About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial Investigating the Benefit of Immunotherapy With Durvalumab After Autologous Transplant in High-risk Diffuse-large B-cell Lymphomas (the IDA-D Trial)

The trial assess the progression-free survival (PFS) two years after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in high-risk DLBCL patients receiving PD-L1 inhibition with durvalumab.

Read the detailed description

Background and Rationale:

Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is standard of care in the treatment concept of adult patients with multiple myeloma (MM), malignant lymphomas (including diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL), mantle cell lymphomas, follicular lymphomas or T-cell lymphomas), acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and relapsing germ cell tumors. The number of patients treated with ASCT is steadily increasing, e.g. by +17% alone in Switzerland in the year 2015, to a total of 464 ASCT per year in Switzerland. The Inselspital (University Hospital) in Berne is the leading hospital in Switzerland for ASCT, with 145 ASCT in the year 2015. Among these 145 transplants, 31 patients had DLBCL.

The goal of treatment in DLBCL is definite cure. In DLBCL, the addition of anti-CD20 treatment to standard CHOP (Cyclophosphamid, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone) chemotherapy has improved the cure rate after R-CHOP (Rituximab-CHOP) first-line treatment. Nevertheless, the disease is relapsing in roughly 20% of these patients. At relapse, patients are treated with salvage chemotherapy such as the R-DHAP (Rituximab, Dexamethasone, Cisplatin,Cytarabine), or R-ICE (Rituximab,Ifosfamide, Carboplatin, Etoposide) regimens, followed by BEAM (BCNU, Etoposide, Cytarabine, Melphalan) or BeEAM (Bendamustin, Etoposide, Cyclophosphamide, Melphalan) high-dose chemotherapy supported with ASCT. The overall survival rate at the Inselspital Bern and elsewhere at two years for DLBCL patients after ASCT is 60%, and, therefore, improving outcome of such patients remains an unmet clinical need. This is particularly true in high-risk DLBCL patients, such as in DLBCL patients relapsing within 12 months after first-line treatment as well as in DLBCL patients not achieving a (first or second) complete remission (CR) after induction treatment before ASCT. PFS at two years for such high-risk lymphoma patients is 50% at the investigators' institution.

Immunotherapy (such as with PD-L1 inhibition) after ASCT is a promising approach to potentially improve results after ASCT. A first study applying PD-1 inhibition with three applications (every 42 days) of Pidilizumab started between days 30 and 90 after ASCT showed a promising progression-free survival rate of 72% in relapsing DLBCL patients at 16 months after the first Pidilizumab application. These data suggest that immunotherapy after ASCT has the potential to a meaningful improvement of survival rates in DLBCL patients after ASCT.

Objective:

The primary objective of this Trial is to show a progression-free survival of 70% two years after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in high-risk DLBCL patients receiving PD-L1 inhibition with durvalumab.

Study Duration:

The 46 patients needed in this study will be included within 24 months. Additional 24 months will be needed until the last study patient reaches PFS at 2 years. Accordingly, the total study duration is expected to be 48 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival

    Number of Patients with Progression-free survival (PFS) two years after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in high-risk DLBCL patients receiving PD-L1 inhibition with durvalumab.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Response Rate

    The Response (Tumor measurement) to durvalumab treatment will be assessed by PET-CT 24 months after ASCT

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Adverse Events

    Number of Patients experiencing Toxicity (Adverse Events)

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Hematologic engraftment

    Number of days until hematological engraftment. Hematologic engraftment after high-dose chemotherapy induced myelosuppression is defined as the first day of neutrophils rising again above 0.5 G/l, and of platelets rising again above 20 G/L in the absence of platelet transfusions in the previous 3 days. Hematological values will be performed every 4 weeks

    Measured: 24 months

  4. The quality of life

    The EORTC Q30 questionnaire will be given to patients before the first durvalumab administration, and after 3, 12 and 24 months after ASCT to assess quality of life.

    Measured: 24 months

  5. Overall Survival

    Number of Patient alive at 24 months

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Durvalumab in people with Lymphoma, Large B-Cell, Diffuse, run by Insel Gruppe AG, University Hospital Bern.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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: 24 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 9 Apr 2018.
