About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose Escalation, Open-Label Study of Venetoclax in Combination With Navitoclax and Chemotherapy in Subjects With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoblastic Lymphoma

What is being measured

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

  1. Cmax of Venetoclax + Navitoclax

    Maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of venetoclax + navitoclax

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 months

  2. AUC of Venetoclax + Navitoclax

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of venetoclax + navitoclax

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 months

  3. Tmax of Venetoclax + Navitoclax

    Time to Cmax (Tmax) of Venetoclax + Navitoclax

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 months

  4. CL/F of Venetoclax + Navitoclax

    Apparent oral clearance (CL/F) of venetoclax + navitoclax

    Measured: Up to approximately 9 months

  5. Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLT)

    A DLT is any Grade 3 or higher non-hematologic adverse event (AE) with exceptions outlined in the protocol. AEs and toxicities that occur beyond the DLT assessment period will also be evaluated by the investigator and AbbVie and may be considered as dose-limiting.

    Measured: Up to approximately 28 days after initial dose of study drug

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the number of days from the date of enrollment to the date of earliest disease progression or death.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

  2. Partial Response (PR) rate

    PR defined as no peripheral blasts or peripheral blood absolute blast count decreased by ≥ 50% from baseline, bone marrow with 5 - 25% blasts and at least a 50% decrease in bone marrow blast percent from baseline, no evidence of extramedullary disease.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

  3. Number of Participant who Proceed to Stem Cell Transplantation or Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) Therapy

    Determine the number of participants who proceed to stem cell transplantation or CAR-T therapy.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

  4. Overall survival (OS)

    OS is defined as the number of days from the date of enrollment to the date of death.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

  5. Objective response rate (ORR)

    The proportion of subjects with objective response rate (complete response [CR] + CR incomplete recovery [CRi] + CR without platelet recovery [CRp]) for ALL subjects and (CR+PR) for LL subjects.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

  6. Complete Response (CR) rate

    CR defined as hematologic recovery (absolute neutrophil count [ANC] greater than or equal to 500/μL; platelet counts greater than or equal to 75,000/μL), evidence of trilineage hematopoiesis in the bone marrow and less than 5% blasts in the bone marrow, absence of circulating blasts, and no evidence of extramedullary disease.

    Measured: Up to 9 months after the last subject has enrolled into the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Navitoclax, Chemotherapy and Venetoclax in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) and Lymphoblastic Lymphoma, run by AbbVie at 15 sites in 2 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 10 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in United States, Australia. 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?

Cmax of Venetoclax + Navitoclax (time frame: Up to approximately 9 months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03181126, 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 14 Oct 2021.
