General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study was to estimate the incidence rate of treatment emergent and treatment related adverse events during treatment with blinatumomab in pediatric and adolescent subjects with B cell precursor ALL in second or later bone marrow relapse, in any marrow relapse after allogeneic HSCT, or refractory to other treatments.
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |

22 Jul 2014 |
• Addition of hematology (CBC with differential), blood chemistry, and coagulation laboratory assessments during screening/prephase, as well as on cycle 1 days 1 and 2 for the monitoring of TLS, and prior to the start of treatment in subsequent cycles
• Revision of eligibility criteria to be inclusive of a broader population of pediatric subjects with relapsed/refractory ALL
• Refinement of guidelines for adverse event and serious adverse event reporting to minimize safety reporting burden on investigators:
o Only CTCAE grade 3-5 adverse events, irrespective of etiology, were required to be reported
o Only related serious adverse events were required to be reported after the protocol-required reporting period
o Events from a prespecified list of expected disease-related serious adverse events were not required to be reported to Amgen within 24 hours following the investigator’s knowledge of the event |

21 Dec 2015 |
• To align regional requests into 1 global protocol, including changes that were requested by the EU agencies and that were assembled in a protocol supplement for the EU region.
• Additional changes included:
o An increase of the sample size from ~ 40 to ~ 80 subjects
o Implementation of the following dosing changes and changes in treatment schedule to be aligned with other pediatric and adult blinatumomab studies at Amgen:
Subjects with M2 bone marrow at screening will start treatment at 15 µg/m2/day and not have a dose step
The maximum dose administered was 28 µg/day
Hydroxyurea may be used instead of dexamethasone for prephase treatment
o Rules for infusion interruptions after CNS events and rules for treatment discontinuation were adapted, as well as some clarifications on premedication requirements for restart of infusion after interruptions added.
o Changes to the contraception requirements post blinatumomab in line with a request from the EMA.
o Overdoses > 10% were defined as medically important events that were to be reported as serious adverse events
o Lactation and Pregnancy Notification Worksheets were replaced with the current version
o Correction and clarification of some inconsistencies in the protocol
o The definition of complete response was updated in Appendix E of the SAP
o Appendix H of the SAP Pregnancy and Contraceptive Guidelines were added. |

20 Apr 2016 |
• Added sections to the protocol to align with recent updates to the protocol template (v13).
• Section 6.2.1 dosage language changed to set limits on daily dosing of blinatumomab. Rationale: Previously, dosage was based on BSA without an upper limit; change reflects an upper limit regardless of BSA, cytomorphology, or immunophenotype.
• Updated contraceptive language to align with the recent ICF amendment (v5) and changes to the Core Risk and Discomforts document (contraception requirement changed from 24 hours after last dose to 48 hours).
• Updated safety and safety reporting language to align with Amgen’s adverse and serious adverse events policy, as well as align with recent updates to the protocol template (v13).
• Updated the safety event form and Lactation and Pregnancy Notification Worksheets to current versions. |
||
23 Aug 2016 |
• Replaced all event reporting time frames from “1 business day” to “24 hours” per an EU request |
||
13 Mar 2017 |
• Updated Section 2.3 (Pediatric Risk Assessment) to include the most current number of adults and pediatric/adolescent subjects that have received study drug in research studies
• Updated inclusion criterion to broaden the level of blasts in bone marrow at study enrollment.
• Updated Section 5 (Subject Enrollment) and Section 7 (Study Procedures) to include the Product History Form for subjects who were enrolled in a previous Amgen blinatumomab study
• To align Section 9 (Safety Data Collection, Recording, and Reporting), Section 12.6 (Publication Policy), and End of Study language with current protocol template language |
||
07 Jul 2017 |
• Increased sample size from 80 to 100 subjects
• Moved the endpoint of MRD remission rate within 2 cycles of treatment with blinatumomab from the final analysis to the primary analysis |
||
07 Jun 2018 |
• Extended the long-term follow-up in the study past 18 months for pediatric subjects who did not receive a transplantation after blinatumomab treatment (maintenance therapy).
• Clarified the frequency and types of data that will be collected for subjects in the extended long-term follow-up group until they are 18 years old. |
