About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Extension Study of De-immunized DI-Leu16-IL2 Immunocytokine Administered in Patients With B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL)

This is an open-label extension study enrolling participants experiencing clinical benefit following 6 cycles of DI-Leu16-IL2 while enrolled in the Alopexx Oncology Dose-Escalation AO-101 study (NCT01874288). Participants will be permitted to continue to receive DI-Leu16-IL2 at the same dose, schedule, and route of administration they received during Study AO-101 (Main Study). Prior pre-treatment (for example, Rituximab) will continue as before.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Best Overall Response (BOR) Assessed Per International Workshop for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) Response Criteria

    BOR included complete response (CR), unconfirmed CR (CRu), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease (PD). CR: 1)Disappearance of all detectable clinical and radiological evidence of disease; 2)lymph nodes (LN) regressed to normal size; 3)other organs (spleen, liver, kidneys) that were enlarged before therapy must have decreased in size; 4)clear bone marrow(BM) infiltrate. CRu: must meet CR criteria 1 and 3, as well as ≥1 of following: residual LN mass >1.5 centimeters (cm) in greatest transverse diameter; individual nodes that were previously confluent regressed by >75% in sum of product diameters (SPD); or indeterminate BM. PR: 6 largest dominant nodes or nodal masses decreased by ≤50% in SPD; no increase in size of other nodes; liver or spleen; splenic and hepatic nodules regressed ≥50% in SPD; and no new disease. SD: less than a PR but not PD. PD: 50% increase from nadir in SPD of any abnormal node for PR or nonresponders and appearance of any new lesion.

    Measured: First dose of study drug until first appearance of CR, CRu, PR, SD, or PD (up to 20 months)

  2. Tumor Measurement: Percent Change From Baseline in Sum of Product of Diameters at the End of Study

    Sum of product diameters sums the product of the 2 tumor measurements on each lesion. If only 1 measurement was available, it was used as the longest length and the product of the lengths in the sum. Baseline value is the last non-missing measurement prior to receiving study drug injection in the Main Study AO-101.

    Measured: Baseline, end of study (EOS) (up to approximately 32 months)

  3. Tumor Measurement: Percent Change From Baseline in Sum of Longest Diameters at the End of Study

    Sum of longest diameters is the sum of the longest measured length of each tumor lesion. Baseline value is the last non-missing measurement prior to receiving study drug injection in the Main Study AO-101. None of the participants were considered evaluable in 'DI-Leu16-IL2 2.0 mg/m^2' arm for this outcome measure at the end of study, and therefore, data were not collected for that arm

    Measured: Baseline, EOS (up to approximately 32 months)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. An SAE was defined as death, a life-threatening AE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, or an important medical event that jeopardized participant and required medical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. TEAEs were defined as AEs with onset at the time of or following the start of treatment with study drug, or AEs starting before the start of treatment but increasing in severity or relationship at the time of or following the start of treatment. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

    Measured: First dose of study drug up to EOS (up to 20 months)

  2. Number of Participants With a TEAE That Was Considered Related to a Clinically Significant Hematology or Serum Chemistry Abnormality

    TEAEs were defined as AEs with onset at the time of or following the start of treatment with study drug, or AEs starting before the start of treatment but increasing in severity or relationship at the time of or following the start of treatment. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section. Clinically significant hematology and serum chemistry abnormalities were identified at the Investigator's discretion.

    Measured: First dose of study drug up to EOS (up to 20 months)

  3. Number of Participants With a Clinically Significant Abnormal Physical Exam

    Clinically significant abnormal physical exams included extremities, head, ears, eyes, nose, throat, abdomen, respiratory system, lymphatic system, and integumentary system. A summary of other non-serious AEs and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section. Clinically significant abnormal physical exams were identified at the Investigator's discretion.

    Measured: First dose of study drug up to EOS (up to 20 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing DI-Leu16-IL2 in people with B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, run by Alopexx Oncology, LLC at 3 sites 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 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 combined 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Nov 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Best Overall Response (BOR) Assessed Per International Workshop for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) Response Criteria (time frame: First dose of study drug until first appearance of CR, CRu, PR, SD, or PD (up to 20 months)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02151903, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 27 Nov 2020.
