About this study

Official title: Phase II Study of the Hyper-CVAD Regimen in Sequential Combination With Inotuzumab Ozogamicin as Frontline Therapy for Adults With B-Cell Lineage Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia

This phase II trial studies how well combination chemotherapy and inotuzumab ozogamicin work in treating patients with B acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, dexamethasone, methotrexate and cytarabine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as inotuzumab ozogamicin, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving combination chemotherapy and inotuzumab ozogamicin may work better at treating B acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the sequential combination of hyper-CVAD (hyperfractionated cyclophosphamide, vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, dexamethasone, methotrexate and cytarabine) + inotuzumab ozogamicin in patients with newly diagnosed B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in terms of event-free survival (EFS).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate other efficacy endpoints such as overall survival, overall response rate, minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity rate as well as the safety of this combination.

OUTLINE:

INTENSIVE CHEMOTHERAPY: Patients receive cyclophosphamide intravenously (IV) over 3 hours every 12 hours on days 1-3 and dexamethasone IV or orally (PO) on days 1-4 and 11-14 of courses 1 and 3. Patients may receive ofatumumab IV over 2 hours on days 1, 2 and 11 of course 1, days 1 and 8 of courses 2 and 4, and days 1 and 11 of course 3, or rituximab IV over 2 hours on days 1 and 11 of courses 1 and 3, and days 1 and 8 of courses 2 and 4. Patients also receive methotrexate intrathecally (IT) on day 2 of courses 1 and 3, IV over 24 hours on day 1 and IT on day 8 of courses 2 and 4, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over 24 hours on day 4 of courses 1 and 3, vincristine sulfate IV over 1 hour on days 4 and 11 of courses 1 and 3, cytarabine IT on day 7 of courses 1 and 3, and IV over 2 hours every 12 hours on days 2 and 3, and IT on day 5 of courses 2 and 4, leucovorin calcium IV 4 times a days on day 2 of courses 2 and 4. Patients then receive inotuzumab ozogamicin IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 8 of courses 5-8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

MAINTENANCE THERAPY: Patients receive mercaptopurine PO thrice a day, methotrexate PO once a week, vincristine sulfate IV over 1 hour on day 1 and prednisone PO on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and every 6 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Event-Free Survival

    Event-free survival defined as the time interval from date of treatment start until the date of death, disease progression or relapse.

    Measured: Start of treatment up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)

  1. Overall Survival

    Time from date of treatment start until date of death due to any cause or last Follow-up.

    Measured: Start of treatment up to 2 years

  2. Participants to Achieve Complete Remission (CR):

    Complete Remission (CR) is defined as - Normalization of the peripheral blood and bone marrow blasts </= 5% in normocellular or hypercellular marrow, granulocyte count of 1x10^9/L or above and platelets >/= 100X10^9/L and complete resolution of all sites of extramedullary disease.

    Measured: Start of treatment up to 2 years

  3. Number of Participants With Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) Negativity

    MRD levels continuously assessed during induction and consolidation therapy by 6-color multiparameter flow. MRD negativity defined by a value of at least 10-4 and confirmed on a second bone marrow aspiration/biopsy performed after a subsequent cycle.

    Measured: Start of treatment up to 2 years

  4. Number of Participants With Adverse Events

    For the purpose of toxicity monitoring, toxicities are defined as any treatment -related grade 3 or 4 non-hematologic AEs occurred any time during the trial.NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03 utilized for adverse event reporting.

    Measured: Start of treatment up to 30 days after last dose received.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Cyclophosphamide, Cytarabine and Dexamethasone in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Remission and B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 9 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2026. 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 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 13 Apr 2021). 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?

Event-Free Survival (time frame: Start of treatment up to 2 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 NCT03488225.

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 Jul 2026.
