  • All participants must be actively receiving ibrutinib monotherapy at the time of study entry. Participants with a gap in treatment or who received anti-cancer treatments other than ibrutinib immediately prior to study entry are not eligible.
  • Participants must have been on a stable dose of ibrutinib monotherapy for a minimum of 3 weeks prior to cycle 1 day 1.
  • Age ≥ 18 years.
  • ECOG performance status ≤ 1 (see Appendix A)
  • Participants must have measurable disease:
  • Participants with WM: presence of serum immunoglobulin M (IgM) with a minimum IgM level of > 2 × institutional upper limit of normal.
  • Participants with CLL:
  • Palpable or CT measurable lymphadenopathy ≥ 1.5 cm, AND/OR
  • Lymphocytosis ≥ 5,000/μL, AND/OR
  • Bone marrow involvement of ≥ 30%
  • Participants with MCL or MZL: at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for non-nodal lesions and short axis for nodal lesions) as ≥ 20 mm (≥ 2 cm) with conventional imaging or > 10 mm with spiral CT scan. If the patient has been previously irradiated, there must be evidence of progression in the lesion since the radiation.
  • Participants must have adequate organ and marrow function as defined below:
  • Absolute Neutrophil Count ≥ 750/mcL
  • Platelet Count ≥ 50,000/mcL
  • Total Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × institutional upper limit of normal (ULN), OR

  • The effects of ibrutinib or LY3214996 on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because anti-cancer agents are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of study participation, and 4 months after completion of ibrutinib or LY3214996 administration.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
  • Ability to swallow and retain oral medication.

Who cannot join

  • Participants who have had major surgery within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • Participants who have previously received treatment with an ERK inhibitor, including but not limited to previous treatment with LY3214996.
  • Participants with known CNS disease involvement should be excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to LY3214996 or ibrutinib.
  • Individuals with a history of a different malignancy are ineligible with the following exceptions: individuals who have been treated and are disease-free for a minimum of 3 years prior to study enrollment, or individuals who are deemed by the treating investigator to be at low risk for disease recurrence. Additionally, individuals with the following cancers are eligible if diagnosed within the past 3 years: basal or squamous cell carcinomas of the skin, breast or cervical carcinomas in situ, and low risk prostate cancer that does not require treatment as judged by the treating investigator.
  • Participants who are known at the time of trial enrollment to require concomitant therapy with strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors or inducers. The use of strong or moderate CYP3A inhibitors or inducers is prohibited for the duration of trial treatment.
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Participants who are known at the time of trial enrollment to require concomitant therapy with sensitive substrates of CYP3A4 or drugs cleared by CYP3A4 that have a narrow therapeutic range. The use of these drugs is prohibited for the duration of trial treatment.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to: ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because LY3214996 and ibrutinib are agents with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with LY3214996 or ibrutinib, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with LY3214996 or ibrutinib. A negative serum pregnancy test is required for women of childbearing potential prior to the first dose of study medication.
  • Participants who are known to be seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis B or C.
  • Participants with a history or findings of central or branch retinal artery or venous occlusion with significant vision less, or other retinal diseases causing visual impairment

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study Targeting ERK 1/2 Signaling in Ibrutinib Resistant B-cell Malignancies

This research is studying the safety of combining ibrutinib with the study drug LY3214996 for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), or marginal zone lymphoma (MZL).

Read the detailed description

This research study is a Phase I clinical trial, which tests the safety of an investigational combination of drugs and also tries to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is being studied.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved LY3214996 as a treatment for any disease.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved ibrutinib as a treatment option for this disease.

LY3214996 is an extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) inhibitor that is being developed as a treatment for patients with advanced cancer. ERK inhibitors stop the signal that a cancer cell receives telling it to grow. In this research study, the investigators are testing to see if LY3214996 is safe when combined with ibrutinib in patients with specific gene mutations. Making treatment decisions based on genetic testing is investigational, and the FDA has not approved this genetic testing. Several doses of LY3214996 will be explored in this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ibrutinib and LY3214996 in people with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia and Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia, run by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

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 29 inclusion and 11 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 5 Feb 2020. 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 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?

Dose Limiting Toxicity (time frame: 42 days). 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 5 Feb 2020.
