|
| E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | No |
| E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1) Male or female ≥18 years of age.
2) Diagnosis of B-cell CLL, with diagnosis established according to
International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
(IWCLL) criteria and documented within medical records.
3) CLL that warrants treatment (consistent with accepted IWCLL
criteria for initiation of therapy)
4) Presence of measurable lymphadenopathy (defined as the presence of ≥1 nodal lesion that measures ≥2.0 cm in the longest diameter [LD] and ≥1.0 cm in the longest perpendicular diameter [LPD] as assessed by computed tomography [CT] or magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]).
5) Prior treatment for CLL comprising:
a) ≥2 cycles of a regimen containing a purine analog (eg,
fludarabine, pentostatin, cladribine) or bendamustine, and
b) ≥2 doses with a regimen containing an anti-CD20 monoclonal
antibody (eg, rituximab, ofatumumab, GA-101)
6) Documentation of CLL progression <36 months since the
completion of the last prior therapy for CLL.
7) Discontinuation of all therapy (including radiotherapy,
chemotherapy, immunotherapy or investigational therapy) for the treatment of CLL ≥3 weeks before
randomization. Note subjects may receive corticosteroids to manage CLL manifestations
8) All acute toxic effects of any prior antitumor therapy resolved to
Grade ≤1 before randomization (with the exception of alopecia
[Grade 1 or 2 permitted], neurotoxicity [Grade 1 or 2 permitted], or bone marrow parameters [Grades 1 or 2 permitted]).
9) Karnofsky performance score of ≥60
10) Required baseline laboratory data (within 4 weeks prior to
randomization) as shown in the protocol
11) For female subjects of childbearing potential, willingness to use a protocol-recommended method of contraception from the screening visit (Visit 1) throughout the study and for 30 days following the last dose of study drug or > 12 months from the last dose of rituximab (whichever is later) Note: A female subject is considered to be of childbearing potential unless she has had a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy; has medically documented ovarian failure (with serum estradiol and folliclestimulating hormone [FSH] levels within the institutional postmenopausal range and a negative serum or urine βHCG); or is menopausal (defined as age ≥ 54 with amenorrhea for > 12 months or amenorrhae for > 6 months with serum estradiol and FSH levels within the institutional postmenopausal range).
12) For male subjects of childbearing potential having intercourse with females of childbearing potential, willingness to use a protocol-recommended method of contraception from the randomization visit (Visit 2) throughout the study and until >6 months following the last dose of bendamustine or >90 days following the last dose of study drug ( whichever is later) and to refrain from sperm donation from randomization (Visit 2) throughout the study nad until >6 months following the last dose of bendamustine or >90 days following the last dose of study drug (whichever is later). Note: A male subject is considered able to father a child unless he has had a bilateral vasectomy with documented aspermia or a bilateral orchiectomy, or has ongoing testicular suppression with a depot luteinizing hormone- releasing hormone (LH-RH) agonist (eg, goserelin acetate [Zoladex®]), leuprolide acetate [Lupron®]), or triptorelin pamoate [Trelstar®]).
13) In the judgment of the investigator, participation in the protocol offers an acceptable benefit-to-risk ratio when considering current CLL disease status, prior treatment history, medical condition, and the potential benefits and risks of alternative treatments for CLL.
Note: Investigators should consider whether a study subject is an
appropriate candidate for bendamustine-containing therapy based
on the number and severity of comorbid conditions; subjects with
a baseline Cumulative Illness Rating Scale (CIRS) score of ≤6
may be particularly appropriate candidates for this trial
14) Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, drug
administration plan, imaging studies, laboratory tests, other study
procedures, and study restrictions. Note: Psychological, social,
familial, or geographical factors that might preclude adequate
study participation should be considered.
15) Evidence of a personally signed informed consent indicating that the subject is aware of the neoplastic nature of the disease and has been informed of the procedures to be followed, the experimental nature of the therapy, alternatives, potential benefits, possible side effects, potential risks and discomforts, and other pertinent aspects of study participation.

| E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1) Known histological transformation from CLL to an aggressive
lymphoma (ie, Richter transformation). Note: Biopsy
documentation of the absence or presence of transformation is not required.
2) Known presence of intermediate- or high-grade myelodysplastic
syndrome (ie, subjects are excluded who have ≥5% bone marrow
blasts; karotypic abnormalities other than normal, Y deletion, 5q
deletion, or 20q deletion; or ≥2 lineages of cytopenias due to

risk of an infection (eg, influenza) that may be prevented by
immunization, consideration should be given to providing the
vaccine prior to initiation of protocol therapy
