About this study

Official title: A Phase I/II Clinical Trial of Lenalidomide in Combination With AT-101 for the Treatment of Relapsed B-Cell Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (B-CLL)

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of lenalidomide when given together with R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid and to see how well they work in treating patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) that has returned after a period of improvement (relapsed). Biological therapies, such as lenalidomide, may stimulate the immune system to attack cancer cells. R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and causing the cells to die. Giving lenalidomide with R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid may be an effective treatment for relapsed or refractory B-CLL. - Funding Source - FDA OOPD

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of lenalidomide in combination with AT-101 (R-(-)-gossypol acetic acid). (Phase I) II. To assess the overall response rate of lenalidomide in combination with AT-101. (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the overall response rates of lenalidomide in combination with AT-101 at 6 months and 12 months.

II. To evaluate time to progression (TTP) for the combination of lenalidomide + AT-101.

III. To evaluate the safety of this combination in patients with relapsed B-CLL.

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To conduct correlative studies for further understanding of the mechanism of antitumor activity of lenalidomide and lenalidomide + AT-101.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I dose-escalation study of lenalidomide followed by a phase II study.

Patients receive lenalidomide orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Beginning in course 3, patients also receive AT-101 PO twice daily (BID) on days 1-3. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 11 courses (49-56 days for course 12 or last course of treatment) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days and then every 3 months for up to 2 years.

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose

    Maximum tolerated dose of lenalidomide when given in combination with AT-101, defined as the dose level below the lowest dose that induces dose limiting toxicity in at least one-third of patients (at least 2 of a maximum of 6 new patients) (Phase I)

    Measured: Up to day 28 of course 2

  2. Overall Response Rate (Complete Response [CR], CR With Incomplete Marrow Recovery, Clinical CR, Nodular Partial Response [PR], and PR) (Phase II)

    The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated according to the approach of Duffy and Santner.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Incidence of Adverse Events, Graded According to the Grading Scale for Hematologic Adverse Events in CLL Studies (Phase I)

    The number and severity of all adverse events (overall and by dose-level) will be tabulated and summarized in this patient population. The grade 3+ adverse events will also be described and summarized in a similar fashion.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Incidence of Toxicity, Defined as Adverse Events Classified as Possibly, Probably, or Definitely Related to Study Treatment, Graded According to the Grading Scale for Hematologic Adverse Events in CLL Studies or Ordinal Common Toxicity Criteria (Phase I)

    Overall toxicity incidence as well as toxicity profiles by dose level, patient and tumor site will be explored and summarized. Frequency distributions, graphical techniques and other descriptive measures will form the basis of these analyses. Here, we report the number of patients that reported a grade 2 or higher as their worst incidence of toxicity.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  3. Overall Response Rate (Phase II)

    The proportion of responses by 6 months will be estimated by the number of patients who achieve a response by 6 months divided by the total number of evaluable patients. The proportion of responses by 12 months will be estimated in a similar manner. Exact binomial 95% confidence intervals for the true success proportions will be calculated.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  4. Time to Progression (Phase II)

    The distribution of time to progression will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.

    Measured: The time from registration to the earliest date of documentation of disease progression, assessed up to 2 years

  5. Incidence of Adverse Events, Graded According to the Grading Scale for Hematologic Adverse Events in CLL Studies (Phase II)

    The maximum grade for each type of adverse event, regardless of causality, will be recorded and reported for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine adverse event patterns.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after the last day of study treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Lenalidomide, R-(-)-Gossypol Acetic Acid and Laboratory Biomarker Analysis in people with Recurrent Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by Mayo Clinic at 2 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?

The sponsor lists 19 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 16 Jun 2020). 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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (time frame: Up to day 28 of course 2). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 16 Jun 2020.
