About this study

Official title: Phase 1B Trial: Evaluation of the Safety of Adding Brentuximab Vedotin to Low-Dose Total Skin Electron Beam (TSEB) for Treatment of Patients With Mycosis Fungoides and Sézary Syndrome

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the cutaneous toxicity and treatment response associated with administering concurrent TSEB and brentuximab vedotin in patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary Syndrome.

Read the detailed description

This study is a 2-cohort, open-label, phase 1B trial to evaluate the cutaneous toxicity, overall toxicity, and treatment response associated with administering concurrent low-dose TSEB and brentuximab vedotin in patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary Syndrome. Duration of complete skin response, DOCB, and tumor response in lymph nodes and blood will also be evaluated. Additionally, skin-related QOL and neurotoxicity will be assessed.

Patients will be enrolled in 1 of 2 cohorts based on disease stage.

Cohort A will include patients with earlier stage disease (selected Stage IB in patients who have had one previous course of therapy) and Stages IIA through IIIA [if N0-1]).

Cohort B will include patients with more advanced disease (Stage IIA through IIIA [if N2-3], Stage IIIB, Stage IVA, and transformed CTCL) who are candidates for low-dose TSEB and/or systemic therapy.

A standard dose of brentuximab vedotin will be administered to all patients by intravenous infusion 3 weeks prior to initiation of low-dose TSEB and then every 3 weeks for a total of 3 cycles. Cohort A patients will complete brentuximab vedotin after 3 cycles; patients in Cohort B will continue brentuximab vedotin until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity, whichever occurs first. In the absence of progression or unacceptable toxicity, the patient may receive brentuximab vedotin for up to 2 years as a study participant. A total of 12 Gy TSEB (ie, low-dose TSEB) will be administered to both cohorts per standard protocol in 6 fractions (2 fractions per week) beginning 3 weeks after the first dose of brentuximab vedotin.

The Modified Severity Weighted Assessment Tool (mSWAT) (16), completed by the investigator, will be used to determine skin involvement at baseline and skin response to treatment beginning after administration of the 3 doses of brentuximab vedotin and low-dose TSEB. Skindex-16, a patient-completed form that measures symptoms and perceptions of toxicity in patients with skin disease will be used to assess skin-related QOL. Additionally, Form NTX will be completed by patients in Cohort A to assess symptoms of CIPN which is a side effect of brentuximab vedotin.

The sample size for this study will be a maximum of 15 patients for a total of 12 evaluable patients with no more than 6 patients in Cohort B. However, if the number of patients with severe toxicity exceeds the established acceptable incidence, accrual will end before reaching the sample size goal of 12 evaluable patients.

What participants receive

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

  • TSEB TherapyRadiation

    Also called total skin electron beam, TSEB

    TSEB is a type of radiation treatment in which the skin over the whole body is treated with electron radiation beams. All participants will receive the same standard TSEB dose and treatment schedule. During TSEB, patients are treated in a standing position on a rotating platform.

  • Brentuximab vedotinDrug

    Also called Adcetris

    An antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that targets CD30. A standard dose of brentuximab vedotin will be administered to all patients by intravenous infusion 3 weeks prior to initiation of TSEB and then every 3 weeks for 3 cycles.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cutaneous toxicity of combining TSEB and brentuximab vedotin in patients with MF or SS (Cohorts A and B).

    Selected cutaneous adverse events (AEs) that occurred during treatment or during the 3 months following initiation of study treatment and that are characterized and graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0 (NCI CTCAE v4.0) including ≥ grade 3 AEs and selected grade 2 AEs

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Number of patients who achieved Complete Response (CR) and Partial Response(PR)

    Number of patients who have achieved cutaneous CR to treatment defined as 100% clearance of skin lesions or cutaneous partial response (PR) defined as 50%-99% clearance of skin disease from baseline without new tumors in patients with T1-, T2-, or T4-only skin disease.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Duration of complete skin response (Cohorts A and B)

    Duration of skin response defined as the time from first determination of CR until relapse in the skin based on mSWAT assessment.

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Tumor response in lymph nodes (Cohort B)

    Tumor response in lymph nodes for patients with N2 or N3 disease at baseline.

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Tumor response in blood (Cohort B)

    Tumor response in blood for patients with B1 or B2 disease at baseline.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Overall Toxicity (Cohorts A and B)

    AEs reported using criteria in the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0 (CTCAE v4.0) and AEs defined in the protocol.

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Skin-related Quality of Life (QOL) (Cohorts A and B)

    Patient responses to questions on Skindex-16 (standardized assessment measures for patients with skin disease) that will be administered at baseline and at 2, 4, 10, and 16 weeks following completion of TSEB

    Measured: 2 years

  6. Patient-reported chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) (Cohort A)

    Patient responses to questions on Form NTX (standardized patient-completed assessment tool to evaluate CIPN) that will be administered at baseline and at 2, 4, 10, and 16 weeks following completion of TSEB.

    Measured: 2 years

  7. Duration of clinical benefit (DOCB)

    DOCB defined as the time from initial response until any total skin-equivalent treatment (eg, topical treatment to > 50% of body surface, phototherapy, second TSEB treatment) or systemic therapy is initiated, or until disease progression.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TSEB Therapy and Brentuximab vedotin in people with Mycosis Fungoides and Sézary Syndrome, run by Virginia Commonwealth University at 1 site 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 31 inclusion and 32 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 30 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 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.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Cutaneous toxicity of combining TSEB and brentuximab vedotin in patients with MF or SS (Cohorts A and B). (time frame: 6 months). 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 30 Aug 2019.
