NCT05791409

Brief Summary

In this study, efficacy and safety of 2 regimens that combine the CD3-CD20 T cell engager epcoritamab with venetoclax will be tested in relapsed/refractory CLL and SLL patients. The trial starts with phase I part to establish the recommended dose level (RDL) of epcoritamab in the combination with venetoclax for the phase II trial.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • • Recommended phase II dose (RP2D) for the combination of venetoclax and epcoritamab based on dose limiting toxicity (DLT)

    endpoint for phase I and both arms

    6-12 months

  • • Undetectable minimal residual disease <10-4 (uMRD) in BM in absence of progression according to IWCLL criteria at 12 weeks after cycle 26

    endpoint for phase II and both arms

    29 months

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • • Minimal residual disease (MRD) status in PB at cycle 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 and 12 weeks after cycle 26; following treatment: every 3 months for the first year, then every 6 months until relapse or until 6 years after registration

    6 years

  • • Progression free survival (PFS), defined as time from registration to the first occurrence of disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

    6 years

  • Overall survival (OS), defined as the time from registration to death from any cause.

    6 years

  • Best overall response rate (ORR) defined as the proportion of patients with a complete response (CR), complete response with incomplete marrow recovery (CRi), or partial response (PR) according to IWCLL 2018 criteria.

    6 years

  • • Event free survival (EFS), defined as time from randomization to date start of next CLL treatment, progression or death, whichever comes first.

    6 years

  • +9 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Arm A

EXPERIMENTAL

6 cycles epcoritamab + 26 cycles venetoclax

Drug: EpcoritamabDrug: Venetoclax

Arm B

EXPERIMENTAL

12 cycles epcoritamab + 26 cycles venetoclax

Drug: EpcoritamabDrug: Venetoclax

Interventions

Number of cycles of epcoritamab is either 6 (cycle 1-6) or 12 (cycle 1-12). Patients will be treated until they have received the total number of assigned treatment cycles or until progression, or severe toxicity, whichever comes first.

Arm AArm B

All patients will receive venetoclax cycle 1-26 (a 5 week ramp-up of venetoclax will precede the first cycle). Patients will be treated until they have received the total number of assigned treatment cycles or until progression, or severe toxicity, whichever comes first.

Arm AArm B

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Documented relapsed or refractory CLL or SLL (SLL in phase II part only) following at least one systemic 1st-line treatment
  • Requiring treatment according to IWCLL criteria (appendix A);
  • Age at least 18 years;
  • ECOG/WHO performance status 0-2;
  • In case of prior venetoclax treatment, enrollment can only occur at least 24 months after end of treatment and patients must not have progressed during venetoclax treatment;
  • Adequate BM function defined as:
  • Hemoglobin \>5.6 mmol/l or Hb \> 9 g/dL, unless low Hb is directly attributable to CLL infiltration of the BM, proven by BM biopsy;
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1.0 x 109/L (1,000/μL), unless low ANC is directly attributable to CLL infiltration of the BM, proven by BM biopsy;
  • Platelet count \>30 x 109/L (30,000/μL), unless low platelets is directly attributable to CLL infiltration in the BM;
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) (MDRD) or estimated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥ 50ml/min (Cockcroft-Gault appendix F);
  • Adequate liver function as indicated:
  • Serum aspartate transaminase (ASAT) and alanine transaminase (ALAT) ≤ 3.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • Bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN (unless bilirubin rise is due to Gilbert's syndrome or controlled autoimmune hemolytic anemia);
  • Prothrombin time (PT)/International normal ratio (INR) \<1.5x ULN and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) \<1.5 x ULN; unless receiving anticoagulation;
  • Negative serological testing for hepatitis B virus (HBV) (Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative and hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc) negative) and hepatitis C virus (hepatitis C antibody). Patients who are positive for anti-HBc or hepatitis C antibody may be included if they have a negative PCR within 6 weeks before enrollment. Those who are PCR positive will be excluded; Please note: For patients positive for anti-HBc, HBV-DNA PCR has to be repeated every month until 12 months after last dose of study treatment.
  • +3 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Active CLL/SLL directed therapy within the last 14 days;
  • Prior treatment with a CD3 × CD20 bispecific antibody or CAR T-cell therapy
  • Transformation of CLL (Richter's transformation);
  • Prior allogeneic stem cell transplantation and/or solid organ transplantation;
  • Patient with a history of confirmed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML);
  • Malignancies other than CLL currently requiring systemic therapy or not treated in curative intention or showing signs of progression after curative treatment;
  • Known allergy to xanthine oxidase inhibitors and/or rasburicase;
  • History of drug-specific hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis to any study drug (including active product or excipient components);
  • Active bleeding or uncontrolled severe bleeding diathesis (e.g., hemophilia or severe von Willebrand disease);
  • Active fungal, bacterial, and/or viral infection CTCAEgrade \> 1; Please note: active controlled as well as chronic/recurrent infections are at risk of reactivation/infection during treatment;
  • Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical condition (e.g. uncontrolled: infection, auto-immune hemolysis, immune thrombocytopenia, diabetes, hypertension, hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism etc.);
  • Patient known to be HIV-positive;
  • Patient requiring treatment with a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A inhibitor/inducer (see appendix J) or anticoagulant therapy with warfarin or phenoprocoumon or other vitamin K antagonists;
  • CTCAE grade III-IV cardiovascular disease including but not limited to:
  • Unstable or uncontrolled disease/condition related to or affecting cardiac function, eg, unstable angina, congestive heart failure grade III or IV as classified by the New York Heart Association (see appendix E), uncontrolled clinically significant cardiac arrhythmia (CTCAE grade II or higher), or clinically significant electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities.
