Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced B-cell NHL, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), marginal zone lymphoma (MZL), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) (Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia [WM] and chronic lymphocytic leukemia [CLL]/small lymphocytic leukemia [SLL] are excluded).

  • Participants who are refractory or relapsed after at least 2 prior lines of therapy due to progression, intolerance, or physician/participant decision, and for whom no effective standard therapy is available per the investigator's assessment. The sponsor may restrict prior lines of therapy in the expansion phase of the study based on emerging data. The decision may be documented and shared with investigators in a memo before the initiation of the dose expansion phase followed by updating the exclusion criteria in a subsequent amendment, if deemed necessary. Requirements for prior therapy depending on disease type are outlined in the protocol, however all patients must be ineligible for or have already failed hematopoietic stem cell transplant.

Who cannot join

  • Central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma; active brain or leptomeningeal metastases, as indicated by positive cytology from lumbar puncture or computed tomography (CT) scan/magnetic resonance imaging. Exceptions include those participants who have completed definitive therapy, are not on steroids, have a stable neurologic status for at least 2 weeks after completion of the definitive therapy and steroids, and do not have neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other AEs.
  • Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or HIV-related malignancy, hepatitis B surface antigen positive, or known or suspected active hepatitis C infection.
  • History of drug-induced pneumonitis requiring treatment with steroids; history of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, organizing pneumonia, or evidence of active pneumonitis on screening chest CT scan; history of radiation pneumonitis in the radiation field (fibrosis) is permitted.

  • Participants in need of immediate cytoreductive therapy.
  • Prior autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) within 6 months or prior ASCT at any time without full hematopoietic recovery, defined by the entry criteria in the study, before Cycle 1 Day 1 or allogeneic stem cell transplant any time.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Study of TAK-659 in Combination With NKTR-214 in Patients With Advanced Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for TAK-659 when administered in combination with NKTR-214.

Read the detailed description

The drugs that are being tested in this study are TAK-659 and NKTR-214. TAK-659 in combination with NKTR-214 is being tested for participants with advanced B-cell NHL, including DLBCL, FL, MZL, or MCL, after 2 prior lines of therapy. The study will determine the MTD or the RP2D of TAK-659 when administered with NKTR-214.

The study will enroll approximately 40 participants, approximately 18 to 24 participants in a dose escalation phase, and approximately 12 participants will be added after determination of MTD/RP2D in the safety expansion phase. This study consists of 2 phases: a dose escalation phase and a safety expansion phase.

TAK-659 and NKTR-214 doses will be escalated according to a modified 3+3 dose escalation schema. TAK-659 60 milligram (mg) + NKTR-214 0.003 milligram per kilogram (mg/kg) is the starting dose. Participants could also receive 80 mg once daily (QD) TAK-659 during dose escalation and 0.003mg/kg or 0.006mg/kg of NKTR-214. Lower doses (example 40 mg) and/or alternative regimens (including intermittent dosing) or schedules of TAK-659 are permissible following discussion between sponsor and investigators. In dose escalation phase, dose levels will be escalated based on available safety and tolerability data to determine the MTD or RP2D. Dose for safety expansion phase will be based on available safety, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy data.

For participants enrolled in either the dose escalation or safety expansion phases, the maximum duration of treatment will be 12 months unless, in the opinion of the investigator and with the agreement of the sponsor, the participant would derive benefit from continued therapy beyond 12 months. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, and will have an end of treatment visit 30 days after the last dose of TAK-659 or NKTR-214 or before the start of subsequent alternative anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first. Participants will be followed for 90 days after the last dose or subsequent anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first, to permit the detection of any delayed treatment-related adverse events (AEs).

    Measured: Through study completion, approximately 40 months

  8. Duration of Response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the time from first CR or PR to PD or relapse in the response-evaluable population.

    Measured: From first CR or PR to progressive disease (PD) or relapse (through study completion, approximately 40 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TAK-659 and NKTR-214 in people with Lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin, run by Calithera Biosciences, Inc at 6 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 6 inclusion and 16 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 8 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, Canada. 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 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?

MTD of TAK-659 in Combination with NKTR-214 (time frame: 3 weeks after last dose of last participant in dose escalation or up to 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 8 Feb 2023.
