About this study

Official title: A Prospective Open-label Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Ixazomib and Dexamethasone in Patients With Refractory Autoimmune Cytopenia

Some patients with antibody-mediated autoimmune hematological diseases (warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (wAIHA), cold agglutinin disease (cAIHA) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP)) shows no or only minor and transient response to therapy despite several treatment-lines. Such patients are more likely to have a severe disease, with a higher morbidity and mortality.

Hypothesis Effective depletion of autoreactive plasma cells might be the key for a curative approach of these diseases. Therefore, there is a rationale for using proteasome inhibitors (PIs) in these refractory patients.

Read more

The rationale is that non-tumoral autoreactive plasma cells are rapidly targeted by proteasome inhibitors. It led us to propose a short course of dexamethasone and ixazomib (5 cycles), to evaluate the safety/efficacy of this innovative strategy of treatment.

Method Prospective interventional uncontrolled single arm open study evaluating the rate of patients achieving 5 cycles of ixazomib and dexamethasone without severe toxicity and response on therapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of patients achieving a response (CR+R) with 5 cycles without severe toxicity (grade III/IV)

    Criteria of response:

    ITP: A complete response is defined by a platelet count > 100 x 109/L maintained in the absence of any other ITP directed therapies. A responder to treatment is defined by a patient with a maintained platelet count at > 30 x109/L (Rodeghiero et al Blood 2008) and a minimum twofold increase from initial platelet levels in the absence of bleeding and/or use of ITP directed therapies.

    AIHA: Complete response (CR) is defined as normalization in haemoglobin concentration (Hb≥12 g/dL) without any ongoing immunosuppressive treatment and without any biochemical signs of hemolytic activity. Response (R) is defined as a haemoglobin concentration ≥10 g/dL and requiring continued low-dose prednisolone (<20 mg/day prednisone) or at least 2 g/dL increase in Hb, and no transfusion requirement

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Number of patients responding to treatment (CR+R)

    CR=complete response, R= Response

    Measured: At Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, Day 112, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months.

  2. Number of patients experiencing a A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) along the course of the study.

    A treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) is defined as an adverse event with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug (AE start date ≥ first dose date) and within 30 days after receiving the last dose of study drug. TEAE will be scaled according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4. A severe toxicity severe toxicity is defined as ≥ grade III.

    For ITP patients, thrombocytopenia will not be included in TEAE if it is due to disease activity. But severe bleeding manifestations as unexpected severe hemorrhagic events defined as intracranial hemorrhage, gastrointestinal or visceral bleeding with a decrease of hemoglobin by more than 2 g/dl should be reported as SAE.

    For AIHA patients, anemia will not be included in TEAE if it is due to disease activity. But, severe, unexpected anemia (less thant 6 g/dl) in patients who have previously achieved a response should be reported as SAE.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  3. Gammablobulin level (and isotype) along the study

    Measured: Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, Day 112, 9 months and 12 months

  4. Number of infectious events along the study

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  5. Number of bleeding manifestations according to the French bleeding score for ITP patients

    Measured: At Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, Day 112, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months.

  6. Protective antibody titers (measles, mumps, tetanus) (Ancillary Study)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 84, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months

  7. Number of pathogenic circulating plasmablasts (Ancillary study)

    Measured: Day 0, 28, 56, 84, 112 months 6, 9, 12 months

  8. Number and program of bone marrow pathogenic plasma cells for patients with refractory disease (Ancillary study).

    Measured: Day 0, 6 months

  9. Anti-platelets/red blood cells antibodies (Ancillary study)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 84, 6 months

  10. Level of serum cytokines (Ancillary study)

    Measured: Day 0, Day 28, Day 56, Day 84, Day 112 and 6 months , 9 months , 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Ninlaro in people with Immune Thrombocytopenia and Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 15 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 28 Oct 2019. 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 France. 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?

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?

Rate of patients achieving a response (CR+R) with 5 cycles without severe toxicity (grade III/IV) (time frame: 6 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 28 Oct 2019.
