About this study

Official title: Rapid Infusion of Ofatumumab in Patients With Previously Treated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, a Phase II Trial

This is a Phase II, single-arm study of ofatumumab investigating the safety of an accelerated infusion schedule of ofatumumab in patients who have received at least one prior therapy for CLL. The primary endpoint is to evaluate the number of subjects able to complete infusion number 3 (2000 mg) within 15 minutes of the planned time.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to develop an accelerated infusion regimen that allows ofatumumab to be delivered in a safe manner while minimizing the time required administering the treatment. We hypothesize there will be fewer infusion-related reactions using the proposed dose-dense approach the first week before accelerating the rate of infusion.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • OfatumumabDrug

    Also called Arzerra

    The first dose of ofatumumab administered on Day 1 will be 300 mg to minimize infusion reactions. If the initial 300 mg dose of ofatumumab is well-tolerated, without occurrence of any infusion-associated AEs of >= grade 3, on Day 3 ofatumumab will increase to 1000 mg IV. If the Day 3 dose was well-tolerated (i.e., no infusion-associated AE >= grade 3), on Day 8 the ofatumumab dose will escalate to 2000 mg IV. To achieve the primary endpoint for this study, 20% of the 2000 mg ofatumumab dose only will be administered over the first 30 minutes and if tolerated the remaining 80% of the dose will be infused over the remaining 1.5/hours of each treatment. Ofatumumab doses, weeks 3-8, will remain at 2000 mg IV with no further dose escalations. If the Day 8 (Week 2) dose is tolerated all subsequent doses may be infused in the same manner.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percent of Patients Who Complete an Accelerated Infusion Regimen Within 15 Minutes of the Planned 2-hour Treatment.

    Defined as percent of patients who are able to complete the Day 8 (2000 mg IV Ofatumumab) infusion within 15 minutes of the planned 2-hour treatment goal.

    Measured: At Week 2, Day 1 of therapy

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Duration of Time to Complete Individual Infusions of an Accelerated Infusion Schedule of Ofatumumab

    Defined as the actual mean infusion times, in minutes, for patients to complete a schedule of 3 infusions with the goal of completing Infusion #3 within 15 minutes of the planned 2-hour treatment time.

    Measured: Week 1 - Days 1 and 3, and Week 2, Day 1

  2. Overall Response Rate (ORR)

    Defined as the percent of patients having a complete or partial response (CR or PR) assessed by International Workshop on CLL Working Group (IWCLLWG) Diagnostic Criteria (Hallek et al., 2008). CR = (a) Peripheral blood lymphocytes below 4000/µl; (b) Absence of significant lymphadenopathy by physical exam or radiographic scans (c) No hepatomegaly or splenomegaly; (d) Absence of constitutional symptoms; and blood counts above specified values. PR = (a) Decreased blood lymphocytes by 50% or more from the value prior to therapy;(b) No increase in any lymph node, and no new enlarged lymph node. Progressive Disease (PD) = An increase in 50% or more in greatest determined diameter of any previous site. Stable Disease (SD) = No evidence of CR or PR and no evidence of progressive disease.

    Measured: At weeks 12 and 28

  3. Progression Free Survival

    Defined as the time from first treatment until objective tumor progression or death from any cause.

    Measured: For 28 weeks during therapy then every 3 months for 2 years and every 6 months thereafter.

  4. Overall Survival

    Defined as the time from first treatment until death from any cause.

    Measured: For 28 weeks during therapy then every 3 months for 2 years and every 6 months thereafter.

  5. Number of Patients With Infusion-related Reactions Assessed According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) v. 4.0.

    Patients who received at least 1 dose of protocol treatment either Infusion #1 (300 mg), Infusion #2 (1000 mg) or Infusion #3 (2000 mg) are included in the assessment.

    Measured: up to 28 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ofatumumab in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by SCRI Development Innovations, LLC at 6 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 15 inclusion and 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 6 Jun 2017). 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?

Percent of Patients Who Complete an Accelerated Infusion Regimen Within 15 Minutes of the Planned 2-hour Treatment. (time frame: At Week 2, Day 1 of therapy). 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 NCT01848145, 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 Jun 2017.
