  • Massive nodes (i.e. > 10 cm in longest diameter) or progressive or symptomatic lymphadenopathy.
  • Progressive lymphocytosis with an increase of > 50% over a 2-month period, or lymphocyte doubling time (LDT) of less than 6 months.
  • A minimum of any one of the following disease-related symptoms: unintentional weight loss ≥ 10% within the previous 6 months, significant fatigue (i.e., ECOG PS 2; cannot work or unable to perform usual activities), fevers of greater than 38.0° C or 100.5F for 2 or more weeks without other evidence of infection, or night sweats for more than 1 month without evidence of infection
  • Physically fit patients defined as CIRS < 6 (CIRS Scale, Appendix E).
  • Must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status score of ≤2.
  • All sexually active subjects with the capacity to reproduce (male and female) must use high-efficacy contraceptive methods during the course of the study. These restrictions apply for 12 months after the last dose of ofatumumab or 3 months after the last dose of ibrutinib, whichever happens later. High-efficacy contraceptive methods include:
  • Total abstinence when consistent with the subject's typical and preferred lifestyle (periodic abstinence [e.g. calendar methods, ovulation, symptothermal and post-ovulation methods] and the withdrawal method are not acceptable contraceptive methods).
  • Female sterilisation defined as surgical hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation at least six weeks prior to the study treatment (a simple oophorectomy does not meet the definition of female sterilisation).
  • Male sterilisation (at least six months before screening). A man who has undergone a vasectomy must be the only partner who is a study subject.
  • Combination of two of the following methods (a+b or a+c or b+c):
  • Use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal contraceptives, or other hormonal contraceptive methods that have a comparable efficacy (failure rate < 1%), for example, hormonal vaginal ring or transdermal hormonal contraceptive. If an oral contraceptive is used, women must use the same pill for a minimum of three months before taking the study treatment.
  • Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or an intrauterine system (IUS).
  • Barrier contraceptive methods: condom or cervical cap (cervical/vault diaphragm or cap) with foam/gel/film/spermicidal cream/vaginal suppository.
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening. Females of child bearing potential are defined as sexually mature women without prior hysterectomy or who have had any evidence of menses in the past 12 months. However, women who have been amenorrheic for 12 or more months are still considered to be of childbearing potential if the amenorrhea is possibly due to other causes, including prior chemotherapy, anti-estrogens, or ovarian suppression

Who cannot join

  • Prior treatment for CLL or SLL.
  • Any serious medical condition, laboratory abnormality, or psychiatric illness that would prevent the patient from signing the informed consent form.
  • Systemic infection that has not resolved prior to initiating study treatment in spite of adequate anti-infective therapy.
  • Pregnant or lactating females.
  • Participation in any clinical study or having taken any investigational therapy within 28 days prior to initiating study therapy.
  • Central nervous system (CNS) involvement as documented by spinal fluid cytology or imaging.

About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Non-randomized, Open Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Security of Ibrutinib Followed by Ibrutinib Consolidation in Combination With Ofatumumab in Previously Untreated Patients With Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)

Based on the promising results obtained with ibrutinib as single agent, the results obtained with ibrutinib in combination with ofatumumab in a previous phase I/IIb study (Jaglowski 2015), and since data from in vitro studies do not support a synergistic effect of the combination of ibrutinib and anti-CD20 mAbs, we propose a chemotherapy-free combined strategy based on ibrutinib monotherapy as front line treatment for patients with CLL, with the addition of a consolidation phase with ofatumumab in patients not attaining CR under ibrutinib in order to improve the quality of their response. Since median time to CR with ibrutinib was nearly 12 months, patients will be evaluated at this time point, and those patients not in CR will add consolidated treatment with Ofatumumab. Thus, this multi-center, non-randomized phase 2 study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib alone or in combination with Ofatumumab in patients no attaining CR under ibrutinib as front-line therapy for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

Multicenter, non- randomized, open-label, double agent, phase II study of the Spanish Group of CLL (GELLC).

Patients with untreated CLL/SLL. Ibrutinib will be administered orally 420 mg (3 x 140 mg capsules) once daily on a continuous schedule on an outpatient basis until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After 12 cycles of ibrutinib, patients that do not achieve a complete response (CR) will be treated with the combination of ibrutinib and ofatumumab. Patients in CR after 12 cycles of ibrutinib will continue with ibrutinib alone.

Ofatumumab will be administered by IV infusion, 300mg on Day 1 and 1,000 mg on Day 8 of cycle 13, followed by 5 monthly infusions of 1,000 mg (Day 1 of subsequent 28-day cycles for cycles C14, C15, C16, C17, and C18).

A treatment cycle will be defined as lasting 28 days. Patients will be treated with ibrutinib, within the study frame, until progression, unacceptable toxicity or cycle C42 of treatment).

All patients still on study treatment at the time of cycle C42, or if the study is stopped early, will be transitioned to prescribed ibrutinib.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ibrutinib 140 MG Oral Capsule [Imbruvica] in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by PETHEMA Foundation at 20 sites in Spain.

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 20 inclusion and 21 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Efficacy in terms of response rate (time frame: 18 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 16 Sep 2022.
