What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    Time from randomization to death for any reason

    Measured: 4 years

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Event Free Survival (EFS)

    EFS, assessed up to 48 months, is defined as the date from randomization to the earliest of (a) date of death due to any cause, (b) relapse after CR/CRi, or (c) treatment failure, which is defined as failure to achieve remission within 12 weeks of randomization.

    Measured: 4 years

  2. Percentage of patients who achieved MRD negative CR/CRi

    Percentage of patients who achieved MRD negative CR/CRi at month 3 post randomization

    Measured: 4 years

  3. Overall response rate

    ORR is defined as the proportion of subjects with best overall response (BOR) of CR or CRi, where the BOR is defined as the best response recorded from randomization until the start of new anticancer therapy or the data cut-off date, whichever is earlier

    Measured: 4 years

  4. Duration of response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the duration from the date when the response criteria of CR/CRi is first met to the date of relapse or death due to underlying cancer.

    Measured: 4 years

  5. Probability of patients who achieved CR/CRi at month 12

    Probability of achieving CR/CRi based on all response assessments between randomization and month 12. This outcome measure will be based on all randomized patients and the assessment will be up to 48 months (from randomization of the first patient until 12 months after the randomization of the last patient).

    Measured: 4 years

  6. Prevalence of immunogenecity

    Percentage of patients who have anti-tisagenlecleucel antibodies in the serum before randomization

    Measured: 4 years

  7. Incidence of immunogenecity

    Percentage of patients who develop anti-tisagenlecleucel antibodies in the serum after infusion of tisagenlecleucel

    Measured: 4 years

  8. Impact of immunogenicity on clinical response

    difference in response between patients with immunogenicity and patients without immunogenicity

    Measured: 4 years

  9. Cellular kinetic profile by qPCR

    Summary of qPCR detected tisagenlecleucel transgene concentrations

    Measured: 4 years

  10. Cellular kinetics profile by flow cytometry

    Summary of flow cytometry-detected tisagenlecleucel transgene concentrations

    Measured: 4 years

  11. Relationship between dose and response

    Relationship between the administered dose of tisagenlecleucel and response to treatment (complete response with or without hematological recovery). This assessment will be done for all patients for up to 48 months.

    Measured: 4 years

  12. Relationship between exposure and response

    Describe the relationship between the cellular kinetics of tisagenlecleucel overtime and response.

    Measured: 4 years

  13. Relationship between dose and cellular kinetic

    Describe the relationship between the dose of tisagenlecleucel actually administered and cellular kinetics

    Measured: 4 years

  14. EQ-5D-3L

    Patient reported outcome measure

    Measured: 4 years

  15. EORTC QLQ-30

    Patient reported outcome measure

    Measured: 4 years

Model description
This is a phase III, open label, multinational, randomized trial. Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to Tisagenlecleucel treatment strategy (tisagenlecleucel after optional bridging chemotherapy and lymphodepleting chemotherapy) or control arm treatment strategy (blinatumomab or inotuzumab per investigator's discretion after optional bridging chemotherapy). The randomization will be performed stratifying for the number of prior salvage therapies (0 vs. 1) and prior allogenic stem cell transplant (yes vs. no).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Tisagenlecleucel, Blinatumomab and Inotuzumab in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals.

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 9 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: 4 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Jul 2020.
