Brief Summary
The rationale of the study is to explore the safety and efficacy of ofatumumab in combination with dexamethasone (O-dex regimen) in patients with refractory/relapsed CLL. Moreover, the hypothesis is that this approach will be able to achieve at least the same response rates compared with R-dex regimens (historical controls; manuscript submitted to Leukemia), while maintaining lower toxicity profile.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Overall response rate (complete remission - CR, CRi; partial remission - PR)
The response (CR, CRi, PR rates) will be assessed at the end of therapy of every patient according to international guideline.
Up to Week 24
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Safety profile of the combination of ofatumumab and dexamethasone
Up to Week 24
Time dependent parameters: progression-free survival (PFS); overall survival (OS).
Year 3 after treatment completion
Study Arms (1)
Ofatumumab plus dexamethasone
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Dose and schedule Cycle 1: Ofatumumab: 300 mg as an i.v. infusion on day 1 of the cycle; Ofatumumab: 2000 mg as an i.v. infusion on days 8, 15, 22; Dexamethasone: 40 mg/day p.o., days 1-4 and 15-18 Cycles 2 to 6 (cycles every 28 days): Ofatumumab: 1000 mg i.v. infusion on day 1, 8, 15 and 22 of the cycle; Dexamethasone: 40 mg/day p.o., days 1-4 and 15-18
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female previously treated patients with B-cell CLL requiring therapy according to the revised NCI criteria (including CLL patients with immune-mediated hemolysis or thrombocytopenia).
- Flow cytometry confirmation of CLL immunophenotype with CD5, CD19, CD20, CD23, CD79b, and surface Ig at screening.
- Disease recurrence (or refractory disease) after at least one fludarabine-containing regimen, or after at least two previous chemotherapy regimens without fludarabine; and/or poor marrow reserve not allowing chemotherapy administration (Absolute Neutrophil Count \< 1.0 x 109/L and/or Absolute Platelet Count \< 50 x 109/L).
- Age ≥ 18 years old.
- Signed written informed consent.
- Life expectancy \> 3 months.
- ECOG performance status ≤ 2.
- CT scan performed.
You may not qualify if:
- Active hepatic or biliary disease (with exception of patients with Gilbert's syndrome, asymptomatic gallstones, liver metastases or stable chronic liver disease per investigator assessment).
- Treatment with any known non-marketed drug substance or experimental therapy within 5 terminal half lives or 4 weeks prior to enrollment, whichever is longer, or currently participating in any other interventional clinical study.
- Other past or current malignancy. Subjects who have been free of malignancy for at least 5 years, or have a history of completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer, or successfully treated in situ carcinoma are eligible.
- Prior treatment with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody or alemtuzumab within 3 months prior to start of therapy.
- Chronic or current infectious disease requiring systemic antibiotics, antifungal, or antiviral treatment such as, but not limited to, chronic renal infection, chronic chest infection with bronchiectasis, tuberculosis and active Hepatitis C.
- History of significant cerebrovascular disease in the past 6 months or ongoing event with active symptoms or sequelae.
- Known HIV positive.
- Clinically significant cardiac disease including unstable angina, acute myocardial infarction within six months prior to randomization, congestive heart failure (NYHA III-IV), and arrhythmia unless controlled by therapy, with the exception of extra systoles or minor conduction abnormalities.
- Significant concurrent, uncontrolled medical condition including, but not limited to, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, neurological, cerebral or psychiatric disease which in the opinion of the investigator may represent a risk for the patient.
- Positive serology for Hepatitis B (HBV) defined as a positive test for HBsAg. In addition, if negative for HBsAg but HBcAb positive (regardless of HBsAb status), a HBV DNA test will be performed and if positive the subject will be excluded. See section 10.3.2.1 Hepatitis B screening.
- Positive serology for hepatitis C (HCV) defined as a positive test for anti-HCVAb, in which case reflexively perform a HCV RIBA immunoblot assay on the same sample to confirm the result
- Screening laboratory values:
- creatinine \> 2.0 times upper normal limit
- total bilirubin \>1.5 times upper normal limit (unless due to CLL involvement of liver or a known history of Gilbert's disease)
- ALT \> 2.5 times upper normal limit (unless due to disease involvement of liver)
- +4 more criteria
