Precursor B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as epratuzumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cytarabine and clofarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving epratuzumab together with cytarabine and clofarabine may kill more cancer cells.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well giving epratuzumab together with cytarabine and clofarabine works in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To test whether the complete remission (CR) rate (CR and incomplete CR) in adult patients with relapsed or refractory precursor B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia is sufficiently high after treatment with cytarabine, clofarabine, and epratuzumab to warrant further investigation.
  • To estimate the frequency and severity of toxicities associated with the dosing schedule of cytarabine, clofarabine, and epratuzumab used in this study.
  • To investigate, preliminarily, the effect of laboratory correlates (minimal post-treatment residual disease) and cytogenetic factors on prognosis in this patient population. (Not reported here due to limited MRD data)

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive cytarabine IV over 2 hours on days 1-5, clofarabine IV over 1 hour on days 2-6, and epratuzumab IV over at least 1 hour on days 7, 14, 21, and 28 in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity*.

NOTE: * Prophylactic intrathecal methotrexate is required for patients < 22 years of age, and is recommended (but not required) for patients ≥ 22 years of age.

Blood samples, bone marrow samples, and/or tumor tissue samples may be collected for further laboratory analysis.

Patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, then annually for 3 years (until 5 years after registration).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complete Remission

    Complete remission (CR) is defined as: <5% marrow aspirate blasts. Blasts can be >=5% if the blasts are found to be myeloid and there is no evidence of lymphoblasts by flow cytometry or immunostaining. Neutrophils >= 1000/mcl; platelets >100,000/mcl; and no blasts in the peripheral blood. C1 Extramedullary disease status as defined in the protocol. Complete remission with incomplete platelet recovery (CRi) is same as CR but platelet count may be <=100,000/mcl and/or ANC may be <1,000/mcl.

    Measured: After induction therapy was completed (1 or 2 months)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Number of Patients With Grade 3 Through 5 Treatment-Related Adverse Events

    Only adverse events that are possibly, probably or definitely related to study drug are reported. Any CTCAE 4.0 event of Grade 3 (severe), Grade 4 (life threatening), or Grade 5 (fatal) which were deemed to be related to protocol treatment are included.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing epratuzumab, clofarabine and cytarabine in people with Leukemia, run by SWOG Cancer Research Network at 81 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 81 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 Jan 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete Remission (time frame: After induction therapy was completed (1 or 2 months)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00945815, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Nov 2017.
