Description

Summary

This phase II trial studies the effect of nivolumab in combination with blinatumomab compared to blinatumomab alone in treating patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) that has come back (relapsed). Down syndrome patients with relapsed B-ALL are included in this study. Blinatumomab is an antibody, which is a protein that identifies and targets specific molecules in the body. Blinatumomab searches for and attaches itself to the cancer cell. Once attached, an immune response occurs which may kill the cancer cell. Nivolumab is a medicine that may boost a patient's immune system. Giving nivolumab in combination with blinatumomab may cause the cancer to stop growing for a period of time, and for some patients, it may lessen the symptoms, such as pain, that are caused by the cancer.

Official Title

A Phase 2 Study of Blinatumomab (NSC# 765986) in Combination With Nivolumab (NSC # 748726), a Checkpoint Inhibitor of PD-1, in B-ALL Patients Aged >/= 1 to < 31 Years Old With First Relapse

Details

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To compare event free survival post reinduction (EFS PR) between blinatumomab vs. blinatumomab/nivolumab in Group 4 patients aged ≥ 1 to <31 years old with first relapse of CD19+ B ALL.

II. To compare EFS PR (EFS post-reinduction) between consolidation with blinatumomab vs. blinatumomab/nivolumab in Group 3 patients aged >= 1 to < 31 years old with first relapse of CD19+ B ALL.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of blinatumomab/nivolumab in patients aged >= 1 to < 31 years old with first relapse of CD19+ B ALL.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. In Group 4 patients, compare EFS PR between blinatumomab monotherapy and blinatumomab/nivolumab arms as compared to similar patients treated on the predecessor trial AALL1331.

II. In Group 4 patients, compare toxicity as defined by grade 3 or greater adverse events during the first cycle of blinatumomab or blinatumomab/nivolumab.

III. In Group 4 patients, compare MRD negative second remission (Rem-2) rate after the first cycle of immunotherapy between blinatumomab monotherapy and blinatumomab/nivolumab arms.

IV. In patients with Down syndrome (DS) with first relapse of B-ALL, describe the safety, tolerability and efficacy (as defined by MRD negative second remission, Rem-2) after up to two cycles of blinatumomab/nivolumab.

  1. With each Group, perform subset analyses of EFS and overall survival (OS) based on features including degree of marrow disease at relapse, age, sex, body mass index, cytogenetics, site(s) of relapse, percent peripheral blasts at relapse and absolute lymphocyte count at first relapse.

OUTLINE:

Patients >= 18 years old with marrow +/- extramedullary (EM) relapse of any duration after initial diagnosis, or patients < 18 years old with marrow +/- EM relapse < 24 months after initial diagnosis are assigned to Group 1. Patients < 18 years old with marrow +/- EM relapse >= 24 months from initial diagnosis, or all isolated extramedullary (IEM) relapses >= 1 to < 31 years old are assigned to Groups 2-3 re-induction. Patients with DS are assigned to Arm G. NOTE: Patients in Group 1 and DS patients with white blood cells (WBC) >= 30,000/uL, CNS 2/3 disease, or testicular disease must first receive 1 of 3 pre-immunotherapy treatments.

Starting with amendment 4C (9/19/2024), patients with DS are assigned to group 3 or 4. Patients < 18 years with bone marrow first relapse ≥ 36 months from initial diagnosis with MRD <0.1% after VXLD reinduction or with isolated CNS/testicular extramedullary relapse occurring ≥ 18 months from initial diagnosis with MRD <0.1% after VXLD reinduction are assigned to group 3. Patients who do not meet criteria for group 3 will be assigned to group 4. Patients with Down syndrome ≥ 1 to < 31 years of age with first bone marrow relapse of B ALL are assigned to arm G.

PRE-IMMUNOTHERAPY TREATMENT FOR PATIENTS WITH WBC >= 30,000/uL (CLOSED TO ACCRUAL 9/19/2024 EXCEPT FOR ARM G) : Patients receive methotrexate (MTX) intrathecally (IT) or cytarabine IT or intrathecal triple therapy (ITT) consisting of MTX, hydrocortisone sodium succinate, and cytarabine IT at the time of diagnostic lumbar puncture (LP) or on day 1 (if intrathecal therapy is given with relapse diagnostic LP < 7 days prior to the start of protocol therapy). Patients also receive dexamethasone intravenously (IV) or orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-5, vincristine sulfate via infusion or IV IV push over 1 minute on day 1. Patients with DS also receive leucovorin calcium PO or IV every 6 hours (q6h) for 2 doses on day 2 or at 24 and 30 hours after each IT administration. Patients should proceed to the next cycle when CNS 1 and no testicular disease is present, no sooner than Day 8 and no later than Day 15.

PRE-IMMUNOTHERAPY TREATMENT FOR CNS 2/3 DISEASE (CLOSED TO ACCRUAL 9/19/2024 EXCEPT FOR ARM G): Patients receive MTX IT or cytarabine IT twice weekly (Q2W) for 5-7 doses or Intrathecal Triple Therapy (ITT) IT Q2W for 3-4 doses until patient is CNS 1. Patients with DS also receive leucovorin calcium PO or IV q6h for 2 doses at 24 and 30 hours after each IT administration. Patients should proceed to the next cycle when CNS 1 and no testicular disease is present, no sooner than Day 15 and no later than Day 24.

  • Female patients of childbearing potential are not eligible unless a negative pregnancy test result has been obtained within 7 days prior to enrollment. Patients who are sexually active and of reproductive potential are not eligible unless they agree to use an effective contraceptive method for the duration of this study. Men with female partners of childbearing potential should use effective contraception during the duration of their treatment. The effect of blinatumomab on fertility has not been evaluated. Blinatumomab is not recommended for pregnant women or women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) not using contraception. Females of reproductive potential must use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 48 hours after the last dose of blinatumomab. Studies in animal models have shown that nivolumab can adversely impair pregnancy. Thus, nivolumab is expected to cause fetal harm during pregnancy. WOCBP receiving nivolumab must continue contraception for a period of at least 5 months after the last dose of nivolumab. It is unknown whether nivolumab is present in breast milk, thus breastfeeding should be discontinued while a patient is receiving nivolumab
  • Lactating females are not eligible unless they agree to not breastfeed their infants. It is unknown whether blinatumomab or its metabolites are excreted in human breast milk. Women are not permitted to breastfeed while receiving blinatumomab and for the last 48 hours after the last blinatumomab dose. Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed infant, women are not permitted to breastfeed during treatment and for 5 months after the last nivolumab dose
