About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Open-Label Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Idelalisib in Combination With Obinutuzumab Compared to Chlorambucil in Combination With Obinutuzumab for Previously Untreated Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of idelalisib with obinutuzumab versus the combination of chlorambucil and obinutuzumab on progression-free survival (PFS) in participants with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

An increased rate of deaths and serious adverse events (SAEs) among participants with front-line CLL and early-line indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL) treated with idelalisib in combination with standard therapies was observed by the independent data monitoring committee (DMC) during regular review of 3 Gilead Phase 3 studies. Gilead reviewed the unblinded data and terminated those studies in agreement with the DMC recommendation and in consultation with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). All front-line studies of idelalisib, including this study, were also terminated.

Being tested
Idelalisib, Chlorambucil, Obinutuzumab
Medical subject headings
Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic, B-Cell

What participants receive

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

  • IdelalisibDrug

    Also called GS-1101, CAL-101, Zydelig®

    150 mg tablet administered orally twice daily

  • ChlorambucilDrug

    2 mg tablets administered at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg orally every other week for a total of 12 doses

  • ObinutuzumabDrug

    1000 mg/40 mL single-use vials administered intravenously for a total of 8 doses over 21 weeks

Safety Run-In: Idelalisib+obinutuzumabExperimentalParticipants will receive idelalisib for 96 weeks and obinutuzumab over 21 weeks. Following 4 weeks of treatment, safety data will be reviewed by an independent data monitoring committee (DMC). If acceptable tolerability is observed, the randomized portion of the study will begin.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-Free Survival

    Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the interval from randomization to the first documentation of definitive disease progression or death from any cause. Definitive disease progression is CLL progression based on standard criteria, excluding lymphocytosis alone. PFS was to be assessed by an independent review committee (IRC).

    Measured: Up to 11 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall Response Rate

    Overall response rate (ORR) is defined as the proportion of participants who achieve a confirmed complete or partial response. ORR was to be assessed by an IRC.

    Measured: Up to 11 months

  2. Nodal Response Rate

    Nodal response rate is defined as the proportion of participants who achieve a 50% decrease from baseline in the sum of the products of the greatest perpendicular diameters of index lesions. Nodal response rate was to be assessed by an IRC.

    Measured: Up to 11 months

  3. Complete Response Rate

    Complete response rate is defined as the proportion of participants who achieve a confirmed complete response. Complete response rate was to be assessed by an IRC.

    Measured: Up to 11 months

  4. Overall Survival

    Overall survival is defined as the interval from randomization to death from any cause. Overall survival was to be assessed by an IRC.

    Measured: Up to 11 months

  5. Minimal Residual Disease Negativity Rate at Week 36

    Minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate is defined as the proportion of participants with MRD < 10^-4 assessed by flow cytometry in bone marrow at Week 36 after therapy initiation. For participants receiving the final dose of obinutuzumab after the original scheduled date, the MRD assessment was performed no less than 12 weeks after the last dose of obinutuzumab. MRD negativity rate was to be assessed by an IRC.

    Measured: Up to 11 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Idelalisib, Chlorambucil and Obinutuzumab in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by Gilead Sciences at 18 sites in 8 countries.

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 8 inclusion and 14 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 19 Nov 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in United States, Poland, France, Australia, Belgium and 3 more countries. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 28 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?

Progression-Free Survival (time frame: Up to 11 months). 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 19 Nov 2018.
