About this study

Official title: Alpha/Beta T-cell and B-cell Depleted Allogeneic Transplantation (IDE 13641) Followed by Blinatumomab Therapy for High-Risk B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Pilot Study

This trial will assess the feasibility of alpha/beta T-cell and B-cell depleted allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) followed by blinatumomab therapy for high-risk B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) as a means of reducing rates of subsequent relapse and improving survival, while also minimizing treatment-related morbidity/ mortality and late effects. The conditioning regimens will be dependent on the patient's minimal residual disease (MRD) status prior to HCT using high throughput sequencing.

Read the detailed description

This trial evaluates the ability of a biologically active therapy in blinatumomab, an anti-CD19/CD3 bispecific T-cell engager, to further reduce the risk of leukemia relapse following HCT to improve post-HCT outcomes. The investigators will also utilize an alpha-beta T-cell and B-cell depleted graft to reduce the risk of GVHD along with a reduced intensity conditioning regimen without the use of TBI in patients who are minimal residual disease (MRD) negative using high throughput sequencing (HTS) prior to HCT. For those patients who remain HTS-MRD positive, a myeloablative conditioning regimen will be utilized, also followed by blinatumomab. This multi-institutional pilot study will be limited to 25 (estimated 10-15 per stratum) evaluable children, adolescents and young adults with B-ALL, that have experienced a relapse or have high-risk disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Alpha/Beta T-cell and B-cell depleted HCT and Blinatumomab in people with B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and B-cell Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Medical College of Wisconsin 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 14 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2021. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Meredith Beversdorf, RN (414-266-5891, mbeversdorf@chw.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of patients who are able to receive the blinatumomab infusion [Feasibility] (time frame: Day +100 post-HCT). 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 NCT04746209, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 17 Sep 2021.
