About this study

Official title: An Open Label Phase II Study of Tipifarnib in Subjects With Relapsed or Refractory Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma

Phase II study designed to investigate antitumor activity in terms of objective response rate (ORR) of tipifarnib subjects with advanced Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma (PTCL). Tipifarnib will be administered orally until disease progression.

Read the detailed description

This Phase II study will investigate the antitumor activity in terms of ORR of tipifarnib in subjects with relapsed or refractory PTCL. The first 18 subjects may be of the following PTCL sub-types: PTCL not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS), angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), ALK-positive and negative anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma, enteropathy-associate T-cell lymphoma (EATL), extranodal natural killer (NK) T-cell lymphoma, nasal type and subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma. The AITL expansion cohort (N=32) will enroll only subjects with AITL. An additional cohort of patients (N=12) expressing the wild type CXCL12 3' UTR will be enrolled in order to explore the benefits of tipifarnib treatment observed in patients having an absence of this gene variation or single nucleotide variation (SNV).

Tumor response assessments will be conducted according to Lugano Classification and/or mSWAT criteria.

Tumor assessments will be performed approximately every 8 weeks (cycles 2-6) and at least once approximately every 12 weeks thereafter (Cycles 9, 12, 15, etc.), and will continue until disease progression. Subjects experiencing a complete response may be considered for bone marrow transplantation. Upon disease progression, all subjects will be followed for survival and the use of subsequent therapy. All subjects will be followed for safety during treatment and up to approximately 30 days after treatment discontinuation or until before the initiation of another anti-cancer therapy. Additional follow up may be implemented until the subject recovers from any emergent treatment related toxicity or the adverse event is considered irreversible by the investigator.

What is being measured

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

  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    The ORR (complete response [CR] or partial response [PRs]) of tipifarnib was based on response assessments according to the Lugano Classification. Two-sided 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were based on either Wilson approximation (N > 4) or Clopper-Pearson method (N ≤ 4).

    CR: PET-CT-based response, score of 1-3 on five-point scale (5PS) for lymph nodes and extralymphatic sites, no evidence of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid disease in marrow. CT-based response, target nodes and masses regress to 1.5 cm in longest transverse diameter, no extralymphatic sites of disease, normal bone marrow morphology.

    PR: PET-CT-based response, score of 4-5 on 5PS with reduced uptake compared to baseline for lymph nodes and extralymphatic sites, residual uptake reduced compared to baseline in the bone marrow. CT-based response, ≥ 50% decrease in sum of the product of perpendicular diameters of up to 6 target measurable nodes and extranodal sites, spleen regressed by > 50% in length beyond normal.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Progression-free Survival (PFS)

    PFS was defined as the time (in months) from first dose (Cycle 1 Day 1) to either first observation of progressive disease (PD) or occurrence of death due to any cause within 126 days (approximately 2 time-intervals for tumor assessments) of either first administration of tipifarnib or the last tumor assessment. Observation of PD could have been by either documented radiographic progression (i.e., scan results) or documentation of symptomatic or clinical progression agreed upon and documented by investigators. In subjects without a progression date or with a death date more than 126 days after the first administration of study drugs or the last tumor assessment, the PFS time was censored on the date of last tumor assessment or date of first administration of study tipifarnib. The duration of the PFS was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method. 95% CIs were calculated using Hall-Wellner Method.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  2. Duration of Response (DOR)

    DOR was defined as the time (in months) from the start date of the objective response to the first date of either documented PD or death. No data imputations were conducted for missing data. In the event of a maintained response, the DOR was censored at the last evaluable non-PD assessment. The DOR was analyzed using the KM method. 95% CIs were calculated using Hall-Wellner Method.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

  3. Number of Subjects That Experienced One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a subject or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product, which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. TEAEs were defined as AEs that started on or after the first dose of study drug and within 30 days of the last administration of study drug or immediately before the initiation of any other anticancer therapy. The Investigator was required to grade the severity/intensity of each AE according to NCI-CTCAE version 4.03. If a severity/intensity of Grade 4 (life-threatening) or 5 (death) was applied to an AE, then the Investigator also reported the event as a serious AE.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years

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 24 inclusion and 22 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 26 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Spain, United States, South Korea. 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 26 Jun 2024). 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?

Objective Response Rate (ORR) (time frame: Up to approximately 3 years). 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 NCT02464228, 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 26 Jun 2024.
