What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs and Treatment-related TEAEs
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant irrespective of a causal relationship with the trial treatment. TEAEs are any events that occurred after the participant received trial treatment. A serious TEAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that: was immediately life-threatening, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was any other medically important serious event. Treatment-related TEAEs were any AEs that could be considered attributable to the trial treatment.
Measured: From first dose until 33 days after last dose of trial; median (min,max) overall duration was 107.4 (41.2, 190.2) days
Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events of Interest (EOI)
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant irrespective of a causal relationship with the trial treatment. TEAEs were any events that occurred after the participant received trial treatment.
Measured: From first dose until 33 days after last dose of trial; median (min,max) overall duration was 107.4 (41.2, 190.2) days
Secondary outcomes (5)
Steady-state Concentration (Css) of Blinatumomab
Measured: Cycle 1: Day 1 pre-dose, 2 and 6 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 29; Cycle 2: Day 1 pre-dose, and Days 2 and 29; Cycles 3 and 4: Day 1 pre-dose, and Day 29
Clearance (CL) of Blinatumomab
Measured: Cycle 1: Day 1 pre-dose, 2 and 6 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 29; Cycle 2: Day 1 pre-dose, and Days 2 and 29; Cycles 3 and 4: Day 1 pre-dose, and Day 29
Number of Participants Achieving Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) After Each Cycle of Blinatumomab
Measured: Cycles 1-4: Day 29 (each cycle is 42 days)
Number of Participants Achieving Hematologic CR
Measured: Cycles 1-4: Day 29 (each cycle is 42 days)
Number of Participants Achieving Hematologic CR With Partial Peripheral Count Recovery (CRh)
Measured: Cycles 1-4: Day 29 (each cycle is 42 days)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Blinatumomab in people with B-precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Amgen at 6 sites in Japan.
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 11 inclusion and 28 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 6 sites in Japan. 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 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.
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 13 May 2026). 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 Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs and Treatment-related TEAEs (time frame: From first dose until 33 days after last dose of trial; median (min,max) overall duration was 107.4 (41.2, 190.2) days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 13 May 2026.
